B. Ezell, who emphasizes the importance of keeping the trac tor in good working condition. The most economical performance of a tractor is obtained when it is kept clean, both inside and out, and when it is in proper adjustment, the agent explains. To keep its insides clean the tractor must have clean fuel and regular changing and use of good oils and lubricants. Proper at tention to the air cleaner' and the oil filter is equally important in this connection. A clean radiator is es sential for best performance. This is obtained through the use of clean cooling water & keeping of radiator fins free from dirt, grease, and trash. A clean carburetor in proper ad justment and clean spark plugs with gaps set according to manufacturers’ recommendations are other impor tant items on tractor care and main tenance. Not only do these adjust ments give the tractor better per formance but they greatly affect the economy of tractor operation through the saving of fuel. All of the necessary information on the proper care, adjustment, and operation pf tractors is given in in struction manuals that come with tractors when new. The best rule in getting the most from the farm trac er is to follow directions as given in the instruction manual.

RATIONING OF MEATS, & FATS STARTED MONDAY Newberrians entered another phase of war rationing Monday. Effective at midnight Sunday meats fats, and most cheeses went on a limited basis. To make a purchase a customer must surrender one or more red stamps from War Ration book No. 2, “A” stamps are now valid up to six teen points per -week per person. B, C, D, E, will follow in the order named, becoming good at weekly intervals. All expire on Ap ril 30 with the exception of the “E" stamp, whose expiration date has not yet been announced. Only “A’’ stamps are good during the first week of rationing, but stamps may accumulate and be used all at once along toward the end of the month. Grocers and butchers under the new program can give customers coupon change in One-point stamps valid if detached from the ration book. This was necessitated be cause of the difficulty in cutting meat into exact portions. Retailers may buy the meats-fats rationed items from wholesalers point free for the first two weeks of rationing, but must give the ration stamps secured from customers to secure supplies for the last two weeks. Retailers unable to secure normal supplies during the first two weeks who will have an adequate number of customer stamps for securing ad ditional stocks may apply to the Newberry rationing board for an emergency inventory allowance for the period April 12 to May 1. Retailers of meats and fats must register with the ration board May 3-4, at which time their allowable inventory will be figured. Farm-slaughtered meats and farm-prepared butter or lards will be sold under the rationing program and customer ration coupons se cured by the seller. These coupons must be turned into the rationing board at th e end of the monh. Farmers wishing to slaughter, sell and deliver meat must get a permit from the Department of Agriculture, ALTHOUGH NO PERMIT IS NEC ESSARY FOR PREPARING AND SELLING COUNTRY LARD AND BUTTER. Institutional users of meats and fats, such as hotels, cafes, hospitals and places of confinement will be provided with emergency certificates authorizing them to mike purchases. Industrial users of meats and fats must make reports to the ration board between now and April 10. wearable . . washable . . colorful— COTTONS They’re King this year!
