MITH'5 CUT RRTE DRUG STORE- 1212 Main Street Newberry, S. C. ' - . To those who eagerly await - their new Chevrolets Here Is the Latest News about Chevrolet Deliveries Everybody from factory to dealer is doing everything that can be done to speed deliveries to you Wa have been Informed by the Chevrolet Motor Division that the past month has witnessed only a slight improvement in the rate of production df new Chevrolet passenger cars. As a result, shipments of new cars to dealers for delivery are still far below the level we and the factory had hoped to attain by this time. In fact, through August, Chevrolet’s output of cars in 1946 was only 22.6% of the number turned out during the corresponding period of 1941. We know that Chevrolet is doing everything possible to step up its production totals—to ship more and more cars to us and to its thousands of other dealers throughout America ;.. and we know, too, that we are assured of getting our full proportionate share of the current output and of future production gains. Disappointing as the total figures have been—and despite the fact that Chevrolet was out of production entirely during the first three months of the year—it is nevertheless true that Chevrolet led all other manufacturers in production of patsenger cart during June 1946, and has continued to main tain its lead in total production from that day to this. I We shall continue to make deliveries of new Chevrolets to our customers just as fast as we receive them; we regret delays as deeply as you do; we thank you for your friendly patience and understanding; and we promise you a new high motoring experience when you take delivery of your new Chevrolet, giving BIG-CAR QUALITY AT LOWEST COST!

Let us help you to keep it in good running condition—to main tain its performance, appear ance and resale value—until the day when your new Chev rolet comes along.

Veterans Find Careers InJNew Businesses More than 16,000 veterans, dis- paying typical American ingenuity, have borrowed approximately $48,- 000,000 in GI business loans for careers ranging from turkey raising to road surfacing, the Veterans Ad ministration reports. A nation-wide shortage of preci sion gears prompted a Minneapolis, Minn., veteran to open a manufac turing plant that immediately was flooded with orders for $300,000 worth of gears. A former California cowboy who rode in rodeos throughout America and Europe capitalized on his know ledge of horses upon his discharge from the Seabees. He obtained a business loan to open a combination riding academy and school for boys. One of the smallest GI loans re corded, $28.74, was granted a vet eran farmer in Arkansas for the purchase of a harrow. It was ur gently needed to save a valuable crop. A veteran in Kansas City, Mo., opened an export-import business with, the help of a GI loan. For his representative in Italy, he chose his former first sergeant. A former colonel and sergeant forgot all about rank after their dis charges, obtained a GI loan, and opened a gunsmith firm in Boston, Mass. Both ex-ordnance men, they put the knowledge acquired in the service/to use, repairing and re building guns of every description.

Eleazer Information Specialist, Clemson College Extension Service FOUND TRICK OF GROWING ALFALFA For many years farmers in the central part of South Carolina have been trying alfalfa. Try as they would and prepare the land as best they knew or could find otU, the stuff was still short-lived usually. After a year or so it wold start to thin out and take “the yellows”. Experiments in recent years have shown that boron, a minor element, was the limiting factor in most :ases, and potash, too, was of far more importance than had been formerly attached to it. With this knowledge, County Agent P. B. Ezell of Newberry .s bringing alfalfa to the farms of this area. The Chamber of Com merce has provided funds for an alfalfa growing contest, and when I was there recently Ezell’s office floor was practically full of alfal fa samples cut from given areas of drying there for yield determina tions. Each of the first two cut tings in most cases were around the ton mark, and 5 cuttings are usually secured. From 10 to 20 pounds of borax per acre is used. I saw fields there that were 7 years old and still producing well. In the past, 5 years have been about the limit, and much of it went down before that.—The National County Agent, September, 1946. In talking with Mr. Ezell, the county agent, he stated that our al falfa growing contest had created quite a bit of interest. Several parties from other counties, have been in here to look at many of the fields of alfalfa that have been en tered in this contest and that others were scheduled to come in to see them. L. C.
