>AY, JANUARY 18, 1862 mmmmmmmmrn THE NEWBERRY BUN — I'X int Showing ’52 Chevy Slated Saturday A brilliant array of smart, new colors, a richness in passenger compartments never before achiev ed in the low-price field, an easier ride and readier power response headline an impressive list of advances in the 1952 Chevrolet. Distinguished in styling and performance, the new Chevrolet meet in every respect the exact ing standards that have won the company its dominating position in the automobile industry. In 1951 Chevrolet sold more cars than any other make for the twelfth consecutive peacetime year. The models to be shown here Saturday are representative of eleven body types comprising the Chevrolet passenger car line for 1952. Again this year, the com pany will produce two series, the Special land De Luxe. Ranging from the ultra-practical business coupe to the swank Bel Air, the line affords an unusually complete assortment in bodies, appoint ments and accessories. In eye-appeal the latest Chevro- lets .present a balanced beauty of desifen. A new radiator grille, fresh ornamentation ad bright metalwork impart a lower, longer appearance. Bodies by Fisher retain the same spaciousness of a year ago, but more than ever before in teriors possess an atmosphere of custom coachwork. In the “har monic interiors” of De Luxe se dans, forv instance, two-tone up holstery is furnished in gray, blue or green. Instrument panel colors correspond to upholstery material. Chevrolet announces its body colors “the most varied ever of fered in the low-price automotive field.” As an example of the range, exterior options include Onyx Black, Birch and Dusk Gray, Emerald and Spring Green, Admiral and Twilight Blue, Sahara Beige, Regal Maroon, Honey Dew, Beach White, Bitter sweet and Cherry Red. Some of the most glamorous new colors are offered on the Bel Air. Two-tone interiors of blue, green, brown, -maroon and gray; black and gray; or coral and Smart, new styling and improved performance add further distinction to the 1952 Chevrolet Bel Air. In appearance, the latest models are marked by vivid two-tone color combinations and laxnrioos interiors that make use of fine fabrics and leather trim. Increased comfort through new engine mounts and modified shock absorbers and more re sponsive operation through carburetor changes are advances incorporated in all new Chevroletsi* Op tional Powergfide wiH carry an eatomartr choke. * On Display at Kempei* Chevrolet Co. Saturday, Jan. 19 white harmonize with the choice of exterior color. In exteriors such exclusive and dxotic com binations as Bittersweet and Beach White, Sahara Beige and Saddle Brown, and Birch Gray and Twilight Blue are among the options. Convertibles as well benefit by the new “Royal Tone Styling.” Ten colors will be available, in cluding Honey Dew, Saddle Brown and the strikingly new Cherry. Top fabric options have been in creased to five—black, blue, gray, green and tan—to complement the new body colors. Two-tone pass enger compartments make use of genuine leather and leather fab ric. To the passenger, the added riding comfort of the newest Chevrolets will be noteworthy. As a means of eliminating vibration in the passenger compartment, engineers devised a new method for engine mounts. Known as “Centerpoise Power,” this has in volved the substitution of three- point mountings for the previous mounting at five points in the frame. The new mountings include softer rubber members with great er vibration damping charactt&r- istics so that less vibratior/ is transmitted from the engine to the car, giving a softer feel. In creased stability in the driving controls is another advantage. Additionally as an aid to the comfort in the new cars, the com pany claims a smoother ride on rugged highways due to new shock absorber action. Greater resistance to the “pitch” some times induced by rough roads is also credited to the improve ment. Several modifications in the idle and the accelerator pump systems and the fuel bowl of the carburetor are responsible for greater efficiency in carburetion. Chevrolet’s popular automatic transmission, the Powerglide, which over the last two years has proved its value in the hands of more than a half million own ers, again is listed as optional equipment on De Luxe models. The performance of the Power- glide models will be even further enhanced by an automatic choke in 1952. This device assures top power efficiency by automatically controlling the carburetor choke in ^pcordance with engine load and weather conditions.

ELEAZER Clemson Extension Information Specialist MAKING A HALTER V # We have a tradition with row crops. And we know how to handle and manage them. But with livestock it is dif ferent. We are getting into that out' it entails many a detail about which we know little or nothing. The simple livestock chore of making a halter would baffle' most of us. Yet the experienced livestock man, the man who was raised with it as we have been with row crops, can take a piece of strong Manilla rope and in a few minutes fashion a halter out of It that really works. This job of making a halter has been taught to many of our 4-H groups by the county agents and livestock specialists. During the month of November Assistant^ County Agent Cousins of Rich land county tells me ho demon strated halter making to the 281 boys in his 13 4-H clubs over the county. And thus we learn the rudi ments of a new branch of diversi fied farming. KILLING ROOT KNOT ■ Root knot in many a garden and field often gets the soil to where it will make but puny crops at best. County Agent McCord of Georgetown reports excellent Results from the use of DD on a badly infested tobacco field there the past year. Mont gomery Williams treated his 6.8 field with this material previous to planting. Root knot had held him down to a half crop there be fore. In 1951 he made a fine crop of tobacco there, averag ing 1,698 pounds of leaf per acre. Full particulars for applying this material to field or gar den can be secured from your local county agent. ORDERLY MARKETING In Marion county they conduct ed an Orderly Marketing Pro gram for cotton last fall, ac cording to County Agent King. That meant that much went into storage, and was not dumped on the market! at one time. Hd states: “Some of this cotton has already been sold at a profit of $60 per bale above the market price at the time of storage.” When I was down there a couple of years ago King was busy helping push a local pro ject for a cotton warehouse at Marlon. They were hampered then by not being able to take advantage of the government loan due to lack of suitable storage. That was remedied then, and it has been serving them well since. LOOKING AHEAD All counties have agricultural committees. They have been meeting of late, checking on ac complishments of 1951, and set ting their stakes for 1952 in their long time program for farm growth arid development. County Agent' Jackson of Wil liamsburg reports that their com mittee set three major goals for 1952. They were—organize an artificial breeding program, get rural telephones, and continue stres of the “Blanket of Green” program. Such planning by local farm folks was started in most count ies about 20 years ago.* I can well remember our first meeting then in Sumter county, where I was agent. Most of the goals set down then, after long and de liberate discussion, and after di gesting many figures on the agri culture of the county, as worked up by Clemson, have been largely attained. One was more corn with which to build a livestock and poultry income. But that corn was to be gotten by higher yields rather than more acres. In fact our plan really called for slightly fewer acres. During the inter vening years corn acreage has remained about steady, but pro duction has been greatly ex panded by practically doubling yields. And from very little com mercial livestock, the county now shares abundantly in the livestock awakening that has come to our state. And with cotton, the leaders there t&en called for less acreage and higher yield per acre. That too has come to pass, and last year. County Agent Brown tells me, they averaged very close to a bale per acre average. Pastures and pine trees too were to take a lot of cotton’s lost acres in those early plans. That too has been rapidly coming to pass. And so It hap worked out in many counties. It is good to see local farm people get together with their agency workers and plan and work towards a better future. For experience shows that this is the road to progress.
