Do you ever wonder if the locks on
your doors are “adequate”? Here is a
test you can use to find out.
Open your front door part way. Then
push the botton or twist the knob that is
supposed to lock it. Now try to push in
the bolt that sticks out. (Normally this
. bolt would fit in the door fram if the
door were closed.)
If the bolt yields, with only the
resistance of a spring behind it, you
have the wrong kind of lock for the
door. Also, the longer the bolt is, the
more difficult it will be to pry from the
door. For maximum security, the bolt
itself should be at least one inch long.
If the locks on all your outside doors
do not pass this test, ask a reputable
locksmith about a “deadbolt” lock.
Remember, too — the best lock in the
world is worthless if it isn’t locked!

If low crop yields are a problem
for you, maybe you should talk to a
Gold Kist farm hand.
Here’s what happened for one
farmer who did.
His problem was with corn. He
was getting a low and inconsistent
20 to 45 bushels per acre yield,
depending on the rainfall.
We recommended that he install
irrigation (a $35,000 investment);
change to seed varieties with higher
yield potential; increase the plant
population; increase the plant food
rates equal to the plant population,
as based on soil test analysis; apply
a nematocide (Dasanit was used);

RICHMOND, Va.—Nancy Fulgham, 24, is back at work in a Richmond department store
and says she now feels useless “selling clothes to people with a lot of money.” Nancy, was
vacationing in Guatemala when the tragic earthquake struck, and saw hundreds of people

of the residents of the small town she was staying in when the quake hit. (UPI)
