RAINS WORTH MILLIONS

ACCORDING TO WESTBROOK
Athens, May 15 — "Multimillion
dollar rain.” That’s what E. C.
Westbrook , agronomist for the Ga.
Agricultural Extension Service
called recent rains.
“It not only saved the parching
crops ni the southern part of the
state,” he said, “but North Georgia
cotton stands, hard hit by cold
weather, already show improve
ment.”
Mr. Westbrook urged North
Georgia farmers to make a careful
examination of their fields before
deciding whether to replant.

do more work per day . . • more work per dollar!
You save time in traffic. New truck Hydra-Matic
transmission gets you off to smooth, time-saving starts
without shifting or clutching. Imagine how easy this
makes driving in traffic and on delivery routes! It’s op
tional at extra cost on V2-, %- and 1-ton models.
You save time on the highway. New high-compres
sion power gets you up to highway speeds from a stand
ing start in less time, and saves you time on hills, too.
You make trips faster—and the new Comfortmaster cab
makes them seem shorter. It’s got everything!
You save extra trips, too. That’s because of the extra
load space you get in the new Advance-Design bodies.
New pickup bodies are deeper . . . new stake and plat
form bodies are wider and longer. Also, they’re set
lower to the ground for easier loading.
You save on operating costs. High-compression
power saves you money! The “Thriftmaster 235” engine,
the “Loadmaster 235,” and the "Jobmaster 261” (op
tional on 2-ton models at extra cost), deliver greater
horsepower plus increased operating economy.
You save with lower upkeep. New Chevrolet trucks
are built stronger to last longer and save you money on
maintenance. There are heavier axle shafts in two-ton
models . . . bigger clutches in light- and heavy-duty
models . . . stronger frames in all models.
And your savings start the day you buy. In
fact, they start with the low price you pay—
and they never stop. Chevrolet, you know, is
America’s lowest-priced line of trucks. And it’s
also the truck that has a traditionally high
trade-in value.
Come in and see how much you’re ahead
with America’s number one truck. You’ll like
the way we’re talking business!
