How did Mr. Williams make this
extremely high acre cotton yield?
He first took care of his soil fertili
ty requirement by soil testing and
then following thru on the recom
mendation. He applied 900 pounds
of a 5-10-15 fertilizer at planting
and side-dressed with 90 pounds of
additional nitrogen.
Insects were kept under control
with five early season applications
of insecticide and 13 mid and late
season applications. Timing the in
secticide applications was an im
portant factor in keeping boll wee
vils and boll worms under control
according to Mr. Williams. He also
used a sprayer which gave good
coverage of the insecticide regard
less of wind conditions.
Mr. Williams was well pleased
with his cotton demonstration, ac
cording to County Agent W. N.
Hudson who worked very closely
with him. Mr. Hudson stated that
this demonstration was a good ex
ample of what can be done in cot
ton production if all recommended
practices are followed by Georgia
farmers.

MONEY-SAVERS
Answers to 8 questions on car care
that Shell dealers often hear
Shell dealers answer thousands of questions every
year. Here are 8 that crop up all the time. The an
swers have helped many motorists save money.
They may do the same for you.
Note: New Shell X-100® Premium is the
first premium motor oil that leaves no addi
tive ash deposits. It fights four other inter
nal troubles that can shorten engine life.
1 What’s that funny noise I hear? All
cars make some noise. But be particu
larly alert for any squeals, squeaks, clicks,
or rattles that crop up suddenly. Could be
ance and can lead to engine damage.
That’s why Shell scientists are such
sticklers about knock. They even listen
for it with stethoscopes and insist that
Super Shell contain no fewer than three
knock-fighting ingredients.
5 How can I make my battery last
longer? Here are four suggestions:
1. Let your Shell dealer check your car’s
electrical system. Worn wires and loose
connections can drain power. 2. Always
maintain battery water to the proper level.
3. Avoid prolonged idling with radio
turned on. 4. Go driving! Long drives
help charge your battery.
anything from a sticking valve lifter to a
loose wheel lug. Ask your Shell dealer to
help you track down any unusual noise.
You may save yourself a big repair bill
later on.
2 How can I get more mileage from
my tires? Rotate all tires, including
the spare, every 6,000 miles. Drive at mod
erate speeds. Tires can wear twice as fast
at 70 miles per hour as at 45. Avoid fast
cornering, “jackrabbit” starts, sudden
stops. Try not to bang tires against curbs.
And check your tire pressure frequently.
3 Do I really need a lube job every
thousand miles? Yes — unless you
have one of the newer models that doesn’t
require it. But with any car, remember
that frequent lubrication offers your serv
iceman a chance to spot trouble before it
costs you a lot of money. That’s why Shell
dealers give you a bumper-to-bumper in
spection with every Shellubrication.
4 Can knock hurt my engine? Usu
ally it’s more annoying than harmful.
But persistent knocking hampers perform-
6 What does TCP do? Shell’s unique
TCP* is a combustion control addi
tive. The hot piston device above shows
one way TCP works. The glowing de
posit on the left has not been neutralized
with TCP. In your engine, glcfiving de
posits can ignite fuel too soon, wasting
fuel and power. Deposit on right has been
“fireproofed” by TCP. No glow — no
power loss.
7 How often should I change oil? The
American Petroleum Institute rec
ommends an oil change every 30 days in
winter, every 60 days during summer.
8 Why do my tires wear out on just
one side? Most likely cause: wheels
out of alignment. Result: your tires drag
against the road and wear unevenly. Un
balanced wheels can also cause uneven
wear and make your car shake or shim
my. That’s why it’s a good idea to keep
tires balanced and have wheel alignment
checked twice a year.
Now a question for you
Is your car giving you toy) performance?
If there’s any doubt in your mind, try a
tankful of today’s Super Shell. It contains
9 ingredients including a gum preventive,
three knock-fighters, “cat-cracked” gaso
line, a mileage booster, an anti-icer, quick
starting Butane, and Pentane mix for fast
warm-ups.
♦Trademark for Shell’s unique gasoline additive. Gasoline
containing TCP is covered by U.S. Patent 2889212.
