Take a Tempest out on the highway and put it through
its paces. This car is a whiz at moving into fast-stepping
company on an expressway. Takes you from a standing
start to a safe operating speed in seconds . . . gets you up
a steep hill in high gear.
Run the Tempest over the roughest road you can find. It
rides like the big ones because it’s balanced! The engine’s
up front—the transmission’s in the rear. And it’s got
independent suspension at all four wheels. Tires dig in
firm on curves and turns. Full 15-inch wheels make car
look big. Tires last. Brakes run cooler.
Before it hit the market, Tempest had 3,000,000 miles of
testing by engineers, pro drivers and a team of teenagers.
Its reliability checked out 100%. Owners have rolled up
millions more. The only kick is the one it puts back in
driving. Try it!

Our consolation to those of you j

Corn Is Top
Georgia Crop,
Ag Men Say
Georgia’s corn crop showed a net
gain in value of some sll million
lover cotton and seed this year to
; become the state’s leading crop.
An estimate of the Crop Report
| ting Service Thursday placed the
। value of 1960 corn production at
I $99 million against $88.29 for
I cotton and seed. A year earlier,
cotton and seed had narrowly led
। corn in value $93.9 to $93.4 million.
’ During the year cotton and seed
| lost $5.5 million in value and corn
! gained that amount.
Al] told, the CRS estimated 1960
[ total crop values at $389 million,
•la gain of 5 per cent for the year.
। Figures for livestock, which for
■j several years has exceeded crops
■' in total value, are not yet available
> for 1960.
Livestock returns for nine
months, however, were well ahead
' of 1959 and comparable with the
’’banner year of 1958 when they
J totaled $416 million.
1 Should they reach S4OO million
,1 for the year, the state’s aggregate
I farm income would be in the neigh
-11 borhood of SBOO million-within
■ I sight of the billion-dollar goal
-1 set by farm leaders a few years
I ago.
•, Based on estimates, tobacco—the
1 state’s third corp in value—set a
i new record yield per acre of 1,839
i I pounds during 1960 and corn
11 equaled—if it did not exceed—
I the 1958 high mark of 32 bushels
.I an acre. Peanuts, fourth crop in
1 I value, set a new per acre yield
. I record of 1,275 pounds.
Tobacco outstripped the old per
acre yield mark, set in 1958, by
, I 301 pounds and the peanut turn
out aded 85 pounds to the old
. record.
The estimated 1900 value of the
tobacco crop is $76.7 million while
. the peanut figure is $57 million.
