HELP CONSERVE RUBBER
FOR NATIONAL DEFENSE
good/year
PLUS mk A Jm RUBBER
MILEAGE mi g % CONSERVATION
ASSURANCE ■ V PLAN
The best way to conserve rubber is to make your
tires last longer. Here’s how you can get longer
mileage, non-skid safety and blowout protection:
IDo not drive over 50, Tires wear out 62% faster at 70 miles an hour than at 50. Safe driv
ing speeds also save gasoline, oil, money and lives.
2 Check Tire pressure every week. Too little pressure breaks down sidewalls. Too much
pressure wears out center of tread.
O Make sure your brakes are properly adjusted and your wheels balanced and in line. A
wheel one-inch out of line drags a tire 87 feet sideways every mile.
I
A Rotate your tires. Reverse the direction of tires every 2,000 to 3,000 miles. We will be
» glad to do this and check your tires for cuts and bruises at the same time. This is good
economy and may prevent a serious accident.
CWe have installed a New Wheel
Balancer. Have your wheels test
ed today and save Tires and
make your Car drive better.

ALL OUT FOR SAFETY j
Let’s go “Ail Out for Safety in j
1942” says Major John E. Good-,
win, of the Department of Pub- !
lie Safety. Since we can’t have |
I brand new this year’s model ve-!
1 hides, we must see to it that we
keep the ones we have in as near
perfect condition as possible.
We must remember that even
if we do have adequate brakes,
lights, horn and “recapped
iti-es,” this mechanically good
condition will not suffice, for the
person in charge of the vehicle
must be “All Out For Safety to
get the maximum safe use cf
his vehicle. He must be willing,
to stay on his side of the road,
'drive slower and have his ve-'
hide under absolute control every
time he travels,
Georgia had a sad traffic ex
perience in 1941 914 persons
killed, an increase of 76 over
1940. Most of these person’s
lives would not have been lost it
they had not broken sane safe
drivingand safe walking rules. _
The Department of Public;
Safety would like to have you;
join with our Troopers in going j
“All Out For Safety” in order;
that we may “Keep'em Flying,
Over There, here and everywhere
the need lies.”

IDLE LANDS BECOME

PLANTED PINES
There are 19,000 acres of idle and eroded land
in your county which should be growing young
thrifty pines. Because of the vast drain of our
forest resources during this national emergency,
it becomes very necessary that we do not have
idle hands nor idle lands in restoring our forest
wealth.

For Five Million Farms
i
More them 800,000 tons of potash mate
rials for fertilizer use left American mines
and refineries last year for farming areas
where soil deficiency of potash—an es
sential plant food —is limiting crop pro
duction. About two-thirds of this tonnage
was in the form of muriate of potash
(60-63% KsO), a form highly concen
trated to reduce the Farmer's fertilizer
freight bill. Immediately upon the out
break of war in 1939, the American
Potash Industry began a rapid increase
in production capacity. This expansion
program is still continuing to meet the
demands for increased food production
