~~ Mr. Cox says urea
normally will do a good
job if applied at the
rate of approximately
10 pounds of urea per
100 square feet of walk
or driveway surface. ...
This quantity will nor- {|
mally achieve a good
melting of snow and ice
down to a temperature
as low as 11 degrees F.
And how will the
plants look in the
spring? Healthier than
ever. They will show
the effects of good feed-
ing from the nitrogen
derived from urea.
Homeowners who use
a nitrogen fertilizer,
like aero urea, can mix |
the product with sand
to give a more abrasive ¢
mixture. Mixed at the rate of 3 at fertilizer 10 100 ounds
sharp sand, this combination works best if spread at the rate of
about 50 pounds per 1,000 square feet.
And here’s another advantage. Urea itself is non-corrosive.
This means it will not cause injury to valuable equipment used
around the home. Similarly it will not cause spotting or discolor:
ation on carpets and floors when tracked into the home.

deeply into conventional

So, the speaker said, we
decided “if we can’t beat
'em—join ’em.”
Some changes have been
made at the local plant to
change the boys’ shoes to
lighter, more flexible and
perhaps more durable mod-
els. More than 100 styles
now are in the line, he said.
In the future, he sees an
increased interest ~ in teen

broadening the local busi-

the juvenile business.
