■;.- ;: : Sow wheat this spring. Many thousand more acres of wheat must be sown if New Zealand is not to face a grave wheat shortage, or to make demands on shipping and wheat supplies urgently required elsewhere. The need is now more urgent than ever since continued wet weather held up autumn sowings. Your local primary production council will advise you and will help you with your labour problems.

Courtesy costs nothing and makes all motoring safer and more enjoyable. Thoughtless, unmannerly driving is careless driving. Courtesy is commonsense, for courtesy will cut down road accidents. Proper insurance cover is also sound commonsense, and today, because of the N.I.M.U. policy of returning surpluses to policy holders, specialised N.I.M.U. insurance is available at rates which set an all time record for complete motor insurance value". i N-IMU ?HQ*THf IJLAN.D.
