important steps are to determine
the right spacing for the species,
prepare land properly, and plant
the seedlings correctly.

for poultry research at the College

research studies of two important
poultry diseases coccidiosis and
omphalitis. Involved is a study of
field methods of preventing cocci
diosis and a basic study of the
causes of omphalitis. Nitrofuran, a
drug developed by Dr. Hess and
! Clark, Inc., is being used in this
research.
Conducted by Dr. W. Malcolm

ation with Dr. A. L. Kleckner of
School of Veterinary Medicine and

BASKET BAIT, NEWS
The Sugarhill (North Gwinnett)
girls were beaten on their court
on November 14 by score 63—35
with Shirley Roper and Jane Car
roll shooting 2, 24 points respect
ively. Joy Housley played the first
half in starting her first game,
scored eight points and handled the
ball well. Patsy Holcomb and Betty
Swartwood turned in good guard
performances.
Harold Whitt was the “bell cow’’
in the 42—27 boys win. Most of
the boys playing their first Var
sity game seemed nervous, but
calmed down as the game wore
on. Harold Whitt dunked sixteen
points.
In the first home game the local
lasses bumped South Hall girls
64—50 with Jane Carroll and Shir
ley Roper scoring 36 and 24 points.
Patsy Holcomb, Betty Swartwood
and “Elfie” Welch looked best at
guard.
Sixteen points is a good number
because Harold Whitt did it again
in he 46—29 win over the South
Hall boys. Larry Rollins and Led
ford Pruitt looked better and may
be ready.
Lilburn and Buford come here
for games on November 26th and
27th. Lilburn has anew coach and
a fine girls team and their boys
have always given us trouble.
We do not have any information
on Buford girls, but their boys
team has part of the boys back
who beat us last year, so that is
a good introduction.
A big crowd turned out for the
first games. The school and teams
are very greatful to the loyal fans.
It’s good to have a slogan, but
it is better to perform.
Cumming P. T. A.
The Cumming P. T. A. will meet
at the Forsyth County High School
Thursday night, November 21st.
We urge you to attend as there
is business of importance to bring
before the group.
MAKING DISHWASHING EASIER
Three hints for easier dishwash
ing are these which are recom
mended by Miss Hilda Dailey, home
management specialist, Agiicultur-
lal Extension Service. The hotter
ithe water for rinsing dishes, the
cleaner they will be. They will dry
quicker, too. Air-drying ddishes in
a rack is a method that will save
time. If dishes are airdried, stand
the silver on end and it will not
water spot.
GETTING HIGH CATTON
YIELDS
D. L. Branyon, agronomist-cotton
Agricultural Extension Service,
says results of the Georgia 5-Acre
Cotton Contest conducted for ten
years, show that yields are in pro
portion to plant population (or
stand), amount of balanced ferti
lizer used, and the number of ap
plications of poison to control in
sects.
TREE PLANTING—A SCIENCE
Foresters at the Agricultural Ex
tension Service say successful tree
planting is more of a science than
most people think. Success depends
upon choice of species, care of
seedlings while in shipment and
after arrival, planting procedure,
thoroughness of planting crew, site,
soil, and weather conditions.
FIELD FORAGE HARVESTER
USE ON INCREASE
Methods of harvesting, storing,
and feeding silage have steadily
increased, says G. I. Johnson, en
gineer, Agricultural Extension Ser
vice. The use of the modem field
forage harvester has increased tre
mendously. In 1948, only four per
cent of the crop was harvested by
this method in Georgia. In 1955
the percentage had jumped to 73
percent.
IMPROVED RURAL LIVING
Engineers at the Agricultural Ex
tension Service say it is impossible
to estimate the value of electricity
on farms in Georgia. Improved
sanitation from running water,
more healthful food from refriger
ators and freezers, family enter
tainment and education from radio
and television, all tend to make
rural life better and happier.
CHILDREN CRITICIZE STORIES
Family Life Specialist Miss Aud
rey Morgan, Agricultural Extension
Service, reports in a survey involv
ing more than 2,500 kindergarten
children several reasons were given
for not liking some stories. They
were too long, too old, too diffi
cult, or the pictures were too small
Teachers added “immature" stories
to the list.
Georgia Juniors
Set World Pace
By ZACK I). CRAVEY
Safety Fire Commissioner
A TLANTA— As 1 ponder holding
l\. another statewide conference of
Georgia Junior Fire Marshals next
year I am elated to learn as arc all
Georgians that our first such meet
ing, which brought together over 300
youngsters from every county in the
State at Camp Jackson last summer,
was the first of its kind ever held in
the world.
I had an inkling it was. So did
Governor Marvin Griffin and Super
intendent of Schools M. D. Collins,
my co-sponsors.
But no less an authority than Jay
W. Stevens, executive secretary of
the International Association of Fire
Chiefs, has made real that inkling.
Writing to Governor Griffin from
his headquarters in San Francisco,
California. Secretary Stevens says:
“In my association news letter sev
eral months ago I wrote that Georgia
is leading the way in fire safety and
prevention. I reinterated that well
merited statement at the National
Fire Protection Association conven
tion in Los Angeles last summer
“Now I am happy to derlarc that
Georgia has continued to set the pace
with its wonderful conference of Jun
ior Fire Marshals. ... To my knowl
edge this is the first statewide
assemblage of Junior Fire Officers
ever hrld in the world. I congratulate
you and your associates.”
Mr. Stevens also thanked Governor
Griffin “for the fine representation
of Georgia fire chiefs at our New
Orleans convention. They are a sin
cere, intensely interested lot of men.’
Colton Allotment
I
For Georgia Is
905,387 Acres
Farmers in Georgia will have
905,387 acres available on which
to grow their 1958 upland cotton
crop, according to John F. Bradley,
administrative officer of the State
Agricultural Stabilization and Con
servation Committee. This figure
represents the state’s share of the
national acreage allotment of 17,-
391.304 acres, announced on Octob
er 11, plus the state's apportion
ment from the 100,000-acrc nation
al reserve to take care of minimum
small-farm allotments.
The law provides that no state i
shall receive an allotment for up- !
land cotton for 1958 which is less j
than the smaller of 4.000 acres or j
the highest acreage planted to cot
ton in the state in any of the I
years 1955, 1956, and 1957. The
remainder of the national acreage
allotment is apportioned among
other states on the basis of the
acreages planted to cotton in the
years 1952-56. with adjustments as
required by law.
