Flood Retarding Dams Hold Flood
Waters in Settingdown Cretk
Watershed
Recently heavy rainfall occurred
in Settingdown Creek Watershed
Saturday, May 30. 8:00 A. M to
Sunday May 31, 8:00 A. M„ 3.15
inches of rain fell. Previous to
this rainfall, 4.36 inches of rain
had fallen during the month of
May.
On June 1 G. W. Bragg, District
Cooperator, on the Squattingdown
Creek, a tributary of Settingdown
Creek. quoted, “Squattingdown
Creek didn’t flood during the Sat
urday and Saturday night heavy
rain. Before the flood dam (No. 54)
above was put in and the channel
excavated, half the amount of rain
that fell would have flooded the
bottoms. This time we had no
flooding.”
Edwin Moore, farmer and store
keeper quoted, “Settingdown Creek
didn’t get out of its banks at the
bridge (Matt Bridge), those dams
must be holding the water back ”
Landrum Tallant says, “Setting
down Creek didn’t get out of its
banks through my farm.” Mr.
Tallant’s farm is located above
U. S. highway No. 19 and below
our flood retarding dams.
Mrs. Ralph Mundy with land on
Yellow Creekk says, “Yellow Creek
overflowed for the water got over
our corn.” Yellow Creek and sev
eral other tributaries of Setting
down Creek without a clearing and
snagging job overflowed in several
places.
Joe Hurt near Chastain Bridge
reported that most of his forty
acres of bottom land was covered
with water.
The overall work plan of Set
tingdown Creek Watershed calls
j for some ten miles of clearing and
I snagging and five miles of channel
] excavation to be done this summer.
! When this is completed very little
flooding is expected, except in case
of extended heavy rainfoll.

EXTENSION WORKER
PRAISES JEFFERSON
COUNTY FARM PLAN
The setting for the John Shep
pard farm in Jefferson county
| could insnire almost anyone to go
into the beef cattle business, says
Harold Gurley, agronomist of the
Agricultural Extension Service of
the University of Georgia College
of Agriculture.
j Mr. Sheppard has a 15-acre lake,
surrounded by pines, in the middle
of a 100-acre improved pasture,
I Md. Gurley said. Rolling hills
around the lake are covered with
Coastal Bermuda, Rescue, sericea
[lespedeza. Bahia grass nd tempor
ary pasture.
Mr. Sheppard uses oats, rye and
vetch for temporary winter graz
ing and Dianes milct for summer
grazing. The rescue grass reseeds
each year and provides excellent
winter and spring grazing, accord
ing to the agronomist.
The Jefferson County farmer
fertilizes his pastures according to
soil test recommendations. On
Coastal, he applies 500 pounds of
5—10—15 and 100 cr more pounds
of nitrogen per acre depending on
the amount of grazing or hay
needed.
The sunnlementary grazing crops
receive 400 pounds of 5—10—15
and 80 nounds of nitrogen per
acre. Lime is appplied to all crops
as required by soil tests.
In addition to his beef cattle
program, Mr. Sheppard has 26
acres of corn and 20 acres of cot
ton. He is a member of the Bale
and Half Cotton Club. He works
closely with his county agent, J.
E. Eubanks, in applying research
information on his farm.
Mr. Gurley pointed out it was
“a real insniration to visit Mr.
Sheppard who has tilled the soil
his entire life and who kknows
the harvest will be abundant when
the soil is supplied with the right
kinds and amounts of plant nut
rients.”

World Famous Writer Outlines
Need For Fearless Free Press
TALLAHASSEE, FLA. —Home town America's newspapers are
the last bulwark against the ever-lncjreaslng loss of freedom,
Philip Wylie, internationally famous author, tells Pat and Bill
Derus, right, pictured here following a talk at an annual scho
lastics award dinner at Florida State University. Deru3 heads a
Chicago news feature syndicate servicing more than 5,000
newspapers.
Ricky, left, who helped Initi
ate an unofficial much-publi
cized 1956 world air trip that re
sulted in a best selling volume
“The Innocent Ambassadors’’
hears her husband outline the
steps by which the large dally
press is losing its freedom as
emphasis increases on money
making, and less attention is
given to free reporting of the
news. Another Wylie book,
“Generation of Vipers" published
in 1942 was annotated this year
and reissued by popular demand
because of its amazingly accur
ate predictions of world events
and Wylie’s uncanny insight in
to human behavior and its in
fluence in shaping the great
est issues of modem times. It
is so thought provoking it is
required reading in many col
leges.
Objective of too many big
city newspapers is not to give
the news, but to peddle the
most saleable details of daily
events, Wylie said. Press associ
ations all over the world are
busy sending in stories to fill
front pages designed mainly to
sell issues packed with stories
to feed morbid, shock-hungry
readers. Factual news and edi
torial comment are outweigh
ed ten to one by intimate and
insignificant happenings of
questionable value in the enter
tainment world and sports, he
added.
It th js falls to the smaller
newspapers to prevent complete
loss of freedom’s f’ ’’ise,
which they can lose a < , nsy
line loses its franchise v.nen
it’s not used, Wylie continued.

elimination of slanting or color
ing, editors of these papers can
do the job their metrjpolitan
counterparts are shirking.
Every newspaper can he cour
ageous and free, he said, only
if its editor or publisher cru
sades for something that en
ables the publication to exer
cise its right to free ex-iression
and molds public opinion thru
true accounts of actual events.
Emphasis on worth of the
classroom over the gymnasium
or gridiron is a primary need.
Wylie asserted. Newspapers
playing up to circulation sales
demands, have sabotaged the
United States by loading up our
educational institutions with
muscle men. turning our uni
versities into entertainment cen
ters. rather than focal points
of learning.
Cheating and dishonesty in
class work and tests h: ; been
encouraged by the knowledge
that an athletic star commands
more attention and respect
than exceptional scholastic
achievement. Wylie complained.
This accounts for Russia's pres
ent gains against us in the race
in science rnd research. In Rus
sia, sports are purely profes
sional and have no connection
with scholarship. There is no
amateur in the Soviet Union.
Excellence In athletic ability is
completely subsidized. People
are cor.."' nntiy screened for what
they cii do, not what they
want to do. Then they are as
signed to work without regard
to their feelings, as everything
is state ordered. This can be
prevented here by an alert
press, Wylie concluded.
