planned soil testing program is
unsound, uneconomical, and fre- 1
quently wasteful. (
For example, a soil test will as
sist you in locating acids oils on
your farm. It will tell you the ph.
level of your soil. A soil with
a ph. value of 5.0 to 5.5 is too acid
for most crops. A ph. value of 6.0
to 6.5 is the desired level for
most crops. j
Unless the acidity requirement is'
satisfied thru the liberal use of
lime most plants will not respond
to their fullest potential regardless
of the amount of fertilizer applied.
Also it is just as important for a
farmer not to overlime his soil. ,
A soil test will tell you if your
soil is low, medium, or high in
phosphate or potash. If your soil
is low in potash, but high in
phosphate, you should use a 5-10-15 |
analysis fertilizer. You need more
potash than phosphate to balance'
your soil fertility. If your soil con- j
tains an even level of phosphate i
and potash, you should use a I
4-12-12 or 6-12-12 analysis fertili
zer. But if the soil test is low in
phosphate and high in potash, a
6-12-6 analysis fertilizer should be
used.
An ample supply of plant food in
the proper balance is the key to j
maximum production at the lowest
cost. Since the growing crop will
draw its total plant food from the
soil and from added fertilizer, these
two sources must be combined or

he will push for passage of the pro

Byrd asked the Government Op
erations Committee last April to
conduct a study into ways and
means of establishing the acade
my and to draft legislation which
would create the academy.
In a letter at that time to Com
mittee Chairman J. W. Claxton of
Wrightsville, Byrd said, ‘‘It has long
been my belief that it would be
advantageous to the state and its
political sub-divisions as well as
ithe peace officers if a permanent
|Ga. Police Academy were to be es
tablished.”
Selection of a site for the propos
ed academy would be left in the
hands of the Police Academy
I Board. Policies and programs of the
'board would be administered by
| the Department of Public Safety
and funds necessary to carry out
the provisions of the bill would
come from the safety department.
The Board also would be author
ized to accept gifts, grants and do
nations and property, both real
and personal for carrying out the
bill’s provisions.
The committee, in its report ot
Byrd, said it has received offers of
sites for the academy at Moultrie,
Griffin, Rome, Dublin and Ameri-
cus.
The authority to accept grants
and property would enable the
Board to receive donation of a site
as state property.
The Committee was assisted in
its study by officials of the De
partment of Public Safety, the

Georgia’s Vital
Services to be Financed
Governor Assurs
Atlanta, Ga. — As he enters the
final year of his four-year term of
office, Gov Vandiver says barring
some unforseen reverses in the ov
er-all national economy the state
will be able to finance its most es
sential services—education, health
highways, welfare, institutions and
the stimulation of new industries
and tourism — on an expanded
basis.
In a signed article appearing in
the current issue of County Gov
ernment Magazine, official publi
cation of the Assn. County Commis
sioners of Ga., the Governor said:
‘‘Funds now on hand will finance
the mammoth $412 million budget
adopted by the 1961 General As
sembly. the state is going to dip
into its record-setting surplus to fi
nance the current year’s budget,
which is the purpose for which the
surplus was created. In the last
fiscal year the state income was
over $395 million.”
Vandiver, in his by-lined article
said Georgia’s “state government”
has grown from a few basic de
partments, with low income and
budget, to a complex $500 million
corporation with almost four mil
lion "stockholders.”

Results Announced
! Mr. H. A. Sealy, chairman of the
'local ASC Committee, states that
the summary of ballots cast in the
cotton referendum Dec. 12th shows
that 204 cotton farmers voted in the
referendum with 201 voting in fa-
jvor of marketing quotas and three
! against. This vote was approxi-
1 mately double the vote in the 1960
cotton referendum.
Altho the official returns have
not been made available, the press
services report the vote nationally
was overwhelmingly in favor of
' quotas on the 1962 cotton crops.
Under the law, since over two-
thirds of the growers favored mar
keting quotas both acreage allot
ments and marketing quotas will
be in effect for the 1962 cotton
crop..
With quotas in effect on the 1962
cotton crop, growers who comply
with their allotment will be eligi-
, ble for price support at a rate of
65 to 90 per cent of parity.
