( 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 Purpose of the academy would be matched so as to give the plant to train law enforcement officers i just what it needs, prior to and after employment and j In present day farming, the real would include officers from all law problem is to know how well a enforcement agencies in Georgia —I particular fertilizer is meeting the I The Senate Government Opera tions Committee, acting on the re quest of Lt.

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 State Department of Education, Peace Officers Assn, of Ga., Ga. Municipal Assn., Ga.
