The Extension Service state goal is pastures that can
support 1.5 animal units per acre by 1965. Presently
Georgia pastures support only about .9 per acre.
When is the best time to apply lime
to pasture land?
County Agent Judson Cooper said
today that the ideal time to apply lime
to Bermuda grass and similar pasturs
is in the fall,
“Since permanent pasture plants in
this county grow mainly in spring and
summer, farmers should take soil
samples to determine lime and ferti
lizer needs of their pasture lands in
the fall. These samples should be ta
ken early in the fall season. This will
allow for the soil test report to be
returned by the Soil Testing Lab in
time to apply needed lime before the
fall season ends.”
The county agent said that usually
a delivery of lime can be made on
time in the fall. By applying needed
lime in the fall a farmer can be sure
that the spring growth of grass begins,
he explained. Lime applied in the fall
also will condition the soil so that
the maximum benefit can be obtained
from mixed fertilizer applied during
the winter.
The county agent pointed out that
most farmers have more time to take
soil samples in the fall than during
the spring and summer, If they take
the soil samples early enough in the
fall they will have plently of time to
include soil test recommendations in
their preparations for maximum
spring growth of pasture plants, he
asserted,
Dear Fellow Citizens:
Between now and Christmas, all citizens of tl.i- county will have
an opportunity to show just how much they appreciate their home town. ;
Have you ever really considered just how much the merchants and
business houses of Blakely mean to the people of this area? The
merchants and business people pay a good share of the taxes which
help to provide and maintain your schools, hospital, library and
various other city and county services. They contribute to the
various charitable organizations which make life happier for many
unfortunate people.
Should these merchants and business houses fail to prosper, they
would no longer be contributing to the ma'ntenance and growth of
your town and county. Their employees would have to look elsewhere
for jobs and this would mean fewer people to pay for the many services
we all use and appreciate.
Now is the time to show your appreciation for the fine public spirit
ed merchants and business people of your community. Do it by spending
your money in your own home town. Money spent in some other town or city,
or in ordering from some catalog will not help your community to grow
and prosper. Money spent at home will help, and what helps your community,
helps you. Resolve now to do your Christmas shopping in your own home
town,
If we can help you by providing the cash to do the job, we will be
pleased to have you call on us.
Cordially,

Liming Pasture
Lands Give Boost
To Grazing
Lime applied at recommended rates
to pasture lands will give an extra
boost to grazing and forage produc
tion on farms throughout this county,
said Judson Cooper, Early County
Agent,
To be effective, he explianed, lime
stone should be well distributed over
a pasture. “Be sure the lime is spread
uniformly. Criss-crossing the pasture
'with lime spreader is a good practice
' because it insures more uniform cov
‘erage.
- In preparing land for grass, Judson
'suggests that you work the lime into
fthe soil by plowing or harrowing un
til the lime is distributed throughout
the soil for a depth of at least six
inches.
“Liming soil is the first step in
‘pasture improvement,” he asserted.
“When lime is applied it immdiately
begins to correct the low pH, or acid
condition, of the soil which has de
veloped through years of neglect. The
lime sets up a chemical action in the
soil which makes such plant nutrients
as phosphorous and potash more
available to pasture plants.
“Proper use of lime will directly
and indirectly help pastures to pro
duce an abundance of nutrients, low
cost feed. This is what Early county
needs—greater volume of grazing and
hay crops expands, more vigorous and
healthier livestock will result. Conse
quently, this county will enjoy an im
proved agricultural economy.”
’ Lime is of primary importance in
the establishment and improvement of
pastures, County agent Judson Cooper
says,
' By liming pasture lands according
to soil test recommendations farmers
Ican make their pasture plants more
efficint in gathering various plant nu
}tricnts from the soil, particularly ni
trogen, phosphorous, and potassium.
L In Early county's Big M Pasture
'ngram, currest attention by beef
cattle growers and dairymen to needs
‘lnr calcium and other feriility ele
iments in their pasture soils will pro
ivide better nutrition and health for
‘cveryone in the county, the county
‘ agent said.
Calcium is the foremost element in
the Big M Pasture Probram, he con
tinues. Supplying this basic need a
long with fuller appreciation of our
county’s soils as the basis for good
health will enrich all phases of com
munity as well as farm life.
Balance Important
Element In Farm
Success Story
Balance is pretty important to
everyone, but Dr. C. R. Hodges, Al
bany feels it is especially valuable in
his farm operation, says Larry T. Tor
rence, agronomist of the University
of Georgia Cooperative Extension
‘Service. Dr. Hodges tries to balance
‘hills row crops, livestock and pecans
for best income distribution and then
balances his soil fertility require
ments for best yields.
Dr. Hodges 'has about 100 acres of
corn, 100 acres of peanuts, 68 acres
of cotton and 250 acres of pecan grove
pasture. He also grows 28 acres of
wheat. Livestock on the farm consists
of about 250 cattle and from 300 to
500 hogs.
Balanced soil fertility pays off in
top yields and quality nuts. He follows
a liming program so those fields
showing a low pH are “sweetened
up.” Fertilization of the pecan-pas
ture acreas is complementary to the
production of both grazing and nuts.
Soil tests serve as a basis for fertilizer
use. but Dr. Hodges admits he may
exceed the suggested amount at times
in striving for an extra yield.

A Thought for Today . By: Edsel W. Bryan
“Nine-tenths of wisdom consists in being wise in
intime ... .” Thedore Roosevelt.
Wisdom is something we all may possess in cer
tain areas and to certain degrees. Its value, aside
from amount, is largely a matter of timeliness, for
wisdom, after the event is of small comfort and util
ity.
To wisely assess facts, to properly interpret them
and to correctly anticipate the right course of action
is the province of wisdom—providing, of course,
it is timely and not a matter of hindsight.
