POLITICAL PU |Fred broDn By; Vernon R. Reddish County Agent Fertilizing Coastal Bermuda When should you fertilize your Coastal Bermuda Grass? Fall application of phosphate and potash is less efficient than Spring application. To be specific a recent test in Athens showed that Spring application of phosphorus and potash yield ed an average of 650 pounds more forage per acre than Fall application. The most efficient fertilizer practice forCoastal Bermuda is to apply phosphate and potash annually in April with nitrogen applied in four split applications in the Spring. Applying nitrogen in the Spring yielded 1450 pounds more forage per acre than Fall nitrogen applications. To determine the fertilizer requirements for your particu lar fields you should take a soil test. * * * Ag College Careers Day Set for November 10 Some 300 Georgia high school juniors and seniors are expect ed to come to the University of Georgia campus November 10 to learn firsthand about the op portunities offered by careers in agriculture. This will be the firstCareers in Agriculture Day at the Col lege of Agriculture. The all-day program will spotlight opportunities in ag ricultural, science, business and engineering. It is to be sponsored by the Alumni As sociation of the College of Ag riculture in cooperation with the Cooperative Extension Service, the Vocational Agriculture Ed ucation Division and the Uni versity’s Schools of Forestry and Veterinary Medicine. No matter what field of ag riculture or the board field of agri- business the student is interested in, he will be able to talk with professionals in the field about the studies and vo cational opportunities avail able. Registration for the program is to be at 9:00 a. m. at the Biological Sciences Building. Dr. C. C. Murray, dean and coordinator of the College of Agriculture, will preside over a brief orientation program be ginning at 9:45, and Dr. O. C. Aderhold, president of the Uni versity, is to greet the boys. The boys will then divide into several groups to visit different schools and departments for a look at the many areas of specilization open in agri culture. plenty of sunsnine. branches that are shaded too much will eventually die. This is shown by the few low branches in crowded timber stands. If too many lower limbs die while those higher up remain healthy, it probably indicates a need for thinning. By: Elizabeth W, Cooper Home Demonstration Agent LANDSCAPING IDEAS The landscape specialist says you should find out how big the plant grows, the color of its blooms, whether it’s evergreen or deciduous in nature, the ex posure in which it will grow best and the rate of its growth. This information should help the grower plan a better land scape. It’s better to get slower growth plants and have a little more patience, Williams be lieves. Some of the low or dwarf type plants won’t grow as fast as we might like but they are far less trouble when pruning time comes around. Some of the lower type shrubs that require little pruning in clude Dwarf A.zaleas, Dwarf Boxwood, Japanese Holly, Dwarf Yaupon Holly, Coton- easter, Andora Juniper, Savin Juniper and Garcenia Radicans. These plants go well with the ranch style or contemporary house. Tall, rapid growing plants soon grow out of proportation beside a low building if severe pruning is not practiced. Such plants falling into this category are Ligustrum, Elaeagnus and Chinese Photinia. I hope these points will arouse some questions you may have concerning good landscape planning. As you might guess, I am no authority on landscap ing but I would be happy to get the information you may want. We have several publications here in the office which outline the points I have mentioned. HOME CANNING OF WATER FOR CIVLIAN USE IN GLASS CONTAINERS Raw Material The water should be clear, potable water practically free from organic matter such as that obtained from a munici pal source. Preparation For Canning Regular standard, clear glass jars used in home canning are suitable. The interior and seal ing surfaces of the jars should be free from chips or etching. Use new lids. Wash the jars Lunch will be provided at thoroughly in hot soapy water Hardman Hall by Georgia Milk, and rinse in hot water. To Producers, Inc., and several Georgia poultry firms. County agents, vocational ag riculture teachers and county agriculture College Alumni As sociation members will bring the boys from throughout the state to Athens. Dr. Robert S. Wheeler, director of resident instruction for the College, heads the faculty committee handling arrangements. Hulan L. Hall of Duluth is president of the sponsoring alumni group. Just because a pine is ever green doesn’t mean its needles last forever. About this time every year county agents and foresters get calls from people who become alarmed because some of the needles on their pines begin to turn brown and drop off. It’s well to keep a close watch on the trees, but the ap pearance of a few brown needles isn’t necessarily cause for alarm, says Extension Forester George D. Walker of the Uni versity of Georgia College of Agriculture. He explained that pines re tain needles for two to four years. The older needles usu ally brown and fall off in the fall. If the needles that turn brown are those fartherest from the branch tip, or in other words closest to the trunk, and the ones nearer the tip remain green, most likely the cause is natural shedding. The time to become con cerned is when all the needles on a branch turn brwon, but even this doesn’t necessarily indicate insect or disease dam age. If the branch is one of the lower ones on the tree, the condition may still be the work of mother nature. Pines, he continued, like preheat the jars, turn them mouth down on a rack in three inches of water (the boiling water bath canner can be used for this). Boil the water at least 5 minutes. Heat the fresh water to be canned to the boiling point and hold it there for at least 15 minutes to kill micro-or ganisms and remove tempor ary hardness, which will settle out as precipitate. Filling Fill the hot jars to within one-half inch of the top with the boiling water. Sealing Immediately after filling, place the lid on the jar and seal. Processing Process for 10 minutes in the boiling water bath canner. Cooling Air cool the jars at room temperature. Keep them out of a cool air draft and avoid placing on cold surfaces. Storing Store the jars in a dark, dry, cool place. IN MEMORIAM Again the messenger of death has invaded the fold of our County, Georgia and departed darkened homes, saddened hearts and a bereaved commu nity. Sister Mittie Woodal to whose memory this is dedicated was the eldest daughter of Mr. Sea born and Mrs. Josie Montgo mery, and was born in Taylor County, Georgia, December 2nd 1865, joined the Methodist Church at Pine Level, Married Mr. Abner Woodal of Marion church and left in its pathway, this life September 15,1904. Too much cannot be said in praise of this pure hearted Christian woman, for in every walk in life in which her path way led she daily reflected that loftiness of character and gentleness of spirit, which were so beautifully blended in her own personality. The impression which formed the basic principles of Sister Woodal’s life in the several relationships of daughter, sis ter, wife, mother, neighbor, and Christian were wisely laid and deeply implanted by a Chris tian father and mother, and a- round a family altar, dedicated to God. As a daughter, Sister Woodal met the highest expectations of fond parents anticipating their wants, conserving their in terests and helping to relieve life of heavy burdens, and irk some duties, and the love and devotion which were so mani fest in her life to her parents only intensified the interest and love so beautifully illustrated in her to her brothers. Her life in the parental home, like the light of God’s bright sunshine permitted it’s en tirely, driving away the sha dows, by the light of her own sunny disposition, cheering by words of encourgement, and helping to lift life’s burdens by her own willing hand. Sister Woodal met the honored duties and responsibilities of wife, and the more sacred and might ones of motherhood fearlessly and unflinchingly, depending upon the God of her salvation for that divine direction, and guidance which would keep her feet safe ly in the path that leadeth from earth to heaven. These moral and Christly forces crystalized in the heart and life of Sister Woodal, gave forth power and fruitage in the community in which she lived, and the church she was a mem ber. She with the poet could ex plain, I love thy church O God; Her walls before me stand, Dear as the apple of thine eye, And graven on thy hand. For her tears shall fall, For her prayers may assend; To her my cares and toils be- given, Till cares and toils shall end. Beyond my highest joy I prize her heavenly ways, Her sweet communion, solemn vows, Her hymns of love and praise. It was in the church that her zeal received fresh inspiration; her faith strengthened and con firmed and her spirit made to glow with that fervence which shed a sweet incense all around, and made manifest, God’s pre sence in the power of his holy spirit. Sister Woodal lived well, and the truth of her living was veri fied in the hour of death; when the mists were swept away by the loving hand of God, and she was permitted to have a glimpse of those beautiful man sions prepared by the son of God, and which await the final ly faithful. The triumph of a living faith, the victory over sin, death and the grave were clearly ex emplified in the cruicial hour of Sister Woodal’s departure from this to the glory world. Thanks be unto God who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Resolved First; That in the death of Sister Mittie Woodal, Pine Level Church has sustained an ir reparable loss. Yet we mourn not as those who have no hope for though dead she yet speaketh, in the faithful dis charge of duty, in her songs of praise and prayer of suppli cation and intercession. These like the fragrance of a sweet flower will linger long upon our hearts and lives as a power for good. Resolved Second: That to the father and mother, brothers and sisters, husband and precious children, we ex tend the warmest sympathy of loving hearts, and pray the God of all consolation to comfort, help, shield protect and guide, in this life, and at last form them an unbroken family in the life to come.
