When watering, apply an ade
quate amount. Some gardeners
water only the soil surface
where few, if any, roots are
present. In order to be effec
tive water should be applied to
a depth of 6-8 inches so that it
reaches the root system of the
shrubs. A heavy application
once a week during dry periods

i^v therefore, more effective
thki light surface applications
every day.
Be sure that the water moves
downward to the root system of
the shrub. This can be done
by making a 3-4 inch mound of
soil approximately 18 inches out
from the shrub. This reservoir
will insure that the water moves
down to the root area of the
plant.

Third Annual Honor Day, Friday

ACP BOOSTS WILDLIFE
PRACTICES, RECREATION
ACP cost-sharing assistance
primarily for wildlife practices
is being used increasingly by
farmers to provide benefits to
nonfarm people, Rufus Adams,
Chairman, Georgia Agricul
tural Stabilization and Conser
vation State Committee, said
recently. Such practices in
clude establishing food and
cover plots, developing or re
storing shallow water areas for
wildlife, and building ponds for
fishing.
The Chairman pointed out
that under this phase of the
Agricultural Conservation Pro
gram, 1964 fiscal year expendi
tures for cost-sharing with
farmers amounted to more than
$1.4 million — or double those
for the previous year.
In some areas, the program
has generated considerable in
terest among sportsmen’s
groups and they have become
very conscious of the extent
to which conservation-minded
farmers contribute toward im
proved wildlife food and habi
tat. For instance, when local
sportsmen’s clubs were ready
to release pheasants in one
New York county, they re
quested the names of wildlife
practice participants and re
leased birds on the farms of
these farmers.
The sportsmen have also been
active in encouraging landown
ers to take part in the program,
and they plan to help gain addi
tional program participation.
One club promised to ask farm
ers to plant at least 100 acres
of bird food plots in its area.
Chairman Adams reminded
farmers that ACP wildlife prac
tices thus benefit them in more
than one way. Besides improv
ing the farmland, protecting it
from wind and water erosion,
the conservation witk helps
bolster the income the farmer
gets fron his land by providing
additional recreational oppor
tunities for nonfarm people.
’65 SOYBEAN ACREAGE TO

According to farmers’ plant
ing intentions, reported by the
U. S. Department of Agricul
ture as of March 1, the 1965
soybean acreage may show a
sharp increase, more than off
setting declines in each of the
three other oilseed crops (cot
tonseed, flaxseed and peanuts).
Indicated acreage for the four
oilseeds is 52.9 million acres
— 4 percent greater than in
1964.

Committee points out that acre-
