Union Christian Church Plans
Barbecue To Show New Plant
BY J. W. HARWELL
Church members and friends
are proad of the fine job that has
been done at Union Christian
Church #in Oconee County. The
church focated three miles from
Watkir’fidlle just off the Eastville
road. e new brick building is
up-to-date in every respect. The
Sunday School rooms and the
basement with cooking facilities
are being enjoyed by good crowds
at every service. After the main
building was completed and cabi
nets and other interior work had
been . finished another job was
planned.
The bare red grounds, the drive
ways, and the area covered with
brush around the building needed
attention. A grounds committee

‘during wet weather, swirling with dust in dry
weather., Not an inspiring picture,
SRR TR
grounds have been beautified and eliminated is
the mud and dust. A lovely picture, and a trib
ute to the congregation and the friends who
worked so hard to make it a reality,
was designated. This committee
contacted the Oconee River Soil
Conservation District representa
tive and asked for assistance. This
was in early March. Plans devel
oped rapidly and with the support
of a large number of people defi
nite dates were set for the grounds
work to begin.
On March 23, this year, one and
one-half acres of the grounds
were cleared enough to permit
easy mowing. The areas were
plowed, harrowed, fertilized and
seeded to Ky-31 Fescue Grass.
Nineteen workers with tractors,
sye pair of mules, one jeep, ahd
‘with plows, harrows, seeders and
' many small tools worked for one
‘day. Many small scrubby trees
'were pulled out of the way; the
hard red ground was subsoiled;
driveways were laid off; one ton
of complete fertilizer was applied;
and 30 pounds of Fescue Grass
séed were sown. A new concrete
walk from the driveway to the
front entrance was poured., At the
end of the day the grounds looked
smooth and neat. .
Mulched Area
About ten days later the group
came with wagons, rakes and
forks, and mulched the seeded
area. The mulch was applied about
one inch thick to help hold mois
ture during expected dry weath
er this summer. The normal time
for sowing Fescue is in the Fall
but with a job done as well as this
one it was believed that a good
growth could be obtained with the
early Spring planting..
Rains have been favorable and
today there is a good growth of
Fescue' Grass on the grounds at
Union Church. There will be a
green lawn the entire year that
will stand plenty of light traffic
It is planned to keep the grassed
area mowed with a power mower

leaving the grass two or three
mches high each time itis mowed
This will help to maintain a heal
thy root system. A volunteer stand
of lespedeza has come in from the
mulch material that was applied.
This lespedeza will go out and bur
clover will be added this fall o
help provide nitrogen for the
grass. There will be no mud and
no erosion where a good stand of
grass is maintained.
The Soil Conservation Service
provides assistance through the
!ocal District to groups interested
in erosion control work on any
public grounds. Work of this kind
is of much benefit to our present
and future living.

Capt Jake Porterfield of the
Athens Traffic Division has re
minded all local townspeople and
students of the new city ordiance
forbidding hitch-hiking on the
corner of Lumpkin and Broad

a space 100 feet long, on Broad

dents desiring rides to five points
may catch rides there, Capt Por
terfield said.
All vehicles stopping there to
pick up riders must pull out of the
lane of traffic before stopping for
passengers, Capt. Porterfield
pointed out.

FOR EXAMPLE—Co-operatives, alone, do 17 billion dollars
worth of commercial business annually—make profits of close
to a billion. Other tax-exempts, such as foundations and trusts,
bring the total loss in taxes to the federal treasury to a BILLION
DOLLARS IN AVOIDED INCOME TAX. Every taxpayer
should INSIST that Congress tax the untaxed first before
increasing present income tax rates tO any present taxpayer.
