TREE PHYSICAL
Pecan growers wanting peace
of-mind might do well to give
their trees a physical examina
tion, says Dr. G. G. Taylor, hor
ticulturist with the Cooperative
Extension Service. The examina
tion or leaf analysis results could
tell the grower which plant food
elements are needed, how much
and when to apply them.
“My electric apartments in
Florida were so successful, I
thought of trying the same
thing here. But what really
sold me was Georgia Power’s
10-year service plan.”

Upkeep and repairs can really cut profits. And
ruin a tenant’s comfort and peace-of-mind.
So, developer Sam Hemphill decided to install
electric heating and cooling in 104 new units
now going up in Tucker.
“Today, people want greater comfort, convenience
and reliability than ever before,” says Hemphill.
“And electricity can give it to them. Naturally,
I’m pleased to be building something I’m sure will
rent quickly. And I feel secure knowing that
the heating and cooling equipment is in the expert
hands of a Certified Electric Heating and
Cooling Dealer.”
The service plan Hemphill has assures that trained
men will inspect his heating and cooling
equipment annually, and keep it in good operating
condition. “That keeps my profits level, the
tenants happy. And that’s what apartment real
estate is all about, wouldn’t you say?”

food.
Traffic Death
Rate Down For
First 6 Months
ATLANTA,—(GPS) Although
Georgia’s'traffic death toll during
the first six months of 1969 was
slightly higher than a year ago,
the state’s traffic death rate
went down from 6.2 to 5.8. (The
national traffic death rate is
based on the number of persons
killed each 100-million miles
traveled.)
This was revealed in a State
Patrol statistical report released
by Col. R. H. Burson, director
of the Georgia Department of
Public Safety.
During the first half of this
year, a total of 2,183,857 motor
vehicles were registered in Geor
gia, an increase of 168,031 over
last year. These cars and trucks
traveled a total of 14,175,347,290
miles, an increase of nearly 1.1-
billion miles.
“Naturally, we are pleased that
Georgia’s traffic death rate con
tinues on the down swing even
in face of this ever-increasing
number of miles traveled, and we
think it is a tribute to the hard
working men of our patrol who
are assigned to police the largest
state east of the Mississippi Riv
er,” Col. Burson said.
“But,” he added, “we are not
satisfied, and we won’t be satis
fied, until we can reduce both
the death toll and the death rate
in Georgia. This can be done only
with more troopers—enough to
adequately patrol the 90,000
miles of roads in the state.”
On the death toil side of the
ledger during the 6-month period,
a total of 817 traffic fatalities
were reported, an increase of six,
or one per cent.
