“... After That
The Full Corn in the Ear.”
In the past 15 years, we have seen 2,412
young men harvest their corn. And some
are winners in the 4-H Hybrid Corn Program.
This harvest is only the beginning. The
good these young farmers do multiplies like
seed returned to earth. They influence state
agriculture. Hybrid planting has jumped
from 20 to over 93 per cent. Their output is
triple the state’s average per-acre yield. This
is an important accomplishment since more
acres are devoted to corn (and it has greater
dollar value) than any other crop in Georgia.
We feel privileged to join the Cooperative
Extension Service each year in sponsoring
this 4-H program. It is good to see crops
flourish. It is better to see our young people
grow toward useful maturity.

PLANTING SEEDLINGS
Most pine seedlings that don’t
live after planting are actually
dead before they are put into
the ground, says Extension For
ester George D. Walker. To
prevent this, place seedlings in
a container of soupy mud as
soon as they are removed from
the bundle or heel-in bed and
leave them there until they
•are placed in the ground.
No other medium brings
such consistent, profitable
results as newspaper adver
tising.

Statement Given on Effects of
Fire Ant Eradication Program
The Fire Ant Eradication Pro
gram in the south and in Georgia
has been the center of controversy
for the past few years.
Wildlife officials have been deeply
concerned over the possible effects
of the pesticide, heptachlor, on
game and fish populations. Natural
ly, the Game and Fish Commission
has also been deeply concerned with
the program.
From the very beginning, the
Game and Fish Commission re
mained silent on the eradication
program, because we lacked e
nough facts to judge the program’s
effe.t on game and fish populations.
Early in 1953, the Commission be
came one of the few sta.es t > insti
tute a research proje.t into the
possible long-term effects of the pro
gram on quail and songbird popu
lations.
The unsolved puzzles of greatest
interest when the program began in
April, 1959, were the undetermined
effects of heptachlor, the chemica
used in the program, on wildlife;
whether or not aerial application i.
more destructive to wildlife than
ground application and, finally, the
most effective dosage to apply.
With these questions in mind, the
Game and Fish Commission under
took its project. Oscar Dewberry, a
wildlife biologist for the Depart
ment, was in charge of the study
and carried it through to its com
pletion.
The study is now complete and the
Commission arrived at the following
conclusions:
(1) That aerial applications of
heptachlor to control the imported
fire ant has no permanent effect
upon quail populations;
(2) That there is a slight decline
in quail populations during the first
year after treatment;
(3) That during the second year
after treatment quail regain origi
nal population and equaled popula
tions on untreated areas;
(4) That the treatment has some
detrimental effects on songbirds
(Brown Thrashers, Mocking Birds,
etc.), as exhibited by their change
in nesting habits and the fact that
they do not frequent the same area
year after year. This, however,
possibly may be due to the physical
changes in the habitat.
To determine the effect of the fire
ant itself on quail and quail nests,
the Commission ran several checks
on this subject and found:
(1) That the fire ant has little or
no effect upon quail nesting;
(2) That young quail were bo
thered only within the period im
mediately following the hatch. Af
ter a quail chick is strong enough
to defend itself the ants are no long
er a factor in its survival.
(3) That adult birds are not bo
thered by the ants;
(4) That fire ants are unable to
penetrate and destroy quail eggs.
As long as the shell remains intact
the ants are unable to cut them;
(5) That fire ants do destroy the
tissues of dead birds, but only after
the bird has died from natural or
other causes.

All Roads Lead to National 4-H Club Congress
BIG 4-H DELEGATION COMES
FROM 50 STATES ANO ABROAD
FOR WEEK OF MEMORABLE EVENTS
An estimated 1,500 of the
nation's best 4-H youths travel
to Chicago right after Thanks
giving to participate in the 41st
National 4-H Club Congress.
They are joined by 500 4-H Club
leaders, educators, business
officials and guests from abroad.
The congress convenes on
Sunday, November 25, in the
Grand Ballroom of the Conrad
Hilton Hotel, headquarters for
the week-long event. But dele
gates begin to arrive as early
as Friday. They travel by bus,
plane, train, and come from all
50 states, Puerto Rico and a
dozen foreign’countries.
Keynoter at the Sunday after
noon session is a former 4-H
Club member, and one who this
year is honored nationally as a
4-H alumnus. He is the Honor
able Buford E. Ellington, gover
nor of Tennessee.
“Citizenship in Action” is the
1962 congress theme. The prin
ciple speaker on the theme is
Dr. Glenn Olds,~presidaiit'of
Springfield College (Massachu
setts).
Also talking on the subject is |
and Fish personnel that the areas
used in our research work are now
re-infested with fire ants.
Since the completion of the proj
ect, ’ the treatment method has
changed and another chemical,
Mirex, is now used to eradicate fire
ants in Georgia.
But, as of today, almost all of the
land area treated in the state has
been treated with heptachlor, the
chemical studied in our research
project.
The Game and Fish Commission
does not know the effects of Mirex
on game populations. However, we
intend to continue our investigations
and will have a comment on this
new pesticide when we have un
covered enough facts.
