Newspaper Page TextTh* Brantley Enterprise, Nahunta, Ga., Thursday, Oct. 17, 1963 TREAT ALFALFA THIS FALL FOR HAY NEXT YEAR Cooperative Extension Service en tomologists and county agents throughout Georgia are reminding alfalfa growers this week that they should apply heptachlor this fall if they expect to cut alfalfa hay next spring. Heptachlor is used to combat the alfalfa weevil, and Dr. C. R. Jordan, head of the Extension entomology de partment at the University of Geor gia, said experience during the past several years shows that all alfalfa fields must be treated to control the pest. “Otherwise,” Dr. Jordan stated, “hay yields will be reduced sharply and stands will be lost.” He said the best control measure at the present time is a broadcast application of heptachlor granules in the fall. Dr. Jordan called this me thod “easy and economical” and added that it gives near-perfect pro tection from weevil damage the fol lowing spring. He said a correctly applied treatment this fall should make the more costly and less ef fective spring treatments unneces sary. Recommendations call for broad casting 40 pounds of 2% percent hep tachlor granules per acre between Oct. 1 and Oct. 15. This will give the desired rate of one pound of ac tual heptachlor per acre, Dr. Jor dan explained. Farmers who are unable to give their alfalfa fields this treatment by Oct. 15 should use 30 pounds of 2'A percent heptachlor between Oct. 15 and Nov. 15. Dr. Jordan warned that it is neces sary to observe these exact dosages and time limitations in order to avoid excessive and illegal residues. The entomologist said the granules can be broadcast with a tractor drawn fertilizer spreader or with a cyclone seeder. He urged farmers to be sure to obtain thorough, even dis tribution of the granules over the surface of the soil. “Skips," he said, “will result in weevil-damaged alfal fa and less effective control.” PRESCRIPTION SPECIALISTS Mi Uri r jii rig&r — । linn 11 T "r ' _ Ernest Knight DRUGGIST The Rexall Store Pharmacist Always on Duty 147 West Cherry St. Pbone GA 7-2254 Jesup, Ga.

Two Jailed for Making 'Nuisance' Telephone Calls Police of this area have begun a crack-down on persons making nuis ance telephone calls. Officers in Waycross have arrested two men during the past week. The two are now in jail awaiting trial. The telephone company alerted the Waycross police department that a large number of complaints had been received concerning nuisance calls involving vile language, deep breathing without talking when the called party answers and even threats on people’s lives. The other complaint involved plac ing long distance calls from a tele phone other than the number install ed in his name and charging the call to a number assigned to someone else without proper authority from that person. The police have been watching a number of suspects and the two ar rests have been made as a result of almost constant observation of these suspects. Ilie two men arrested were Johnny L. Vaught, 33-year-old Negro, who gave a Trenton, N. J., address and stated that he had been in Waycross for only a short time, and Jewel Armstrong, 23-year-old Negro of 981 Porter St., Waycross. Vaught was arrested Saturday, September 28, charged with cheating and swindling in that he used the name of another person in obtaining long distance telephone service. Under Georgia Law, this is a fe lony carrying a penalty, upon con viction, of from one to five years in prison. Armstrong was arrested Tuesday, October 1, and charged with using obscene and abusive language over a telephone. Under Georgia Law, this charge is a misdemeanor carrying a penal ty, upon conviction, of up to one year in the state prison, six months in a county jail and a fine of $1,000.- 00. Police officers in this area have reported that they will continue to do everything possible to apprehend violators of this type. BLOOMING CABBAGE Blooming cabbage in the home garden is considered an oddity. Ex tension Service horticulturists ex plain that it usually takes two years’ growth on the cabbage plant to pro duce a bloom. The cabbage is a biennial plant.

This Oct. 7, 1963. Claude A. Smith, Ordinary. C. Winton Adams, Atty, for petitioner Doc MAG Says By the Medical Association of Georgia “KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT IN CHILDBIRTH” Having a baby is just about the most important thing that happens to adult human beings. The prospective parents make lots of plans for their baby. If they’re having their first baby they “study up” on parenthood and baby care. This is all to the good because the more they know about their baby before he ar rives, the more confident and competent they will feel about him. Pregnancy in human beings lasts about 40 weeks or 280 days. Sometimes it may last as long as 300 days and when it does there is no cause for alarm. The baby develops in the womb, a hollow muscular organ. It enlarges as the baby grows. The baby is held in the womb by the constriction of the lower part of the womb called the cervix. As time for the baby to be born approaches the cervix becomes soft and thin. Shortly before the expectant mother begins labor she may ex pel a small amount of mucous streaked with blood. This is cal led “the show.” Labor usually oc curs within 48 hours after this. Labor is divided into three stages. The first stage begins with the onset of regular contractions of the womb and lasts until the cervix of the womb becomes large enough for the baby’s head to pass through it. During this first stage the muscles of the womb contract and push the bag of waters which surrounds the baby against the cervix, grad ually forcing it open. If the bag of waters ruptures before labor, the pressure of the baby’s head does this job. The bag of waters usually ruptures toward the end of the first stage of labor. If this happens earlier, however, the mother shouldn’t be alarmed. Ob stetricians sometimes rupture the bag to improve a difficult labor. However, the woman should tell her doctor if the bag ruptures be fore labor begins. During the second stage of la bor the baby is expelled into the outside world. In the first stage of labor the muscles of the womb do all the work automatically. But in the second stage the mother helps with the actual birth by using her abdominal muscles in rhythm with the con tractions of the womb. Near the end of the second stage the phys ician often deadens an area at the entrance of the birth canal and makes an incision. This pre vents tears and unnecessary stretching of the tissues. The pro cedure sometimes saves as much as an hour of labor. After the baby is born the incision is closed with sutures which don’t have to be removed later. They are absorbed by the tissues. The third stage of labor occurs from the birth of the baby to the delivery of the placenta or “after birth. This usually occurs five to fifteen minutes after the birth of the baby. Women having their first baby can expect to be in labor about eighteen hours. Labor usually lasts only about nine hours for babies after the first. Sometimes a "false” labor will occur during the last weeks of pregnancy. This generally con sists of painless contractions of the womb which don’t become stronger with the passage of time. The contractions are usually ir regular in timing, intensity and duration. They usually stop spon taneously after two or three hours. If the contractions do be come painful, drugs can be given to stop them. A woman in her first pregnancy should notify her doctor when her contractions occur regularly a bout every five minutes and last 30 seconds. In subsequent preg nancies he should be notified when they occur every ten min utes and last 30 seconds. Doc MAG says: Having a baby should be a wonderful not a frightening ex perience. Knowing what to ex pect will help you get through your labor and delivery with a minimum of apprehension and discomfort. TENDER CARE Sweet potatoes should be handled carefully during harvesting and mar keting operations. According to J. M Barber, Extension Service horti culturist, skinning and bruising the potatoes not only causes them to be unsightly at the market place, but may cause considerable loss due to rotting.

We are new in our community and are trying to decide if we should buy or rent a house. Some of our friends who own their homes say it it foolish to spend money for house rent when it is so easy to buy. A. Renting a house or apartment may be financially sound for you. You may not want the responsibility of home ownership. You may prefer the flexibility of renting. You can move when your lease expires. A mong other things, renting offers op portunity to become acquainted in a new locality and to gain experience in judging the type of house and community that best suits your way of living. The decision to rent de pends on each family’s particular situation, the type of home they can afford, what is available, and how much they can afford or how much they choose to pay for housing. Strictly speaking from a money standpoint, is it cheaper to buy or rent? A.

Today over 60 percent of American families own their homes, subject to mortgage debts, of course. Thus the old debate seems to be resolving itself in the favor of home ownership. However, the decision to buy for many home owners may not have been based on money values alone. Home ownership gives a feeling of satisfaction and se curity to many people which goes deep into the roots of human nature. It is doubtful that home ownership could be sucessfully defended on money values alone. In the first place, you are comparing dissimilar things and, secondly, in making a comparison long run and short run costs are ignored. The decision to buy or rent is usually made on the basis of needs and wants, not finan cial comparisons. Q. What foods are good buys in October? A. Cheese and potatoes are among the good buys “nutrition-wise” and they are good “go-togethers.” (This week’s “Buy-Lines” were prepared by Miss Lora Laine, head of the Home Management and Fami ly Economics Department of the University of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service.)
