WHOLE-STALK CORN BERMUDA PELLETS ABOUT EQUAL FEEDS After conducting comparative feeding trials with ground whole stalk corn, pelleted whole-stalk corn, and pelleted Coastal Ber muda grass, dairy scientists of the University of Georgia con clude that each of these forages is a satisfactory feed for lactating dairy cows and that they are es sentially equal nutritionally. Each of the forages were fed with a high and a low level of concentrate in a continuous-type experiment for eight weeks. All cows received 3 pounds of long hay daily. Cows fed ground corn, corn pel lets, and Coastal Bermuda grass pellets produced 29.7, 28.5, and 29.4 pounds of milk per day, re spectively. Forage dry matter consumption values were 31.2, 28.2, and 32.9. Milk composition percentages were: fat — 3.93, 3.- 62, and 3.80; protein — 3.66, 3.53, and 3.69; SNF - 8.97, 8.85, and 8.93. Only the differences in fat and protein were significant. Results of this experiment were reported to the annual meeting of the American Dairy Science As sociation at the University of Ken tucky, June 20-23, by Dr. W. J. Miller.

Roadside Development Involves More Than Just 'Beautification' Roadside development involves much more than a so-called “beautification” program, the head of the Cooperative Exten sion Service landscape depart ment declared this week. T. G. Williams, Jr., of the Uni versity of Georgia said such pro jects need competent professional planning, else federal, state, and local highways could become cluttered with ill-planned and use less plant material that would be more unsightly than the bill boards. Taking note of the growing in terest in “a landscape program for the highways of America,” Mr. Williams said caution should be exercised to see that the job is not overdone. All the proposals — removing billboards, anti-litter campaigns, planting trees and shrubs, scenic overlooks, adequate slopes for sodding, leaving groups of native trees, and others—have merit, he continued. “But perhaps a com bination of several of these might be the right answer to more effi cient, safe, and attractive high ways.” The landscape architect said a major purpose of highway land scape programs is to relieve mo notony and fatigue of long stretches of paving. “Lack of changing roadside views can lull drivers to sleep.” Mr. Williams recommended at tractive groups of native trees and shrubs; open vistas of pas tures, lakes, and fields; rest stops, and scenic overlooks as means of keeping them happily awake. He pointed out that the state has an abundance of beautiful natural scenery from the rugged mountains of North Georgia, through the rolling orchards and pastures of Middle Georgia, to level croplands of South Georgia. “Emphasis should be placed on opening up these vistas to motor ists rather than lining up trees and shrubs along the sides of the highway,” Mr. Williams suggest ed. “Sometimes the best land scape work that can be done is removing inferior or crowded plants to provide a good view of the attractive countryside,” he declared.

MD NEVER DUMP ABOARD/ Big summer deals plus excise tax cut equals big savings 'Buy Lines' FOR GEORGIA CONSUMERS Q. Is milk fattening? A. No food is ever properly des cribed as being fattening or not fattening. Weight is determined by the difference between the to tal calories eaten and the amount "burned” by the body. Excesses are stored as fat. The high nutri tive value of milk and its compar atively low caloric content make it an especially important food in a reducing diet. Q. How does the food value of skim milk compare with whole milk? A. Skim milk has the same food value as whole milk with the ex ception of fat which furnishes calories and vitamin A. Whole milk has 160 calories per cup compared to 90 per cup of skim milk. Q. I hear so much about get ting enough milk. Is it really so important? A. Milk contains many valuable nutrients that are vital to good health. Milk is especially impor tant for calcium, riboflavin and protein. Many people get too little of these three nutrients. In fact, without a good deal of milk, it’s hard to get enough calcium and riboflavin in the diet. Q. How much milk is enough? A. The need for milk varies with a person’s age. Here are the amounts recommended daily: Children under 9 years — 2 to 3 cups; children 9 to 12 years — 3 or more cups; teen-agers — 4 or more cups, and adults — 2 or more cups. Q. I don't like to drink milk. Is there some other way to get milk? A. A great deal of milk can be “hidden” in cooked dishes like casseroles, soups and creamed dishes. Milk products may also be used to fill the milk quota. Q. What is yogurt? A. It is a fermented milk made by adding a bacterial culture to milk, usually partly skimmed. It is often enriched with nonfat dry milk. Its food value is determined by the kind and amount of milk used. The calorie range is 120 to 160 for 8 ounces. It is custard-like in consistency and acid in flavor. The fine curd may permit yogurt to be digested more quickly than plain milk.

S. Department of Agriculture reports. Other July plentifuls — listed by USDA’s Consumer and Market ing Service — are frozen concen trated orange juice, watermelons, milk and dairy products, seasonal fresh vegetables, and fresh plums. The peach crop in nine south ern states was forecast June 1 by USDA at 17.5 million bushels — three times larger than last year’s freeze-damaged crop. USDA’s June 1 peach crop fore casts for leading producing states in the Southeast follow: South Carolina, 7.5 million bushels; Georgia, 5 million; North Caro lina, 1.7 million; Alabama, 1.2 million; and Virginia, 1.1 million. The Consumer and Marketing Service reports that this season’s pack of frozen concentrated orange juice, through May 8, to taled 77 million gallons. Stocks on May 8 were up 64 percent from a year earlier. The early summer watermelon crop, estimated at 16 million hun dred-weight, is 6 percent larger than last year, USDA reports. At 12.3 million pounds, milk output during May was about equal to the 5-year average. Dur ing the first 4 months of 1965, USDA reports, total milk pro duction increased about 100 mil lion pounds over a year ago. Fresh tomatoes, celery, lettuce, sweet corn, green beans, field peas, and cucumbers are among the vegetables likely to be in good supply in the Southeast during July. FERTILIZER PAYS HART FARMER WITH GOOD YIELD Good fertilization, combined with the use of other sound prac tices, is making it possible for a Hart County farmer to produce high yields of cotton.

In response to one inquiry, Mr. Tuten stated “The Subcommittee on Panama Canal has responsi bility of all aspects of the opera tion of the existing Canal. How ever, it is now obvious that this Canal is rapidly becoming in adequate for the needs of modern shipping. In the immediate future, the Subcommittee will begin ex amining findings on two proposed routes for a new canal somewhere in the Isthmus of Panama. We will also be called upon to assist in the determination of whether or not atomic energy should be used in the construction. Mr. Tuten continued, “The building of a new Panama Canal promises to be one of the most exciting undertakings of this century, and I am delighted to have a small part in this great work.” As a member of the City Com mission and later as Mayor of Brunswick, Mr. Tuten had con siderable experience with the needs of maritime enterprise. In addition to the Subcommit tee on Panama Canal, Mr. Tuten serves as a member of the Sub committee on Fisheries and Wild life Conservation and as a mem ber of the House Committee on Public Works. Page. The county agent said that Mr. Sanders follows soil test recom mendations in applying fertilizer. He broadcasts 600 pounds of 5-10- 15 fertilizer before planting and then side dresses the crop with 200 pounds of nitrogen per acre. Mr. Sanders also believes in growing a clean crop and in con trolling insects. He tries to lay by his crop free of weeds and grass and he puts on enough in secticide to control boll weevils and other pests.
