GEORGIA FARMERS
LOSING MILLIONS
TO ACID SOILS
Acid soils are robbing Georgia
farmers of an estimated $42 mil
lion annually in potential increas
ed income from crops. P. J. Ber
geaux, agronomist with the Uni
versity of Georgia Cooperative
Extension Service, said the figure
is based on a summary of soil
test results showing 64 percent
of the state’s soils are acid (have
a pH below 6.0).
Mr. Bergeaux said research has
also shown that liming acid soils
can increase per acre yields of
cotton by 128 pounds, peanuts by
236 pounds, pastures by 70 pounds
of beef gain, and corn by 5.5
bushels.
The Extension agronomist esti
mated it would cost Georgia
farmers approximately SIO,OOO,-

000 annually to apply lime to the
acid soils in which these crops
are grown. “But the potential $42
million increase in income,” he
added, “would represent a return
of over $4 for every $1 invested
in lime.”
Mr. Bergeaux said the optimum
pH range for most Georgia crops
is between 6.0 and 6.5. Many
Georgia farmers, however, are
trying to produce crops on soils
that are much more acid than
this. On extremely acid soils, he
continued, crop yields can be
drastically reduced despite heavy
fertilization of nitrogen, phos
phorus, and potassium.
Having a soil test made is the
only sure way to determine if
acid soils exist. Mr. Bergeaux
said soil testing is a simple and
inexpensive procedure. He urged
farmers to contact their county
Extension agents for complete in
formation.

The following rules were
posted on a hospital bulletin
board in the 1880’s for the
guidance of nurses:
“In addition to caring for your
fifty patients, each nurse will fol
low these regulations:
“1. Daily sweep and mop the
floors of your ward, dust the pa
tient’s furniture and window sills.
“2. Maintain an even tempera
ture in your ward by bringing in a
scuttle of coal for the day’s busi
ness.
“3. Light is important to ob
serve the patient’s condition.
Therefore, each day fill kerosene
lamps, clean chimneys, and trim
wicks. Wash the windows once a
week.
“4. The nurse’s notes are impor
tant in aiding the physician’s
work. Make your pens carefully,
you may whittle nibs to your
individual taste.
“5. Each nurse on day duty will
report every day at 7 a. m. and
leave at 8 p. m., except on the
Sabbath on which day you will be
off from 12 noon to 2 p. m.
“6. Graduate nurses in good
standing with the director of nur
ses will be given an evening off
each week for courting purposes,
or two evenings a week if you go
regularly to church.
“7. Each nurse should lay aside
from each pay day a goodly sum
of her earnings for her benefits
during her declining years, so
that she will not become a bur
den. For example, if you earn S3O
a month you should set aside sls.
“8. Any nurse who smokes, uses
liquor in any form, gets her hair
done at a beauty shop, frequents
dance halls will give the director
of nurses good reason to suspect
her worth, intentions and in
tegrity.
“9. The nurse who performs her
labors, serves her patients and
doctors faithfully and without
fault for a period of five years
will be given an increase by the
hospital administration of five
cents a day providing there are no
hospital debts that are outstand
ing.”
IN THE DARK
Glass containers of food need
to be stored in a dark place. Miss
Nelle Thrash, Extension home e
conomist-food preservation, said
light will leach out the color of
canned foods. If there is no dark
place around, glass containers
can be stored easily in cardboard
boxes.

Fines 5 Pierce
Liquor Stores
ATLANTA — The State Reve
nue Department imposed penal
ties totaling $7,500 last Thursday
against operators of five retail
liquor stores in Pierce County for
permitting gambling on the pre
mises.
Slot machines found in the es
tablishments were declared con
traband and confiscated by law
enforcement officers.
The penalties came in orders
forfeiting bonds required of all
liquor dealers.
Deputy Revenue Commissioner
Martin B. Roberts said each own
er was ordered to forfeit a SSOO
malt beverage bond and placed
on probation for 12 months, and
to forfeit a SI,OOO liquor bond.
They also were placed on 12
months probation for the liquor
licenses.
The deputy revenue commis
sioner said those involved were
found guilty of operating gam
bling machines in beer and wine
outlets and having machines in
rooms adjoining their liquor
stores.
H. C. Todd, owner of two stores,
forfeited bonds totaling $3,000.
Penalties of $1,500 each went a
gainst C. A. Dixon, Ronnie A.
Turner and W. N. Bridges.
COLORFUL FOOD
The way food looks — including
its color, texture, and shape —
influences a person to eat or not
to eat, according to Extension
Service home economics — nutri
tion. A meal which is mostly one
color won’t be as appetizing as
one which combines the green of
a vegetable, the white of potatoes,
the golden brown of fried chicken,
and the red of spiced apples.
New Peach Products
New peach products may soon
be commonplace in the supermar
kets. The two most promising
ones, according to Extension Hor
ticulturist C. D. Spivey, are peach
concentrate and chilled peach
slices.

All the hot water you want when you want

just one but two heating elements in the
tank. They provide amazingly quick recovery.
Electric water heaters may be installed
anywhere, even in an airtight closet. Flame
less and fumeless, they consume no oxygen,
need no vents or flues. No external valves or
controls to adjust or to get out of adjust
ment. That means precious peace of mind.
You can own an electric water heater with a
five-year guarantee, on parts and labor, for as

appliance may qualify you for SIOO toward
the cost of wiring or rewiring your home
