Fertilizer and Rainfall
Fertilizer applied during
drought years is not complet
ely lost. True, it may not ben
efit the crop grown during the
drought year, but some of the
elements are retained in the
soil.
Most of the phosphate and
potash will be stored in the
soil for next year’s crop. Ni
trogen, because it is more sol
uble, will leach from the soil
if heavy rains occur before
the next growing season.
In basing our fertilizer re
commendations it is best to
consider the average rainfall
conditions. If we do not it will
result in poor returns for the
money invested in fertilizer.
Common Bermuda Grass
At least 350 pounds of beef
per acre can be produced from
Common Bermuda Grass. If the
proper liming, fertilization, and
management practices are fol
lowed you can reach this fig
ure.
Common Bermuda will pro
duce well in the Spring with
adequate bming and fertilizing.
Os course, your soil test recom
mendations should be followed
here.
You can increase the protein
content of Common Bermuda by
applying nitrogen in split ap
plication. Usually around 100
pounds of actual ntrogen per
acre, are applied as top dres
sing in addition to the nitrogen
in the mixed fertilizer will be
sufficient for Common Bermu
da Grass.
Deed control will add even
more to the yield of well limed
and well fertilized fields of
Common Bermuda.
My office has additional in
formation on grasses.
Liming Soybean Soil
Lime should be applied at
least one month before plant
ing of soybeans. This will give
the lime time to become effec
tive by the time plants are in
the growing stage.
A pH of 6.0 to 6.5 is usually
best for soybeans. This range
is good, too, for other crops
usually grown in rotation with
soybeans.
You should make your lime
correspond to your soil test re-
Do You Know the Danger
Signals About Cancer?
We will give you a few of the
danger signals about Cancer
that we may save more lives
in Newton County this year,
from this dread disease.
There were an estimated ua,-
000 new cases of Breast Can
cer in 1962 and 24,000 deaths
from it because it was not
treated in time.
The danger signal is a lump
or thickening in the breast. The
safeguard is an annual checkup
and a monthly breast self exa
mination. This is the leading
cancer death in women.
Colon and rectum cases (es
timated) 72,000 in 1962 and
40,000 deaths. Danger signal is
change in bowel habits or
bleeding Safeguard: Annual
checkup, including proctoscopy.
Kidney and Bladder: Esti
mated 28,000; with 13,000 es
timated deaths. Danger Signal:
Urinary Difficulty. Bleeding—
in which case consult your doc
tor at once. Safeguard: Annual
check-up including urinalysis.
Lung: Estimated 45,000 with
estimated deaths 39.000; Danger
signal: persistent cough, or lin
gering respiratory ailment.
Safeguard: Annual Checkup.
Chest X-ray; Learn facts about
smoking.
Mouth. Larynx and Pharynx:
Estimated 19,000 cases in 1962
with estimated deaths at 9,000.
Danger Signal: Sore that

i commendations. Remember that
soybeans on unlimed acid soils
will not grow properly because
of several reasons. Starvation
for nitrogen, calcium, or mag
nesium, low phosphorus avail
ability, or manganese toxicity
can occur if the soybean land
is not properly limed.
My office has more informa
tion on soybeans in this coun
ty if you need it.
Selecting Hog Breeder Stock
When selecting hog breeder
stock, always look for gilts and
boars out of large litters. If you
plan to save replacement stock,
do not save pigs out of litters
smaller than ten.
Select from a litter with un
iform weight of around three
pounds per pig at birth. An
other good suggestion is that
you select about 25 per cent
more than needed. This is es
pecially true if the first selec
tion is made at weaning.
By all means select from lit
ters that are healthy, active
and uniform.
Watering Transplanted Shrubs
Almost all shrubs need peri
odic waterings during the first
growing season after trans
planting. This is particularly
true during the summer months.
One of the major reasons for
the new transplanted shrub
dying is that it failed to re
ceive the proper amount of
water.
The new shrub should have
mulching materials under the
plant to conserve soil moisture.
In addition, a two to three inch
mound should be made out
from the plant in order to re
tain water.
You should heavily water the
newly transplanted shrub every
seven to ten days during the
dry periods.
Fertilizer Injury
The increased per acre rates
of relatively high fertilizer an
alysis lead to trouble, because
much of the equipment on the
farms today was designed to
place fertilizer of low analysis
and low rates per acre.
If this type equipment is used
today with our high rates of
does not Heal, Difficulty in
Swallowing and Hoarseness.
Should have annual checkup.
Many more lives should be sav
ed because the mouth is easily
accessible to visual examination
by physicians and dentists.
Skin: Estimated 67,000 cas
es in 1962 with estimated
deaths 4,000. Danger Signal:
Sore that does not heal, or
change in wart or mole.
Prostate: Estimated 31,000
with estimated deaths of 16.000.
Danger Signal: Urinary Diffi
cuty. Safeguard: Annual Check
up including palpation. Occurs
mainly in men over 60. The di
sease can be detected by pal
pation and urinalysis at annual
checkup.
Stomach: Estimated 25,000,
with estimated deaths at 19.000.
Danger Signal: Indigestion.
Safeguard: Annual checkup. A
40% decline in mortality in 20
years, for reasons yet unknown.
Uterus: Estimated cases in 1962:
40,000 with estimated deaths at
14.000. Safeguard Annual
checkup including pelvic ex
amination and papanicolaou
smear. Danger Signal: Unusual
bleeding or discharge.
Leukemia: Estimated cases in
1962, 16,000 with estimated
deaths at 14.000. Leukemia is
a cancer of blood-forming tis
sues and is characterized by the
abnormal production of imma
ture white blood cells. Acute
cases strike mainly children
and is treated by drugs which
have extended life from a few
months to as much as three
years. Chronic Leukemia strikes
usually after age 25 and pro
gresses less rapidly. Cancer ex
perts believe that if drugs or
vaccines are found which can
cure or prevent any cancers
they will be successful first for
Leukemia and the Lymphomas.
Lymphomas: Estimated cases
19,000 with 14.000 deaths.
These diseases arise in the
lymph system and include Hod
gkin's disease and Lymphosar
coma. Some patients with Lym
phatic cancers can lead nor
mal lives for many years.
Estimated New Cancer cases
for Georgia in 1962 are, all |

Proper placement for today’s
fertilizer program calls for fer
tilizer to be placed three inches
to one side and three inches
below the seed. Fertilizer can
be broadcast if you do not have
equipment to place the fertili
zer in the proper manner.
Cotton Sprayers
Insect control is most impor
tant if you want to have a pro
fitable cotton crop. When you
get ready to start this year’s
sprayer operations clean' the
sprayer nozzles with a soft
piece of wood. Never use wire

Spray patterns of tiny drop
lets with enough force to reach
buds and squares. If you do not
know the correct pressure for
your sprayer, you may contact
my office for the needed infor
mation.
Make sure the nozzles are not
allow to drag through the cot
ton plants. Remember, too, that
the top third of the plant is the
most important if you want to
do a good job of insect control
on your cotton.
Weed Control in Soybeans
Weeds compete with soybeans
for moisture and plant nutri
ents. Therefore, you should
control these weeds, and there
by, up your yield from soy
beans.
Soybeans should be planted
in row widths that can be cul
tivated with usual setting of
equipment for corn and other

YOUR GRAIN
How many of you hog farmers ask yourself: and turn it into a HIGH-EFFICIENCY Purina
''How can I cut my cost of turning grain into Hog Chow ration. You get more in return
pork?" There might be many different ways from your grain, because your hogs put on
to answer this problem. We feel the best more meat from less feed.
answer is to custom mix it with a Purina Hog So to put low-cost gains on your hogs,

utes' time we will grind and mix your grain— to yourself: it costs you less.
DO YOU KNOW ... the extent of Purina Research ?
I f P 1 Purina long has done basic research work at its 778-acre farm, Gray
l/l I I Summit, Mo.; and at other farms in Nashua, N. H., and Graceville,
Fla. Playing an equally important role are the continually expanding
laboratory facilities in St. Louis.
IrTJ these research farms and laboratories are only the first

crops. Soybeans should be in
12 to 15 seed per linear foot of
row, and the seed should be
covered up to one and a half
inches deep on heavy or clay
soils. If you have light or sandy
soils, you should plant around
one and a half to two and a
half inches.
First cultivations can be done
with a rotary hoe, a spike tooth
harrow or weeder. Remember
that good cultivation could in
sure profitable yields of 25 or
more bushels per acre from
soybeans.
Fire Prevention
Just because warmer wea
ther is here, and you are rely
ing less and less on fire for
heating, don’t overlook the
fact that a fire can start any
time.
To prevent a fire you should
keep attics, lofts, cellars, and all
storage places clear of trash
and oily rags. In other words,
remove all fire hazards.
Another important preven
tive measure against fires is
to remove grass and weeds
from around buildings and
along fence rows.
By all means install lighting
surge arresters to protect the
electric meter service, wiring,
and appliances, and the inter
ior of the home from damage.
Don’t give a fire a place to
start.
Soil Drainage for Plants
If you locate ornamental
plants near a water drain spout
or in a depression where water
Thursday, April 19, 1961
accumulates, you are asking for
trouble. These plants will of
ten grow poorly or slowly
start to die.
The foliage of these plants
will often become pale green,
and 'you can expect leaf drop
to occur throughout the year.
If you have to plant a shrub
near a water spout you might
try diverting the water past the
plant.
You could increase the soil
level by about six to eight in
ches in the plant area. This
should be done by digging the
plant in the winter, and then
replacing the plant at the new
level. Make sure this is done
in the winter, and that you do
not fill in around the plant
without first digging it.
Uterine Cancer
Although uterine cancer kills
14,000 women every year the
death toll has gone down 40
per cent in the past 20 years.
Today The American Cancer
Society says if every adult wo
man had a complete health
check-up annually including a
“Pap” smear examination by
her doctor, uterine cancer
could be eliminated as a cause
of cancer deaths. Even when
one of the seven danger signals
shows uterine cancer may be
present, if treated properly
while the cancer is localized
eight out of ten are being
cured of uterine cancer.
