I produce livestock feed cheaper
' per acre and per ton than any
| other feed crop Already, there
are over 660,000 acres in the
state. Just because the name
is Coastal it does not mean it
can only be grown near the
coast. This particular type of
Bermuda Grass is found over
the entire state.
Coastal Bermuda should be
planted in spring and early
summer in North Georgia, and
may be planted into the fall in
the southern regions of the
state.
Now is the time for planting
Coastal Bermuda Grass, and if
you need additional informa
tion on this hybrid Bermuda,
notify my office.
Nitrogen for Cotton
It takes about 100 pounds of
actual nitrogen per acre to pro
duce the first bale of cotton
THI COVINGTON NIWS
lint. Bach succeeding bale re
quired about 30 pounds more
actual nitrogen.
You see by this that nitrogen
is most important if you want
to produce profit making cot
ton.
The general recommenda
tions of nitrogen for cotton is
60 pounds per acre. H<rwever,
many people are using as high
as 90 pounds of actual nitro
gen per acre.
If you need additional infor
mation on nitrogen please con
tact my office.
Overfertilization of Shrubs
Too much fertilizer around
vour shrubs can be bad. This
will cause sudden leaf drop
ping and dying of the shrub
during the growing season.
Dying of the tips or borders
of leaves can also be a symp
tom of fertilizer injury to the
root system of the shrub.
This injury usually shows up
in about three or four days af
ter the heavy application of
chemical fertilizer.
Chicken litter should be
weathered out of doors for
about a year before using
around shrubs in order to pre
vent root damage.
If your shrubs have suffered
fertilizer injury you should
prune back at least one-half to
three fourths of the limb sys
tem of the heavily injuried
ones. Then mulch and water
the plant often.
To prevent fertilizer injury
to your shrubs you should ap
ply fertilizer light and often to
moist soil and then soak the
fertilizer into the ground.
Closed Hog Herd
We often hear the phrase
“closed hog herd.” Just what
is this?
A “closed hog herd’’ is one
that is organized so that a di
sease may not be transmitted
into it from another source. It
may also be used to prevent
spread of disease from this par
ticular herd to another.
To close your hog herd you
should keep out all visitors and
trucks; vaccinate for commu
nicable diseases; cook kitchen
garbage or don’t feed it; raise
replacements or obtain from a
known disease free source; iso
late and blood test all incoming
stock; isolate, quarantine, and
treat all sick animals; and es
tablish a positive method of sow
and litter identification.
IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE

Veterans with GI
Loans Should Use
Caution in Sale
Veterans with GI loans
should be careful that they are
formally relieved of responsi
bility for the loan if they sell
the property to another person,
Georgia Veterans Service Di
rector Pele Wheeler said this
week.
This can be accomplished
only by formal approval by
the Veterans Administration,
unless the transaction is com
pletely re-financed, he said.
In cases where the buyer as
sumes the veteran’s loan with
out VA acceptance, the veteran
will be called upon to pay-off
the governments loss in case of
a foreclosure.
Meanwhile, the deadline of
July 25 for GI loans for many
World War 11 veterans draws
nearer. Veterans have ten
years plus an additional year
Short-Course
For Nurses
Offered at Emory
A short-course in maternal
and child health for nurses is
being offered by the Emory
University School of Nursing
June 4-15.
Louise Murray, Assistant
Professor and Director of Ma
ternal-Child Health Nursing at
the University of Washington
School of Nursing will teach.
The course will emphasize
the newest concepts in matern
al and child health in relation
to past, present and future
trends. Also included will be
the role of maternal and child
health nurses in case of dis
aster or emergency situations.
Any nurse is eligible includ
ing those in public health, in
dustry, schools — even those
currently “retired” as house
wives and mothers.
This is one of two short
courses being offered for the
first time this summer by Em
ory’s School of Nursing. “Re
habilitation Nursing Care in
the Home’’ will be July 9-July
20. This course will be limited
to nurses in administrative,
supervisory or teaching jobs.
For further information on
either of the courses or to reg

for each #0 daya of active war
time service to complete a VA
loan. For many World War 11
veterans, this means July 25 or
a few days thereafter.
Some direct VA loans, which
have been unavailable since
last fall, are expected to be
come available again some
time this month. Most will go,
however, to veterans who have
been on the waiting list for
several months. They can be
made only in counties where
guaranteed VA loans are not
available from conventional
lending institutions.
Normally, VA loan applica
tions are made directly to the
Veterans Administration or
through a builder or lending
institution which makes GI
loans. Veterans needing advice
or assistance about their eligi
bility for a loan or concern
ing being relieved from the
responsibility for a loan fol
