Planting Oats
The time is here for you to
plant oats for grazing, and it
won’t be too long until it will
be time to plant oats for grain
Oats for grain should be
planted between October 1 and
November I.— Oats for graz
ing should now be planted in
this section.
Make sure you use a certified
seed variety and for the correct
variety for this section, why
don’t you contact my office?
If you plant your oats for
grain use two bushels per acre.
For grazing you need to u»e
four bushels per acre.
One final reminder, plant
treated, certified seed, and we
hope that you have al eady
tested your soil so you know
the correct fertilizer to use,
plus your lime standing.
When to Soil Test
We are often asked when is
the best time to take a soil test.
Actually, a soil test may be
taken any time of the year.
However, you should allow at
least a month for your recom
mendations to be returned to
you.
For your spring plantings, it
is best to take the soil test in
October, November, December,
and January.
Soil tests for fall plantings
are best taken during June,
July, and August.
The soil sample and the in
formation sheet should be fill
ed out and returned to my of
fice. If you need soil test bags
and information sheets contact
my office.
Don't guess, soil test.
Lime for Pastures
Fall is the proper time to ap
ply lime to your Bermuda Grass
and similar pastures.
Soil tests should be taken at
the start of the fall season so
that the results can be return
ed to you in time to do a n y
good.
If lime is applied in the fall
it will have time to become ef
fective by the time the growth
begins in the spring.
Another reason for applying
lime in the fall is that it wiil
condition the soil so that the
maximum benefit can be ob- i
tained from the fertilizer you ।
apply in the winter.
If you need additional infor
mation, contact my office.
Thinning Pine Stands
During the winter months
you may want to thin the pine
stands on your place.
If the pines are too thick,
many limbs and needles will
die from lack of sunlight. Re
member that food a tree uses
is manufactured in the leaves.
If the tree has a small crown
it means that the growth of
this tree is too slow. You may
increase the growth rate by
four or five times if you do a
good job of thinning.
Thinnings should begin while
the stand is still young and the
trees are still putting on height
growth. Once a tree has most
of its height growth, thinning
doesn’t help much.
Don’t forget that thinning at
regular intervals will help keep
your pine stands healthy and
better able to withstand attack
by insects and diseases.
My office or the County Ran- :
ger can help you plan your
thinning program.
Health of Dairy Calves
If you are planning to have
a healthy group of calves from
your dairy cows there are cer
tain things that must be done.
Today, let’s concern oursel
ves with the housing for these
calves.
The calves should be raised
in individual calf pens, and the
pens should be constructed so
that they can be easily cleaned
and disinfected.
By all means keep the pen*
clean and sanitary, and do not
paint the pens with a lead
paint, and don’t leave those
paint cans in the pen.
You should avoid wet bed
ding and dampness in these
pens, and keep the building
well ventilated, but avoid
drafts.
There are many more things
to consider in raising a good
bunch of calves, but these are
certainly important for you to
consider now.
Planting Wheat
It will soon be time for you
to plant wheat during this
fall season, and today let’s look
at some of the important items
you should consider.
The rate of seeding per acre
for wheat should be from one
to one and a half bushels. You
want to plant the recommend
ed variety for this section of
the state, and for the correct
variety for this area contact
my office.
Seeding date for this area is:
Piedmont — October 15.
’HE COVINGTON NEWS
General Fertilizer recommen
dations are 300-500 pounds of
6-12-12 or 5-10-15. If the wheat
is to be used for grazing you
should use 400-600 pounds per
acre of 6-12-12 or 5-10-15.
Meet your lime needs, too, and
the way to find out how much
and what kind of fertilizer to
use, as well as your lime needs,
is to take a soil test.
Don’t forget about the top
dressing, and make sure you
plant clean, certified, treated
seed.
Mastitis
You want to control mastitis
if you are to operate a success
ful dairy farm.
For your entire herd you
need to follow the recommend
ed management procedures. My
office can provide you with
these items that you should
consider.
Make sure you use the re
commended milking proce
dures. and use proper diagnosis
including physical examination,
bacterioligical examination and
such other tests as may be
needed for your herd.
Treatment for mastitis
should be carried out under
directions of your veterinarian.
Do not ship abnormal milk,
and withhold milk from treated
quarters and do not ship for at
least 2 hours after the last
treatment.
Falling Leaves
Well, it is just about time
for those pretty, green leaves
to fall from those trees around
your house. This yeas why not
save those leaves in place of
destroying them.
Why?
You can turn the leaves into
excellent soil builders with
little effort and expense and
you can do this much cheaper
than you can buy other or
ganic matter such as peat moss
or animal manures.
You may make a simple com
post heap to hold leaves while
certain bacteria and fungi work
together to make humus that
you can use later on.
For information on how you
may save those falling fall
leaves contact my office.
Farm Mixing of Poultry Feed
When you mix your feed on
your farm for your poultry you
are a feed manufacturer, and
certain things should be con
sidered.
It takes time to purchase and
then to mix the feed in a cor
rect manner, so make sure you
have the time and use it well.
The person in charge of the
feed mixing on your place
should be trained in this field
so that he knows wha‘ is ex
pected from his operation.
Purchasing the items for the
feed is a vital point in farm
mixing of poultry feed. You
must know how to purchase
concentrate, super-concentrate,
or pre-mixtures so that you buy
the proper product.
By proper management steps
you may be able to save mone.y
by mixing your own poultry
feed. Remember that you must
have enough birds to justify the
cost of the equipment you will
need.
Forest Management
Ever so often we like to
mention to you the six step
forest management program
FARMERS MUTUAL EXCHANGE, Inc.
HOWARD PICKET, Asst. Manager
HIGHWAY-278 PHONE 786-3403 COVINGTON, GA
that is recommended by t h e
Extension Service.
We believe that this program
is certainly needed in this
I county if we are to turn one
of our most important pro
ducts into a really paying pro
position.
There is probably « land
owner near you who is now
practicing these six steps, and
you can certainly be assured
that he is well pleased.
In way of reviewing let’s
look at these six steps again.
First there is prevention and
control of wild fires. Next is
reforestation. Third is the mat
ter of timber stand improve
ment.
The fourth step to good for
est management is diversifed
utilization. Next is good har
vesting practices, and the last
step is wise selling practices.
If you are not following all
these six steps with your for
est acres, why not consider
them and start employing
them.
Pecan Crop Small;
Prices Expected
To Rise Sharply
Prices paid for pecans this
fall are expected to be up
sharply for the greatly reduced
crop.
If prices behave according
to the usual trend, pecan pro
ducers can expect prices to be
50 to 100 percent more than
last year, depending upon va
rieties, says Paul C. Bunce, Ex
tension outlook information
specialist, University of Geor
gia College of Agriculture.
All prices should be up sig
nificantly, he said, with prices
for improved varieties rising
more than for seedlings. Last
year’s average prices were 15
cents a pound for seedlings and
19 for improved varieties.
The USDA has forecast a
60 percent smaller national
crop this year than in 1961.
The reduction is expected to
be even greater in Georgia—
-81 percent.
Trends for the last several
years have shown that for a
one percent increase in produc
tion from one year to the next,
a reduction in price of .3 per
cet may be expected. When
production dropped one per
cent, the price has advanced an
average of 1.12 percent. These
figures are for improved varie
ties, but seedlings have follow
ed the same trend with changes
in both directions being slight
ly smaller.
The usual supply and de
mand picture will be affected j
by two other factors, Mr. Bunce I

Georgia Leads
In Pulpwood
Production Now
Georgia, for the fourteenth
consecutive year, leads the
South in pulpwood production.
The 1962 edition of “Southern
Pulpwood Production” shows
that 4,949.100 cords were har
vested in Georgia in 1961. This
is a one percent increase over
1960.
Among the leading produc
ers, Alabama was second with
3.3 million cords. North and
South Carolina and Florida
each produced over two mil
lion cords. Tennessee had a 16-
percent increase to 418,500
cords.
Georgia also remained the
leading producer of wood re
sidue with 543,076 cords. States
producing more than 100,000
cords included Alabama, Ark
ansas, and North Carolina. For
the South, wood residue pro
duction totaled more than 3.3
million cords.
Hardwoods was another area
of increased production. A
seven percent increase over
1960 and 17-percent over 1959
was noted in the 1961 produc
tion of some 4.3 million cords.
Alabama and Georgia were
cited for production gains.
They rank second and third
respectively in production af
ter being dormats of the South
only ten years ago.
The South’s leading produc
er of roundwood was Baldwin
County, Ala. with an output of
171,485 cords. Camden, Clinch,
Ware and Wayne Counties are
pointed out as among 16-
counties in the South cutting
more than 100,000 cords of
roundwood.
Pulpwood output in the 12-
Southern States increased three
percent with nine of the States
showing increases. Louisiana,
Mississippi, and Oklahoma
pointed out. First, the price
for pecans is showing a gen
eral upward trend. Demand for
pecans seems to be more elastic
than more basic food products.
Research has indicated a strong
relationship between demand
for pecans and level of con
sumer income.
Also, cold storage holdings
of tree nuts, including pecans
were up as of June 30. Sup
plies of shelled nuts were up
2.5 percent over last year, and
supplies of nuts in shell were
up by 160 percent.
were the only States showing a
decline.
The Southern States produc
tion of 24,230,728 cords is 60-
percent of the nation’s total in
1961. In other production areas,
hardwood and residues in
creased. However, pine round
wood remained virtually un
changed for the third consecu
tive year, according to the re
port.
The report includes charts
and graphs on the number of
companies producing pine and
hardwood roundwood, mill ca
pacity, production increases and
