Fertilizing Coastal Bermuda
When should you fertilize
your Coastal Bermuda Grass?
Fall application of phosphate
and potash is less efficient than
Spring application. To be
specific a recent test in Athens
showed that Spring application
of phosphorus and potash yield
ed an average of 650 pounds
more forage per acre than Fall
application.
The most efficient fertilizer
practice for coastal Bermuda is
to apply phosphate and potash
annually in April with nitrogen
applied in four split applic
| ations in the Spring.
Applying nitrogen in the
. Spring yielded 1450 pounds
I more forage per acre than Fall
j nitrogen applications.
To determine the fertilizer
requirements for your parti
| cuiar fields you should take a
I soil test. My office can supply
more information if you need
i it.
Cattle in l)rv Lot
Are you thinking about
growing and finishing cattle in
dry lot?
Maybe you are already doing
this. In any case here are a few
management tips to help you
in operating that dry feed lot.
The top of the feed bunk
should be 24 inches high if the
animals are 600 pounds or less;
30 inches high for older cattle.
As for depth of these feed
bunks, they should be eight
inches deep for calves and
about eight to ten inches deep
for older cattle.
Now for width of these feed
bunks, they should be 24 to 30
inches wide if feeding from one
.side, and about 36 inches wide
when feed is available from
both sides.
There are many more factors
to consider in successfully
operating a dry feed lot for
cattie, but if you will follow
these we have mentioned for
feed bunks you will be on the
way toward a successful oper
ation.
Future Egg Prices
Farm egg prices in the Unit
ed States through December
will be the same to slightly
higher than a year ago.
। This is the prediction of the
Poultry Survey Committee co
j sponsored by the American
Feed Manufacturers Associ
ation, National Turkey Feder
ation, and Poultry and Egg
National Board.
The average price should be
’ about 35-37 cents according to
this Committee. January-March
1963 farm egg prices will pro
bably average about 35 cents
wh ih is the same as last year.
In addition, this Committee
। reports that returns to egg pro
! ducers in the twelve months
, beginning in October 1962 will
'be about the same as in the
I preceding twelve months.

damage for your pond and you

certainly want to keep out
those weeds that cause damage
One damage that too many
weeds may cause is that they
lead to fish over-population in
that the bass can't get to the
minnows.
If weeds are present at youi
pond then you have an excell
ent area for mosquito breeding.
This you certainly don’t need.
Weeds in ponds may reduce
the oxygen content in the pond
water, too.
If you use that pond for lots
of fishing, weeds can certainly
be a nuisance in that they are
always fouling-up your fisn
hooks.
For measures on controlling
weeds in fish ponds why not
contact my office.
(Ironing Christmas Trees
Just as in any business, pro
cedures must be planned and
worked out in growing Christ
mas trees.
One of the largest items that
you want to look into is the
matter of controlling by mech
anical or chemical methods
competition from weeds.
Pruning these trees is most
important, and you want to
prune Christmas trees during
the growing season. Pruning
will improve the shape of the
tree.
According 1o a marketing
survey by Nelson Brightwell of
the state staff of the Extension
Service, you want to obtain
your orders for trees from re
tail markets by contacting these
markets early in the year. If
you wait until a month or two
from Christmas you will be too
late.
One final reminder in selling
Christmas trees, and that is to
display your trees at retail
markets so as to increase sales.
Shrubbery Buying Pointers
In buying shrubbery for
landscaping this fall and win
ter, find out how big it grows,
color of blooms, whether it is
evergreen or deciduous in
nature, exposure in which if
will grow best and rate of
growth. A little basic planning
can prevent a lot of problems
and moving of shrubs later,
says Exten si on Landscape
Specialist T. G. Williams.

Miss Hays Attends
Visiting Teacher
Conference, Albany
The Georgia Association of;
Visiting Teachers held their
fall conference at Albany No
vember 8. 9. 10. The theme of
the conference was “Shared
Responsibility in Recogn.zing
the Potential Drop-Out.” At
tend.ng from Newton County
was Miss Clara Mae Hays.
Visiting Teachers along with
psychologists, psychi atri s t s.
psychiatric social workers,
ministers, members of the
Georgia Department of Public
Health, court officials and oth
er school personnel have spent
the past three days discussing
what they as a ‘team” can do
to help the potential drop-out
before his problem actually
develops. Georgia Visiting
Teachers feel that in 'acing this
problem in a child before it is
a real problem they are assum
ing the same role that immuni
zation shots assume in prevent
ive medicine.
Having been organized in
1945 the Georgia Visiting
Teacher program has grown to
become recognized as one of
the outstanding programs of its
type in the nation. According
to Miss Florrie Still, Coordi
nator of Visiting Teacher Ser
vices, Visiting Teachers have
been called the “attorney for
the child”. The chief concern of
the Georgia Visiting Teacher
is the child himself and what
type of future he is building
for himself. Miss'Still added.
Mrs. Lula Belle Millians,
State President of the Georgia
Association of Visiting Teach
ers, presided at the meetings,
all of which were held at the
Radium Springs Country Club.
Featured speakers at the con
ference included: Judge Hud
son Malone, Juvenile Court. Al
bany; Dr. W. A. McCurry. Psy
chologist; Dr. Claude Purcell,
State Superintendent of Educa
tion; Mr. Allen Russell, psy
chiatric social worker, Albany;
Mrs. Agnes Rye. Health De
partment. Albany; Mrs. Agnes
Dye, Health Department, Al
bany; Dr. Otis Woodard, psy
chiatrist. Albany; Dr. Fredrick
Wilson, First Methodist Church,

gives lower grain yields, how

better to apply one-Lalf the
