Soil Stewardship Is a Week
In Which All Can Participate
Back in April, in County
Agent Ed Hunt's office, there
was a meeting of representa
tives of every agricultural
agency in Newton County.
The Cooperative Extension
Service, the Soil Conservation
Service, the Upper Ocmulgee
Soil Conservation District, the
Farmers Home Administration.
County Agricultural Bo ar d
Chairman, and the local min
isterial Association attended.
To the casual observer, it
might have appeared to be just
another agricultural meeting.
But the subject being discuss
ed was one vital to man s very
existence m this earth.
Soil Stewardship and those
charged with the responsi
bility of ‘‘preaching and teach
ing- ’ conservation of soil, wa
ter and other natural resour
ces were discussed ways to
help everybody become more
conservation minded.
The result of the meeting is
Newton County’s program for
observing Soil Stewardship
Week. May 19-26.
Soil Stewardship Week is a
nation-wide observance which
places emphasis on man's ob
ligations to God as stewards
of the soil, water and other
related resources. This year s
observance, with the theme,
"We Turn Our Eyes To The
Future,” underscores the re
sponsibility each citizen has in
meeting these obligations.
Soil Stewardship Week in
Georgia is sponsored jointly by
the State Soil Conservation
Committee and the State As
sociation of District Supervi
sors. But this is one obser
vance in which just about
everybody is urged to partici
pate.
The county agent, several
weeks in advance, called the
planning meeting of all agri
cultural agencies and other in
part harmony melodies, which
we are planning to record on
tape just before school is out.
This week we are making a
surprise gift for our mothers
for Mother’s Day next Sunday.
We’d like to tell about it, but
that would be giving away our
secret.

Historically, Georgia minis

ELIMINATING GUESSWORK
Dr. O’Dell Daniel, head of the
Extension animals husbandry
department, says no human
being is able to see a calf s
abilitv to gain, grow or handle
feed. ‘“He can only guess, and
just about half the time the
guess is wrong. But with per
formance records, he can see
quality and good confor

THE NUMBER 555-1212 IS YOUR PASSPORT TO
QUICK INFORMATION ON OUT-OF-TOWN NUM
BERS. If you live in an area that has Direct Distance
Dialing you'll find a listing in your telephone direc
tory called "Area Codes for Some Cities.” Number!
for cities with a star (*) beside them are available
from Information, or 555-1212. So, all you do to get
the number of a telephone in one of these cities is
dial ”1” (which you always do first in dialing ANY
long distance call), then dial the area code for that
city, then dial the important number 555-1212. And
when the operator gives you the number, be sure to
write it down in case you need to call it again. This
new Information number is another step in the process
that will eventually make it possible to dial almost
any telephone in the country, YOURSELF! So remem
ber — 555-1212 —for quick DDD information service.
