SOILS SUITED TO IRRIGATION;
Irrigation engineers for (he Agri
cultural Extension Service, Uni
versity of Georgia, say that the
soils best suited to supplemental
irrigation are those that are well
drained, free working and not too
heavy and sticky or too course.
Clay soils are unable to absorb
water at the relatively rapid rates
sandy loams are, therefore, irriga
tion of the heavier soils is a more
difficult job.

NEWS ABOUT PERRY’S ,
NATURAL GAS SYSTEM
1 Wi' i natural gas for Perry a
certainity by October 1, if the ref
erendum on March 24 carries, it is
interesting to look for a moment I
at just what takes place immedi-1
ately when a Georgia community
obtains access to this fuel. The
Conyers system is one of Georgia’s
newest, so let’s see what natural
gas is already meaning to this city
of slightly more than 2,000 people.
Gas was turned on in Conyers
last October. By Christmas over
three hundred local residents has
started using gas in their homes,
and most business houses had
switched to this new fuel.
The first thing the people of
Conyers discovered about natural
gas was its economy. Without much
expense being involved in convert
ing appliances to natural gas or in
piping their houses, Conyers resi
dents found the first month that
natural gas is the cheapest fuel
they have ever used. Based upon
rates approximately the same as
those proposed for Perry, fuel bills
in Conyers have averaged less than
ten dollars a month this winter,
including in many cases cooking
and water healing as well as space
heating. Recently Mayor Lawrence
Veal commented that where he
paid $122.00 for heating fuel last
winter, his bill will run less than
$70.00 this year. That is a typical
saving for a residence, but com
mercial customers who use larger j
amounts of gas are finding their j
savings even greater.
Homes Heated Better
People in Conyers have com
mented on the fact that their
homes are also being heated better
than ever. The cold spots and
drafty areas which plagued home
j owners for years are no longer
there. Gone also is the trouble of
bringing fuel in, stoking furnaces
and carrying out residue. For nat
ural gas is as convenient as run
ning water, once it is available.
It wasn’t long after Conyers had
natural gas before the value of it
in attracting new industry was
seen. Within two months after the
system was in operation, represen
tatives for one of the country’s
largest rubber processors became
interested in the city as a possible
location for a branch plant. Several
i
I conferences have been held, and
there is a good possibility that this
company may locate in Conyers—
primarily because of the city of*
sering an adequate supply of an
economical, dependable fuel.
Only Littl Inconvenineces
As far as pleasant surprises -re
concerned, probably the thing that
pleased residents of Conyers most
was the lack of inconvenience to
residents when the system was be
ing built. The contractor was able
to install the system without dam
aging personal property, traffic
was virtually unaffected, and only
about thirty square feet of pave
ment was disturbed. Every bit of
this was replaced as soon as con
struction was complete.
Yes, the people of Conyers and
residents of othe cities which have
recently acquired natural gas sys
tems are discovering that this is
one of the best things that ever
happened in their communities.
Obtaining natural gas completes
the picture as far as gaining
access to all conveniences for
comfortable living, and all towns
which get gas systems will
find this one step will do more
toward developing and advanc
ingtheir communities than any
progressive step yet untaken.
A majority of Perry’s registered
voters must participate in the city
wide referendum March 24 before
gas system can be built here. If
| you are interested in seeing that
your community has access to gas,
vote on that date and carry a
neighbor with you when you go to
the polls.
Until relatively recently natural
gas was a premium fuel; its cost
was not competitive with that of
other fuels. Although large quan
tities of it were sold, its appeal
lay in its efficiency, convenience,
dependability and cleanliness rath
er than its price. Prior to World
War 11, however, other fuels began
to increase in price, while the price
of natural gas remained the same.
As a result, people in areas where
natural gas is available can pur
' chase at competitive prices a fuel
i
’ that sold at high prices for many
1 years.
