For a Fuller, Richer Life -- READ
Andrew Carnegie’s first gift to his home town, Dunferm
line, Scotland, was a public bath. His second gift was a public
library. Don’t ask us which comes first, the bath or the book,
but the free public library is now as important a part of Ameri
ca as the bathtub.
America, in over 300 years, has produced two great edu
cational ideas: the use of public money for universal education
and the use of public money for free libraries. The first of
these “revolutionary” ideas—that it was the duty of the states
to give, at public expense, education to every boy and girl—
made headway slowly, but it did dominate even the Colonial
Era in New England. Thomas Jefferson considered it essen
tial to the survival of Democracy. The second “revolutionary”
idea—the diversion of popular funds for free libraries—is
much newer, being only around sixty years old, but it has
grown in its few years.
This week, April 16-22, is National Library Week, and it
is good for us to consider the value of our local library to our
community. Sixty years ago the free public library did not
exist; today we cannot conceive of an enlightened community
without one.
The theme for 1961 National Library Week is “For a rich
er, fuller life—READ!” We can think of no better salute to
National Library Week than for everyone of us to go to our
library and check out a book we have been wanting to read for
a long time—and read it.
In 1960-61, there wore 43,810
Georgia high school students
studying Latin, French, Spanish,
German and Russian.

Ministers Urged
To Give Sermons
On Conservation
Urging ministers of the Slate
to make specific plans now for the
observation of Soil Stewardship
Week May 7-14, the Georgia Soil
Stewardship Committee announced
that (he District Supervisors will
deliver packets of material soon
for use during the week.
Last year 1,072 ministers deliv
ered sermons to 130,982 Georgians
on man’s responsibility for the
soil. Many others incluudcd pass
ages on (he theme in their mes
ages.
The Soil Stewardship Committee
is recommending sixteen ways in
which ministers can share in the
1961 emphasis. Suggested Scrip
ture texts are being furnished
along with an outline which is in i
keeping with the national theme,
“The Rewards of the Steward.”
“Faster than any nation in his- 1
tory,” Dr. G. Ross Freeman, Chap
lain of GASCDS, pointed out,
“Americans have destroyed the
topsoil. Only six inches remain.
Below that is desert, despair and
death.”

Feed Grain Price
Raised 74 Cents;
Average to Be $1,20
Feed grain producers ni Hous
ton County who cooperate in the
feed grain program will realize
one immediate benefit from the
1961 Feed Grain Bill recently en
acted into legislation.
County Agent Georgia Allmond
points out that Secretary of Agri
culture Orville L. Freeman has al
ready announced that the support
price for corn in most counties
will be 14 cents more a bushel
than it was in those counties in
1960.
The national average corn price
will be $1.20.
Mr. Allmond says that since the
corn support price in Houston
County is $1.27 per bushel for
their 1961 crop, there are limita
tions relative to support based on
the average yield established by
the ASC Committee. Production
above this will not be eligible for
price support.
National average support prices
for other feed grains are: barley,
93 cents per bushel for grade No.
2 or better; grain sorghum, $1.93
per hundredweight for grade No.
2 or better; oats, 62 cents per
bushel for grade No. 3; and rye,
$1.02 per bushel for grade No. 2
or better or grading No. 3 on test
weight only.
In announcing the new rates for
feed grains, Secretary Freeman
said that the new feed grain pi’o
gram signed into law by the pre
sident “gives an opportunity to
move toward a better relationship
between feed grain supplies and
utilization. This also permits an in
crease in support prices from past
years to help boost farm income
in the important feed grain sector
of our agricultural economy.
“Farmers, however, in return
for increased support levels are
being asked to reduce their 1961
acreages of corn and grain sor
ghum from last year in an effort
to bring production more nearly in
line with needs. Early indications
of corn planting for 1961 show
acreage down only slightly from
1960. This underlies the need for
an immediate attack on the prob
lem (his year through an emer
gency program while developing
more permanent legislation for
the years ahead.”
Each individual farm will vary
from adjoining farms or farms of
neighbors. Check with your ASC
Committee for details of your
