it GEORGIA HERITAGE—An unpretentious residence nestled in
g the slopes of Pine Mountain, Georgia, built by a polio-stricken
. New Yorker, became the nation’s “Little White House” in 1933
{ when its owner was elected President of the United States. A
_! victim of polio in 1921, Franklin D. Roosevelt came to Warm
| Springs three years later to test the recuperative powers of its ;
waters. He was so impressed with its benefits that he instituted
the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation so that many others could
: be helped. Mr. Roosevelt personally selected his Pine Mountain
i home-site near Warm Springs, and frequently stayed there. In
! the twelve-plus years of his presidency, Warm Springs and the
| Little White House received nation-wide attention during the
| Roosevelt visits, and since his death in 1945 the two locations
| have become nationally known shrines. The Little White House
| (on U, S. Highway 85-W between Columbus and Atlanta) is

|Cultivate Peanuts
lOnly If Necessary -
! By M. X. JACKSON ~ ~
‘ LE c??z‘itywm g 4
Cultivation is needed for pea
nuts only’ it * weeds* become a
prcblem. Research has generally
|shown some reduction in yield
due to cultivdtion regardless of
how much care is taken.
Whern peanuis are planted in
fields jnfestedd with nuj or "ber
'muda; grass, inetrmediate or late
season cultivation may be neces
[sary. Use flat running sharp
sweeps to clip vegetation just be
low the soil surface. Dirting is de
trimental to peanuts and should
be avoided. When properly used
sharp sweeps with thin shanks do
not shift soil onto peanut plants.
Sweeps should be adjusted to run
level and be kept knife sharp.
Precision cultivation can only
be done with proper equipment.
Mount sweeps cn a strong culti
vator frame equipped with gauge
wheels to insure positive coatrol.
Adjust sweeps to the precise depth
required and check frequency to
make certain all shanks are in
alignment. |
Where bermuda or nut grass is
present, they may tend to build
up on the plow shank. If this is
permitted much of the feather line
action is lost. Check shanks fre
quently and remove vegetation
from the shanks and sweeps. |
A good indication of proper
cultivation is evidenced by the
presence "of clipped grass and
weeds left standing almost in their
original position after being un
der cut or cut by the sweep. A
sharp sweep cuts. A dull sweepi
drags. Keep sweeps sharp and
running flat at all times for ef-|
fecient mechanical weed control
in peanuts. |

Sen. Talmadge Urges
Direct Payment =
l'Plan-« For Cotton =
A+ “l hope some day wecan do
'for cotton what we have done for
| “wool”, U S./Sen.-Herman E. Tal
; madge told the Senate in his lat
| est of a series of s‘pe‘eches_‘ advo
¢ catihg a new‘approach to farm’
legislation. |
! Long an advocate of doing away '
. with the price support loan pro
, gram in favor of a direct, com
. pensatory payment plan for cot
. ton to tzke the government out of
the business of buying, storing,
.‘shipping and selling cotton, he
'said just such a thing has been
successfully done for wool pro-,
. ducers. i
| Prior to the enactment of the
National Wool Act of 1954, Tal-|
'madge said, the government was
holding more than 100 million
' pounds of wool it had acquired in |
the old price support loan and!
purchase program. The act did a
'way with the price support loan |
,and purchase program and shift-i
ed to a program of direct pay-!
ments to wool producers. |
“The results were dramatic,” he’
'declared. “Within two years the |
rCo:mvnod.i‘.y Credit Corporation |
was ablerto dispose of its wool in- |
ventories..And the government has
not been “burdened with wool
stocks since that time. |
i Calling the direct payment pro- |
gram a “highly efficient method
'of price support to our wool pro—‘
ducers,” Sen. Talmedge said it
has enabled domestic wool to bet- |
| ter compete with imports and syn- |
| thetic fibers and has kept domes
itic production and domestic con- |
sumption of wool much higher!
|than under the old loan program.
i ‘'There is 1o reason,” he em
| phasized, “why a direct payment
iprogram that has worked so well.
lfor wool cannot also work suc
-Icessfully for cotton. By switching
ifrom a loan program to a direct.
lpayment program for cotton, we.
[can take the government out of
ithe business of buying, storing,
lshipping and selling cotton, and%
‘we can save the taxpayers billions
lof dollars.” |
l Such a shift, the senator said,
would enable the government to
get rid of cotton inventories,
would be an incentive to farmers
to control production, would make
\cotton more competitive on the
{world market, free farmers from
red tape, maintzin farm income
and reduce taxpayers’ costs. ?
