Choosing A Carpet
By REBECCA M. WALKER
Soiling is an important consid
eration in choosing a carpet.
Different fibers may be chos
en for different rooms because of
their resistance to soil. For in
' stance, rayon carpets lend to soil
rather quickly. Therefore, they
would be a better choice for a '
' spot such as bedrooms that do not
’ have a great deal of traffic.
Acrylics tend to soil at a con
-1 ventional rate and soil evenly.
' Nylon soils only on the top layer■
' and when this is removed, till the
’ soil is gone. If it isn’t removed, it |
’ appears to soil more quickly.
Along with soiling, we should
' i point out some advantages man
j made fibers have in the area of
' I cleaning. Since these fibers hold
1 ! very little moisture, they are
' ' more easily cleaned than natural
' । fibers.
Rayon stains most easily and
। holds stains worst. Nylon holds
stains some, but may be worked
to remove them. Propylene and
. olefin and the acrylics are least
(absorbent and, therefore, most I
'completely cleaned. This is why
I they are used for kitchen and out-
I door areas.
Always clean a carpet before it
shows soiling if you want to keep
its bright color and spotless ap
pearance.
Cotton Crop Cut
. Georgia’s 19 6 7 cotton grop
planting allotment has been set
i at 832,299 acres by the U. S. De
partment of Agriculture, down
about 3,400 acres from the cur
rent allotment. Next year’s allot-
■ ment for 20 states remained the
■ j same.
Preparing Facilities
For Grain Storage
By DAVID H. WILLIAMS
Before you store that grain
:his year you have a jab to da.
Begin by removing all old
grain, feed, and refuse from the
area cf the storage bin.
This includes between or behind.,
partitions, under the floor, and
around the outside.
The floor, ceiling, and walls
should be swept and scrubbed, if
necessary, to remove all debris.
Never mix old grain in with
the new grain.
Don't forget about those near
by sources of infestation. They
may’ have to be cleaned up, also.
If the storage bins are not tight,
now is the time to repair them
before that corn or other grain
will be hauled into the storage
area.
Os course, after cleaning you
will need to spray with a residual
insecticide before the actual stor
ing of the grain.
So make your plans now to get
those storage areas ready for stor
age of grain.
Pecan Management
By DAVID H. WILLIAMS
August is a very important
I tinhe in the production of pecans.
' The pecans mature in size dur
ing this month.
Also the beginning of vegetative
shoots is noticed which leads into
next year’s growth.
Food is also being stored in the
tree s y stem for next year’s
growth.
So you can see that August is
a very important month in the
growth of a pecan tree.
In order to insure that the pe
can tree gets all the nutrients it
needs, it is a good idea to keep
vegetative competition down. Keen
weeds and grasses mowed, and if
available you might add extra
water to the trees.
Also now is a good time to take
those leaf analysis sampels, and
for information on this subject,
contact my office.
To get your money’s worth
when you shop for beef, home
economists with the Cooperative
Extension Service suggest you
learn how to identify each cu: of
beef, and then be sure you know
how to cook each particular cut.

contains the makings of the
finest party you ever had!
Nobody ever claimed the heat pump was pretty.
But, la! it has beautiful manners! Just invite
it to your next party.
A heat pump is shy. So it prefers to sit in
conspicuously in your yard. From there, it will
rid your rooms quickly of tobacco smoke. Also
it will shut out outside noises (and help contain
party noises that might otherwise escape).
But best of all, it keeps your guests cool on
the muggiest nights. In winter, with no nudg
ing from you, it creates a warm atmosphere for
the revelers.
When they leave, it won’t. Your heat pump
will remain on duty, 24 hours a day, to bring
you permanent springtime. And make your life
a real ball!

FERTILIZER INJURY
Azaleas are easily injured by
I fertilizer. Extension Service Hor
j ticulturist Gerald E. Smith warn
ed gardeners this week. The root
system can be stunted or even
। killed if fertilizer is applied care
| lessly. A safe rate is one table
spoon per foot height of a well-
| branched plant. Apply this amoun t
■ peon after flowering and again
six to eight weeks later. Heavy
। watering will reduce the possibil
ity of fertilizer injury.

Here is good news for sweater
lovers—the sea-sweater, a new
fashion find, stretching onto the
beach in a marvelous zig zag
knit of 100% Durene mercer
ized cotton. The one piece, high
neck swimsuit by Rikki for
Sport Trio, covers the body
only to reveal the shape be
neath. Definitely designed to
pick up the tempo of any beach
beat, to wear this swim look re
quires a lithe shape and a bit
of fashion elan.

And along with exciting fash
ion, Durene cotton offers a
wearer the kind of superb com
fort needed for these sun
soaked days. The yarn has
qualities of absorption and
evaporation that are greater
i than ordinary cotton. More
over, because Durene is a
mercerized cotton yarn, it pos
sesses beautiful lustre and du
rability. These qualities do not
wash out—they enhance the
fashion product for its lifetime.
So if you are heading into the
sun and onto the sand this sea
son, Durene cotton fashions
will fulfill youi every need.
