fine prints, over 500 paintings

drawings.

kindergartens, elementary
schools, and high schools all
over the State have visited the
Georgia Museum. And the
Museum has visited them. By
arrangement with the Georgia
Center for Continuing
Education,, the Director has
traveled with some 20
paintings to 180 communities
around the State and made a
number of trips, to the larger
cities.

Mini Or Many?
The spring and summer
months in the C ity of Alamo have
been filled with work on home
gardens. As one drives through
the City' he views crops in
cluding a wide range of veg
etables.
From each economic level
citizens used vacant lots and
extra lawn spaces to create
spots where more tlian a weed
crop could flourish.
Some of these spots have
varieties of flowers in bloom
along with the okra, beans,
peas and other fruitful plants.
Last week three Garden Club
members toured the City for
the express purpose erf counting
the number of gardens. What
would be your estimate? There
were a total of 74 of these mini
vegetable gardens counted. So
it could be said there are MANY'
MINIS.
Ground Covers
■ By David H. Williams
A good ground cover is one
that spreads rather rapidly,
requires little maintenance and
isn’t bothered a great deal by
insects and diseases.
There are several that fit
this description. Among them
are English and Algerian Ivy,
Liriope, Mondo grass and
Ajuga. Some of these do better
in this area than others, so
check to be sure you use one
that is adapted.
Our extension horticulturists
have outlined procedures for
establishing ground covers
which encourage rapid coverage
and the elimination of trouble
some weed competition.
First, they suggest adding a

Row crops aren’t the only plants
that interest Tom Rowland.
He helps raise power plants, too.
In Vidette, Burke County, Tom Rowland’s business
is farming. Growing cotton, corn and soybeans. He’s
also a shareholder of the Georgia Power Company.
That makes him one of our bosses.
Lots of other people are, too. Could be your
high school math teacher. Your coffee-break friend.
Or the choir director. Altogether, some 121,000 men
and women are direct investors in this company and
its parent firm. The Southern Company.
Many more people are indirect owners. For ex
ample, insurance companies, mutual savings banks
and pension funds have investments in electric utility
companies all over the nation. This gives millions
of Americans an indirect financial interest in the in
dustry. The money invested helps to build plants,
lines and other facilities required to assure your
supply of electricity.
So, you see. companies such as ours, serving just
about everybody, are owned by just about everybody.
Chances are. that includes you, too.

A citizen wherever we serve^
t three-to four-inch layer of or
ganic matter to the soil. Peat
moss, compost or ground bark
is recommended. Fertilizer and
lime should also be applied.
In the absence of a soil test,
add three pounds of a complete
fertilizer per 100 square feet.
Lime needs are determined only
by a soil test.
The fertilizer and organic
matter should be incorporated
with the soil to a minimum
depth of eight inches.
If at all possible, fumigate
the cultivated area. Methyl bro
mide or Vapam eliminates
weeds and grasses and kills
most seed and harmful organ
isms. Fumigation beneath trees
is not recommended, however.
New ground cover plantings
should be irrigated frequently
to encourage new growth. Sup
plemental water may be needed
every five to ten days, de
pending on the soil type.
Summer Thinning
There is evidence to indicate
it pays to thin planted pine
1 stands during the summer. This
was brought out by research
by International Paper Company
near Bainbridge.
Reporting on these tests, our
Extension foresters say pine
1 root rot is much more serious
in planted stands that are thin
ned during cooler months than
those thinned May through Au-
‘ gust.
‘ If it is necessary to thin
’ the trees in the winter months,
the fresh cut stumps should
be sprinkled with Borax powder
to prevent the disease from
entering the planted stand.
There is no known control at
the present time for pine root
rot. So this makes prevention
of the disease even more im
portant.

Here’s a tip for removing
rust from garden tools. Dip a
soap-filled steel wool pad in
pure kerosene or turpentine
and scrub. When most of the
rust has been removed and
while the fluid is still on the
tool, wad up a piece of foil and
rub the tool briskly with it.
