Landowners Approve Black
Creek Watershed Plan-Cost
Set At $3,800,000.00
Bulloch County landowners have overwhelmingly ap
proved plans presented by the Soil Conservation Service
calling for three million and eight hundred thousand dollars
in improvements in the Black Creek Watershed. The 134,000
acre watershed is located principally in Bulloch County.
John Cromley of Brooklet, President of the Watershed
Association, stated that the proposed improvements could
mean additional income, in excess of a million dollars an
nually, to farmers living in the watershed.
The plan proposes 138 miles of multipurpose channels
to be cost shared 75% Federal and 25% local. The channels
will drain the wet land and also serve to prevent flooding of
surounding land.
A 300-acre fresh-water reservoir is planned just north
of Denmark off Ga. 67. The lake will be used for irrigation,
recreation, and flood control. A public access area will be
provided.
Ten single-purpose ponds for irrigation are planned and
will be cost shared 50% Federal and 50% by the landowners
involved.
Total cost of the project is $3,828,028, of which $1,657,854 is
estimated construction cost of the ponds, lake and drainage
system. The construction cost is shared by the landowners
and will be determined by actual contract or bid price. The
remaining costs of $2,170,171 will be born 100% Federal,
which consists of labor, materials and administrative costs.
Easements will be granted by the landowners.

Surface Bonding
More Efficient
Than Mortar
Research engineers at the
University of Georgia College
of Agriculture Experiment
Stations have found that sur
face blocks is more efficient
than the conventional method
using mortar joints, according
to Joe W. Simons, a research
associate in agricultural engi
neering with the College Ex
periment Station.
Materials used in surface
bonding are:
(1) Type HI high-earl y
strength portland cement for
the primary bonding agent.
(2) Calcium chloride for re
ducing the time required for
initial set of the surface bond
mix.
(3) Hydrated lime to im
prove the plasticity of the sur
face bond mix and to produce a
more workable plaster.
(4) Calcium stearate to im
prove waterproofing qualities
of the bonding mix.
(5) Glass fiber to act as ten
sile reinforcement.
Strength comparisons of mor
tar joints and surface bonded
joints indicate that the sur
face bonded joints are consid
erably stronger than the mor
tar joints. Also, surface bond
ing provides excellent water
proofing.
The cost is much less when
using the surface bonding
method. The cost of material
for both sides of a free stand
ing block wall of 100 square
feet is about $1.50 using sur
face bonding compared with
$5.50 using the mortar method.
Another advantage is that
with some experience a rela
tively unskilled, laborer can
erect one using mortar joints.
Details comparing the two
methods are available in Re
search Report No. 30, June,
1968. For this report and fur
ther information contact your
county agent.

Sinks Add Color — End
Kitchen Drudgery
According to the experts,
the modern American
housewife makes two prime
demands on her kitchen: it
must be comfortable and
pleasant to work in and it
must have a fair share of
labor saving devices.
Appliance and fixture
manufacturers have not let
the housewife down. Con
veniences range from ultra
sonic and infrared cooking
equipment to electric knives
and can openers. Even the
kitchen sink has added
features such as single
lever fittings, detergent and
hand lotion dispensers, re
mote control drain action
and even special bowl de
signs to simplify disposer
use. The sinks are really
wild and, of course, work
hand in hand with the in-
Basements Turn Into Playrooms... Easy!
Modern prefinished interior

basements into happy fam

Essentially, it’s merely a
matter of what color and
finish is desired to cover
already-existing ceilings,
walls and floors. American
manufacturers offer home
owners a wide range of
easily-applied materials
that even the novice can
use successfully, following
the manufacturer’s instruc
tions. A few standard basic
rules, however, should be
kept in mind when planning
