Apply Nitrogen To Corn

Now is the time for
most Bryan County far

to their corn. The best
Throughout the state, there are numerous rural
electric cooperatives and city-owned power sys
tems which buy electricity from the Georgia Power
Company and resell it to their own customers.
Georgia Power’s rates to these rural electric co
operatives and city-owned electric systems are
regulated by the Federal Power Commission in
Washington, D. C.
The company will seek an increase of less than
one-fourth of a cent per kilowatt-hour. The new
rate would mean that a typical residential custo
mer using 600 kilowatt-hours a month would
have his bill raised by only about five cents a day,
if the full amount of the increase is passed along
to the customer.
First Rate Increase Ever
From their inception, the rural electric co
operatives have received full support from the
power company. And the company realizes the
cooperatives have made a great contribution to
the electrification of the state.
Rates under which the cooperatives are being
served were established in 1936 when the federal
rural electrification program first began. They
were made as low as possible in order to help
the cooperatives to become financially successful
as quickly as possible and as a means of assisting
farmers affected by depression conditions.
The city-owned power systems served by
Georgia Power Company also are buying electric
ity at prices established during depression years.
Rates to these two classifications of customers
have never been raised by the Georgia Power
Company. An increase now is essential if the
company is to continue to meet its obligation of
providing ample electricity for Georgia.
Rising Costs of Service
Materials, wages, taxes and interest costs have
spiralled drastically upward in recent years. Even
so, Georgia Power until now has never made an
attempt to pass on these increased costs to the
rural electric cooperatives and city-owned power
systems. As operating costs rose, the company
was able until recently to counter them by in
creased operating efficiencies.
Now, however, inflation has outstripped tech
nological advances. It is impossible to retain these
more than 30-year-old rates and meet the infla
tionary costs of the 1970’5.
Examples of rising costs include practically
time that supplemental
nitrogen should be
applied is when the corn
is 35 to 40 days old.
Nitrogen, which ac
counts for about 80
percent of the volume of
the earth’s atmosphere
is more subject to be
lost from the soil than
any of the other major
fertilizer elements.
Consequently, the most
effective time, to apply
it is near as possible to
the time of maximum
plant uptake.
There is a new publi
cation titled, “Nitroger?
available at the Exten
sion office to farmers
and others who are in
terested.
In 1969, the annual
employment gain was
2.0 million which ex
ceeded the average an
nual increases recorded
during the 1961-68 per
iod of sustained econo
mic expansion. This
increase raised the Na
tion’s total employment
to 77.0 million.
THE PEMBROKE JOURNAL, Thursday, May 28, 1970 -
Daughter of Former Citizen
Writes in Church Bulletin
*
If I had the power to
do whatever I choose,
I would turn the whole
world back to God. After
all, Isn’t that what we’re
all really searching for ?
Everyone today is in
terested in world peace.
They seem to believe
that they can accomplish
this goal by protest
marches or public ad
vertising.
There are some
people who think there
is no hope of attaining
such a goal, so they
simply “drop out” of
the world, and let other
people handle the pro
blems . ‘ ‘After all” they
try to justify them
selves, “There are
people who are paid to
worry about such pro
blems. I’m not. ..”
When war or a
national crisis breaks
out, people tend to
blame the president or
every item in the company budget. A lineman’s
salary that was $l3B a month in the mid-1930’s
now would be nearly six times that.
A wooden power pole that cost $6.82 in 1935
now costs $26.59. Copper wire has increased
from less than nine cents a pound to 60 cents
a pound. A single piece of transmission substation
equipment that cost SI,OOO in 1935 now costs
$4,150. Other wages, materials and supplies are
proportionately higher.
Another item that has soared is the cost of
taxes. Georgia Power Company, like other citi
zens, pays them at every level. In 1935, our tax
bills amounted to $216 million. Last year our city,
county, state and federal taxes added up to a
total of $5916 million.
We Must Build to Serve
The cost of borrowed money with which the
company must finance its new construction has
increased by 80 percent in just the past five years
and now has climbed to nearly nine percent. Not
only is the company having to pay the extremely
high interest r ates, but it also is forced to raise
money in ever-increasing amounts. Construction
costs for 1970 are estimated at $230 million,
compared to only $42 million in 1960 and $37
million in 1950.
The growth of the state and the great increase
in use of electricity mean that we must borrow
now and build now despite the inflationary con
ditions and unprecedented high interest rates.
Unregulated industries may raise their prices
as they see fit. But utilities must apply to govern
ment agencies before making any change in rates.
Therefore, the power company is making applica
tion to the Federal Power Commission, which has
sole jurisdiction over rates to city-owned systems
and rural electric cooperatives.
Depression-Day Rates in 1970
The adjustment is being sought at this level
because rates to these particular customers have
not been raised from depression levels and are
out of line with what customers served directly by
the company are paying.
The rural electric cooperatives and city-owned
power systems are valued customers. And it is
with reluctance that the company must ever raise
any rates. Under the present inflationary economic
conditions, however, these customers no longer
can be served at mid-1930 prices.
Georgia Power Company
A citizen wherever we serve®
other officials. But
who’s fault is it really?
The people are digging
their own graves. It’s
nobody’s fault but their
own.
Everyone is searching
for something, but most
people don’t know what
they’re searching for.
If they’d go to church
for reasons other than
gaining a good repu
tation, they would more
than likely find what
they’re searching for.
I think we should all
pray every chance we
get that the whole world
will soon turn back to
God, because whether
you like it or not, He’s
the only one who can
save us from this ter
ribe fate we’ve destined
ourselves to and the only
one who can grant us
peace.
