Department of Agriculture for the 1957 marketing year beginning April 1, 1957. These prices are the same as those for the 1955 and 1956 marketing years. Approximately $55 million dollars in shorn wool and lamb and yearling (pulled wool compensating) payments had been made through Aug. 24 on producers 1953 marketings. These payments make up the difference between the 62-cent-incentive (Continued On Page 4) Destroy Cotton Stalks Now Specialists Urge Rains throughout the State in recent weeks has caused cotton plants to begin a second growth. This can cause trouble for the 1957 cotton crop according to cot- ton specialists, W. H. Sell and D. L. Bran- yon. The specialists pointed out that this second growth not only uses residual fertilizer that may be left in the soil for a future crop, but offers an excellent food supp.y and breeding place for boll weevils and diseases of cotton. A boll weevil that is healthy and well fed when winter be- Farm Boys At Work To Stamp Out Disease By PHIL CAMPBELL Commissioner of Agriculture The Grayson FFA Chapter is doing an outstanding job of helping stamp out brucellosis or Bangs disease among cat- tle herds in its area of Gwinnett County. The program first got underway when the dangers of brucellosis infection in cat- tle were first taught to members of the Grayson FFA Chapter and explained at two adult farm meetings in which the lo- cal veterinarian, Dr. W. A. Elinburg, Jr. participated. Later when the hracellosis eradication | program was enlarged and the State De- partment of Agriculture began its drive to make Georgia brucellosis free by 1960, the Grayson chapter decided to make the program one of its cooperative activities. Chapter members contacted Dr. Elin- burg and worked out a testing schedule whereby he agreed to go anywhere in the community to test cattle. Then the Future Farmers of Grayson really got to work. Each member agreed to sell the program to his parents and his. neighbors, keep them informed of test dates and urge them to have all their cat- tle ready for test on that particular date. The boys keep records which include the names of the farmers anc number of head of cattle for testing and these records are turned in by each FFA member for con- solidation. When records show approximately 100 cows located and consigned to test a test date is set. Two days previous to the test date a post card is sent to each farmer concerned reminding him of the date for testing and urginghim to be sure his cat- tle ave penned up so that the testing can be done as quickly as possible. As the day of testing nears Vo-Ag teacher L. J, Williams takes the names of all the farmers and makes up a travel list. He then goes with the veterinarian to each farm and assists him in any way he can as the tests are made. In just three days, through this plan- ned program, brucellosis tests were made on an estimated 90 percent of the cows in A E EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI + BROILERS e NAVAL STORES ae On Page 4) 1 (Continued On Page 4), (Continued On Page 4) e Georgia Georgia, First: MPI RE STATE OF THE SOUTH _ PEANUTS e PEACHES e PIMIENTO PEPPER IMPROVED PECANS i NCPR een me fay S ? fa PAGE TWO GEORGIA MARKET BULLETIN| Published weekly at 114-122 Pace St. Covington, Ga., by Georgia Department of Agriculture.
