FARMERS & CONSUMERS Tommy /rvin, Commissioner Georgia Department of Agriculture Market Bulletin Volume 59 P. L. Cummins Feed Association Gets Involved The Georgia Feed Association, Inc., has not only experienced a tremendous growth since its foun- ding in 1940, but more importantly has become increasingly involved in truly representing the feed industry in the state of Georgia. Its growth from 45 members in 1940 to 165 in 1973 parallels the growth of the feed industry during this period. The Association has for many /ears worked_very closely with the Georgia De- partment of Ag- riculture, ke- eping it advis- i|f ed of problems arising concer- ning feed rules I and regulations, sales tax, grain grading, to na- _ me a few. Its members and directors include every facet of the feed industry, i.e., brokers, equipment and ingredient suppliers, transportation represen- tatives, in addition to feed manufac- turers. The Georgia Feed Association is a long time member of the American (Our guest columnist this week is P. L. Cummins, President, Georgia Feed Association, Inc., 1737 Waverland Circle, Macon 31201.) Feed Manufacturers Association and is active in the programs of the national organization. Other activities include the spon- sorship of the famous Georgia Nutrition Conference held each February in Atlanta. This conference not only attracts some of the country's more outstanding nutritionists as speakers, but usually has at least one speaker from outside the U.S. Art Lueptow initiated a Grain Grading School held in Valdosta this spring which was well received by those attending. This school will be held again in the spring of 1974. An annual $1,000 award toward a graduate scholarship for research work in poultry or dairy science is offered to a deserving student at the University of Georgia each year, as well as supporting other worthy projects involving agriculture in the state of Georgia. The Association had its annual convention at Ponte Vedra, Florida, in late June which was attended by 108 men with their wives and 57 children. M. C. Leslie, Program Chairman, presented an excellent panel of speakers covering timely subjects such as price freeze, new state and federal regulations concerning feed and grain and forward contracting of feed ingredients. The Association's next convention will again be in Ponte Vedra, Florida, in June, 1974, preceeded by two Board of Directors meetings, the first in Athens in October, 1973, followed by a Board meeting during the Georgia Nutrition Conference in February, 1974. Wednesday, October 3, 1973 Number 40 Pine Beetle Still Killing Forester Herb Darley of the Georgia Forestry Commission is explaining the destruction of the pine beetle to a Georgia landowner. The Southern pine beetle has been on the rampage in Georgia's forests this summer and last causing more damage in two years than all forest fires in the past 15 years. Areas hardest hit are Clark, Elbert, Franklin, Hall, Hart, Madison, and Oconee counties. The landowner must help detect and destroy this beetle before Georgia's pine industry is further depleted. For information as to what you can do, contact your local forestry unit.

Of particular interest to Georgia equine owners and dealers are the following regulations: (1) Equidae (horses, mules, ponies, and spotted-asses) originating in a state where the disease is not known to exist, but which have been vaccinated against Venezuelan equine encephalomyelitis, must be accompanied by a certificate signed (Continued On Page 10) Charity Horse Show An all-breed South-eastern Charity Horse Show will be held at Stone Mountain Park October 4, 5, 6 for the benefit of the Georgia Heart Association, DeKalb unit. A boundary line is being marked around the beetle infested area. All infested trees are clearly marked so they can be cut.____________ The beetle spreads very rapidly and kills large areas of timber in a very short time. A new brood is produced about every 6 weeks. Farmers Still Face Problem In Obtaining Lime For Fall Many Georgia farmers were unable to obtain lime last fall and winter primarily due to transportation problems brought on by the movement of grain to foreign markets. The problem was particularly acute in relation to obtaining dolomitic lime. The outlook for obtaining lime in 1973-74 has improved somewhat over last year, but transportation problems still loom as a major problem in farmers obtaining lime when needed, particularly dolomitic lime. Moisture Testers Must Be Registered All moisture testers and other devices used to determine the moisture content of grain offered for sale must be registered with the Georgia Department of Agriculture. Operators of moisture testing equipment must also be licensed by the department. If you are operating equipment for the testing of moisture that has not been registered, please contact the Department of Agriculture im- mediately. __ Number One Crop Peanuts are Georgia's number one commodity with a crop value for 1972 of over $228 million. Georgia produces 42% of the nation's peanuts "Fall application of lime is the farmers key to taking care of his lime needs for the following reasons: Generally: 1. Lime dealers have an accumulated stockpile of lime at this time. 2. They also have more spreader trucks and time available for (This is the second in a series of five articles on fertilizer and fertilization recommendations for Georgia farms.)_____________ lime spreading than in the spring of the year when their major concern is spreading mixed fertilizer. 3. Farm fields are generally in good physical condition in the fall for spreading lime. 4. The most important reasons (Continued On Page 10) Page 2 Dear Editor: I think my cow is rather unusual. She is a 22 year old Guernsey and recently gave birth to a calf. I got the animal when she was only a day old calf from a farm in Baxley. I used her as a milk cow, getting 1 1/2 to 2 gallons of milk a day; she has had at least 17 calves and is still pert and healthy. However, I do not plan to have her bred again because of her age. Mr. G. E. Pye Route 1, Odum, Georgia (Editor's note: We checked with our veterinarian and although we do not know if it is a record, we certainly think your cow is unusual and we appreciate you sharing it with our readers.) Dear Editor: Please put a piece in the BULLETIN to reach the lan downer and farmer. They need to be alerted to what could happen unless the pine bark beetle is stopped. In 1998 the scene could be: Little Girl: Grandpa, what tree Is that drawn on Stone Mountain? Grandpa: Pine, honey. Once it covered our country, growing thrifty, hardy and proud over millions of acres. It was our most valuable tree, growing well on upland and lowland, rich land and poor land. Its lumber built our homes and Its wood filled our stores with many useful products. It was the foremost producer in our state, being harvested the year around by the truck and trainload. And it planted and grew by itself; all we had to do was come in and harvest it. Little Girl: What happened to it, Grandpa? Grandpa: A bug came along and killed it to the last tree. Little Girl: But couldn't people have saved it? Grandpa: They could have if they would have. They should have. Robert Todd Winterville, Georgia 30683 (Editor's Note: Thank you, Mr. Todd, we certainly agree and have therefore written the article that appears on Page 1 concerning the devastation the pine bark beetle has wrought.) (Editor's note: We have had one reply to the "Letter" from Mrs. Alda Higdon regarding the origin of the term "croaker-sack". One of our readers has advised that when folks went frog-gig gin the burlap bugs they used to put the croakers in consequently came to be known as "croaker-sacks". Dear Editor: Thank you for putting Mrs. Virginia Bonner Samford's poem "Patchwork Memories" into print. It was beautiful. I cried. Mrs. Weona Cleveland Dear Editor: I had five cows and one bull stolen a few days ago and I wanted to warn other farmers that rustling is still going on and you should take precautions to protect your animals. Harry Ferguson Route 1, Rockmart, Georgia (Editor's note: Such reports are not uncommon these days. If you know anything about rustling incidents or if some of your herd has been rustled, please contact the State Veterinarian, Georgia Department of Agriculture, 19 Hunter St., SW, Atlanta, Georgia 30334.)

Wednesday, October 3, 1973 Humor 'Round The Barn Keeping up with the Jones' is next to impossible since their sense of direction isn't certain. Now take the Patriarch of the tribe, old grandpappy Jones. His social behavior lacks the essential attributes of a country gentleman. His formula for a batch of good old mountain dew, that could knock the pants off satan himself, has been the gossip of the Franklin community for fifty years. Long will be remembered the day grandma Jones en tertained her garden club. It was really a smashing hit when grandpappy Jones spiked her punch with his formula. After the second trip to the punch bowl, the meeting took on a definite tone of tongue wagging. The frank remarks ended with what granny termed as an out right disgrace to the community, that required the services of old sheriff Brown and several of the husbands to adjourn the proceedings for the day and escort the ladies home. Grandpappy knew well the wrath that would be brought down on his head if he hung around the house the next day when granny was steady on her feet, so at the break of day he grabbed his gun and he with old Blue headed for the hills. By midmorning grandpappy was plum tuckered out and headed for the house. He was fortunate to find granny had company. Now Bro. Jack had learned of granny's social disgrace (this was her way of putting it) by his wife's attendance at the garden club, and he had called to question the behavior of the ladies. Grandpappy came bouncing into the room shaking the pastor's hand as though he were welcoming a long lost buddy. Diverting the conversation to farming and topics of government grandpappy was hopeful the subject of the garden club wouldn't be mentioned again. Bro. Jack's schedule was over crowded for the day, so he never returned to the question at hand. Old grandpappy, as usual putting his foot into his mouth, assured Bro. Jack he would be in his pew come Sunday and was looking for ward to one of his good sermons. Well, Sunday morning rolled around and granny laid out grandpappy's suit along with her Sunday duds and preparation was made to attend church. Grandpappy was uneasy and hopeful granny wouldn't hold him to his com mitment but to church he found himself. Bro. Jack really preached one more sermon. The congregation was held spell bound. The sermon was so out pouring that old grandpappy made the remark as he pum ped hands with Bro. Jack that he had preached hellfire so strong that he even smelt the smoke. Poor old granny really didn't have the heart to tell grandpappy that little Joe Green had set fire to his Sunday School paper. Riding home grandpappy out of the blue asked granny just how lucky is a rabbit's foot, a four leaf clover or a horse shoe? Pretty lucky if you're a cottontail who can escape the hunter by putting all fours on the ground. Receiving a bouquet of red roses with just one four leaf clover certainly denotes you're a very special friend. While on the other hand, sent by your spouse, he is hopeful his luck will hold out and his hanky panky won't reach his wife's ears. Now a horse shoe should be your preferred charm. You're most likely to win any race if your horse is shoed with all four and rode by a winning jockey. Does that answer your questions? But a rabbit's foot, four leaf clover and a horse shoe only added weight to grandpappy's pockets for old granny was too smart to be taken in by the likes of grandpappy's bag of tricks. Dorothy H.

Page 9 Feeder's Prayer I've been looking at these steers for six months and a day They seem to be doing how well I can't say. I'm going to load them tomorrow; I'm going to kiss them good-bye. Then I'm going to the city And get a job till I die. I found $2 corn and $1 hay And stuffed them with protein till my bald head turned grey. I've chopped ice on Christmas And hauled water in July And toted bags on Thanksgiving Till I thought I would die. And then came Labor Day And it was a delight. I was out with a pitch fork From morning to night. I've fought quick droughts, lockjaw, ticks, flies, and founder. And bought high sounding drugs Till I was flat as a flounder. I've wished for fancy clothes Till I am blue in the face, And chased runaway steers All over the place. I've emptied the silo, And been kicked by a steer, And been banged around so often It's a wonder I'm here. My creditors are suing me, And the banker wants his too. If I ever had an extra dollar I wouldn't know what to do. Now I don't expect miracles And I don't like to hollar. But, please Lord, Let that market go up a quarter of a dollar.

Lime For Fall (Continued From Page 12) from the farmers viewpoint, is that lime should be applied at least three months prior to planting for the most effective results in neutralizing soil acidity. For these reasons farmers should plan on applying lime to fields where soil test results show a need for lime as soon as crops are harvested in the fall of the year. An alternative to using dolomitic lime on low magnesium soils is to apply calcitic lime as a liming material and supply the needed magnesium through the use of a soluble form of magnesium such as magnesium sulfate or sulfate of potash magnesia (trade names sulpomag and Kmag). These materials may be incorporated in the mixed fertilizer used. This is particularly true of sulfate of potash magnesia which may be used as a partial source of potassium in formulating a mixed fertilizer analysis. If soluble sources of magnesium are used as a source of magnesium they should be applied to the soil at the rate of at least 35 pounds of elemental magnesium per acre. P. J. Bergeaux Extension Agronomist THE MARKET BULLETIN Wednesday, October 3, 1973 Tax Threat (Continued From Page 1) point out that, in some counties in Georgia, farmers must pay over 70 per cent of all property taxes. In the past, agricultural land was presumably an adequate measure of an individual's ability to pay. The farmer generally accepted the tax because levies were low and most of the tax revenues were used for local government services. Now land usually earns its highest return when used for commercial or industrial purposes. Residential uses ordinarily have next priority, followed by cropland, pasture and forest use. The property tax is not as significant an expense for large commercial farmers, says Fred C. White, agricultural economics professor at the University of Georgia, as it is to farmers whose income is under $10,000. Although all farmers have problems when taxes take a large proportion of their income, the problem is intensified for farmers when property taxes represent a large proportion of their net farm income. According to U. S. census figures, the average farmer's net income in Georgia is only around $5,000, yet he pays more than $500 in property taxes alone. Returns to real estate have increased over the past decade, but property taxes have increased relatively faster. The only way foresters, dairymen, and farmers can make a profit from increased land values and taxes is to sell the land and quit farming. "It's as though they were being taxed for profits they should have made," one critic explains. The property tax system in Georgia is hurting small farmers in other ways too. Walter Harter, Cooperative Extension Service farm management specialist, notes that high taxes often discriminate against those who invest in buildings or planting orchards and forests. "It's almost impossible for a farmer to expand without being hurt by taxes. His only option is to invest in fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides and other improved management techniques," Harter says. One of the biggest problems Georgia's "highest and best use" property tax poses is urban sprawl. "Many communities have experienced leap-frog development which resulted in much farm land being isolated. An area formerly devoted to farming shifts to commercial, industrial, and residential uses," says Harter. "Then speculators start buying and holding large tracts of land in anticipation of future suburban growth. This suburban expansion has created new problems for agriculture. "As cities and towns stretch out and as more people take up residence in rural areas, these people demand services. Services must be financed, and often farm lands are made to bear the increased taxation that goes with the added services." Harter notes that urban sprawl alone is not responsible for taking prime land out of production. Interstate highways, with clusters of commercialization at each interchange, can also make the farmer's taxes jump by making his land more expensive. "Farmers who want to continue farming in the rural-urban fringe may be unable to do so because their agricultural income cannot support high taxes," White adds. Farm management experts point out that a person who depends on farming for a living experiences a decline in income when his land values rise due to higher property taxes, even though his net worth has increased. "Studies have shown that, under urban pressure, 10 to 27 per cent of rural-urban land lies idle. More than half of this land in the state was once productive farmland," says White. A tax relief would directly benefit farmers. Critics of the present system believe tax relief would also help the state's general economic picture, lowering costs of food production which could be passed on to the consumer. But as one expert points out, "If any tax could have been eliminated by adverse criticism, the property tax should have been eliminated long ago. It is so embedded in our political and economic institutions that changes in its structure occur slowly, if at all."

Straight Line | When do you gather, dry, store sunflower seed for winter months? Should they be crushed before placing in bird feeder? Also, do you have a recipe for preparing them for human consumption as a tasty snack? Mrs. D. B. , Trion The heads of sunflower seed should be allowed to dry where they are growing until the seed start to shatter from the ripened heads. The heads can then be cut and the seed thrashed and spread in the sun for air drying. After they are fully dried they can be stored in a refrigerator or freezer in a moisture proof container to prevent insect damage. The large seeded types of sunflower seed are usually grown for eating rather than the small black seeded type which is usually grown commercially for oil purposes. Sunflower seed need not be crushed before placing them in a bird feeder. We regret that we do not have any recipes for food made with sunflower seed; however, you might try one of the health food stores for assistance. B *** Is it necessary to dry up a cow between calves? How many months should they be dry? What is the best way to dry them up? Is it harmful to the unborn calf if they do not dry up? L. B., Mauk It is good management to allow a cow to dry for at least 60 days prior to calving. The best way to accomplish this is to cut her food intake down to about one-third what it is at present for about a week and to milk her at irregular intervals until her udder no longer fills up with milk. Allowing them to milk until the next calf is born could be damaging to the unborn calf in that it might cause nutritional deficiencies due to the milking during her last two months of pregnancy. * * * Please advise me as to the identification of the enclosed plant. We have noticed it in our garden lately and are wondering where it came from. Mrs. D. P., .Ringgold The plant you submitted is Cyperus Strigosus .L. (Sedge). Seeds of many weeds can lie dormant in the soil for many years and then germinate. The seeds of sedge are so small that they could have been transported by wind, water or even on the feet of birds. *** The other day I went out to trim a small oak tree and found these worms on several of the limbs. I destroyed them but wonder if you could identify them for me. P. S., Forsyth ' The insects you found are the larva of one of the handmaid moths. When they are disturbed, they raise both front and rear portions of their bodies. It is known to feed on many trees. *** I have two mares. A local vet gave them the E.E.E., or sleeping sickness shots. He said they must have two shots thirty days apart. I called him when the end of the month came and told him to give them the other shot, but have been unable to get him to give it to them. Is it true that the one shot is not any good without the other shot? J.

These range from new confections, new bakery products, new snack items, peanut flour, peanut milk, peanut ice cream, peanut flavored milkshakes, defatted peanuts, and peanuts in breakfast cereals to peanut protein, peanut lipoprotein, peanut protein isolates, polyunsaturated peanut fats, diabetic foods, and special foods for curing pellagra and haemophilia. Possiby no crop in the world has potentialities of being processed in as many ways and used in as many products as does peanuts."* A world-wide expansion in growing and consumption of peanuts has been underway for more than a decade. World production of peanuts is estimated at I 7.4 million metric tons (in -shell basis) of which the United States accounts for less than 1.4 million tons, or about six per cent. Countries that out-produce the United States (77.5 thousand tons shelled basis) are Nigeria (548.7 thousand tons), Senegal (181.1 thousand tons), Niger (160 thousand tons), and Republic of South Africa (89.1 thousand tons). Mainland China and Gambia are heavy producers of peanuts. Unfortunately a very large percentage of peanuts produced in undeveloped countries either molds or is eaten by insects or rats. Peanut butter is produced only in the United States, and accounts for about 55 per cent consumption of our edible peanuts. Most of the peanut products that are common in this country are unknown in most of the heavy peanut producing areas. There is a great deal of missionary work that can be done by World Food Organizations, in promoting production, processing and utilization of peanuts. Peanuts contain 47.5% fats, 28.5% protein, 4.5% sugars, 4% starch and 2.8% crude fiber. They also contain niacin, riboflavin, B vitamins, and others; as well as 26 minerals, particularly potassium, phosphorous, sulfur, calcium, and magnesium. These together with the highly acceptable flavor of peanuts makes them acceptable in hundreds of dishes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and between meals. The Georgia Peanut Commission has just completed its annual recipe contest in which teenagers and adults brought together at Abraham Bald- win College at Tifton, Ga. 300 products, all containing peanuts for the selection of winners. The winners and runner-up recipes will be given broad publicity. The recipes submitted this year along with those of previous years, including cakes, pies, custards, salads, ice cream, candies, snacks, soups, gravies, and puddings, form a tremendous backlog of Root plant cuttings now and you'll have inexpensive gifts at Christmas- time. **** Stop and think before you use the permanent press cycle on your washing machine.

Gently drive a small nail into the plaster. Remove the nail, fill the hole with steel wool then turn the screw in firmly. That way, the experts say, the screw should stay. J. G. Woodrdof presents Commissioner of Agriculture Tommy Irvin with a copy of his latest book on peanuts. formulas for using peanuts. A similar activity is the National Peanut Festival Recipe Contest held by the Alabama. Peanut Producers Association in Dothan. Prizes of $250, $125, go to the winners; and other prize money will go to others who participate. The Virginia Peanut Growers Association also promotes a wider use of peanuts in new products. All of these activities by consumers of all age groups is useful in promoting the use of peanuts in the diet. Salads, desserts, cookies, coffee cakes, casserole dishes, breads, and rolls may be made more nutritious by the addition of peanuts. Jams or preserves mixed with chopped or granulated peanuts make excellent toppings not only for coffee cakes and sweet rolls, but may be used on steamed puddings, fruit bettys, and similar desserts. Ice cream becomes more nutritious and has more appeal when generously sprinkled with peanuts. Creamed dishes, spaghetti and sauce favorites, and casseroles need the extra goodness that added peanuts can give. Sweet potato dishes are favorites when peanuts are used. Peanuts processed in the form you like, either blanched or unblanched, salted or roasted, may be obtained in practically any locality in the United States. It may be said that peanuts are the most unexploited and neglected food crop in the United States. The potentialities for developing additional food products, utilizing proteins, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and flavor of peanuts are as great as for any crop in the world. New techniques for identifying and separating peanut components open up possibilities for the organic chemist and food technologist to analyze and synthesize peanut products almost at will. Improvements in storage and transportation facilities make it possible to deliver peanuts and peanut products to any place in the world, at any time. The years ahead may witness new peanut food products not even dreamed of at the present time. **** Beginning the end of August all pajamas and nightgowns manufactured in sizes 0 to 6X have to be made of flame-resistant fabrics. It's estimated that in 1971 flaming fabrics caused 3,000 deaths and between 150,000 and 250,000 injuries. (* Taken from the Second Edition of Peanuts: Production, Processing. Products, by Dr. J. G.

Several friends have asked me to cut up their cows and hogs for their freezers and their own use. I would like to know if I must have a permit to do this. E. H., Dawson The Georgia Meat Inspection regulations include a provision of exemptions to exclude the owner of livestock from any butchering or processing on his own animals and on his own premises. When this work is performed in a central location by an individual other than the owner, then such premises would be subject to meat inspection regulations insofar as licensing, construction and'general sanitation. Your specific question concerning butchering and cutting animals for individuals on their premises is not specifically regulated. Several questions must be answered. For example, will you be going from farm to farm and assisting the animal owners on their own premises or will you be set up as a mobile slaughterer carrying such equipment with you? In the latter case, you would most likely be required to be licensed. Assisting the owner on his premises in slaughtering and cutting up would not require a license when conducted as so stated in your letter. *** Can you identify this insect for me? Mrs. J. M., Roswell Our Plant and Entomology Division has identified the insect as one of the Puss Caterpillars. It is a stinging caterpillar which can cause severe pain for twelve to fourteen hours if contac*t *is *made with its stinging antennae. Can you tell me anything about this insect? I found it on the floor. Is it poisonous? M. G., Dalton The insect you submitted to this office is one of our native scorpions. It has a painful sting, but is hardly as dangerous as it looks. *** I have a banana bush or plant. Will it live in this part of the state? It's about eighteen inches high. Must I keep it inside or out? Mrs. F. M., Carnesville Your banana plant should be removed from.the ground and taken indoors at the first sign of cold weather; otherwise it will not withstand the low tem- peratures. *** Yipes ... I have bats in my belfrey! How can I get them out of my house? Mrs. H. H., Colbert Our Extension Wildlife Specialist, Mr. R. L. Carlton, advises that mothballs or paradichlorobenzene crystals will sometimes act as a temporary repellent when scattered in the spaces used by bats. However, what is needed is to seal openings through which the bats are gaining entry to your home. During the evening, watch and observe where the bats are leaving the house. When certain all used openings are located and that all hats are out, seal the openings and secure any areas which may be used by the bats in the future. * * * I am enclosing a leaf from a very large and beautiful tree in our vicinity and we would hate for it to die, but that is what we believe is happening. There are numerous dead leaves on the tree and all of the leaves have these black spots on them. Several other trees appear to be affected the same way. Is there any way we can save this tree? Mrs. P. B., Grovetown Our Forestry Commission believes the leaf came from a sweetgum tree. This is a tree that occurs throughout Georgia and is highly valued as a timber tree as well as an ornamental tree. The sweetgum is a very vigorous tree and is not susceptible to many types of disease and insect, infestations. There is a disease called sweetgum blight that does kill this tree, but it is not found very often in Georgia. More than likely, the tree has some type of leaf spot or anthracnose fungus that attacks the leaves and will cause them to turn brown and drop from the tree. This has no permanent effect on the tree, however, and it should put on new leaves in late summer or next spring. If you would contact the Georgia Forestry unit nearest you they would be glad to send a forester out to your property and look at the tree. The Forestry Commission has an urban program in existence in various metropolitan areas, of which the primary purpose is to furnish the people of these areas assistance with shade or ornamental tree problems. This may be obtained by contacting the Georgia Forestry Commission in Atlanta. MAGNOLIA FLOWERS All Southern Magnolia trees have the potential of producing blossoms, but the time required for them to begin producing blossoms varies. This is due to seedling variation since almost all Southern Magnolias are obtained from seed. Some plants flower in the third or fourth year, however, most require a longer period of time. 1 DON'T FORGET!! 1 25 word limit on all notices, 1 including name and address. | Fall Farmland Edition Coming The Fall Farmland Edition is coming October 17.

October 3. 1973 I 0 0000O Lamb's-quarters has often been called muckweed, dungweed and fat hen, but these uncomplimentary names belie the plant's importance. Laboratory tests have recently revealed that lamb's-quarters contain more iron, protein and calcium than raw cabbage or spinach! As a member of the Chenopodiaceae family, lamb'squarters and other popular vegetables such as spinach and Swiss chard are relatives. Lamb'squarters was at one time a very popular vegetable in Europe but lost favor when spinach was introduced. Few people appreciate lamb's-quarters value as a nutritive vegetable; most regard it as a nuisance without redeeming properties. As a plant, it is not very attractive. It grows from 1 to 3 feet tall with a spire shape. The short, alternate branched stems may be reddish streaked or plain green. To prepare as a vegetable, cook the leaves as you would any other green. The young seedlings are also good in salads. The seeds of the plant resemble buckwheat in flavor and can be eaten raw. Valera Jessee On Pasture Land Bermudagrass and bahiagrass become dormant in mid-fall and the land is non-productive until spring. This can be changed. Overseeding about frost with adapted winter annual grasses and legumes will provide grazing for about 90 days while bermuda and bahia is resting. Rye or a mixture of rye and ryegrass are good crops for overseeding and adapted legume such as crimson clover or one of the arrowleaf clovers (yuchi or amclo) may be included with rye or ryegrass or they may be seeded alone. Overseeding cannot be early enough to provide fall grazing. Overseeding produces forage in late winter and spring. These management practices must be carried out for overseeding to be successful: 1. Bermudagrass or bahiagrass must not be in an inactive growth state. 2. Bermudagrass or bahiagrass growth must be grazed or clipped as low as possible (1 to 2 inches). 3. Nitrogen fertilizer must be ap- plied to rye or ryegrass as soon as the crop is up to a stand. A good overseed grass crop can use 100 pounds of actual nitrogen. Generally, overseeding ber- mudagrass is more successful than overseeding bahiagrass. Light disking enough to expose some soil or a seeder that will penetrate the soil is usually a more satisfactory seeding method; however, under good moisture condition on bermuda sod, successful crops are often established with no soil preparation. A more thorough disking or burning and light disking usually provides a successful overseed crop on bahia sod. Overseeding summer perennial crops with winter annuals is well adapted to a winter calving system for the beef producer. The overseed crops provide the much needed protein and high quality energy needed by the cow and calf before the bermudagrass and bahia begins to grow. Forage produced by the winter annuals should be grazed out or harvested by late spring to allow normal growth of the bermuda and bahia. W. H.
