FARMERS & CONSUMERS Georgia Department of Agriculture Tommy Irvin, Commissioner IVISlKwl DU11C 1111 Volume 61 Gem Common Problems Common Resources As President of the Georgia Business & Industry Association, I'm concerned with the problems facing businessmen in our state. Frequently, as I look across the street from my office at GBIA to the Georgia Department of Agriculture Building, I realize that businessmen and farmers share common problems and common resources for solving those problems. One of the primary concerns today of both farmers and bu- sinessmen is over - regulation by government. As Federal government monetary policies create dual crises of inflation and recession, farmers are losing money producing food that consumers may not be able to afford to buy. Another common problem area is the Occupational Safety and Health (Our guest columnist this week is Gene Dyson, President, Georgia Business and Industry Association, 181 Washington St., S. W., Atlanta 30303.)______________ Act (OSHA), which encompasses the noble idea of safety in our plants and on our farms, but has been inadequately administered and unclearly defined. The lack of planning by government has resulted in higher costs of government services, which has resulted in additional costs which are often passed off to agribusiness in the form of higher taxes, increased fuel costs and lower market prices for products. Collectively, farmers and businessmen must speak with a stronger voice. They both have a committment to the economic wellbeing of our state and nation, and are responsible for the production and distribution of all the goods and services that serve our people. By voicing their opinions on legislation and governmental controls businessmen and farmers can have a more significant impact on the direction of our national policies. Working together, both groups can make a positive contribution to the people they serve. The realization by farmers and businessmen that they enjoy a common bond is the first step toward more equitable treatment on the state and national level.

Humans could but it is highly unlikely as humans probably wouldn't ignore an open wound to the extent that an adult fly could lay eggs, larvae and develop within the wound. Any animal can host screwworms. Beth Holand, (left) the new Georgia Poultry Princess, receives her trophy from Marilyn Brame, the 1974-75 Princess. Both are students at the University of Georgia.

The Georgia Department of Agriculture is opening a new and thoroughly modern Farmers' Market in Macon, Georgia. The original Macon market was built in 1936, and immediately enjoyed such popularity that soon farmers and officials were wanting something bigger and better. War, location and economic problems delayed the project. But today, under the leadership of Commissioner of Agriculture Tommy Irvin, Asst. Comm. Robert Ray, (former Macon Market Manager), E. L. Brinson, Markets Director and Ed Mathis, manager of the Macon facility, that dream has come true in a big way. Ideally located off Eisenhower parkway on Oglesby Drive, the three million dollar market is accessible, spacious, and consumer oriented with a mall type design. The market contains seven buildings: administrative offices, two dealer sheds, two farmers' malls, a nursery-greenhouse and a special area for watermelons. For the present, the wholesalers will remain at the old market site. Farmers and dealers will find their facilities easily accessible, conveniently designed and properly serviced to maintain appearance and freshness. Consumers will see the merging of the best of two worlds, the flavor and fun of shopping at a farmers' market with the comforts, beauty and convenience of a shopping mall. The malls also contain 1 80 shops some of which are already leased and ready with western clothes, meats, specialty foods, restaurant and other items. Local civic and home economist groups will find the large conference room equipped with stage and modern kitchen an excellent meeting place. Commissioner Irvin extends to all Georgians a hearty invitation to come to the new Macon Farmers' Market Sunday and join in celebrating a dream come true. There will be free watermelon and a tour of the unique and beautiful facilities. See Page 7 for Tobacco Market Schedule Page 2 Dear Editor: In the June 25th issue of the BULLETIN, you ran an article on the Japanese Beetle and recommended the use of Sevin on corn. We are experiencing our fourth year with the beetles in Gilmer county and find the damage to be confined to the silk on corn, and find Sevin applied to the silks is sufficient and does not harm the honey bees. Last year we lost a big percentage of bees because of Sevin being applied to the tassel of corn. As bees are valuable pollinators of almost all trees and plants, as well as honey producers, we should take all possible precautions to protect them. Sincerely, Hugh Puckett Route 2, Box 352 Ellijay, Ga. 30540 (Ed.'s note: Although this method is impractical for a large acreage of corn as Sevin would have to be broadcasted, it is fine for the home gardener with only a small amount of corn.)

While most herbal concoctions are poohpoohed today, comfrey's fan club will not discredit the herb. Now this is not to say that the MARKET BULLETIN is recommending or is not recommending any folk remedy. We include them in our "What Is" articles only for your interest and enjoyment. Comfrey is affectionately known, as the "healing herb" because it has been used in practically every known ailment. The entire plant is nonpoisonous roots, stem, leaves, flowers. Since the plant is harmless, the dosage is not critical. Comfrey users claim that they have used the wild plant in healing broken bones, hence the nickname "knitbone". Chemical analysis has revealed that comfrey is high in calcium, potassium, and phosphorus elements that should be present for the healing process to take place. Old timers claimed that a concoction of comfrey should be taken internally to speed the "boneknitting". More popular is the notion that comfrey poultices help reduce swelling where a break might have occurred. To us a pot of comfrey boiling over an open fire conjures up fantasies of little old ladies in black hats. To many, it meant relief from stomach troubles, coughs, and bronchitis. This formula is recommended by "pine nuts" himself, Euell Gibbons: put one pint of milk in the top of a double boiler, add one ounce of the crushed or ground root, and cook over boiling water for 30 minutes. Strain and take in four ounce doses every two hours. As an external poultice, the leaves and roots should be boiled, mashed, and cooled, then bandaged to the affected part. Since it is not a native plant, we have no tales of Indian ingenuity to report. Valera Jessee Jim Burns, Griffin, has taken top honors at the thirteenth annual Natural Resources Conservation Workshop at Abraham Baldwin College, Tifton. Dr. Jim Box presented a rifle to the winner. A plaque and .a 350 dollar scholar ship to any college in Georgia was also presented to Jim. THE MARKET BULLETIN A Smart Homemaker Buys... THE RIGHT TYPE THE RIGHT QUANTITY, THE RIGHT QUALITY. (in canned goods...the right style pack) FOR YOUR FAMIBr'S TASTE ami SIZE FOR VOUR STORAGE FACILITIES AND FUTURE REQUIREMENTS BEST BUT BEST BUT FOR USE AS A FOR USE IN VEGETABLE SPAGHETTI SAUCE Today, more than ever, it is necessary to be a wise homemaker, a smart shopper. This is as true of carpets as of tomatoes. For example, in buying a carpet, do you want wool, cotton, or perhaps one of the synthetic fibers? By checking the properties and performance of each, and the use for which it is intended, a wise decision can be made. Quantity here refers to whether you buy an area rug or wall-to-wall carpeting. Each has advantages, but only you can say which will suit your needs and taste. What quality you look for is again determined by needs. Is the carpet for a room where hard wear is expected, or for an area where wearing qualities may not be as important? What will be the cost of upkeep? Fortunately, there are excellent products in all price ranges. The wise buyer keeps a cool head and refrains from buying things without thought. However, she does keep her eyes open for certain items she has been planning for, and buys them wherever she finds them and has provided for them in the family budget. She maintains a true sense of values. She refuses to be drawn into competition with her'friends and neighbors in an attempt to gain status.

Department of Agriculture has announced changes in its regulations for paying indemnity to owners of cattle destroyed because of brucellosis. The revised rules became effective June 26. Changes in the brucellosis indemnity rules will: Allow indemnity payments for nonregistered (grade) bulls affected with brucellosis. Formerly, no indemnity was paid for these bulls. Limit to 15 days the extension periods which may be allowed for each of the following: identifying infected cattle; destroying infected and exposed cattle; and cleaning and disinfecting contaminated premises. Normally, only 15 days are allowed to perform each of the above tasks. However, when an extension is approved, a total of 30 days may be allowed. Formerly, there were no set limits to extension periods which could be authorized. The revised indemnity rules for brucellosis also clarify conditions under which indemnity payments are made when an entire herd is destroyed because of exposure to the disease.

Retail outlets that have normally carried home canning supplies in the past are the only ones being allocated supplies. While the anticipated supply situation is a tight one, it appears that if home canners buy just what they need, there will be enough for everyone. The Georgia Experiment Station, Experiment, will hold open house July 16 from 2 until 8 p.m. to celebrate the Agricultural Experiment Stations' Centennial and the U. S. Bi-Centennial. The open house will be held in Stuckey Auditorium. * Georgia's Peanuts Georgia's peanut growers produce over 42% of the nation's total peanut supply. Much of Georgia's peanut crop goes into the manufacture of peanut butter.
