Cotton farm operators were
reminded of the fast-approach-
ing deadline for signing up to
take part in the 1966 upland
cotton program. The last day

tion is Friday, April 1.
L. B. Creel, County Chair-
man, Agricultural Stabilization

emphasizes the Importance of
signing up before the deadline.
Program benefits include di-
version payments and price-
support payments in addition
to the regular cotton price-
support loan. But all program
benefits, including the cotton
loan, will be available only to
farmers who sign up and then
carry out the intentions indicat-
ed in the application.
Cotton farmers on the larger
farms take part in the program
by reducing their,cotton plant-

Chemicals Can

Against Weeds
Weed control in cotton, al-
ways a major problem, may be
even more so this year in parts
of the state because of the
moisture situation. Wet fields
have kept land preparation at
a snail’s pace and weeds and
grass growing, says Fred C.
Elliott, Extension cotton spe-
cialist at Texas AaM Univer-
sity.
But, he adds, chemicals are
available which can be used at
planting time or later after the
cotton is up and growing. still

says, is the rotary hoe equipped

MRS. EUBANKS,
EARLY SANGER

pel at Sanger. Texas for Mrs.
Rose Creager Eubanks, 74, who
died in her home after a ling-
ering illness. Burial was in the
Sanger Cemetery.
Mrs. Eubanks was born and
reared in Young County and
moved to Sanger with her par-
ents. the late Mr. and Mrs.
Jasper Lisle. She attended
Sanger schools.
Mrs. Eubanks was a relative
of Mrs. Lillie Elkins of this

chemicals, Elliott says the fol-
lowing are recommended for
use in Texas, caparol, CIPC.
dacthal, diuron, herban, mon-

commendations on the amounts
to use and the kind of soils
each works best on, available
from the offices of county
agents, Elliott emphasizes the
effectiveness of the materials
depend upon a proper appli-
cation job and the use of the
proper amount of the chemi-
cal.

Growers were reminded to-
day that April 1 is the last day
for filing applications to take
part in the 1966 feed grain pro-
gram.
L. B. Creel, Chairman, Agri-
cultural Stabilization and Con-
servation Count) Committee,
points out that only growers who
participate in the program will
be eligible for price support on
their 1966 crops of corn, barley,
and grain sorghums. As last
year, the support is made avail-
able through loans. purchases,
and price-support payments.
Besides qualify ing for price-
support loans, purchases, and
payments, the participating
growers also earns a diversion
pay ment for shifting part ot his
feed grain base to a conserv-
ing use, the pay ment does not
apply to the first 20-percent
diversion except on farms with
small bases. The price-support
payments may be earned on the
projected production from an
acreage up to 50 percent of the
total feed grain base for the
farm by planting one or more
of the feed grains corn, gram
sorghums, or barley, or by
planting one or more of the feed
grains corn, grain sorghums, or
throughout the growing season.
Lawns should receive an ap-
plication of complete fertilizer
in the spring and again in early
fall.
The spring application on
Bermuda, St. Augustine and
zoysia should be made about
the time the grass begins to
grow, says the county agent.
The fall application of com-
plete fertilizer should be made
about 30 days before the average
date of the first frost, he adds.
Generally a fertilizer with a
1-1-1 or a 2-1-1 ratio should
be used and applied at the rate
of 2 pounds of actual nitrogen
per 1,000 square feet.
Bermuda, St. Augustine and
zoysia lawns should also re-
ceiue 1 pound of actual nitrogen
per 1,000 square feet every 30-
40 days during the growing sea-
son to keep them green and
growing vigorously, says Mc-
Carroll.
Nitrogen is the key element •
In turf production. It produces
vegetative growth and gives the
plant a deep green color. Phos-
phorus stimulates development
of a good root System and
potassium affects the physio-
logical processes of the plant,
explains the county agent.
A deficiency of nitrogen
causes stunted plant growth.
The leaves are relatively small,
thin and yellowish green to yel-
low, resulting In a condition
often referred to as "firing,"
says the agent. Phosphorus de-
ficiency causes slow growth of
the entire plant and the leaves
to be an unhealthy dark green
in color with irregularly dis-
tributed brown patches showing
drying up and taking on a brown-
ish color.
McCarroll says he has avail-
able detailed information at his
office on many lawn problems
and their solutions and invites
interested homeowners to come

plus a surfactant, herbicidal
naphthas, sodium dalaphon, and
various oils for spot treating
Johnson grass. Elliott says
flame cultivators may also be
used on small weeds after the
cotton is 8-10 inches tall and
the stalk diameter around 3/16
ot an inch.
Because of the complications
involved in using chemicals in
agriculture, Elliott recom-
mends that producers contact
the local county agent for de-
tanls on their use.
