Fertilizer usage on Van Zandt
farms and ranches is in-
creasing. According to the
Texas Feed and Fertilizer
Control Service there were
15,499 tons used from July 1,
1968 to June 30, 1969. From July
1, 1969 through June 30, 1970,
19,632 tons were applied to
farms and ranches in the
county. Bulk fertilizer usage is
on the increase. In 1968 and
1969, 6,897 tons of bulk fer-
tilizers was used while from
July, 1969 to June of ’70, 13,088
tons was used in the bulk form.
Bulk fertilizer is easier and
more economical to apply than
fertilizer in the sack. Van Zandt
fertilizer and lime dealers have
been doing an outstanding job of
providing good service to the
land owners in the county.

at 180 degrees F. for 30 minutes.
Clay pots should be thoroughly
washed and placed in the oven.
This heat treatment will kill
disease and insect organisms
and weed seed. But don’t
sterilize plastic pots, just wash
them with hot water. Use clean
tools and keep the hands clean
when doing the potting job or
the soil may be reinfected with
harmful organisms.
Of course, there is always and
easier way to do the job, go to
the garden supply center and
buy a prepared mix.

“And I’ve been really busy keeping you folks cool!”
"WHEW!
Throughout most of Texas, it’s been another
hot summer. But, in thousands of homes and
businesses, Reddy Kilowatt and electric air
conditioning have been on the job providing
cool comfort.
So, if your electric service bill is higher,
think of the many extra hours of work you've
asked Reddy to perform.
Electricity is still the biggest bargain in your
household budget!

agricultural income of
$13,019,000 for Van Zandt during
1969. Over $10,000,000 was from
the sale of livestock and
livestock products, while over
$2,000,000 was from crops. Rest
of the income was from
government payments.
Creep feeding is a manage-
ment tool in the production of
calves that depends on the
judgement of the individual
cattleman for its success.
The ultimate goal is to in-
crease profit. In most tests run
on creep feeding, figures are on
the wrong side of the profit
ledger for calves on good
pasture. Increased value of
feeder calves is seldom enough
to pay for the additional feed
and labor.
Performance testing shows
that the average creep-fed calf
gains one-tenth of a pound more
per day than his non-creep-fed
counterpart. This amounts to 25
pounds at weaning. However, if
put-on cost is greater than the
sale price, profits are lost.
Creep feeding varies widely
from farm to farm. If profits
are to be gained, the herd
manager must pay close at-
tention to several factors.
Feeders should be placed
where the herd congregates,
such as near water or shade. A
ready supply of clean, fresh,
inexpensive feed is a must at all
times. Winter creep-fed calves
will probably need a ration
containing 14 to 15 percent
protein. In summer on pasture,
a protein content of 12 percent is
sufficient.
In view of the present
situation creep feeding might
offer better possibilities than in
the more normal years. Stock-
men interested in more in-
formation on the subject are
invited to contact the County
Agricultural Agents office for a
copy of B-792, “Creep Feeding
Beef Calves.”
Late summer is the time to
repot house plants, but soil as it
comes from the garden is not
usually suitable for the potting
job.
As a suggestion mix two parts
of good garden loam, two parts
peat humus or shredded peat
moss and one part of sand. Well
rotted manure or shredded leaf
mold may be subsitutued for the
peat humus. This type of
mixture provides the three most
needed conditions for potted
plants—support, good soil
aeration, and ability to hold
water and plant nutrients.
After the potting mixture is
prepared, it should be placed in
a shallow pan less than six.
