15. Safley Safley Says: Vice- President, Commerce 1. Union Bank Many lawmakers often experience frustration as it relates 1 to fertilization of the grass. As has been said so many times, plant food may be applied to the lawn at any time. This, like so many other yard tasks, is perhaps a preferred time for doing the job.
In order to get the maximum effect from an application of commercial fertilizer, one should be prepared to apply sometime in February or March. This is the time for the material to go into solution and help give the grass a speedy recovery SAFLEY from the winter dormant season. It is also late enough that very little, if any, of the nitrogen will be lost because of leaching. The one big problem about adding fertilizer between now and growing time is the fact we will be feeding the weeds just as well the grass. For some reason it appears that as weeds or unwanted plants in the lawn respond readily and grow faster in the spring than more many of the grasses.
For this reason, thought should be given to a method whereby the weeds, undesirable clovers and the like might be eliminated. Most of these can be controlled through weed chemicals which are available at garden suppliers. The easiest time to kill them is when they are at the youngest stage and when temperature is high enough to stimuate growth. Chemicals which are capable of killing weeds are quite often hazardous to broad-leaf shrubs. This means the chemicals should be applied only when there is practically no wind blowing.
In order that one will not be guessing as to the amount of fertilizer to apply, it would be a good idea to have the soil tested. This can be done at the U.T. Soil Testing Laboratory, P.O. Box 11019, Nashville 37211. Your County Agriculture Extension office, Soil Conservation Service office, vocational agriculture teacher and others will be able to the proper method for taking the give you sample for analysis.
It is inexpensive and could save money. Provided as a public service by COMMERCE UNION BANK THE NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN, Saturday, Feb. 5, 1972 The utilities board decided to charge the sewer on the changes after considerable study. Burt said the change was necessitated by a deficit in the operation of the sewerage system of some $4760 during the last six months since the disposal plan went i into operation. As a result, he said, the system is being forced to borrow $10,000 to meet current expenses.
Increasing the sewage disposal rates is expected to up the revenue of the sewerage system from $99,041 to $120,855 annually, Burt said. Lower rates will reduce revenue of the Winchester power system from $746,900 yearly to $726,000, based on 1971 statistics. The change will add about 46 cents per month to a minimum water-sewer bill. For custtmers using 40000 gallons of water per month, the sewage disposal charge will be hiked from $3.64 to $4.48. The lowered power rate will cut consumers' bills from $14.14 to $13.71 for 1000 kilowatts of power.
Torrence Asks State Tax Role Joe Torrence, Metro finance director proposed yesterday that the state collect the Tennessee business tax for local governments if they so desire. And, he said, the State Revenue Department for the rest of this year should be required to furnish a list of business tax-payers and the amount of tax due to local tax collection officials. TORRENCE MADE the proposal at a hearing, conducted by the Fiscal Review Committee of the legislature, seeking to get local officials' views on closing loopholes in the 1971 tax. The committee, meeting last week in Nashville, agreed to several amendments to the measure, which replaced with one tax hundreds of privilege taxes and fees formerly required of merchants and, in addition, replaced the tax on the value of a merchant's wares with a tax on his gross receipts. Since its passage, however, businessmen have contended the statute has been enforced in a hit or miss, discriminatory fashion.
And large urban areas, including Nashville, contend the tax has robbed them of millions of dollars in revenue. "The state should provide for the administration of the business tax act for local governments on an optional basis in further years," Torrence said, taking over the collection for local governments much like it now collects local sales tax."
