Groundbreaking For SO Refinery Held Today

said, and the first contract. for
clearing the site, already has
been awarded.
One of the features of the re-
finery, Mississippi's largest, is
an $4,000 barrels-per-day $50
cracker. Announced two years
ago by California Research
Corporation, a subsidiary of
KYSO's parent company, Stan
dard Oil Company of California
the Isocracking process is ca
pable of making 103 barrels of
1O3-octane gasoline out of 100
barrels of fuel oil stock The pro-
cess is considered a major scien-
tific "break-through" by Cal
research, which has offered it
to other u. S. foreign Oil COM
panies under license.
KYSO's Pascagoula operation
will produce a full range of pc
troleum products for the COM
pany's present five-state mar
ket.
The refinery personnel will
be drawn as much as possible
from local population, Smith
indicated.
Work is also expected to be-
gin soon on improving a seven
mile-long channel to the Bayou
Cassotte area from the Gulf of
Mexico to permit passage of
tank ships up to $4,000 tons in
size. The tankers will be one of
the refinery's main lines of dis
tribution to tidewater terminals
and bulk plants throughout the
KYSO marketing area.
Pascagoula's principal source
of crude oil will be extensive
offshore and onshore oil fields
operated by its affiliate, The
California Company Division of
California Oil Company. another
Standard of California subsi-
diary.
The KYSO affiliate has been
particularly active in the Gulf
Coast offshore fields. in which
it pioneered exploration more
than 10 years ago. Production
from these fields during 1860
increased to $4,000 barrels a
Cay, approximately one9fourth
OF the industry's total produc-
ton from this source.
The crude oil will flow
through a proposed new 104-
mile pipe line to be built by a
new KYSO subsidiary, the Cal
KY Pipe Line Company, from
Ostrica, Louisiana, to Pascagou-
la. Present plans also call for
the refinery to be tied into the
Plantation Pipe Line. a products
carrier. in which KYSO has a
part interest. The Plantation
Pipe Line extends from LouiSi-
ana to the Carolinas, with a
lateral into Tennessee.
"By the time the refinery is
completed about the middle of
1868, we expect that these pipe
line systems. coupled with our
tanker operation. will play q
substantial role in development
of new markets adjoining OH
present area" Smith concluded.

commended to place 100 Dream

perly managed and fertllized
three hundred to four hundred
pounds of eatable fish can be
produced per acre each year.
The fish and fertilizer will not

Farmers Reminded To Establish Winter Crop

show cover crops reduce soil
loss by one-fourth, adds humus
TO the soil, aids internal drain
age, and increases water hold
ing capacity.
Mr.. Jordan suggests that each
year farmers plant approx
mately $50 of their row crop
land to a legume winter crop.
By only having $50 of the
lend devoted to cover crop, far
mers may work the remaining
part of their row croplard early
in the spring and permit the
cover crops to obtain maximum
growth. This rotation would al
SO result in each acre OF row
cropland having a winter cover
crop once every four years.
Farmers are urged to give i'm
mediate consideration to plant
ing cover crops since they must
be planted not later than De-
cember / for maximum results.
Through the Agricultural Con-
servation Program the Govern
ment offers to share the finan-
cial cost of purchasing cover
crop seed on a $3.50 basis with
the farmer. Those who desire
assistance through the ACP for
carrying out a conservation
practice should contact the
Holmes Asses County Office at
Lexington to file teir request
for Government cost-sharing.

Soil Samples

Soil Samples
| would like to urge each
farmer to take soil samples OF
his row cropland and pasture
land within the next 80 days.
There is only one way 10 know
the kind and amount Of fertlll-
ger your crops need for next
year. That way is by taking soil
samples and sending them to
Inc Soil Testing Laboratory at
State College. The analysis of
your soil may save you many
dollars on your fertilizer bill. 1t
may also cause you TO increase
your production 80 per cent or
more by applying the right kind
and amount of fertilizer per acre
If you wait until next spring
to take soil samples it will take
from l to 2 months to get your
results back, whereas at this
time of year the laboratory is
not rushed and you should *
pect to get your analysis back
in two weeks.
During the spring months
your soil is usually too wet to
apply lime to soil. If lime is
needed you will certainly save
on other fertilizer elements by
applying lime where needed.

most fields there is a hard pan
from 3 to 8 inches deep below

hard pan moisture will be stor-
ed into the sub soil that will be

the end of the year, and, in
most cases, average analysis
