F a r m ers a n d Consumers Consumers Bulletin 

VOLUME 57 NO. 2 

In December, I got actively 

involved in trying to influence 

President Barack Obama to 

appoint Georgia Congressman 

Sanford Bishop, Secretary of 

Agriculture. Although Bishop 

was not picked for the position, 

my support enabled me to meet 

this fine Congressman for the 

first time in his capitol hill 

office. Congressman Bishop is 

a Mobile native and Bishop 

State Community College in 

Mobile is named for his father, 

Sanford Bishop, Sr. To my surprise, 

Bishop's chief of staff is 

Phyllis Gray-Hallmon. Her 

brother, Jerome Gray, is one of 

my deputy commissioners of 

agriculture. 

Their late father, P.A. Gray, 

was a well-known vocational ag 

teacher in Conecuh County for 

February is Black History Month! 

SPARKS’ 

REMARKS 

Commissioner 

Ron Sparks 

many years. During the era of 

segregation "Professor Gray" 

(as he was called) succeeded in 

getting the local A & P Store in 

Evergreen, Alabama to buy and 

stock fresh vegetables grown 

by some of his ag boys. Their 

mother, Edith A. Gray, is a 

retired home economics teacher. 

At 98-years-old, some call her 

"the mother of Conecuh 

County." She still cooks for 

herself, goes to exercise classes 

two days a week, and still drives 

an American-made car. In 

December, 2005, Reid State 

Technical College in Evergreen, 

Alabama, honored Mrs. Gray's 

legacy in education by naming a 

new library and technology center 

after her. If you're traveling 

on I-65, the Edith A. Gray 

(continued on page 7) 

On the Header this Month: 

Featured on the header this month in honor of Black History 

Month, is a field of broccoli grown by Macon County farmer, 

Al Hooks. We are grateful for the significant contribution Mr. 

Hooks and his family have made to Alabama Agriculture over 

the years. As shown in the photo below, every summer Mr. 

Hooks brings a variety of his fresh, sustainable and organically 

grown produce to the department to sell to its employees.

SENSIBLE SAVINGS THROUGH 

TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES 

A primary responsibility of 

the Alabama Department of 

Agriculture and Industries' 

Certification and Training 

Office is the licensing of pest 

management professionals. In 

the past, the department accomplished 

this by providing applicator 

examinations on a quarterly 

basis at four monitored 

sites with all examinations being 

graded internally by hand. Hard 

copy/paper based examinations 

were the only method for an 

applicator to take an examination 

in the category or categories 

he/she wanted to perform 

work. 

Now a paperless and more 

efficient option is available by 

using computers. Testers will be 

free to take the test Monday 

through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 

p.m., and in some cases evening 

examinations are possible. The 

testing centers are located in 

geographically advantageous 

sites throughout the state to 

provide convenience for test 

takers. Testing centers are located 

in Athens, Tanner, Hanceville, 

Birmingham, Auburn, 

Dothan, and Mobile. Instant 

pass/fail notification and test 

scores by category are provided 

at testing centers. 

"Giving applicators the 

opportunity to take examinations 

by computer throughout 

the state is a huge accomplishment 

for our Pesticide 

Pictured above is Zakiya Varner demonstrating the new testing 

process to Tracy Oliver, employed by Cooks Pest Control in Auburn. 

Management Section," said 

Sparks. "They have worked 

hard to make it happen and they 

have succeeded. Computer 

based testing will allow applicators 

the convenience of taking 

the test in or near their home 

county and receiving instant 

scoring results. It is estimated 

that this change will save the 

state more than $44,000 annually 

that otherwise would have 

been spent to prepare and 

administer paper based tests." 

This program is just one of 

many practical changes made by 

the Pesticide Management 

Section in the last several years. 

Faye Golden and her staff have 

worked hard to utilize available 

information technology at the 

department; they have posted 

examination information, continuing 

education seminars, and 

renewal applications to the 

department's website which has 

led to improved services for 

pesticide applicators. 

Please contact the Certification 

and Training Office at 

334/240-7243 for additional 

information.

as an agricultural bird, you may use the NPIP book 

as a reference, it lists all poultry and agricultural type 

species. Examples of agricultural or poultry type 

birds are: chickens (all breeds of standard and bantam 

sizes), turkeys, ducks, peafowl, geese, quail, pheasant, 

guineas, chukars, swans, etc. For further clarification, or 

to participate in the NPIP program (a voluntary disease

Application of Municipal Biosolids 

Commissioner Ron Sparks 

and the Department of Agriculture 

& Industries staff have 

worked on an issue involving the 

application of municipal biosolids 

in Northwest Alabama for 

a number of months. Currently, 

municipal biosolids are being 

transferred via railway from New 

York to Leighton, AL where this 

material is further treated and 

land applied by Synagro 

Technologies, Inc. on various 

agricultural lands. 

Sparks has worked with 

local governmental officials 

within this area to find a responsible 

solution. "There has been 

positive response made in the 

past, but there needs to be a better 

understanding of the issue at 

hand," says Sparks. Over the past 

several months there have been 

numerous community meetings. 

The Department of Agriculture 

& Industries has limited 

jurisdiction on the compliance 

The Alabama FFA 

Association and the National 

FFA Organization will celebrate 

National FFA Week, 

February 21-28, 2009. The 

theme this year, "Step 

Up/Stand Out" embodies all 

the best about FFA members. 

The focus is to tell America 

about the great opportunities 

available in agriscience education 

for all youth. FFA is committed 

to developing character 

and leadership skills and 

preparing members for a lifetime 

of civic leadership and 

career success. Today, more 

of municipal biosolids; however, 

regardless of opinion this is a 

very complicated and sensitive 

issue. The State of Alabama 

eliminated funding to the 

Alabama Department Environmental 

Management (ADEM) 

for this program back in the 

1990's, since then this became a 

federal program, which is now 

governed by the Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA). 

"As Commissioner, I have 

done everything to help Synagro 

Technologies, Inc. and the residents 

of Northwest Alabama," 

added Sparks. "I do not support 

biosolid material from other 

states coming into Alabama. 

However, parts of Northwest 

Alabama have no other option. I 

will continue to work and help in 

anyway possible on this issue." 

The EPA can be contacted 

at 404/562-9748 if there is anything 

else to be reported on this 

issue. 

2009 National FFA Week 

than 300 career opportunities 

are available to students 

through agriscience education.

Sparks Remarks continued... 

(continued from page 1) 

Library and Technology Center 

is located off Exit 96 in 

Evergreen. It's that imposing 

two-story, beige brick building, 

with the red metal roof, and several 

flags flying out front. 

Incidentally, the vocational 

building where the Gray's taught 

thousands of students is still in 

use. It's now used as a learning 

resource center and is the site of 

the monthly school board meetings 

in Conecuh County. In 

2007, the vocational building 

was named for the late P.A. 

Gray. A historic marker was 

erected by the Conecuh County 

Training School Alumni 

Association, documenting the 

black teachers who taught ag 

and home ec classes there. 

The amazing tie-in here to 

this wonderful Black History 

Month story about family, 

comes when we recognize the 

incredible influence that this 

couple had over the agricultural 

community and families in 

Conecuh County. He taught 

farm families how to get better 

yields, rotate crops, prevent erosion, 

and grow healthier livestock. 

She taught them how to 

sew, decorate their homes, recycle 

the floral Purina feed sacks, 

care for babies, and properly 

can home-grown vegetables. 

The Gray's came to 

Alabama as students at 

Tuskegee Institute in the late 

1920s and early 1930s. He 

came from Tennessee. She 

came from Texas. They settled 

in Alabama after getting their 

first (and only) jobs in Conecuh 

County after college. They began 

their careers during the Great 

Depression and segregated education. 

Yet they succeeded. 

As I reflect upon the positives 

of our nation during these 

dire economic times, it surely 

must be a special time for Mrs. 

Gray that she has lived long 

enough to see an African 

American elected as president. 

As a student at Tuskegee 

Institute in 1932, she didn't have 

the right to vote. But as a member 

of the renowned Tuskegee 

Institute Choir, she sang at the 

White House for defeated 

President Herbert Hoover, and at 

Hyde Park, N.Y. for Presidentelect 

Franklin Roosevelt. Not 

many college students today can 

say that they've performed for 

two presidents. 

As Commissioner of 

Agriculture, I am proud and jealous 

of the fact that Mrs. Gray 

and the Tuskegee Institute Choir 

were able to perform for two 

American presidents in 1932, 

despite segregation. Likewise, I 

am proud and jealous of the fact 

that she was a student at 

Tuskegee Institute when Dr. 

George Washington Carver was 

there. Just imagine, she saw one 

of America's foremost scientists 

weekly, walking on campus and 

at chapel vesper services. In 

1896, Booker T. Washington 

recruited Carver to come to 

Alabama from Iowa, to head up 

Tuskegee Institute's Department 

of Agriculture. This was 

one year after Booker T. 

Washington had given his 

famous, but controversial 

speech on racial accommodation 

and achievement at the 

Atlanta Exposition. 

Carver's genius as a practical 

researcher helped improve 

the quality of life for thousands 

of Southern farmers and their 

families. His innovative ideas 

and techniques helped transform 

Southern agriculture from 

one-crop cotton dependency to 

using other soil-enriching 

crops, like peanuts and sweet 

potatoes. At Tuskegee, Carver 

began a "movable school" project 

whereby he took and 

demonstrated his techniques of 

organic gardening, canning, and 

curing meat to farmers in their 

own communities. Isn't it 

ironic that President Barack 

Obama has selected an Iowan 

and former Governor Thomas 

Vilsack as the Secretary of 

Agriculture, who said that he will 

"work to boost the economies of 

farm communities, promote 

nutritious foods and help poor 

families put meals on the table," 

if confirmed. As an ag scientist 

and native of Iowa, too, Carver 

served our nation well a century 

ago, doing the same thing 

that Vilsack wants to do. 

What's remarkable is that 

George Washington Carver did 

it for 47 years at Tuskegee 

Institute, on a salary of $125.00 

a month. On January 5, 1948, 

the U.S. Postal Service honored 

Dr. Carver with a 3 cent 

postage stamp.
