Peace Corps Seeks Young Men,
Women, for Quatemala Posts
The Peace Corps has sent out a call
for young men and women with farm
experience, 4-H or of FFA background
or other training in agriculture or
home economics to volunteer for
assignment in Quatemale.
For these assignments, the Peace
Corps is looking for young men or
women between the ages of 18 and 25
who have a farm background, 4-H or
FFA experience, or training in farm
cooperatives or college level training‘
in agriculture or home economics. |
Volunteers in Quatemala will not‘
be required to demonstrate very high
proficiency in any specific technical
field. They will try to show the peo
ple of that country how to better
their way of life through encourage
ment, gentle hints, convincing dem- |
onstrations and friendship. Volunteers
1 try to get the people with whom
g" work to experiment for them
selves and on their own to utilize the
human, financial and technical re
sources the country possesses,
The majority of farm families in
Quatemala live in the Indian heart
lands, where ancient traditions and
ignorance have restricted their de
veloping into a preductive force for
their country. Recently they have
become interested in developing their
lands and using more modern methods |
of farming.
Volunteers assist them in this task
by teaching agricultural and home
making techniques through 4-H Clubs.
Through demonstrations, they will in-
Dear Fellow Citizens: e
Between how and Christmas, all citizens of this county will have .
an opportunity to show just how much they appreciate their home town.
Have you ever really considered just how much the merchants and
business houses of Blakely mean to the peonle of this area? The
merchants and business people pay a good share of the taxes which
help to provide and maintain your schools, hospital, library and
various other city and county services. They contribute to the
various charitable organizations which make life happier for many
unfortunate people.
Should these merchants and business houses fail to prosper, they
would no longer be contributing to the maintenance and growth of
your town and county. Their employees would have to look elsewhere
for jobs and this would mean fewer people to pay for the many services
we all use and appreciate.
Now is the time to show your appreciation for the fine public spirit
ed merchants and business people of your community. Do it by spending
your money in your own home town. Money spent in some other town or city,
or in ordering from some catalog will not help your community to grow
and prosper. Money spent at home will help, and what helps your community,
helps you. Resolve now to do your Christmas shopping in your own home
town.
If we can help you by providing the cash to do the job, we will be .
pleased to have you call on us.
Cordially,
R . Dovrwas

There is a great need in the country
for developing credit facilities and

Six-Step Forest Management
Program Showing Results
With Early county farmers and
other timberland owners looking to
the woods for an increasing share of
total farm income, good forestry
management practices are becoming
more important. The six-step program
started in 1958 is already showing re
sults, and even closer attention to
these six management steps can help
our forests provide the increasd yield
we need.
Georgia's forests are yielding an in
come of about $l5O million a year to
woodland owners, This is income to
landowners from sales of their forest
products only, which is only a fraction
of the total economic value of the tre
mendous industry our forests support.
When all segments of the forest-re
lated industry are considered, it is
worth some S7OO million a year to the
state.
What does it take to keep this in
dustry going During 1961 Georgia
timberland owners harvested and sold
more than a billion board feet of
sawtimber, about five million cords of
pulpwood and over 600 thousand bar
rels of pine gum. In addition to these
three main products, several million
dollars worth of poles, piling, veneer
and other products were sold,
All indcatons are that this is a grow
ing indusiry. Georgia is in an excel
}lent position to benefit in a big way
Are acid soils and the lack of cal
cium in your soils the weak links in
our Big M Pasture Program?
County Agent Judson Cooper says
this is true of many Early county
pastures.
The county agent goes further and
points out that many farmers are buy
ing more high analysis fertilizeris
and better seed each year. But some
of these farmers are not applying
enough lime to insure this large in
vestment, he warns.
“Lime is the only material that cor
rects acid soil,” he declared. “Lime
supplies calcium which is so badly
needed in animal and human nutri
tion.
“Lime will increase the efficiency
of farm manures and mixd fertilizers.
It will improve the growth of bene
ficial soil organisms.
“The lack of lime results in poor
crops, poor feed returns, poor live
stock, poor family health and poor
living.
Acid soils are stealing Early coun
ty farm profits. These acid thieves
never rest. They work night and day
taking away pasture profits. You far
mers can protect yourselves against
thse losses by taking soil samples of
your pasture lands and then liming
them according to soil test recommen
dations.”
from this growth if it continues to
supply timber in the quality and quan
tity these forest-related industries
‘demand. It is vital that we keep our
forests in good production, and this
is what the six-step management pro
gram was planned to do.
Early county is now 45 percent for
est land, and 69 percent of Georgia’s
total area is now in forests. Many of
these acres are producing at one-half
capacity or less.
Iduring the next few weeks we
want to consider each of the six steps
of good forest management and what
‘they can mean toward improving the
county’s position—and that of indi
%vidual landowners—in the timber
'market.
' These steps are: (1) prevention and
control of fires. (2) reforestation of
idle land, (3) timber stand improve
ment, (4) diversified utilization, (5)
good harvesting practices and (6)
wise selling practices.
Our next article in this series will
deal with prevention and control of
forest fires—the first step in any for
est management program,

A Thought for Today . By: Edsel W. Bryan
“Caution is the oldest child of Wisdom. . . .”
Victor Hugo
Caution in itself is not wisdom, but often it is
born of wisdom. It is a simple matter to face into
incautious habits, acting and thinking on impulse,
and doing for the day with little studied regard for
the tomorrows which must follow.
It is the wisdom of living and experiencing that
instills in most people some degree of caution that
allows planning and foresight to anticipate and
meet the uncertanties ahead.
