Six-Step Forest Management
Program Showing Results
With Taylor County farmers
and other timberland owners
looking to the woods for an
increasing share of total farm
income, good forestry manage
ment practices are be
coming more important. The
six-step program started in

1958 is already showing results,
and even closer attention to
these six management steps
can help our forests provide
the increased yield we need.
Georgia’s forests are yield
ing an income of about $150
million at year to woodland
owners. This is income to
landowners from sales of their
forest prducts only, which is
only a fraction of the total
economic value of the tremen
dous industry our forests sup
port. When all segments of
the forest-related industry are
considered, it is worth some
$700 million a year to the state.
What does it take to keep this
industry going? During 1961
Georgia timberland owners
harvested and sold more than
a billion board feet of saw-

timber, about five millioncords
of pulpwood and over 600 thou
sand barrels of pine gum. In
addition to these three main
products, several million dol
lars worth of poles, piling, ve
neer and other products were
sold.
All indications are that this
is a growing industry. Georgia
is in an excellent position to
benefit in a big way from this
growth if it continues to supply
timber in the quality and quan
tity these forest-related in
dustries demand. It is vital
that we keep our forests in good
production, and this is what the
six-step management program
was planned to do.
Taylor County is now 82.2
percent forest land, and 69 per
cent of Georgia’s total area is
now in forests. Many of these
acres are producting at one-
half capacity or less.
During the next few weeks
we want to consider each of the
six steps of good forest man
agement and what they can mean
toward improving the county's
position—and that of individual
landowners—in the timber
market.
These steps are: (1) pre
vention and control of fires,
(2) reforestation of idle land,
(3) timber stand improvement,
(4) diversified utilization, (5)
good harvesting practices and
(6) wise selling practices.

Back on the shelf she placed
the book with a sigh. It was
too dull and uninteresting to
wade through. She didn’t feel
like reading anyway; in fact,
she was utterly bored, and didn’t
feel like doing anything.
The next night was different
—very different. At a party she
had met the kind of man she
could really go for. He seemed
interested in her too, and in the
weeks that followed they saw
more and more of each other,
until she was sure she loved
him.
One night he mentioned some
thing about a book he had writ
ten and somehow the title rang
a bell with her. Where had she

VETERANS ADMINISTRATION
Georgia reservists who were
called to active duty during the
Berlin crisis have been granted
additional time to complete
their education and rehabilita
tion training under a bill recent
ly signed into law by Presi
dent Kennedy.
The extension amounts to
equal time for services render
ed, according to A. W. Tate,
Manager, Veterans Admini
stration Regional Office, At
lanta, Gergia.
Reservists who were called
to active duty under Executive
Order before August 1, 1962,
and those whose enlistments
were extended, benefit under
this liberalization of the ori
ginal Korean GI Bill.
Similar extensions of dead
lines for training under the War
Orphans Educational Assist
ance Act are also granted to
orphans whose programs of
education are interrupted due
to certain conditions beyond
their control.
This is designed to aid or
phans who (a) because of per
sonal illness or sickness in
the immediate family suffer
financial hardship or (b)who are
working and are obliged to tem
porarily suspend their studies
because certain demands of
their job force them to drop
out of training, Mr. Tate ex
plained.
More information about these
Gl Bill amendments can be ob
tained at the Atlanta VA Re
gional Office.
TIP
When you buy nuts, remember
that the way they are packed
and treated affects the length
of them they remain high in
quality. In general, nuts in
the shell keep longer than shell
ed ones. Nut meats in vacuum
containers have a longer shelf
life than those in plastic. Whole
meats keep longer than chopped
nut meats and unsalted nuts
retain their good flavor longer
than the salted ones.
seen it? It bothered her that
she couldn't remember. When
she reached home, though, it
dawned on her all of a sudden.
This was the book she found so
boring. She hadn’t even noticed
the name of the author.
T aking the book down from the
shelf again, she began reading.
As she read page after page,
she asked herself: "Why did
I think this book was dry? Say,
this ome book I I had no idea
he could write—and so welll"
And thus, avidly, she continued
reading far into the night.
Yes, it makes a great deal of
difference if you knw the au
thor—and especially if you love
him I How many believers in
Christ there are whose most
precious hours are spent in
reading and studying the Bible—
a book which once seemed dull
and uninteresting to them I The
reason? They have come to

Our Lord said: ‘‘This is life
eternal, that they might know
Thee, the only true God, and
Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast
sent” (John 17:3), But how do
we obtain the "life eternal"
with which this knowledge is
bound up? Our Lord said: "He
that BELIEVETH on Me hath
everlasting life” (John 6:47).
Salvation is, after all, a love
story to be believed, and by
which we come to know Him
who "loved us and gave Him
self for us."

‘‘A lady has just fainted in

Immediately several flasks

“Thanks, it always did make
