POLITICAL PUM hrccl E>ro^n BY: VERNON R. REDDISH 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 LET US SELL YOUR FARM i ‘ SALES INC. 'Oaun PIVM6-3132 Gray. Ga 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- r ANNOUNCEMENT Webb Eye Clinic EVERY VISION SERVICE AT ONE OFFICE, IN CLUDING COMPLETE EYE EXAMINATION, PRE SCRIBING AND FITTING CONTACT LENSES.

CHRISTMAS GIFTS Beautiful imported baskets Bulbs and Plants 'Landscaping 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.

Board of Comm. (1196b) 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.

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 know the Authorl 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."
