as possible. If the cut is larger
than one inch across, it would
be advisable to paint it with a

When pruning large limbs,
cut most of the limb off leaving
a stub of six inches to one foot
long. This will remove excess
weight which might interfere
with properly pruning the limb.
Then cut from the lower side of
the limb, as close to the trunk
as possible, to remove the
remaining stub.
Small trees that are partially
up rooted can often be saved if
quick action is taken. The tree
should be straightened, soil
packed around the roots, and

4-H Honor

Mr. Martin
The Butts County 4-H Honor
Club met Thursday, January
18, at the Primary School for
their regular monthly meeting.
Twenty-four club members
came to hear the program on
Juvenile Rights presented by
Harold Martin. Mr. Martin
described the present as “The
Good Ole Days,” and he said
we were experiencing the best
time in history in regard to
personal rights. The group was
very interested, and they asked
several questions at the
conclusion of the program. The
group was very appreciative of
Mr. Martin taking time from
his busy schedule to talk with
them.
A short business meeting
was conducted by Mr. Daniel
and Miss Torrance, and
refreshments were enjoyed by
all. For those who missed the
meeting important announce
ments included: the 4-H Award
Program is scheduled for
January 26, at 7:00 p.m. and

of the wires that come in
contact with the tree itself,
should be covered. Something
like an old rubber hose or strips
of rubber from an old tire tube
works very well.

It isn’t easy to light up
1.25 million Georgians.
Georgia is the largest state, in area, east of
the Mississippi. And Georgia’s consumer-owned
electric utilities light up 80% of that area,
bringing dependable electricity to some 1.25
million Georgians who couldn’t get power any
other way. That’s a big, complicated job. It takes
able, highly qualified people to do it. That’s
exactly the kind of people who formed and operate
our Electric Membership Corporation. They
make a tough job as easy as flipping a switch. If
they don’t light you up, they probably do light
up someone you know or love. And that makes
life a lot better for all of us.
