Asa runs a 1200-acre tract of
timberland. He has recently replaced old fashioned saw methods
with a modern McCulloch Model 33-B Chain Saw and can average
six cords of pulpwood daily per man where formerly it required
two men to produce three cords.
The model 33-B weighs only 20 pounds, yet its fine balance and
rugged performance make it just the saw for pulpwood cutters
over a sustained cutting period. And its low cost makes it extrt
easy to own.
We have Oregon Chain available for all
makes of saws.
For better lawn cutting in the toughest grass, there's nothing like
the new McCulloch Twin-Action Safety Lawn Mower. See it now.

Exams Planned
For Vacancies in
Service Academies
At the request of Congress
woman Iris Blitch, the U. S. Civil
Service Commission will con
duct examinations for designation
to the U. S. Military, Naval and
Air Force Academies. This des
ignation examination will be con
ducted on Monday, July 11, 1955,
in Brunswick. Fitzgerald, Val
dosta, and Waycross, Georgia,
provided there is a sufficient
number of young men interested
in the Military, Naval and Air
Force Academy classes of 1956.
“It should be understood,” ex
plained Representative Blitch,
“that this examination is not for
the purpose of admission to the
service academies, but is con
ducted at the request of Members
of Congress, so that such Mem
bers may appoint young men as
principals and alternates to such
vaccancies that .may exist, with
the assurance that the appointees
stand a good chance of passing
the stringent mental and acade
mic examinations for actual ad
mission.
“The designation examination
will consist of three phases and
will require approximately three
and one - half hours. It consists
of two aptitude tests, including
vocabulary and reading, and abil
ity to recognize three dimension
al figures from flat drawings. The
third phase of the examination
is one subject matter test on
algebra, Tests of these types are
known to be highly related to the
degree of success that candidates
are likely to have in the mormal
entrance examinations for the ac
ademies and in the actual course
of study offered at the acade
mies,” Congresswoman Blitch
stated.
It is requested that all young
men of the Eighth Congressional
District of Georgia who are in
terested in a 1956 appointment to
a service academy immediately
write to the Congresswoman and
request a designation examinat
ion appointment. “It should also
be pointed out,” continued Mrs.
Blitch. “that this designation ex
amination is not for an actual ap
pointment to a service academy,
but is a guide for Members of
Congress in their 1956 appoint
ments.”
All requests for designation ex
amination appointments should
be addressed tp Congresswoman
Iris Blitch, Suite 1605. New
House Office Building, Wash
ington, D. C., and be mailed be
fore June 1, 1955, but not later
than June 10, 1955.
Today 85 per cent of all skin
cancers are cured, but 95 per cent

deaths, the 1 American Cancer So
ciety says.

HEALTH BULLETINS TELL HOW
TO PREVENT BANG’S DISEASE
Vaccination of
Calves, Care With
Milk Are Urged
Bang’s disease, or brucellosis,
a fever which attacks cattle and
through them attacks people, is
under attack this week in two
of Georgia’s state publications.
Other forms of brucellosis are
carried by infected hogs, as well
as goats and sheep.
When caught by man from live
stock, the disease is known as
undulant fever. While the past
eurization of milk, the inspection
of cattle, and the vaccination of
calves have greatly reduced un
dulant fever in Georgia, there
are still a number of cases re
ported each year. Ten years ago
169 cases were reported to the
Georgia Department of Public
Health. Last year only 45 cases
were reported.*
Georgia’s Health, monthly bul
letin of the Georgia Department
of Public Health, gives details
on the effects of undulant fever
on humans and recommends pas
teurization of milk and the vac
cination of calves as means of
controlling the disease. The drug
aureomycin is described as the
first generally accepted treat
ment for undulant fever in hum
ans. Even the drug does not work
in every case.
Get Calf Vaccinations
The Market Bulletin gives de
tails on the Georgia Department
of Agriculture’s program for the
vaccination of calves as a means
of controlling brucellosis. With
shots furnished free by the fed
eral and state governments, 178
veterinarians in the state are
cooperating to put the program
across. Cattle owners are urged
to see their county agents or vet
erinarians for further informa
tion.
Heat or Boil Raw Milk
Rural families or families liv
ing in communities where there
are no pasteurization facilities,
says Georgia’s Health, can make
their milk safe either by heat
ing to 160 degrees Fahrenheit,
stirring constantly, or by bringing
to boiling point. (A dairy ther
mometer costs about $2.00 and
can be bought at most farm
stores.) The milk should then be
chilled quickly by placing the
container in cold water and star
ring until cool enough to be re
frigerated.
Undulant fever may appear
suddenly or it may creep up on
its victim, insidiously under
mining his health. It may first
make itself known by an acute
attack with high fever, severe
pains in the back of the head,
and extreme weakness. Undulant
fever may appear gradually, re
sembling many other diseases.
Until the advent of the drug
aureomycin there was no gen
erally accepted treatment for un
dulant fever. People who did not
have relatively strong constitut
ions were unable to overcome
the infection snd suffered a
chronic condition the rest of
their lives.
Modern Chickens
Come Into World
Through Science
There’s no hit or miss system
used in the hatchery. Modern
chicks come into the world on
a strict timetable regulated by
costly machinery.
Their incubation perior is
carefully controlled, eggs are
turned over on the hour, air
surrounding them is constantly
changed, and temperature and
moisture content regulated even
ly.
On breaking through the shell,
chicks are innoculated against
Newcastle’s disease. When they
leave the hatchery, the day
they’re hatched, they ride on
clean layers of straw to their
new homes.
After arrival at the hatchery,
eggs are put in an incubator.
From there they move to the
hatch units. Three weeks are re
quired to hatch an egg.
Temperature and humidity are
controlled during each operation
A 70-80 per cent average is
considered good hatchability. The
weather and the season are also
factors in the number of eggs
which hatch, as well as the
number laid.
Chicks are taken from the
hatch unit as soon as they break
loose from the shell. The newly
hatched chick can live for 72
hours on the yolk of the egg,
so that the hatchery need not
worry about feed.
Milk products give you 30 per
cent of your nutritional require
ments for only 15 percent of your
food budget.
Brunswick Stew,
Real Dixie Dish,
Easy to Make
Brunswick stew, which had its
origin up in Brunswick County,
Virginia, and has become a
Southern favorite along with
fried chicken, barbecue hash,
turnip greens, pot likker and
mint juleps, is one of the most
satisfying “all-in-one” dishes
there is. It is as old as the
Georgia *hills but always de
lightfully new and full of sur
prises.
Serve Brunswick stew and
your guests will not only get a
kick out of seeing the actual
cooking but they will go home
bragging about your wonderful
cooking ability. It’s surprising
how filling this stew is and what
a long way it goes in filling up
the hardest to fill.
Most Georgians think it tastes
best when cooked all day in a
black washpot but all of us can
not spend this much time. Some
moderns even use pressure cook
ers for the main part of it, which
is a good idea when you are
rushed. But take it slowly, stick
to the receipe or throw in a few
vegetables of your own choosing,
use plenty of Georgia chicken
and all be well.
Fat hens are now low-priced,
says the Poultry and Egg Na
tional Board, and so full of nu
trition and good flavor they
team with fresh vegetables from
the garden or the .markets to
make this rich stew a wonder
dish. Canned or frozen vegetables
may be used. The secret is long,
slow cooking.
Southern Brunswick Stew
1 3 to 5 lb. hen (stewing fowl)
ready to cook
3 tablespoons salt
corn cut from 6 ears
5 medium onions sliced
1 lb. okra (or one can)
2 lbs. lima beans, shelled
%-lb. salt pork
1 pod red pepper, or I|B
teaspoon tabasco
2 green peppers, chopped
5 large tomatoes, quartered
^-teaspoon pepper
Wash hen, place in large pot
and cover with water, add salt.
Slice pork down to the skin and
put in pot. Simmer till meat
separates from bones, about 3
hours. Remove bones and add
all vegetables. Add seasonings
Reduce heat until mixture bare
ly simmers, stirring often to pre
vent sticking. Stew is ready when
it is thick and mushy. Add more
seasonings if desired. Serve in
warm bowls. About 10 servings
Alive in looks
You can’t get any more life in auto
mobile styling than Chevrolet’s “Body

all the nice, reassuring things you can
say about automobile bodies. “Body
by Fisher” is found in many of
America’s most luxurious cars.
