USE AND CARE
OF STEAM IRONS
After using a steam iron the
water should be emptied in order
to prevent formation of mineral
deposit or rust. This suggestion is
from Miss Doris Oglesby, hous
ing - equipment specialist, Agri
cultural Extension Service. She
recommends using the steam iron
to raise the pile on velvet, cor
duroy, and other pile fabrics.

Cured Patients at
Milledgeville Regain
Their ‘Legal’ Sanity
A mental patient released from
Milledgeville State Hospital as
cured automatically regains his
legal sanity within 35 days, Atty.
Gen. Eugene Cook has ruled.
Mr. Cook ruled unofficially
that a 1956 Act gives the super
intendent of Milledgeville Hospi
tal five days to transmit to the
Ordinary of the county from
which the patient was admitted a
copy of the patient’s release or
der.
Within 30 days of receipt of
the hospital’s order which states
the patient is “sane,” “restored,’’
“not insane,” or “cured,” the
Ordinary is required to issue an
order declaring the patient le
gally sane.
The Attorney General noted
that 30 days after the Ordinary
receives the hospital report the
patient “shall automatically be
deemed to have been legally re
stored to sanity.”
His ruling was to clarify the
effects of a 1956 Act which a
mended a 1947 law on the sub
ject. The 1947 Act had required
that the patient or his attorney
“petition” the Ordinary for the
legal restoration of the patient’s
sanity.
Mr. Cook’s ruling pointed out
that if the hospital’s release or
der merely found the patient to
be “improved,” the Ordinary
should only file the hospital re
port with the commitment papers
on such person.
KEEPING OUT HARDWOODS
B. R. Murray, forester, Agri
cultural Extension Service, says
if landowners are to continue to
grow pines in the forests of
North and Middle Georgia, they
must work to keep out undesira
ble hardwoods in pine stands.
Murray says small expenditures
at the right time for timber stand
improvement can keep out such
undesirable hardwoods.
