D. D. T. THREAT
NOT INCREASING,
SCIENTIST SAYS
Dr. Wayland J. Hayes Jr. of
the U. S. Communicable Disease
Center in Atlanta says there is
no evidence that D. D. T. is be
ing stored in increasing amounts
in the U. S. population.
Speaking in a lecture series on
“Man's Pollution of His Environ
ment” sponsored by Emory Uni
versity’s biology department, he
maintained that pesticides are
not the threat they are charg
ed with being.
D. D. T. has been of particu
lar interest in recent controver
sies over poisons and pollution
of man’s environment because it
is stored in human fat and in
mammals is secreted in milk.

Pierce Youth
Dies in Fire
A frame house, located six
miles from Blackshear just off
the Cason Road, burned down
early Sunday morning, Jan. 20,
about 5:00 A. M. and claimed the
life of a 17-year-old Pierce
county boy.
Sheriff J. H. Pittman said that
Lonnie Frank Haynes, a native
of Dodge county, Ga., perished
in flames which completely de
sffoyed the wooden house own
ed by T. W. Bennett of Ware
county.
The victim’s first cousin, Tul
ler Haynes, was also in the house
at the time of the blaze, but es
caped with minor injuries. Toi
ler’s father, Robert Haynes, was
also at home, but he was outside
at the lot or barn and did not
discover the fire until he started
back to the house, Sheriff Pitt
man reported, but the fire had
done advanced too far for him to
get into the house.
According to the Sheriff, the
Hayneses had been visiting rela
tives in Brantley county Satur
day night and it was early the
next morning before they arrived
home.
Tuller built a fire in the open
fire place and went in and laid
across the bed, leaving Lonnie
by the fire. Sheriff Pittman said
that the cause of the fire was
not determined, but he thought
the boy may have thrown kero
sene on the fire to get it started
and everything just burst into
flames instantly.
Pittman said that the boy must
have been trying to get out of
the house as his body was found
near a window at the opposite
end of the house from the fire
place.

GEORGIA HERITAGE—In present-day Gordon County, about 4
miles north of Calhoun, the Cherokee Indians achieved their
greatest expression of nationalism before westward removal. In
1825 they established a capital, New Echota, which is now being
restored by the Georgia Historical Commission as a memorial
shrine to this remarkable Indian development. At this seat of the
Cherokee republican government a bicameral legislature assem
bled annualy in the Council House, while their Supreme Court
met nearby in the Court House. Stores, taverns, and houses were
also part of New Echota, but perhaps the most remarkable build
ing was the National Print Shop, home of the Cherokee Phoenix
(1828-1834), America’s first Indian-language newspaper.
Unskilled Workers Advised
To Train for Future Jobs
Demand Will Exceed
Supply of Highly
Trained Employees
By 1965, demand for highly
trained workers will be so great
that for every five professional
and technical persons there will
be seven jobs, according to
Changing Times, the Kiplinger
Magazine. But, the magazine
adds, for the unskilled and for
those whose training has gone
out of use there will be only
three jobs for every five such
workers.
An article in the current issue
of the magazine reports that per
sons under 18 or over 45 with
no special skills will have a dif
ficult time. “The best guarantee
of a safe future is to upgrade
yourself or, if you already pos
sess a marketable skill, to be
sure to keep it current,” the
magazine advises.
“At least 10,000,000 adults are
studying in a variety of school
and nonschool courses. Some are
doing it for fun, some for gen
eral education. But a good many
people at all ages and all levels
of ability are receiving specific
job training or retraining, and
are then helped to find work to
fit their new skills.”
Ways to get in these programs,
suggested by the magazine, in
clude:
The Manpower Development
and Training Act, enacted in
1962 and designed to pinpoint
types of skills that are badly
needed, state by state, and then
train people to meet the needs.
The Area Redevelopment Act,
which set up a program in 1961
to cope with chronic unemploy
ment in depressed areas.
The National Defense Educa
tion Act, enacted in 1958 to pro
vide federal and state funds for
a wide variety of day and even
ing courses for students and
working adults who want to be
come highly skilled technicians.
Information on all three pro
grams is available from state em
ployment offices.
In addition, according to
Changing Times, valuable new
skills or additional training can
be learned by taking courses un
der a wide range of other pro
grams.
Over 300,000 people attend
evening classes at about 100 col
leges where they get training in
accounting, chemistry, economics,
office management and hundreds
of other subjects. In many com
munities, free evening courses in
job skills are given in the public
high schools.
Worthwhile courses are avail
able by mail in subjects ranging
from business correspondence
through landscaping, mineralogy
data processing and control-sys
tems theory to engineering and
physics. Costs run from $25 to
several hundred a year.
More than 75 percent of all
big American industrial corpora
tions run worker training pro
grams. Subjects range from al
gebra through zoology and from
introductory courses in machine
operation to courses in advanced
mathematics and top level man
agement.

— ■ “Ai,
Whiskey Still Is
Destroyed, Two
Men Arrested
A whiskey still located about
31^ miles south of Blackshear
was destroyed last Tuesday
night, Jan. 8, by county, state
and federal law enforcement of
ficers.
Deputy Sheriff Ivey Cato re
ported that approximately 800-
1,000 gallons of mash was de
stroyed with the gas-operated
still, which was in operation at
the time of the raid.
Two men were at the still
when the raid was made about
9:00 P. M., but they ran and es
caped, the Deputy Sheriff said.
State Revenue Agents Fred
Williams and Frank Bennett lat
er issued warrants for the ar
rest of I. W. Roberson, of Route
2, Blackshear, and Willie Linder
Jr., a Blackshear Negro. Both
were later apprehended and re
leased on bond. They will be
tried in the May term of Pierce
County Superior Court.
The illegal whiskey-making
outfit was located left off High
way 121 under an old shelter in
a broom sage field.
The still had been under ob
servation by state and county
officials for two weeks and was
blown up with dynamite, Cato
said.
Pierce County Sheriff J. H.
Pittman and Deputy Sheriff Ca
to assisted the state and federal
revenue agents in destroying the
outfit.
CALCIUM VITAL
TO PLANT AND
ANIMAL LIFE
Applying lime to regular pH
and correct soil acidity is recogn
ized as an important step in
Pierce County’s Big M Pasture
Program, County Agent Clifford
Park observed this week, but
some farmers may not fully ap
preciate the role of calcium in
plant and animal nutrition.
Calcium is an essential ele
ment in productive soil because
it plays a key role in the deve
lopment and growth of plants
and animals.
The decay of soil organisms,
which is important to plant
growth, is dependent upon cal
cium because calcium sustains
the life of bacteria which cause
this decay. Calcium also plays a
vital part in the formation of
protein compounds from other
nutrients in plant growth.
In animal nutrition, calcium is
most important because it is es
sential to forming strong bones
and teeth.
For these reasons farmers
should lime their pasture lands
in order to insure sufficient a
mounts of calcium in the soil to
produce healthy plants which, in
turn, will produce healthy ani
mals.
In one experiment station test
lime increased gain per steer
from 175 to 221 pounds of beef.
The gain of beef per acre increas
ed from 271 pounds to 341
pounds. The low producer can
not compete with the higher pro
ducer.
NEW LEAFLETS
ON COOKING ARE
NOW AVAILABLE
Are you running out of ways
to serve those leftover vege
tables in the refrigerator? Ever
try broiling them? They’re deli
cious and quite a refreshing
change. This tip, and many more,
comes from a series of new leaf
lets published by the Coopera
tive Extension Service of the
University of Georgia College of
Agriculture.
The four colorful leaflets, a
vailable from your county home
demonstration agent, are entitl
ed “Frying,” “Vegetable Cook
ery,” “Meat Cookery,” and “Suc
cess with Salads.” They’re jam
med with basic ideas on prepar
ing a wide variety of dishes.
The authors, Extension Nutri
tionists Nellie Boyd and Elaine
Stueber, have inserted dozens of
“tricks” to help you serve more
appetizing meals. For instance,
did you know a little vinegar,
lemon juice or slices of tart ap
ple will help keep red vegetables
from losing their color during
cooking? And did you know that
baking soda added to green vege
tables gives them an undesirable,
mushy texture?
Another handy tip is on pro
longing the life of frying fats. If
you’ll add new oil or shortening
to used fat before frying, strain
it through cheese cloth or a filter
after use, cool, cover and refri
gerate, it will last a great deal
longer.
These and the many other ideas
in this new series would make
very useful additions to your
cooking files. Your home demon
stration agent or county agent
will be happy to give you copies.
