Floyd Cave of Cochran reports
on flameless electric heat:
“Construction is my business;
electric heating,
my personal choice.”
Employed by Herbert Davis, a Cochran-area
builder, Floyd Cave supervises construction
and does some design work.
When he and Mrs. Cave bought their home,
he installed electric baseboard heating.
Mr. Cave states, “Every room is comfort
able. We don’t have drafts, and our heating
system is very quiet. Budget billing lets us
know in advance exactly how much our Me
tric bill will be each month, and that’s a big
help to the family budget.”
The Caves are pleased with their low heat
ing bill. They, like all homeowners who
qualify for the total-electric rate, enjoy elec
tric heating at the lowest price in our history.
Talk to your certified electric heating
dealer. Then step up to the joy of total
electric living at your house, too! ;

In Georgia... jjr
after bowling, beer is a natural
After vou’ve bowled a game or two, or when you’rt winding up
tjie evening at the neighborhood bowling center, it’s good to relax
with friends and compare scores. What better way to add to the
sport and the sociableness than with a refreshing glass of beer?
However you take your fun-skiing, skating, or at your ease in the
game room-beer always makes a welcome addition to the party.
Your familiar glass of beer is also a pleasurable reminder that
we live in a land of personal freedom-and that our right to enjoy
beer and ale, if we so desire, is just one, but an important one, of
those personal freedoms.

WEED TREE CONTROL
PROGRAM PLANNED
BY FORESTRY UNIT
Macon — The Georgia Forestry
Commission’s weed tree control pro
gram will begin during the middle
of May, announced Commission Di
rector Ray Shirley. The spraying op
erations will be done with mist
blowers.
Shirley emphasized the need for
landowners to examine their land
and decide whether they have acre
age which could be placed in pro
fitable production through the elimi
nation of inferior trees. Landowners
interested in obtaining this service
are urged to contact their county
forest ranger immediately.
The Commission encourages land
owners to use the services of com
mercial operators where available.
The treatment by the Georgia Fo
restry Commission costs $7.00 per
acre. See your county ASC manager
for information on qualifying your
acreage for cost sharing assistance.
The spraying solution used is 2-4-
5-T and oil and water. It is not
harmful to human or animal life.
Approximately 5 gallons of the so
lution are used per acre.
Forestry Commission Management
Chief W. H. McComb stated that
timber stand improvement is need
ed on some five million acres of up
land and flatwoods in Georgia. He
added that Commission management
experts and rangers, last year aid
ed landowners in treating some 3,-
693-acres that were producing cull
species.
The management chief emphasized
that an area to be treated by mist
blower must not have trees more
than 20 feet tall; for trees above
20 feet, girdling and tree injection
is recommended.
Shirley pointed out that the Com
mission cull specie control program
is being applied where sr rub or low
grade hardwoods exist and are pre
venting the growth of valuable com
ercial species. “The Commission is
not trying to rid the State of hard
wood species,” Shirley added, “but
is merely trying to control cull trees
or low grade hardwoods that are pre
venting the growth of valuable com
mercial timber.”
Excessive moisture which results
in poor soil aeration often cause"
potted foliage p'ants to turn yellow
and then lose the lower leaves, ex
