Address all mail to Nahunta, Georgia Dogwoods in the Landscape By T. G. Williams, Jr., Head Extension Landscape Department University of Georgia College of Agriculture What is the most popular small flowering tree for landscape use in Georgia? It is none other than Cornus Florida, better known as dog wood. This graceful tree grows 15 to 25 feet high and has wide spread ing branches It not only provides excellent flowers in the spring time. but also colors up fall with its beautiful red foilage. Even in winter the bare branches create good lines and form in the FUTURE FARMERS! oft A great part of our nat’orra! strength is rooted in the soil of rural America . . .

Dogwoods may be used in many different planting designs, both in domestic and public areas. Hie native whites are excellent for use with natural groupings of other trees along roads and high ways. Street plantings display good color and usually are not high enough to interfere with utility lines. In these plantings, how ever, all the dogwoods need not be planted in straight lines. Grouping three to five of them 10 to 15 feet apart on individual lots gives homeowners an opportunity to unify the entire street and still OKEFENOKE eeeeeaeeeeeeeeeeeeeeooeeeeeeeoooeK B In MUNSWKK: 1428 Newcastle at Gloucester RHONE 264-27 J 5 h VALDOSTA: 112 North Patterson PHONE 24XM54 •1 "■•nRUPn • — ■ retain some individuality on their own property. On a small front yard, perhaps one specimen tree will be sufficient. The narrow’ two- to three-foot soil strip between the curb and the sidewalk is a poor location for dogwoods. They need more growing room than that. And this type of planting can create serious traffic hazards, especially for children. Hospital, courthouse, library, and school grounds are excellent areas for dogwoods. Here again, massing the trees usually results in a better landscape effect. Around the home dogwood is unsurpassed as a small scale tree. It can be used as a single specimen or — if a more colorful flowering effect is desired — in group plantings. Dogwoods are ex cellent for use with large pine trees that provide some shade. They also look well in borders with other deciduous and ever green plants. Dogwoods may also be useful in a more formal setting with regu lar spacing for repetition and a particular design effect. These small trees are particularly -well adapted for use in small gardens and around low contemporary houses. >• Curried Chicken An Exotic Dish Curry powder, the spice which figures prominently in many of India’s national dishes, helps add a truly exotie touch to chicken dishes. Because of its wide use in orien tal cookery, curry powder is sometimes referred to as “Salt of the Orient.” It is a ground blend of as many as 16 to 20 spices, including ginger, black and red pepper, cumin seed, fenu greek seed, cloves, cinnamon, and tumeric. Other spices are added by manufacturers to suit their individual formulas, with different flavored curries being produced by varying the propor tion of spices in the blend. The U. S. Department of Agri culture’s Consumer and Market ing Service suggests using a cut up broiler fryer, weighing about 2 pounds, for a dish of curried chicken. With broiler-frvers p'en tiful at foodstores now, homemak ers will find them economical food buys. A meaty broiler-fryer will ”ro vide four good servings of curried chicken. After wash in? and drying the chicken pieces. USDA home economists recommend the fol lowing ingredients: 2 cups water: an apple, pared and finely chopped; 1/3 cup finely chopped onion; a tablespoon fine ly chopped parsley; a teaspoon salt: a teaspoon monosodium glutamate; 1/8 teaspoon pepper: ¥< cup flour: % cup light cream: cup raisins; 3 tablespoons chop ped nuts: 2 teaspoons curry pow der; anrd ¥4 teaspoon ginger. To prepare, place chicken in a deep kettle or large skillet. Add water, apple, onion, parsley, salt, monosodium glutamate, and pep per. Bring mixture to a boil, re duce heat, cover pan, and sim mer 40 minutes. Remove chicken from pan and remove meat from bones in large pieces. Reduce broth to 2 cups. Blend flour and cream until smooth and add to broth, stirring constantly. Add raisins, nuts, curry powder, and ginger. Cook, stirring con stantly. until thickened. Add bone less chicken and heat to serv ing temperature. Serve with rice.

Slash Pine Area Planning Group Meets, Plans Several Projects The Slash Pine Area Plan ning and Development Com mision met in regular session Tuesday. January 26, in Way cross with Chairman, Dan Jardine, presiding. Among items of importance discussed by the Commission was a proposed seminar entit led “Planning and Your Com munity”. The executive director ex plained that the purpose of the proposed seminar would be to instruct the participants on the organization and functions of the local planning commis sion, to point out the past acti vities of existing local com missions. and to present ideas on how planning recommenda tions can more efficiently be put into action. The commissioners expres sed enthusiasm regarding the ootential benefits of such a seminar and gave unanimous approval to it. Fitzgerald will be the site for the meeting and although no specific date has been chosen, it will be within the second w r eek of March if possible. The Institute of Community and Area Development of the University of Georgia is work- : ng closelv with the Commis sion’s staff in planning the seminar, and a number of oth er public agencies will be ask ed to co-sponsor the event. A report was given concern ing the state of completion of resource audits, which have been undertaken for each of the Slash Pine member coun ties. They contain information normally required by prospec •••••••••••••••••••••« 'Buy Lines' FOR GEORGIA CONSUMERS ■eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeei Q. What is a "distressed" finish on furniture? A. A “distressed” finish is de signed to make new pieces of furniture look old. It is some times called antiquing. Many me thods may be used to create an appearance of age. Spatters of darker paint may give a “fly specked” appearan e; darker glazes applied to colored pieces and wiped away in areas create illusion of age. Corners and edges of chests and tab’es may be sand ed smooth to suggest long wear. Some pieces may be “distressed” at the factory to the point of hav ing dents and scratches or even cut-out notches to give the illusion of several generations of use. Q. What kind of wood is fruit wood? A. Fruitwood comes from any tree which bears fruit such as ap ple, pear, cherry, etc. Often, however, this term also is used to describe a warm brown finish applied to other woods. Should you be interested in buying furni ture with a fruitwood finish, ask the salesman what particular kind of wood has been used in the piece. Be sure you know whether you are buying a real fruitwood or just a fruitwood finish. Q. What is the best type of finish for a piece of furniture? A. The best finish depends on the use of the piece of furniture. The finish enhances the appear ance of the piece of furniture and protects it. Synthetic finishes have been developed to provide beauty and protection for pieces which may be expected to receive bumps and spills and other pos sible accidents. Lacquer finishes are well-known for bringing out the beauty of wood color and grain but may be easily damaged by alcohol or acetone (fingernail polish) spills. Oil gives a rich finish to wood but tends to spot with water or other beverages. Whatever finish you select, be cure to read the manufacturer's recommendations for keeping it and follow them carefully for long and satisfying results. Q. What is the difference be tween traditional and provincial styles of furniture? A. Traditional styles are the more formal styles of the Geor gian period, 18th Century English and French styles of the 18th Cen tury such as Louis XV and Louis XVI. Provincial styles are sim plified versions of the traditiona' styles which are today made for use in less sophiscated and more informal, relaxed interiors. As the names suggest, traditional styles were the more formal, com plicated pieces of furniture made by master cabinetmakers work ing for wealthy employers while provincial styles were made in the provinces or rural areas by local cabinetmakers from local mater ials and often by memory of the traditional styles seen in the city. (This week's “Buy Lines” were prepared by Ava D. Rodgers, Home Furnishing and Art Special ist, University of Georgia Coop erative Extension Service.' Q. My children are asking to help in buying their clothes. How do you go about letting them help when our budget is limited? A. Perhaps you might start by tive industries in evaluating a community. It was called to the Commission's attention that final editing and publica tion of the audits had been included in a pending Federal aid application, which has been delayed for more time due to circumstances beyond the Commission’s control. It was decided that since this information is badly need ed by member counties in their 'industrial development efforts, it should be published and distributed in raw data form ■by the Commission just as ' soon as possible. William S. (Bill) Smith, the Commission’s newly employed ' Program Developer, gave a progress report on his activi- I ties. He reported that much I interest has been expressed I in the projects which are pos ' sible under the Economic Op ■ portunity Act of 1964 and that ; several localities are expected ;to submit project applications 1 in the near future. *Mr. Smith is available to as sist communities in planning i their attack upon poverty, in I accumulating the information 1 reouired in a project applica ition. and in coordinatine local I activities with State and Fede \ ral officials. Another activity of impor tance which was reported up on bv the staff was a tourism study. Staff members have visited all the member coun ties and discussed the tourist attractions within each county with persons knowledgable in this field. The audit which is now in draft form, inven- making a list, with the children, of the clothing articles heeded. Approximate the cost. A catalog or sales sheet may help. Shop together and discuss the things to be bought as to style, durabili ty, appropriateness to occasions and cost. Q. My teenage children do not seem to like the clothing I buy for them. How can I make them more pleased with their clothes? A. Teen-youths are very parti cular about their clothing and that their clothes are like the others in their group. Help them to choose their own clothing by a discussion of what colors, de sign, cut, etc., looks best on them. If they make a few mistakes, don’t worry. Adults make mis takes, too. Q. Although my 16-vear-old son has nice clothes, he throws them around his room and I have to pick them up after him. How can I teach him to take care of his clothes? A. At age 16 it is late to teach a child to be neat about the house. However, try talking with him a bout how much neater he would look if he hung his clothes up when he takes them off. Make hanging clothes as easy as pos sible by having plenty of space and hangers. You may even need to put an extra clothes valet in his room. Don’t be too exacting but use patience. If this doesn't work let the clothes stay where he puts them. When he sees how they look next time he gets ready for them perhaps he will get the idea. (This week’s “Buy Lines” were prepared by Audrey Morgan, head. Family Life Department, University of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service.) Q. I have nosed that fresh cran berries vary greatly as to size, shape and color. Is there a dif ference in these cranberries? A. Cranberries vary in size, col or and shape according to varie ty. Cranberries are not often sold by variety’ names. The most com mon varieties on the market are the large, bright red berries and the smaller dark ones. The small er berries are sweeter and usually keep better. Q. How can fresh cranberries be selected? A. Look for cranberries which are plump, firm and of high lus ter, Avoid berries which are shri veled and dull as they have pass ed their prime. Q. Is homemade cranberry sauce less expensive than com mercially canned? A. There is very little differ ence with the exception of diete tic cranberry sauce which costs about twice as much per serving as either the homemade sauce or commercially canned sauce con taining sugar. Q. How much sauce will one pound of frosh cranberries yield? A. One pound of fresh cran berries will make approximately three to three and one-half cups of sauce or 12 to 14 servings of one-fourth cup. Q. What contribution do cran berries make to the diet? A. Color, flavor and variety are important in eye and appetite ap peal. Cranberries rate high here and they also furnish small amounts of minerals and vitamins. The tartness of cranberries adds zest to everyday meals. (This week’s “Buy Lines” were prepared by Nellie C. Boyd, head, Nutrition Department, University of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service.)
