Time Running Out for Some VA-backed Loans Time is growing short for veterans of World War II to use their eligibility for guar anteed loans for homes, farms or businesses, A. W. Tate, Manager, Veterans Adminis tration Regional Office, At lanta, Georgia, warned. The final deadline for application for a VA guaranteed loan is July 25, 1967. Mr. Tate said that while over 7-million veterans had used their eligibility to pur chase new homes, farms or start businesses, there were many still eligible who had not taken advantage of this provision. The Veterans Administra tion has guaranteed 126.584 home loans to Georgia veter ans of World War II and the Korean Conflict. There has been a total of 2,179 business loans and 2,462 farm loans guaranteed under the pro gram. Loans insured by the VA total $1,255,580,865. In addition to the guaran teed loans, the U. S. Veterans Administration has made 9,645 direct loans totaling $86,731,582. These loans are made in areas where local financing is not available. Mr. Tate advised veterans of World War II planning on utilizing this privilege guar anteed to them by Public Law not to wait until the last minute before selecting their home, farm or business. Loans are arranged for by the build er in most instances, but the guarantee can be used to pur chase existing homes as well as new homes. With less than eight months remaining for veterans to use their eligibility, Mr. Tate said there had been an up surge in veteran loan activity. The July 25, 1967 deadline does not apply to veterans of the Korean Conflict or veter ans who have been included in the new legislation who have served since January 31, 1955. The expiration date for Korean veterans is 1975, and for veterans of the Viet-Nam area, ten years plus an exten sion for time served, from the date of their discharge.

Gracen Quince Adams C. Winton Adams Attorney for Petitioner 6-15 Packaging Is Important for Protecting Food You say it’s what’s inside the package that counts, but have you ever considered how important the package is in maintaining the original qual ity of food? Packaging is not a necessary evil to increase food costs. It is tremendously useful for protecting food dur ing marketing. You now re ceive products in fresher con dition, with more potential shelf life and with greater ap peal and convenience because of packaging developments. Packaging is a multi- billion dollar business. For packag ing, with its thousands of con sumer-packaged items, is the largest segment of the indus try. Over 48 billion metal cans and 27 billion glass containers Were produced in 1964. Other materials used for food pack aging include wood, wood ve neer, fiberboard, paperboard, paper, cotton, burlap, packag ing films and aluminum foil. New packages and great num bers of new or improved pack aging materials are in l continu ous development. They pro vide better protection for your food than ever before in his tory. Product protection to main tain quality for an adequate marketing period is the major function of food packaging. There are also other things to be considered. The package must be economical to use and must promote sales. It may provide convenience, save time in shopping, save shelf space, prevent pilfering, make han dling easier by unitizing or provide a host of other ser vices. What, then, are the major protective packaging require ments? Physical protection is needed to prevent product crushing or bruising and to provide stacking strength for normal handling. Moisture loss or moist Ore gain must be min imized. Product shriveling and underweight packages result when moisture loss is exces sive. Dried foods loss crispness or they mold when moisture content increases above speci fied levels. Sanitary protective barriers are required to prevent con tamination from dust and en try and destruction by micro organisms and insects. Gain or loss of gases such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen from packages is critical for many products. They must be minimized. Ex cess contact with atmospheric oxygen hastens quality de terioration of many processed products. Odor loss or pickup often must be avoided. Product aroma may pass rapidly out of some packages, resulting in quality deterioration. Flavor loss should be minimized. Grease or fat loss must be minimized in some products and color changes have to be avoided. This often involves exclusion of light. You’ll find fresh produce, fresh meats, dehydrated foods, frozen foods, canned foods, freeze-dried foods, ready-to serve foods and other proces sed foods packaged in films, wraps or containers that ful fill these requirements. You can be assured much research has gone into the development of the packaging materials. Also, it has been approved as a safe product. — By Nelle Thrash, Home Economist-Food Preservation, Cooperative Ex tension Service, University of Georgia. KEEP YOUR MIND ON THE ROAD, NOT ON YOUR TROUBLES Are you in the habit of mulling over personal prob lems while driving? It’s a poor habit that could prove fatal, the American Insurance Association cau tions. Safe driving — especially these days as more and more cars crowd streets and high ways — requires your full at tention. Any distraction can lead to an accident that might have dire consequences for you, your passengers or some innocent motorist in' another car. To help keep down traffic fatalities, the Association urges that you concentrate on nothing else except safe driv ing, while you are behind the wheel.

Talmadge has en dorsed the proposal to make the North Newport River in Liberty County navigable from the Intracoastal Water way to Riceboro, site of Geor gia’s newest paper mill. The Georgia Senator has placed in the Congressional Record statements made by proponents of the navigation project to the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers at a recent hearing in Hinesville. The proposed navigation project would open the North Newport River to barge traf fic to the site of the liner board mill under construction at Riceboro by Interstate Pa per Corporation. The naviga tion channel would be used for bringing pulpwood to the mill from hard-to reach costal areas of Georgia and adjacent states, and for shipping liner board to Savannah and Bruns wick for loading aboard ocean going ships. “At the hearing by the Corps of Engineers, propon ents of the North Newport project stated that the im provement would result in substantial economic benefit to the Hinesville-Ricebore area of Liberty County and to a large coastal area of Geor gia, northeast Florida and southeast South Carolina from which the new paper mill will draw its pulpwood supply,” Senator Talmadge said. “Believing that this proposal will mean much to the eco nomy of this part of Georgia, I endorse the proposal and hope that the Corps of Engi neers will give favorable con sideration to developing this waterway,” he added.

Orange Dust on Some Trees May Be Fusiform Rust Macon — The bright orange dust appearing on the swollen branches and trunks of lob lolly and slash pine trees are spores, according to Leland Moore, forest entomologist, Georgia Forestry Commission, Macon. The swelling and resulting spores are symptoms of a dis ease known as fusiform rust, Moore said. This disease in fects pine trees of all ages from seedlings to mature trees. Moore emphasizes that the disease is most severe on young trees 1-15 years old. Older trees generally suffer only superficial infection of branches. It has very little af fect on longleaf and shortleaf pines. Moore points out that in the Spring the swellings are covered with blisters that break and release spores in the form of a bright orange colored powder which is car ried by the wind to oak leaves. The rust fungus must pass through a stage of growth on the leaves of various oak species before it can reinfect pines. Moore added that the Pine cankers do not directly infect adjacent pines. Some of the susceptible oaks are water, willow, black jack and laurel. When establishing planta tions in high rust hazard areas, consideration should be given to increasing the num ber of seedlings planted to compensate for later losses and to minimize infection by natural pruning of infected branches. In some areas of the State, difficulties will arise when adjusting management prac tices to fit existing patterns of insect and disease occur rence. If you should need as sistance with such a situation, call on the local management forester through your county forest ranger. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE AND TAX Inside county $2.58 Outside county, in state $4.12 Outside state $4.00 By George Loyd The much welcome rains that fell on' Brantley County soils on May 22, has done won ders toward improving crop conditions. Both corn and tobacco crops, which two weeks ago looked as if they were almost too far gone to produce, have come out and looks as if they will produce fair yields, if good weather conditions pre vail for the rest of the grow ing season. Some of the farmers who planted late obtained poor and irregular stands, but in most instances these young plants that lived through the dry period looks good. Where stands were obtained in the earlier planted crops, and with no further adverse weather conditions, it looks now as if normal yields can be expected. Tobacco harvest has already begun on a few farms and by next week several farmers will have begun harvesting their crop. Most gardens have also shown improvement, and a much better vegetable crop will be produced than was expected before the rains came. Atlanta Braves Fight to Stay In Ist Division The Atlanta Braves Nation al League baseball team is having a hard fight to remain in the first division of the ten clubs. The Braves dropped three games to the New York Mets last week, then split a double header with them Sunday. Tuesday night they split a doubleheader with the Chi cago Cubs, losing 12 to 5, then winning 4 to 1. The Braves have only two pitchers who are consis tent winners, of the staff of 10 pitchers on the roster. They are Lemaster and Johnson. One of their best pitchers has been sidelined for weeks with an eye infection. He is Tony Cloninger. Three of the Braves’ best batters have slumped badly in the last 10 days. They are Aaron, Alou and Carty. The main trouble of the Braves seems to be that they all have homeritis, a’ disease which causes every batter to try to knock the ball out of the park, and end up by strik ing out or popping up, Casey Stengel in discussing this disease said, “You tell a batter what to do but they go up there to the plate and try to knock the ball over a build ing. And all they do is play paddy cake with the second baseball.” This writer thinks Mr. Stengel meant “Pattycake”.
