Laws For Forest Protection Cited by Fire Investigator E. D. Cribb of Waycross, Georgia Forestry Commission Forest Fire Investigator is urging all Pierce Countians to become familiar with Geor gia’s Forest Fire Laws. The In vestigator points out that the following acts are misdemean ors and will be punished as provided by law. 1. Setting on fire or causing or procuring to be set on fire by any person of any forest, brush, woods, marsh or other lands, or other inflammable vegetation, on lands not his own. 2. Allowing fire to escape from the control of the person building or having charge of the fire, or allowing such fire to spread to the lands of any person other than the builder of the fire. 3. Burning any brush, stumps, logs, rubbish, fallen timber, grass, stubble or debris of any sort, whether on his own land or that of another without tak ing necessary precaution both before lighting the fire and at all times thereafter to prevent the escape thereof. The escape of such fire to adioining tim ber, brush, or grass lands shall be prima facie evidence that necessary precautions were not taken. 4. Building a camp fire upon lands, not one’s own, without clearing the ground immediate ly around it free from material which will carry fire, or leav ing thereon a camo fire to spread thereon or throwing a wav a lighted cigar, matches, cigarette, or by the use of firearms or in anv other man ner starting a fire in forest material not his own and leav ing the same unextinguished. 5.

Wof ford of the Fulton County Su perior Court to preside over a hearing in the contested Brantley County Sheriff’s runoff election of Jan. 23. Judge Wofford was named to hear the proceedings after Judge Winebert Dan Flexer II of Brunswick declined because of a heavy court calendar. A petition contesting the e lection was entered bv Glenn ville attorney Sam Johnson on behalf of his client, Layton Johns, 26. who lost the run off to Robert W. Johns, 29, who is now sheriff. The two Johns, not related, faced ea^h other in the runoff after polling the highest num ber of votes among four can didates seeking the Brantlev sheriff’s office following the d«ath of Sheriff J. Walter Crews. Robert Johns, who served for almost three years as Crews’ deputy, won the elec tion bv a single vote—l,2B2 to 1.281. Johnson said h’s client was protesting the election “be cause of a number of irregu larities. probably inst honest mistakes, but enough to merit a protest.” Personals Mr. and Mrs. Addison Strick land of Augusta and Mrs. Mary E.

The theft, destruction or injuring of any telephone lines, towers, buildings, tools or equipment used in the de tection, reporting, or suppres sion of fires. In addition, Cribb states that Pierce County has the Notice of Intention to Burn, County Option Law. This law, passed by two successive grand juries, states that failure of any per son, firm, corporation or asso ciation otherwise lawfully en titled to burn any woods, lands, marshes, or any other inflammable or combustible materials or vegetation, whether in cultivated or un cultivated areas, shall prior to such burning, give notice of the approximate time and lo cation thereof to the County Forest Ranger of the county where in such burning is to be made, or any other em ployee or official of the Coun ty Forestry Unit serving such county. Such notice need not be given if, on a sudden emergen cy, due caution requires to render one’s premises safe, but in any prosecution under this Act, such shall constitute an affirmative defense, the bur den which shall rest upon the nerson asserting it as a de fense. Failure to give such notice as required is a misdemeanor and punished as provided by la-w. These laws are set up to protect Georgia landowners, Cribb declared. By obeying these laws, the forests of Pierce County will remain a source of raw material for the area’s wood using industries as well as providing cover for our streams, a place to picnic, hunt or fish. “Won’t you help us keep Georgia green?” asks Investi gator Cribb. Anyone needing the ser vices of Investigator E. D. Cribb is requested to call the local county for est ranger or call Cribb at Wavcross, telephone number 283-5464. Loyd Advises On Fertilizing Pecan Trees By George A. Loyd, County Agent February is the month to fertilize pecan trees. Fertilizer is especially important for trees located around the home, for this is often the only pro duction practice they get. Commercial pecan growers us ually follow a complicated spray program, but this isn’t always practical with one or two trees in the yard. But fertilizer is practical— and helpful. Pecan trees need several fertilizer elements, in cluding nitrogen, phosphorus potash, zinc, magnesium and others. The b“st wav to determine the fertility needs of vour pe can trees is to take a soil sam ple. (Contact mv office for in formation on how to dr> this.) In the absence of a soil sam ple. a good rule nf thumb to follow is this: Annlv three pounds of a complete fertili zer for each vear of aee nf the tree or each inch of trunk dia meter. Then annlv additional nitrogen so that each tree 20 years of age or older receives at least 10 pounds of actual nitrogen. /inn is an imnortant part of fertilization for pecans. A Ae firienev of *h’S element refii'lta in a condition nommonlv en'l - “mcette”. ^O rorrert this condition. annlv five tn ten mnnfli nf zinc sulfate ner free, and then three tn five nnnnHc ner tree annually for .maintenance. Granted, fertilizing pecan troao rm the lawn presents a problem: B®st msuHs are nb inined bv hnrvino the fertili zer materials in holes. Dig 10 to 12 holes about a foot deep under the tree and six feet be yond the limb spread. Place fertilizer in the holes and re fill with soil. This method will prevent uneven growth patterns and iniury to the grass. Zinc will kill lawn grasses and thus cause unsightly spots on the lawn.
