Tree farming — the growing of continuing crops of wood provides more food and shelter for wildlife. That means good hunting. Whether you go gunning for birds or "pack in” for big game, be a safe sportsman — be careful with fire. Timber and wildlife are twin crops. i i |THE FIBER Will A OF AMERICA Brunswick Pulp & Paper Co.

The new division will maintain headquarters in Barberton. M. Nielsen, chairman, stated, “The steady growth and use of atomic energy for power generation and the interest of the Atomic Energy Commis sion and the utility industry in development of both ther mal and breeder reactors make it logical that all our nuclear activities be combined under central guidance.” Babcock & Wilcox is spend ing approximately sl6 million per year on research and de velopment, a large share of which is devoted to atomic energy. In addition to its ef forts in light water reactors, Babcock & Wilcox is working on the development of breeder reactors which are expected to have a commercial market in the 1980’s. J. P. Craven, a company di rector and vice president in charge of the boiler division, will head the new division. R. H. Harrison, vice president, who has been in charge of the atomic energy division will join the chairman’s staff. Babcock & Wilcox’s backlog as of March 31, 1968, was $1,381,368,000, a major por tion of which covers nuclear and fossil fuel steam generat ing systems. The company is also a major supplier of e quipment for the nuclear Navy.

THE SATILLA, LAST OF THE NATURAL RIVERS (From Georgia County Government Magazine) The Satilla River starts in Ben Hill County. The precise point of its origin lies four miles due east of downtown Fitzgerald, where Georgia routes 206 and 107 intersect. There in the triangle formed by the intersection the Satilla begins its meandering to the Atlantic some 175 adventur ous miles away. On its cursive wend to St. Andrews Sound near Bruns wick, the Satilla is joined a long the way by such tribu taries as the Hunter, Wiggins, Rose, Otter, Hog, Seventeen Mile, Twentv Mile, Tieer. Ot ter, Bear, Hurricane, Bishop, Sweetwater, Black Gum. Big Satilla. Little Satilla, Kettle and Hacklebarney Creek and the Alabaha River. It passes through no fewer than three swamps, including the Rauler son and the Knickerbocker. It caresses the eternally mavni fi^ent and hewitchmelv mv steTiovs OVefenolroo Toee+h“r with its tributaries the Sat’Ha provides water for 14 counties in the tall pine flatlands of Southeast Georgia. Here tim ber and riaval stores rule the economy and pulnwood is the heir apparent. This is true sportsmen’s countrv. In al! the Satilla basin, from Ren Hill to Camden, from Jeff Davis to Glvnn, from Atkin son to Appling, from Wavne to Ware, it is a rare trouble some soot that threatens to spoil the beautv and allure of what is probablv Georgia’s last natural river. Pollution, except in the tide land below Camden County’s Woodbine, has been kept to the minimum. There has been only one snot for alarm. Kett.l° Creek, rising out of the btacV waters of Cliff Bay west of Waycross was reported to be polluted. The Georgia Water Quality Control Board inves tigated and found “localized pollution problems of long standing.” The solution, the Board’s investigators said, was a sewerage system onerated jointly bv Waycross and Ware County. That recommendation is now being acted on. Hernando DeSoto and his Spanish expeditionary forces were the first white men to discover the Satilla but it was left to two French Protestants. Admiral Gaspard Colieny and Jean Ribault. to give the river its identity. In the mid-Six teenth Century, they explored the Alantic coastline, from the Keys to Cape Hatteras. The river known today as the Sa tilla, they called the St. Ilie after the French river of the same name. Tn time, the St. Ilie became the Sainta Illa, then Santilla and ^ow Satilla. As late as the 1850 s the river bore both names. Saint Hla and Santilla. In 1860, a postal village in Ware County was Chevrolet gives you big savings on the big ticket items...

The river journey must end at Woodbine, now the capital of Camden County, for beyond the river widens, the salt marshes spread far. and St. Andrews Sound begins. But if one was of th° mind to venture farther and he had the help of a guide, he could probablv find the site of Fort Mclntosh on the northeast side of the Satilla, about 80 vards frrm the river’s edge. Built in 1776 and under th“ command if Captain Richard Winn. Fort Mclntosh was a Rmmlutionarv strong point. It was a small stockage, JOO feet sauare. with a bastion at each corner and a blockhouse in tb“ center.

Bulletin Lists Six Keys to Pond Management Can 60,000 Georgia farm pond owners be wrong? Not if they follow six key steps to fish pond management pre scribed by Dave Almand, wild life specialist with the Univer sity of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service. Ponds, according to Mr. Al mand, are a valuable resource and potential moneymaker for pond owners. If managed pro perly they can bring quality fishing to nearly every fish erman in the state. A fish pond can be compar ed to a field of com or cotton. These crops must be looked after properly if they are to be productive. If you expect to have a productive pond — one that gives good fishing— it must be looked after, just like a crop of com or cotton, Mr. Almand said. Six keys can unlock the secret to successful pond management. They are: con struction, poisoning, stocking, fertilizing and liming, weed control and proper fishing. Mr. Almand explains each of these management keys in a new Extension Service publi cation entitled “Six Keys to Fish Pond Management.” Interested pond owners may obtain copies of this publica tion at local county Extension Service offices.
