RHODEN COUNTY RANGER has a hand in outdoor recrea tion such as hunting and fish ing. A poorly managed forest is not a productive forest. There is very little wildlife because of no foods. A well managed forest is a productive forest. It provides timber for wood products, food and cover for game and shade for streams. Timber harvesting practices bring an increase in available browse for game and bring forest openings which are good wildlife habitat. Harvesting operations can be interesting and educational for recreation visitors and healthy growing trees will provide settings for camp and picnic areas needed in the future. Harvesting also pre vents a build up of hazardous trees along roads, trails and streams used by recreation seekers. Logging roads and skid trails provide access for hunt ers and fishermen. Timber management provides trees of all ages which assures a con tinuous supply of game food and habitat for cover. Lets manage our forests with “multiple use” in mind, Water, Wood, Wildlife, Forage and Recreation. Nearly everybody reads want ads. f Is I Wil Owk 1970 FORD CLEARANCE SALE BLACKSHEAR SALES CO.

Football Practice Begins For BCHS Coach Hilton R. Culbreth be gan football practice for Brant ley County High School on Monday, August 10, 1970 at 5:00 P- m. The rest of this week will be a two hour prac tice beginning at 5:00 p. m. and ending at 7:00 p. m. This is a conditioning week. On Monday, August 17, 1970 there will be two practice ses sions, the first session begin ning at 3:00 p. m. until 5:30 p. m. The team will be served an evening meal at 6:15 p. m. in the high school cafetorium. The second session will begin at 7:15 p. m. and end at 9:00 p. m., after which the boys will be dismissed to return home. All boys in grades 9 through 12 who wish to try out for football are urged to attend these practice sessions. We have a ten game schedule. Games will be played on Fri day nights at 8:00 p. m. Our schedule and list of all candi dates for the team will be list ed in next week’s Brantley En terprise. August 17 Deadline To File ASC Nominating Petitions Eligible farm voters have only a few days left in which to circulate and sign nomina ting petitions for ASC com munity committees. August 17 is the final date petitions may be filed at the Brantley Coun ty ASC Office. Mail elections are set for the second week in September. “I want to re-emphasize to farmers who are eligible to vote that nominating candi dates by petition is of prime importance. If six or more eli gible candidates are nomin it ed by petition in an ASC com munity, no other names will go on the ballot. In the past, the incumbent community committee also had the privi lege of making nominations. Now a community committee may nominate only if fewer than six eligible candidates are nominated by petition — and the committee may nomi nate only the number of candi dates needed to make up a full slate of six nominees," George Dykes, Chairman of the Brantley County Agricul tural Stabilization and Conser vation committee, said. No special forms are requir ed for a petition — only a sheet of paper naming the candidate and the ASC com munity. Signatures of at least six eligible voters in the com munity are required on each petition. Only one candidate may be named on a petition but voters may sign as many petitions as they want. In general, to be eligible either to become a candidate or to vote, a person must have a farm interest in the commun ity and must be eligible to participate in one or more pro grams administered by the County ASCS Office. Full de tails on eligibility require ments for candidates and vot ers are available at the County ASCS Office, along with a list of known eligible voters in the county. Each year eligible farmers nominate and elect ASC com munity committees of three members and two alternates. The communities committees elect persons to fill vacancies on their County ASC Commit tee and also help administer farm programs such as farm acreage allotments and bases, and conservation cost-sharing. “They are the key people the U. S. Department of Agri culture relies upon for direct contact with producers. Com munity committees help keep farmers informed of farm pro gram provisions. They advise their County ASC Committee on the farm situation in their communities and assist in ad ministering farm progarms on the local level,” Mr. Dykes ex plained. “Our Brantley County ASC Committee hopes that this year farmers will nominate by petition every candidate whose name goes on a ballot,” he concluded. PRISONER DROWNS IN BRANTLEY A prisoner of the Ware County Prison Branch drown ed at approximately 11:30 a. m. August 10. A prison detail was working along U. S. 301 highway, cleaning bushes and grass from the right-of-way when the accident occured. Ac cording to Sheriff Johns, the prisoner attempted to wade a cross a water filled ditch with rubber boots on and could not get out of the water. Other prisoners apparently attempt ed to save the man but could not. The victim was identified as Melvin Rhodes, 23, of Atlanta, Ga. The Negro inmate was serving a ten year sentence for robbery. Chief Mallory Hatchet of the State Game and Fish Commis sion assisted by Brantley County Deputy Sheriff, Cor dell Wainright, dragged the a rea with a hook and removed the body from the water after about an hour. Sheriff Johns stated that he believed that Rhodes drowned because he could not get the boots off after getting into water over his head due to the fact that one of the boots had been removed on recovery of the body.

Babcock & Wilcox Will Fabricate Component Parts The Brunswick Works of Babcock & Wilcox will fabri cate component parts for a six and one-half million dol lar boiler sold to Dallas Pow er & Light Company, it was announced today by J. H. Re ber, local works manager. The oil and gas fired Radi ant-type boiler will produce 3,825,000 pounds of steam per hour for the generation of 515,000 kilowatts of electricity. It is part of a 50 million dol lar expansion program at the utility’s Lake Hubbard Steam Electric Station designed to meet the growing need of customers in metropolitan Dal las, Texas. Reber said the new unit will complement a similar-type B & W boiler recently placed in service at Lake Hubbard. He also announced that the engi neering graphics will be com pleted at B&W’s St. Peters burg, Fla. Engineering Office and that component parts al so will be manufactured at B&W facilities in Barberton, Ohio; Mt. Vernon, Ind.; Paris, Texas and West Point, Miss. Shipments are scheduled to begin March 1972 with com mercial operation slated for last quarter, 1973. t Bechtel Corporation, Ver non, Calif., is consulting eng ineer for the project.

The Brantley Enterprise, Nahunta, Ga., Thursday, August 13, 1970 EGGCELLENT IDEAS A total of 6,000 women in vaded Cleveland, Ohio, for one of the nation’s largest conven tions, the American Home Eco nomics Association. These 6,000 delegates repre sented one-third of the total membership of the American Home Economics Association. That shows just how strongly these professionals believe in their association and in the businesses who educate them with new product samples and information. The exhibit area for this con vention must be so large that there are few convention halls in the country that can accomo date them. This year 950 com panies were there displaying everything that is new and or available for Home Economics (homemakers and consumers). Particularly outstanding were the Simplicity and Butterick booths where everyone picked out (free) a pattern of our choice. There were 2 exhibits on “making your own lingerie.” What’s more — not just gowns and slips, but even girdles, garter belts and bras! Women have obviously become so adept at constructing fashionable out er garments, that they now clamor for instructions on mak ing underpinnings too. It’s no wonder. The savings are fan tastic. Those luscious colored lacy slips can be made for $1.60 or a wild animal printed Chemise for sl.lO. One exh’bitor which surprised many people was the Household Finance Company. Most people assume that Singer and Com pany, General Electric and R. J. Reynolds Foods must have Home Economists to test and in vent new products, but this finance company hires a staff of Home Economists to show consumers how to use money and credit wisely. That’s a change from many of the loan agencies who just try- to get people to borrow money.

J TRY WANT ADS By MILDRED HUFF During the meetings one of the topics discussed was “Edu cating Consumers: An Option or Obligation?” Miss Laura Clark, Home Economist teach er from Peoria, 111., felt that although it was an option at present, it was fast becoming an obligation. With the revolu tion from mass waste during the 50’s and 60’s to the pressing cry for ecological conservatism in 1970, businesses and educational institutions must work to help everyone learn how to get maxi mum utilization and satisfaction from all their resources. The Celanese Fibers Market ing Company of New York was one of the almost unbelievable examples of a business whose marketing and advertising structure is based on guarantee ing their products for the con sumer. They guard their good name so carefully that no fabric or garment manufactured is al lowed to use their fiber if the garment does not perform as advertised. However, Mr. For tess said the consumer has the obligation to read everything on the hangtag. No garment takes care of itself, but it will be fool proof if laundered according to directions. One of the most delightful booths, especially at lunchtime, was the one where frozen lob ster egg rolls were heated and served. And I learned that egg rolls are actually made with eggs—they are in that crispy outside covering. Did the Georgia Egg Commis sion exhibit? Most certainly— we joined the Poultry and Egg National Board, North Carolina Egg Marketing Board and Ohio “cggsperts” to show an Egg Basics filmstrip, give away recipes and information to those 6,000 women.

IT’S NO YOLK Experienced cooks know and beginners learn, that egg whites will not beat into stiff peaks if any speck of yolk gets into the whites. So as not to ruin a whole bowl of perfectly separated whites, separate each egg first into a small bowl. Then place it in the large bowl. If any yolk gets into the white in the small bowl, just add the rest of the yolk, cover and use in another recipe.
