Newspaper Page TextC&MS Detains 53,217 Pounds Os Meat & Poultry In Southeast Atlanta, Ga. — The Consum er and Marketing Service dur ing October detained 53,217 pounds of meat and poultry in the Southeast. The detentions resulted from routine investigations made by compliance and e valuation officers of C&MS’ consumer protection programs in cooperation with various state agencies, officials of this U. S. Department of Agricul ture agency said. The Federal Meat Inspec tion Act and the Poultry Pro ducts Inspection Act authorize the detention of nonfederally inspected meat and poultry products found in interstate commerce, and of USDA-in spected meat and poultry pro ducts suspected of being un wholesome, adulterated or misbranded. Examples of the latter would be meat or poultry pro- DANCE To Bill Ray & Tha Raziors Mr. Ernest Tubb (2nd) AT DANCE CLUB — 2 MILES NORTH OF FOLKSTON HIGHWAY 301 COMPLETELY REMODELED UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT FROM 9:00 P.

WE ALSO HAVE A GOOD SUPPLY OF THE ducts that have been federal ly inspected but have unwhole some or adulterated by inade quate refrigeration or by be ing involved in an accident where the product became con taminated. An example of misbranding would be where a product’s label does not ac curately describe the contents. If a state-inspected product is found in interstate com merce and is in good condition, its disposition depends on the mutual decision of the origina ting state and the state in which the product is found. If a federally-inspected pro duct is detained and further inspection proves it to be wholesome and truthfully la beled, it is released into reg ular channels. But, if an inspected product is found to be unwholesome, adulterated or misbranded, I the owner has several re i courses: The product may be ' moved to a USDA-inspected ' establishment for reinspection and processing for salvage purposes, or relabeling: the product can be decharacter i ized, identified as unfit for human food, and sold for use in animal food; or the owner can sign a release and volun tarily destroy the product in the presence of a C&MS of ficial. When a owner refuses to take any of the above steps, the case is turned over to the courts for final disposition.. To date, all such cases have re sulted in destruction of the product for use as human food. This is done in the presence of a court official so that there is documented proof of the product’s disposition. Loy E.

A sheet of this year’s Christ mas Seals shows a whole fan tasy town. Complete with drummers, jesters, Santas, snowmen, carolers. And a cra zy candelabrum. The figures are old-fashion ed and straight from the last century. Relics of the “good old days” when the planet was not so polluted. Soon the Seals will be perk ing up packages and Christ mas cards. Entire Seal Towns will be displayed in many store windows. Some of the Seals will decorate wreaths, candles, and Christmas stock ings. As well as gifts galore. Christmas Seals play a part in most towns and cities. Real towns, not fantasy ones. Con tributions help support the struggle against tuberulosis, emphysema, and other respir atory diseases in communities across the country. And Seals aid the fight against cigarette smoking and air pollution, two factors that can cause and ag gravate diseses of the lungs. The year-round symbol of the Georgia Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Associa tion is the red double-barred cross of Lorraine, the interna tional sign of the fight against TB. And the symbol appears on every single Seal in Christ mas Seal Town. It’s a part of the whole design for Christ mas cheer. The “good old days” may be gone forever, but life today can be made a lot healthier and less polluted. Christmas Seals are a starter. And long journeys begin with the first step. Use Christmas Seals. It’s a matter of life and breath. BLACKSHEAR, GA. SURROUNDING COUNTIES. WE WOULD LIKE TO PERSONALLY WISH EACH OF YOU A VERY HAP PY HOLIDAY SEASON AND A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR.

That’s right, trees! George D. Walker, forester with the University of Geor gia Extension Service, pointed out that trees have long been known for their contribution to soil and water conservation. But he wonders how many people realize their role in pro ducing the oxygen we breathe in. And in consuming the car bon dioxide we breathe out. This healthy transformaiton takes place in the leaves through the process of photo synthesis. Walker explained it this way. “Photosynthesis is the food-manufacturing pro cess whereby water absorbed by the roots and carbon diox ide taken from the air are combined to form simple su gar. As the word ‘photo’ im plies, light supplies the ener gy. Oxygen is given off as a by-product.” How much oxygen do trees produce? Estimates have it that for every pound of wood produced, 1.83 pounds of car bon dioxide are consumed and 1.34 pounds of oxygen are re leased into the atmosphere. Walker says this becomes im portant when you consider that the average man consumes about one pound of oxygen daily. Scientists believe an acre of healthy, managed trees can supply the oxygen needs of 18 humans. Putting in a plug for better forest management, Walker said it is obvious that healthy, vigorous trees provide NO. 150 NO. 152 1965 FORD PICK-UP 6 CYL.

He urged homeowners to maintain trees and other plants around the house. And he said planners should be encouraged to include more parks, park ways or “green strips” in their programs for future develop ments. “Residential developers should realize that some na tural areas should be preser ved in subdivisions. Trees make an area so much more livable and desirable,” the forester declared. Walker continued that it’s about time everyone became concerned about the world around him. “We can make it a healthier and more pleasant place in which to live,” he stated, “and trees are one of our most important allies.” Want ads bring quick re [IR Illnesses and Deaths । I Due to EMPHYSEMA New emphysema patients ! seen by physicians almost doubled in five years: | 1965 ■■■■■l 267,000 | I 1969 ■■■■»»■ I 510,000 j I Deaths from emphysema more I I than tripled in ten years: I 1959 ■■■ 7,728 ] 1968 *■■■■■■■■■ 24,420 | | Help fight emphysema I ■ with your Christmas Seal 25!

(Ji । The Brantley Enterprise, Nahunta, Ga., Thursday, December 3, 1970 Most Causes Os Poverty Can Be Eliminated In The Seventies Citizens from Brantley and area counties were told last week that most of the causes of poverty can be eliminated in the seventies if local agen cies and communities set high enough goals and work to gether. Speaking at the third an nual meeting of Slash Pine Community Action Agency in Douglas, Dr. John A. Dyer, deputy director of the Office of Economic Opportunity for the southern states, said com munity action agencies should be ready to go out of business by 1980. He challenged local agencies and citizens to set 10-year, 5- year, and 1-year goals, to plan carefully, to work hard, and to keep their objectives ever before them as they move to ward success. Dr. Dyer, substituting for Regional Director Roy Batch elor, who was called to Wash ington for a high level con ference, discussed some of the efforts that must be made if poverty is to be eliminated as a major community problem. He cited the need for all community agencies to plan and work closely together 4-H'er's Finding Place They Can Call Their Own Athens — Young people have changed in some ways. In ! ether ways they are the same as youngsters decades ago — they want a special place to call their very own. Georgia 4-H’ers are finding help in creating their special place through participation in the 4-H home improvement project. T. L. Walton, 4-H leader with the University of Georgia Cooperative Extension Service, says two recent publi cations for the project pr - |vide ideas, direction and meth ods for young people to create their special place. “Color, Texture, Design in Space” and “Create a Space of Your Own Through 4-H Home Improvement” have been in troduced through the combined efforts of the Extension Serv ice, National 4-H Service Com mittee and the S&H Founda tion. The 4-H home improvement program encourages boys and girls between the ages of 9 and 19 to use what they find a round them as they make something useful out of worth less objects. They also make new things from old. Four-H members learn to shop wisely, as well as plan for long-and short-range goals through the project. More than 187,000 boys and girls are working and learning in the national 4-H home im provement program. Walton says 15,626 of these are from Georgia. Support for the pro ject on the state level is given by the Sears Roebuck Founda tion and the W. D. Alexander Company. National support and awards are provided by the S&.H Foundation, Inc. Information about home im provement and other 4-H pro grams may be obtained from local county Extension agents. Boost To Economy Bobwhite quail represent about $3 million a year in Georgia’s economy. They attract more than 126,0 j hunters, many from distant states, into the fields ea—i season. The planting of cover and feed crops “ e -os to improve the annual harvest of these fine bir„>. with common goals established, the need for concerning ones self with families and indivi duals rather than thinking in terms of masses, the need for continuing involvement with citizens from every level and background, and the need for more detailed planning for projects the community needs. Dr. Dyer commended Slash Pine CAA for its efforts and successes and said the wide representation at the Novem ber 23 Thanksgiving Dinner meeting at South Georgia Col lege was evidence of commun ity commitment. More than 300 persons from Atkinson, Bacon, Ben Hill, Brantley, Charlton, Clinch, Coffee, Pierce and Ware counties attended the event in the college’s new Union Building. Tobacco Lease And Transfer George Dykes, Chairman of the Brantley County A.SC Committee announces flue cured tobacco lease and trans fer provisions effective for 1971 crop. No transfer by lease will be made from a farm which re ceived allotments and quota transferred to it by lease dur ins the same crop year. Lease and transfer of flue cured allotments and quotas under permanent authority is effective for 1971 and subse quent crop years. Lease a greements between farms within a county may be ap proved for any number of years up to five years. A new tobacco lease agree ment, known as Form MQ-119, is effective for 1971. Use of this form will save farm op erators and owners from ex ecuting multiple forms, as in the past. Operators of farms wishing to make a lease a greement should obtain the form from the county ASCS Office. Mr. Dykes cautions grow ers that there will be no sub leasing of tobacco allotments and quotas. Approval cannot be given of a transfer by lease from a farm which received allotment and quota transfer red to it by lease during the same crop year.
