Dear Mr. President: Our patriotic servicemen went to Vietnam and Southeast Asia not for love of war —but for love of liberty. There purpose was not to dominate a land and its people—but to keep from being dominated — by communism. They fought not just to promote freedom and sovereignty for one small land—but to preserve these sacred principles for all nations—in cluding our own. It is clear that Lt. William Galley believed in this philosophy. It is a sad in America when a dedicated soldier is punished for doing hs duty as God gave him the light to see that duty. Every patriotic Amer ican strongly objects to our servicemen being trained to kill the enemy and then being punished for doing so. The conviction of Lt. Calley has weakened the spirit of our American servicemen who have dedi cated their lives and sacred honor to preserve the i deals of Americanism. His conviction has stripped A merica of its honor and shaken it s belief in justice. You can bring America “Together again”, Mr. President, by immediately commuting Lt. Calley and setting him free. I urge you to do so. The hour is late. Note to all citizens of Sixth Senatorial District: I urge all citizens to immediately start a petition drive in behalf of Lt. Calley asking the President of the United States to free him. If the petitions are sent to me after they are signed, I will personally see that the President gets them immediately.

We honor and accept all life insurance. Plaintiff VS Barbara May Sapp, Defen dant Divorce action filed March 5, 1971. Order for service by publication dated March 2, 19- 71. The defendant, Barbara Mae Sapp, is hereby commanded to file with the Clerk of the Superior Court of the County of Brantley, Georgia, and serve upon plaintiff’s attorneys, Griffin & Houston, Attorneys * -k ■mJ > nil J* . ; B B * i If you plant your own tree, the most common approach is to do a minimum of work when digging the hole. to set set it in. However a little extra ef fort and time spent in prepar ing the planting site will give your new tree a better chance for survival. Poor sites, such as heavy clay, sand, or very rocky soils may require a hole much lar ger than the root system. A hole at least two feet wid er and six inches deeper than the spread of the roots will be sufficient. The subsoil that is removed from the hole should be discarded and replaced with .a peat moss and topsoil mixture. This mixture should be worked around the roots to make certain that no air poc kets exist. After filling the hole about 2|3 full of this mix ture, water the tree and then fill in the remaining area with topsoil, leaving a saucer like depression to hold addi tional water. There is more to be done af ter you have gotten the tree into the ground. The fragile young tree needs protection from the wind. This can be provided by driving a 2x2 inch stake into the ground on the windward side of the tree, with a wire threaded through a section of garden hose, to support the tree. This support should remain in place until the tree is well established. A regular watering program is very important. The water should be allowed to soak deeply into the ground. Water ing once a week will be suffi cient unless the soil is very sandy. Some species of trees should have the trunk wrapped with burlap or tree wrapping paper to prevent sun scald and insect damage. This wrapping should remain on the tree for two years. Almost all foresters, horti culturists and arborists agree that a good balanced fertilizer, applied correctly, benefits shade trees. Yet, few agree as to the analysis that should be used. The National Arborist Asso ciation recommends a 10-6-4 or similar analysis, containing 6 to 10 percent nitrogen. Us til we hav° more available da ta on tree fertilization in the Southeast, We will use the a bove recommendation. For trees over six inches in diameter, apply dry fertilizer at the rate of approximately two to four pounds per inch in diameter <measure the tree trunk 4-l]2 feet above ground). For trees under six inches, ap ply one to two pounds per inch, using the above recom mended fertilizer. 283-3131 OFFICE 283-0043 HOME at Law, 302 East Main Street, Blackshear, Georgia 31516, an answer within sixty (60) days of the date of the Order for service by Publication, as a bove set forth.

Griffin & Houston Attorneys for Plaintiff 4-22 A VIEW THE FOREST BY H. L. NEAL, JR. AREA FORESTER AND E. J. RHODEN COUNTY RANGER If the root system is restrict ed around patios, sidewalks, pools or other improvements, the amount of fertilizer should be reduced according to ac tual soil area. Since the .majority of nutri ent absorbing roots of trees are located within two feet of the surface, the fertilizer should be put is holes 18 to 24 inches deep and about two feet apart. The punch bar method of application for dry fertilizer is the most practical for the average homeowner. Holes can be punched with a soil au ger, punch bar or electric drill, with a special auger attach ment. A. good measure to use in determining the amount of fertilizer per hole, is a metal orange juice can (about two inches in diameter and three inches tall), using one can per hole. Finish filling the holes with Michigan peat, decayed sawdust, or loose soil. In ex tremely heavy clay, the holes can be filled with sand to im prove aeration. Fertilize in late winter or early spring. Later summer applications has the tendency to promote growth that is not desirable before winter. These recommendations are for TREES ONLY. They are not intended for evergreens such as Azaleas, Rhododen drons, Laurels, etc. For A merican Beech and Crab Ap ple, reduce the recommenda tions by one-half. Liquid fertilizers have some advantages over dry fertilizers but should be applied by qual fied aborists. In most cases, the homeowner will obtain better results by relying on qualified tree specialists rath er than attempting to do the job themselves.

Loyd County Agent Extension Service agrono mist are urging Georgia corn growers to save seed tags when they plant their corn this year. They also suggest saving a small sample of seed from every bag, keeping it with the seed tag, and making a note of the variety planted in each field. The agronomists pointed out that, if a grower plants a variety resistant to Southern corn leaf blight and then the blight shows up, this will in dicate the disease has chang ed or that we have a new strain. CHICKEN LITTER Disposing of chicken man ure by spreading it on crop land and pastures is a com mon practice in many parts of Georgia, including Brantley County. We should remember that chicken manure is po tent material and that its use should be considered carefully. Here are a few guidelines: 1 Do not apply more than four tons per acre in any one year. 2 Adjust your normal lime and fertilizer program to com pensate for the added nutri ents. A four-ton-per-acre appli cation of chicken .manure, on the average, will provide 120 pounds of nitrogen, 160 pounds of phosphorus and 120 pounds of potassium. 3 A soil test prior to spread ing the chicken manure will help you determine if it might possibly cause toxic or ex cessive nutrient problems.

BOX 1136 BRUNSWICK, GA. 31520 Hog Marketing Holiday A marketing holiday for Hog Farmers was called by Georgia NFO as announced by Sonny Rountree. Rountree said, NFO must shut down its hog collection points across the state, and hold its produc tion off the market for an in definite period. “Drastic measures must be taken soon to improve hog prices if we are to keep the independent hog producer from going under,” Rountree said. “We are calling this holiday to push hog prices up and fo cus public attention on con tined heavy economic losses to pork producers.” The holiday follows a na tionwide hog lift, launched by NEO in January in the face of record supplies flooding the market. The hog lift, suspend ed February 2, stopped the disastrous slide in hog prices and boosted prices at interior lowa and other markets $3.00 to $4.00 a hundred at top weights. Rountree said, ‘'A recent Ag riculture Department report shows full parity prices for 200 lb. butchers at $36.75 per hundredweight in mid Febru ary. The price to farmers at the time was $17.00 per hundred weight.” “It is intolable to have h-g-: selling at less than 50 percent of parity at the same time pac kers, chain stores and others handling pork continue tq report big profits,” Rountree said. “Department of Com merce figures show the after tax profits of food .manufactur ers was 10.9 percent in 1969.” “With farm credit increas ingly hard to come by because of low hog prices,” Rountree said. “The door is open to a big business take over of pork production.” Rountree said, “The NFO is not going to sit idly by while well financed feed companies and other big businesses come in and take over the hog busi ness through vertical integra tion.
