Suggestions to Anyone
On Sale of Pulpwood
One of the State Commission of
•Forestry has issued a leaflet giving
advice to timber owners entitled “Are
You Selling Pulpwood?” It sets forth
the following points for their guid
ance:
Do not .sell from understocked
stands: Sell no trees under nine inches
in diameter at breast height except
in thinning. Most land is capable of
maintaining good growth on 200 tiees
of that size to the acre. That is ap
proximately 30 cords. To grow fewer
trees means less income, while taxes
and interest continue the same.
Study tree growth: An eight-inch
tree, under good growing conditions,
will be ten inches in five years. One
hundred eight-inch trees will make ten
cords. One hundred ten-inch trees
will make sixteen cords. Those same
eight-inch trees would be worth at
$1.00 per cord stumpage, $10.00.- The
ten-inch trees would be worth $16.00
and even more because they require
less labor in cutting to make a cord.
Study your markets: Do not sell
tall, straight, fast-growing pines for
pulpwood for ten cents when they
may be worth 50c to 75e as poles or
piling. If you have slash or long-leaf
also consider naval stores values be
fore selling. A ten-cent trce for pulp
may he worth 6 1-3 cents a year for
a three year naval stores lease and
you can still sell for pulp in the fourth
year. Whether selling for pulp, poles
or piling or saw timber get bids from
several buyers.
Know what you have before you
sell: Count and measu-v your trees.
By tables secured from your state
Commission of Forestry you can ap
proximate your voiume.
Mark the trees that are to be sold:
Use paint, \vhitewash or chalk in an
old sock to mark the trees that are to
be sold cr trees that are to remain.
Sell by the cord or unit: Do not
sell for a lump unless you know what
you are selling. Sell by the cord (128
cubic feet) or unit (160 cubic feet).
Do not use pens as units of measure.
Have a written agreement with the
buyer: Put in Writing your deal with
the buyer—specify trees to be cut,
what is to be done with tops, when
and how payment is to be made, care
to be taken with standing trees which
remain. Get a copy of a suggested
timber sales agreement from your
State Commission of Forestry.

North Broad Street Cairo, Georgia
Bishop Moore Speaker
Here On Friday Night;
Wesleyan Drive Begun
The “Save Wesleyan” campaign
definitely got underway in the Thom
asville district of the Methodist
Church, and locally, last -Friday.
Bishop John M. Moore, of Texas, a
former presiding Bishop of the Geor
gia conferences for four years, and
one of America’s outstanding scholars,
addressed a district rally at Camilla
Friday and came here Friday night
to address a splendid group at the
Cairo Methodist Church. Bishop
Moore remained in Cairo until shortly
after midnight Friday when he took
a train for his home in Dallas. He had
spent all of last week in Georgia
speaking at the “Save Wesleyan” ral
lies in various parts of the state.
Several Cairoites attended the Ca
milla rally at which the following
others, in addition to Bishop Moore,
were speakers:
Dean Hollis Edens of Emory Junior
College at Valdosta; Dr. Marvin S.
Pittman, president of the South Geor
gia Teachers College at Statesboro;
and Dr. Dice R. Anderson, president of
Wesleyan College.
Emphasis was laid upon the history
of Wesleyrn College, which is now in
the 103rd year of its history, and which
numbers among its alumnae Madame
Chiang Kai Shek and Miss Laura Hay
good, of China, whose work in that 1
land was classed as being outstanding
in the history of the w'orld.
Rev. C. Byrd Harbour, presiding el
der of the Thomasville District, and
Rev. Roy Sampley, pastor of the Ca
milla Church, were present at the ses
sions of the conference. The former
also came to Cairo for Bishop Moore's
address.
The Camilla meeting was one of a;
series which will be held in every dis
trict of the Methodist Church in Geor-!
gia. The properties of Wesleyan Col-;
lege have passed into the hands of the i
bond-holders of the institution, and|
this has made it necessary for the
church to re-purchase the buildings
and campus if this college is to be re
tained by Methodism.
A resolution was passed 'which
pledged the Thomasville District to
do its share in the redemption of this
historic college, which was the first in
the history of the world to grant a
degree to a woman, and similar pled
ges have been made locally.
Wesleyan College Repurchase
Campaign.
The campaign here for the repur
chase of Wesleyan was begun on Mon
day and so far the subscriptions have
totaled about $1,000. Quite a number
have not been seen yet, but the can
vas will be continued until all on the
lists have been approached.
Buying livestock feed that can be
produced is just as extravagant as
buying canned foods that can be
grown.
CARD OF THANKS.
We wish to take this method of |
epres&ing our thanks to the many I
friends for their kindnesses and sym
i
pathy during the illness and at the
dsath of our wife and mother.
May God’s richest blessings abide
