of woodland- “When I first came
boro a itnntsd growth of pine and
hardwood covered most of the land.
I saw the necessity of taking coie
if I was ever to have trees that I
might use for buildnig purposes and
for fuel. Ih apite of the fact that
the adjoining lands are burned over
every year. I have endeavored to
keep fire out of my woods, having
had only one of any importance. The
result of this protection is apparent

Presiding Elder. . gt j The city of Dalton, which is hearti-
Ui-v! W. G. Crawley* pastor o *jl y to be congratulated upon its enter-
im ; s c hurch in Augusta, l ,rtal ^ i prise, has established a municipal
hursday morning, and hi* - ct ‘ rm ° n [ forest, thirty acres having been set
a deep impression upon 18 j apart therefor. “Thinnings and im
provements,” we are told, “will be
carried on so as to get a maximum
growth per acre. Additional open
land will be planted to pine. (Fire
protection is a major consideration.)
It is hoped that this forest will prove
to be an inspiration to the people of
Whitfield county, thereby creating
forestry consciousness which will
benefit every one in the county by
advancing the cause of woodland
protection and timber growing.”
These testimonials, of which there
nre myriads more, we have culled
- , from a booklet entitled profitable
The next conference wi e [Forestry in Georgia, just published
-> Imperial Mill* near Eatonton. by ^ suu , ForeIt Scrvice The
cases reported range from small
experimental trants to commercial
projects comprising hundreds of
thourands of acres, from the levels
of tidewater to the ruggedest high
lands, and from hopeful beginnings
to splendid achievements. They
demonstrate that there is money in
timber growing, where the arch
enemy, fire, is conquered.

It takes a lot
of Comfort
to run up an ELECTRIC BILL
T KE cost of electrical comfort is
so low that no family need
“scrimp” on this item in tne budget.
You have to bum a 50-watt lamp
rour hours to add one cent to your
bill, while a 25-watt lamp runs eight
hours for a*penny.
For one cent yo.u can make
enough toast to feed the whole fam
ily and more—21 minutes of opera
tion for a penny.
An hour with the vacuum cleaner
finds your house thoroughly spruced-
up. And only one cent has been
added to the bill for all that work,
which would take you many, many
hours by hand.
Run your radio from seven to
nine in the evening, and that t two-
hour entertainment has only coat ybu
orte penny. And if the elec
tric fan has been running
during that time^it has only
added half a cent to the
cost—a fan will run four
hours for a penny.
For one cent you can run a wash
ing machine one hour, a heating pad
four hours, a curling iron ten heurs.
And your electric refrigerator can
run steadily for one hour, while you
are freezing a dessert, and add only
one cent to the bill.
Truly it takes a lot of comfort to
run up an electric bill! It is the small
est item in the family budget. It is
the one item in the household budget
whose price is lower today than in
pre-war days—all the rest are far
higher than they were in 1913. On
this Company's lines alone the i°29
rates represent a saving of over
$500,000 a year to the people for the
same service.
