Forestry Newsletter
In our business we hear
many excuses and reasons for
landowners not cutting their
timber, and, needless to say,
most of them are wrong.
One that we hear quite
often is that “v/orms” will get
into their timber. The so-called
worms are really insects, and
more specifically they are bark
beetles. Bark beetles, it seems,
are always with us. They are
particularly bad in hot, dry
summers. Usually their attacks
are limited to an occasional
tree that has been injured by
lightning or mechanically by a
truck or some piece of farm
equipment.
During bad infestations,
beetles will spread out from
the initial attack and kill
several trees. If the original
attack happens to occur in a
thick stand, the beetles can
and sometimes do kill every
tree.
There is some concern that
the recent ice damage and wind
damage will cause a consider
able increase in the beetle pop
ulation and, consequently, will
in turn lead to large numbers
of tree kill this coming
summer.
While the beetle population
could increase tremendously
this summer, and begin causing

There is enough food avail
able for a buildup but favor
able not dry weather is needed
by these insects to develop into
a large population. Their
natural enemies, such as
diseases and other insects that
feed on them, must be at a low
point.
Any great buildup would
more than likely occur next
year instead of this year. This
has been the experience of
most infestations, that they
tend to buildup to killing
numbers in the year following
great areas of damage to
timber.
The best preventive measure
that can be done to ward otf
any prospect of future damage
to your timber or yard trees is
to have them in good health
and growing well.
Timber properly thinned
when necessary is the best
prevention of insects.
While insects will attack an
occasional tree that is low in
vigor or injured, they seldom
infest cut over stands, no
matter what time of year the
timber is cut.

VARIED ACTIVITIES
National 4-H Week
By MARY JO LOGAN
Some 750 members of the
Chattooga County 4-H Clubs
and their leaders have been ob
serving National 4-H Club
Week. There are some 150
boys and 600 girls in the 4-H
program here. Leaders are
M. H. Purcell, county Exten
sion chairman, and Pam
Tawzer, County Extension
agent.
The 4-H’ers meet once a
month in each of the different
schools of the Chattooga Coun
ty system. Each club has its
own officers which they elect.
Following the pledges and busi
ness, a short educational pro
gram is held by Purcell and
Miss Tawzer. Usually there is a
fun activity. Last month, the
Extension chairman Purcell
taught the boys to tie their ties
in a Windsor knot, and they
will have a contest at the next
meeting to see which tie is the
best.
At the last meeting, the girls
were given instructions on how
to make a “nifty nightie.”
They are to get their mother or
someone to help them, and
bring one to the next meeting
to be judges for first, second,
and third places.
The older girls in the
seventh and eighth grades were
given instructions on how to
make a long hostess skirt. They
will wear one to the next meet
ing and they will be judged.

MAKE INTERNATIONAL
BREAD
By RENAE ELROD
What makes you think of
home more than a loat of hot
bread, fresh from the oven? No
other aroma is so appetizing as
homemade bread. It goes so
well with other foods that
most of us like bread in some
form at every meal. It playsan
important part in the daily diet
of people in all parts of the
world, and is often called the
“staff of life.”
You no longer have to wait
days for bread to rise, as your
grandmother did. Yeast has
been improved and its action
speeded up. Methods of yeast
bread baking have improved,
; too. Today you can have
delicious homemade bread in
only a few hours, and not half
the trouble your grandmother
had.
Tuesday, Oct. 2. was the
International Day of Bread,
during Harvest Festival Week.
■ Groups from all over the world
; met in recognition of the role
of bread as the symbol of all
food.
Why not celebrate Day of
Bread this year w ith this quick
and easy recipe for Sally Lunn
Bread
It came to America from
Bath. I ngland. the home of
Sally Lunn. The unusual
feature is the shape . . . baked
in a tube pan. The texture is
fluffy, porous, and sponge-like.
Serve hot in wedges with
butter, or serve when day old
toasted and buttered.
Dissolve packages active dry
yeast in G cup warm water.
Stir m I 1 ; cups lukewarm milk.
2 tablespoons sugar, 1 '/z tea
spoons salt, 2 eggs, % cup soft
shortening, s’/z cups sifted
flour.
Beat until smooth (100
strokes). Cover and let rise
until very light (1 hour). Beat
down and pour into greased
10” tube pan. Let rise to
within one inch of top of pan
|(45 minutes). Bake until
j golden brown and crusty,
about 45 to 50 minutes at 350
degrees.

JUNIOR LEADERSHIP
By BARBIE PICKLE
Being a junior leader at 4-H
; Camp was a very rewarding ex
-1 perience for me. It taught me
responsibility and most of all
patience.
When I arrived at camp and
| was given my assignments for
j the week, I realized I was to be
i a mother to 30 girls for a week.
Being a junior leader wasn’t
i an easy job. I had pool duty
I and major interest classes to
attend. I had to keep children
out of trouble and also help
j keep them from getting hurt.
All of the campers envied
! the junior leaders because they
I were able to break the meal
line.
So, all you campers who
don’t like to wait in the line
, for meals, try going to camp as
i a junior leader.

DULL STATIONERY?
By SANDRA DEBERRY
Are you one of the many
people who write letters on
dull stationery? Well if you are,
this is your lucky day! Now
you can enjoy writing letters
with attractive stationery. All
you need is your stationery, a
sewing machine that makes
decorative stitching, a spool of
thread, and your imagination.
Put your machine to work! Use
the desired stitch and stitch
across the top or bottom (or
both) of the stationery. Stitch
around the flap of the envelope
for the final finish.
Good luck and lots of fun.

Councilman Charles Brooks
asked for the number of gas
cutins which have been made
since the city announced that
there could be no more such
cutins. He also asked for the
names of customers who have
been given gas service since the
shortage was announced.
“I think we should first take
care of persons living in the
city,” Brooks said.
It was agreed that no more
gas cutins would be made with
out the approval of the
council.
TERRORISTIC THREAT
Continued From Page 1
some harm to the customer,
the telephone company will
advise the victim to contact the
police department immediate
ly-
Hallett says most calls of
this nature are made by
persons who obtain their sole
satisfaction from voicing
obscene or annoyance things
on the telephone.
In most cases, the telephone
company will provide the cus
tomer with a logue which will
be used at the time the calls are
made. The police are able to
quieter evaluate the complaint
because of the logue kept by
the customer, and in most
cases, will authorize the tele
phone company to place a
trace on the victim’s phone.
The equipment used does
not have the ability to hear or
repeat. So the victim of
obscene calls need have no fear
of the embarrassment of what’s
listening in, Hallett noted.
The customer is instructed
to leave the receiver off the
hook when the next annoyance
call comes, and to report at
once to the telephone
company, “usually at a specific
prearranged number.” From
this point it is possible to
locate the telephone number of
the person making the calls.
“Naturally, we do not wish
to disclose all of the methods
employed by the telephone
company and police.” Hallett
said, “but most attempts to
locate and identify persistent
annoyance calls are success
ful.”
