DYING TREES
People tend to forget about
trees, particularly when it
comes to watering.
This tendency has probably
developed because generally
trees can go through a summer
with no supplemental water in
addition to rainfall. This sum
mer is proving to be an excep
tion. Larger old trees in adcfi
tion to the younger trees which
we might expect are showing
definite symptoms of drought
stress. These symptoms in
clude a general wilting of the
foliage, marginal burn of
leaves, and some unusual
foliage colorations.
Tie first trees to show this
drought stress are those
planted in poor locations.
Trees that have a lot of foot
or vehicle traffic under their
canopy are among the first to
be af{ected. This traffic in
creases soil compaction and
reduces water penetration.
Under normal weather condi
tions the decline of these trees
is so gradual as to almost go
unnoticed until the tree is prac
tically dead. Lack of adequate
soil moisture this summer has
hastened the decline of these
trees. Around such trees it may
be necessary to scratch the soil
surface in an effort to break up
this hard crust. Where severe
compaction has occurred from
extended periods of traffic, this
procedure may be inadequate
and more drastic action may be
called for to break up the sur
face compaction. It is sug
gested that one-half or less of
the root system should be sub
jected to this type of treatment
in a single year. Do part of the
root area one year and another
part the next year. This pro
vides some insurance if some
roots are injured during this
procedure.
Trees surrounded by con
crete or asphalt are also sub
jected to more drought stress
than ordinary. Not only do
these materials accentuate the

heat problems but they act as
a sponge taking up available
moisture. Supplemental water
ing is essential for trees in
these types of areas this year
— if it 1s allowed by conserva
tion requirements.
Dogwoods are just one
species of many different trees
being affected severely. They
are mentioned here gecause
they illustrate those trees that
sometimes show unusual leaf
coloration due to drought
stress. Pink Dogwood especial
ly is showing wg‘:t seems to be
a premature fall color out on
the ends of branches.
Watering a large tree will
take considerable water
because the soil under at least
one-third of the tree canopy
will need to be wetted to a
depth of 24 inches. This sounds
expensive but when compared
to the cost of replacing a large
tree, is actually cheap.
What are some of the possi
ble consequences of not water
ing? Many unwatered trees
that will survive the stress will
be weakened considerably.
This might lead to further in
jury this winter or to disease
attack.

The family has always been a basis for
strength and support. I listened to two
men discussing marriage and lifestyles.
One was a grandfather, with kids married
and surviving. The other believed in
something he called an *‘open marriage,”
where he and his wife both had the right
to ‘‘run around”’ with others, sometimes
more than one at a time. The open mar
riage exponent seemed unsatisfied with
life, feeling that something was missing in
spite of his related experiences that sound
ed more like a novel than happiness and
achievement.
With another daughter getting mar
ried, I was wondering about this mixed-up
world where individuals lack commitment
and talk a lot about relationships, but
seem to miss that simple four-letter word:
love. My dictionary defines “love’ as a
profoundly tender, passionate affection

and a feeling of warm personal
attachment. }
It doesn't put *‘love” into a time frame.
It doesn’t define the responsibilities and
obligations of the parties “in love.” It
overlooks an explanation that true love,
sharing and caring, develops with time,
and is tolerant, even on ‘‘bad days,” in
sickness and in health, for richer or poorer.
These are all simple unsophisticated con
cepts. Maybe with some explanation,
training, tolerance and good examples,
plus love, the family unit will survive and
the family members will even experience
happiness.
It makes you wonder!

By MARK HOPTROFF
Social Security
Field Representative
in Chattooga County
In an effort to help
Medicare patients understand
their rights to quality care in
the nation's hospitals, a nation
wide effort is geing made to
provide them with more infor
mation about hospital
discharges and their rigfit to
appeal dg.ischarge decisions. The
greater awareness is expected
to reduce instances of so call
ed ‘‘quicker and sicker”
discharges and the public
perception of declining quality
of hospital care for Medicare
patients.
Under the plan, a message
explaining patients’ ri%hts and
ap(i)eal procedures will be firo
vided to all of the more than
nine-million Medicare patients
admitted each year to hospitals
which are reimbursed under
Medicare's prospective pay
ment system. This new system
has resulted in the need for
greater patient awareness of
Jz{/{)peal rights under the
edicare program. Under the
prospective payment system,
which went into effect in Oc
tober, 1983, hospital services
for Medicare patients are reim
bursed according to pre-set
rates, which vary according to
diagnosis. The rates ret%ect
average costs of treating
specific conditions.
As the ‘‘message from
Medicare” explains, fiospitals
must inform Medicare patients
48 hours in advance of a
hospital initiated discharge.
If patients feel they are be
ing asked to leave the hospital
prematurely, they or their
authorized representative
should file an appeal by
telephone or in writing with the
peer review organization
(PRO), a physician organiza
tion under contract with
Medicare to review the hospital
treatment of Medicare pa
tients. The PRO will review the
case in ?luestion and decide
within three working days
after receiving the appeal. If
the decision sufiports tEe need
for continued hospitalization,
the patient can remain in the
hospital under Medicare pay
ment until the next discharge
decision point is reached.
If the PRO decides that
Medicare payment is no longer
appropriate, the patient
becomes liable for all Rospital
costs starting the third day
after receiving the written
discharge notice. The name, ad
dress and telephone number of
the PRO servicing that
hospital will be listed on the
written message.
Anyone who needs more in
formation on this process may
contact the Social Security
office.
Textiles Seek New MFA Pact
The American, Canadian
and European textile in
dustries have released a joint
statement callir&f for a renew
ed, improved Multifiber Ar
rangement to promote orderly
development of world trade in
textiles to prevent market
disruption.
The MFA is an interna
tional trade aFreement to pro
vide for orderly trade in textile
and apparel products involving
49 sifiatory nations. The cur
rent MFA expires July 31.
Dewey L. Trogdon, presi
dent of the American Textile
Manufacturers Institute, in
releasing the statement said,
*The 15 S., Canadian and
European textile and apparel
industries have been decimated
by imports. We all believe that
not only is a stronger, more ex
plicit MFA needed, but that
our governments must make
the commitment to use every
provision of the agreement to
reduce import growth to the
rate of growth of the domestic
markets.
*“‘Since 1980, imports of tex
tiles and apparel into the U. S.
market have more than doubl
ed and more than 300,000 fiber,
textile and apparel jobs have
been lost,” Trogdon said. ‘‘ln

Four North Georgia Moun

backcountry regions in the last
few years. The trails range
from six to 14 miles in leng&l.
and the difficulty is mostly
moderate with some strenuous
sections.
Guided backpacking trips
are being offered on these trails
this fall, starting with Vogel
State Park on Oct. 11 and 12.
Fort Mountain State Park
follows with a trip on Oct. 18
and 19.
Cloudland Canyon State
Park is the next weekend on
Oct. 25 and 26, and the last trip
is at Black Rock Mountain
State Park on Nov. 1 and 2.
A backpacking clinic is
scheduled for Aug. 2 at Vogel
State park. A professional in
structor will initiate J)ar
ticifiants into the world of
backpacking. Topics will in
clude food, equipment, first aid
and how to put everything
together. There is a $5 fee for
the clinic and a $lO fee for each
backpacking trip.
