Protection of wild turkey hens in
South Carolina for a period of five
years was favored in the housav of
retfresentatives Friday when that
body passed and sent over to the Sen-1
ate a bill providing for such closed j
season. The wild gobbler did not!
fare so well, for in the same bill prohibiting
the hunting of wild turkey
hens for five years, the open season
for shooting wild male turkeys was
extended 15 days. At the present
time the season opens Thanksgiving
day and runs to March 1. The bill
extends the time for hunting gobblers

News Print Made
Of Georgia Pines
Nl?gwr? Fells, Mar. lg._Whitfe
ne-wwprint paper made from Georgia
pine ***** only even year* oki, * revolutionary
dkcovery in paper-making,
wee announced here lent night.
Newsprint is now made from 50year-old
trees, and last night's announcement.
involves * possibility of
farming "pejier" trees on a par with
orchards. *"
It also affords proepective coot reductions
to newspapers, and opens a
new avenue of approach to the economic
reforestation projects sponsored
by President Roosevelt. Millions of
acre? of those paper-making pines fill
Southern forests.
The "young" paper was made last
'Saturday at the Savannah plant of
the division of pulp and paper research
of the Georgia department of
forestry ami geological development.
The news was announced here last
night at a meeting of the Western
New York section of the American
Chemical iSociety by Dr. Charles H.j
Herty, former president American
Chemical Society and head of the
Georgian research.
"Perhaps the most sensational fact
about this new product," said Doctor
Herty, "is its strength and light
weight. R has a burst strength of
ten to twelve pounds a square inch,
compared with only six to ten pounds
for the standard newsprint. It is a
30-pound paper, while the standard
is 32.
"This means that newspapers if
able to buy it would receive 6 2-3 per
cent more sheets per ton, and their
mailing costs by weight would be
6 2-3 per cent less.
"The strength and weight testa
were made by W. G. McNaughton,
one of the best known experts in the
American paper trade. Ho is now
assistant research chemist at the Savannah
plant." aMUP*
The paper was made from slashpine
trees planted in 1926 from yearcld
seedlings by James Fowler on his
farm at Soperton, southeast Georgia.
There was enough for an issue of a
county weekly paper.
The trees all were "winnowings,"
cut to thin excessive growth. Fowler
plan-s in three more years to tap the
trees for turpentine and lateT to produce
lumber. They were remarkable
also, Doctor Herty said, because they
grew on sandy hills where experts
doubted good slashtpine growth.
The .seven-year period discovery
follows by eight months' evidence
from this same Georgian plant that
90 per cent of all the South's pine varieties
would make good newsprint
Until now forecasts of future developments
had been on an expectation,
Doctor Herty said, of 15 to 20 years
delay from planting to mill. Now
comes the orchard era prospect, for:
apple and pear trees start to bear in]
five to seven years and come into
commercial production in ten to thirteen.
Probably equal in speedy growth to
the slash-pine, said Doctor Herty, was
the South's loblolly. The other Southern
pines grow more slowly. Spruce,
the big source of paper now, matures
in 50 to GO years.
"A world of reforestation and economic
possibilities is suggested by this
new paper," Doctor Herty said. "Ln
the economic background is the fact
that two-thirds of American newsprint
now is imported.
"Spruce pulpwood costs $9 to $10
a ton. Pine in the South sells for
$3.50. The spruce is stored often for
a year in advance, .tying up capital
and adding interest costs. The pin*
is available without more than two or
three weeks' storage.
"Most of the sulphur used in papermaking
is hauled from Louisiana to
Canada, right through the South.
Much of the clay for filler for book
paper in America is produced by the
three Georgian counties, Washington,,
[iibb and Wilkinson. Lt is now stapled
long distances. In Georgia it almost
literally clings to the roots of
pine that can he made into good,
white sulphite paper.
The literature states that it a
more expensive to grind pine than
spruce. We tested this at me >a.-arvnah
plant ami found it not so. In
>ne test the pine grinding used icss^
power."

Mix Own Fertilizers
And Save Money
fty mixing fertiliser st home we can
come nearer supplying each crop on
ach type of soil the fertiliser it really
needs. The old method of using
8-JL3 or 8-4-4 for all crops, oorn, cotton,
etc., for all typee of soil either
light, sandy soils, red clay soils or
rich bottom lands vnaa wrong and expensive
to our farmers.
Light, sandy soils do not require as
heavy applications of acid as we have
been making. However, they should
receive more potash than has been
customarily applied. Ln general, a
good fertiliser to go under cotton or
corn on light, sandy soil would be a
mixture of 4-4-6. The 4 per cent of
ammonia should be gototn from two
sources, probably one half from cotton
seed meal and one-half from sulphate
of ammonia or nitrate of soda.
; Light land farmers will find that it
pays to use the 6 per cent potash.
Piedmont or red soils should receive
more acid and less potash.
In all cases fertilizer applied under
crops should be well stirred in the
soil in order to dilute the fertilizer
thoroughly, since our fertilizers are
concentrated chemicals and will severely
burn the tap root of young
plants. We often have splendid
stands of cotton only to see them
turn yellow, then red, wilt and die
within a few days. Thi$ is when the
tap root strikes the concentrated ball
of fertilizer which has not been stir-,
led in the soil,
I strongly urge this year that our
farmers cultivate only their best
lands leaving out the poorer parts
and applying liberal fertilizer to the
best lands which are cultivated, advises
Henry D. Green, the county
agent.
Your county agent will be very
[glad to assist any farmer to work
out a formula for home mixing his
fertilizers this year.

lay close together on the mother's
grave, a blanket covering all but

MY TRIBUTE TO THK TEACHER
(By J. W. Crabtree, Secretary, National
Education Association.)
There will be no moratorium on education.
A moratorium on education
would mean a moratorium on civilisation.
This is one of the reasons
why teachers will continue the schools,
pay or no pay. ''The nation, as it be-1
comes aware of the services and sacrifices
of teachers and of the great
significance of $heir courage and farsightedness,
will show tho appreciation
thait it has shown to its soldiers
who sacrificed their lives for their
cduntry.
In the crisis odf the seventies, I was
amazed, as a boy, at the sacrifices
made by tho pioneer teacher of that
day. Since then, I have observed
that whether in time of famine or in
time of plenty, the teacher has not
lived for self, but for the children
'and the community. 1 have noticed
that the selfish man or woman seldoni
iemains long in the profession.
When the terrible days of the
World War came upon us, who led
in food conservation? Who let! in
the sale of liberty bonds? Who led
in collecting food, clothing and funds
for the Red Gross? Who kept the
:?chools going, whether funds were
available or not? And what of the
teachers of today? They are serving
in a worse crisis than ever before.
Their responsibility is greater. Environment
is more destructive in its
effect on children. The teacher-load
is almost doubled. In spite of all
this, the teacher is again leading in
welfare activities. There may be a
delay in pay?a month or six months
?or the pay may be cut off for the
year, yet the work of the school goes
on!
Who is it that removes gloom from
the laves of Children who come from
homes filled with sorrow and suffering
because of the depression? Who
is it thai inspire children with courage
and ambition 7 Who teacbea
them to look forward bettor days?
Who is it that is saving civilisation
in these dark ihouro?
All honor, therefore, 'to the teacher
of 1933! Your courage and your devotion
stand out as the safeguard of
our democracy und as the hope of the
nation! '
