Need Money?-Look To Your Woods If you’ve had a crop loss or for any Other reason find your self a little short of cash this fall, how do you plan to make en&s meet? If you have a cash reserve like some people, you’re lucky, and have to think only gbout next year. If yqu have ho reserve, you’ve probably thought of a dozen possibilities to get cash to tide you over. You’Ve probably thought of bor rowing from the bank or hoped that the Federal Government would make low interest loans available. But borrowed money must be repaid and that’s not easy. If you have timber, you’ve undoubtedly thought of cashing in on that also, and if done cor rectly, that is a mighty good thing to do. Having a well-managed wood land for use as a cash reserve in case of an emergency is lots better than borrowing money and some better than having money in the bank. Money and labor invested in woodland will return you a higher rate of in terest than money in the bank. Just an ordinary woods should give you an interest rate of 8 to 10%. \ What should one expect in, the way of dollars and cents from a good woodland? Trees have no cash value, except to-- in crease the land value, until they’re 15-16 years of age.

A well-stocked pine stand needs some cutting in it at the age of 15-16 years and every 6-8 years thereafter. These cut tings are to open up the stand so that the better trees can keep growing. You should get 10 cords of pulpwood per acre at each of the first two thinnings, worth about $4.00 per cord. Af ter the fifst two thinnings most of the trees removed will sell as sawtimber and an average figure of 3 to 4 thousand board feet per acre will be cut in each of the third, fourth and fifth thinnings. This volume is figured on International Vi-inch rule and at this time brings about $32-$35 Fer thousand. In a woods that has been kept thinned you should have 10-15 thousand board feet of sawtim ber per acre when the trees are about 50 years of age. At pres ent prices this should be worth S4OO to SSOO per acre. Cash like this is nothing to be sneez ed St, but it will take just a little care and attention to make V*ii. There is usually a best way to cut, thin, or manage woods, but they can stand some pun ishment and recover satisfactori ly. In case of an emergency heavier cutting can be done without seriously reducing the productive capacity, but this should be done only on the ad vice of a forester. If you’re going to cut timber this fall * and winter, and especially, if 'you need to cut heavily, get in touch with a forester before cut ting. ( The North Carolina Division ‘ of Forestry has foresters avail- 1 able to assist the small wood land “owner in managing his ' woods. Their advice will cost i 1 you nothing and could make : money for you. If timber mark- 1 ing is involved these foresters ‘ will mark your timber for you ‘ at the ■ rate of 15c per cord of pulpwood and 50c per thousand ' board feet for sawtimber, plus, the cost .of paint used. The ' above costs are effective after ' 20,000 board feet and 10 cords 1 of pulpwood have been marked ' free for each landowner—how- ' ever this 4re€ 20,000 boardTfeer and 10 cords is only allowed* once to each landowner. In most cases this small charge has 1 resulted in money for the own- 1 er. Contact your County For est Ranger or write direct- to 1 the District Office of the North Carolina Division of Forestry, | Elizabeth City, North Carolina, for a visit by a forester. • Remember—Take Care Os Your Woods And They'll Take Care Os You! 34 JAILED IN OCTOBER Jailer Bertram Byrum reports that during October 84 persons were placed in the Chowan County jail, with confinements ranging from one to 31 days.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1982. - J-- srs-.-.j H mL I ■ ' jlljj CHESS QUEEN Resem bling a queen in a giant chess set, this model wears a ball gown with a triple dome sil houette. Gown of purple was displayed in Allentpwn, Pa. | SENATOR | I Sam Ervin I | SAYS | Morganlon World tensions eased slightly last week even as the Cuban blockade was rein stated and negotiations dragged tediously over the removal of Russian missiles from the West ern Hemisphere. Although the showdown may not end dra matically, and in fact may ling er along for sometime, in the eyes of the world our nation has -eestablished its credibility for meaning what it says. Nineteen Latin American countries and most of the free world rallied quickly to support our strong position. Once again the world demonstrated that the United States gains respect when it acts witb4icmna*s in-, defense of meri torious principles. The significance of the show down is that Russia’s move into the Western Hemisphere, which was nurtured by apathy, wither ed in the face of a willingness to put a stop to the clear viola tion of the Monroe Doctrine. Khrushchev gambled, as other dictators have done, that he could present the world with an accomplished triumph before the democracies acted. Thi§ time military might, world opinion, and all the elements of strategy and diplomacy were marshalled on our side. Khrushchev backed down. No-one forsees any let up by Russia as a result of its ‘‘with drawal agreement” to curtail its drive to dominate the world. To morrow will brjng new crises. The world' seethes with power struggles which the Kremlin leaders will seek to exploit at every opportunity. But last week on the streets and in the shops of North Carolina, people sigh ed with momentary relief that the Third World War had been avoided. I think North Caro linians learned again the value of simple treasures, such as a warm home, ample food, pure water, and peaceful skies. In a larger sense, we came to cherish once again American pride, cour age, and respect—blessings se cured by veterans who bled and died to transmit a priceless herit age to our people. A grateful nation will pause to honor those who have served in all her wars on November 11. As a people, this generation has efidured crisis, war, and crisis, almost since Hitler marched into Poland on that fateful day in September, 1939. Soon ceremon ies will be conducted at Arling ton National Cemetery and in American war cemeteries in the United States, Europe, Asia and North Africa. They will pay tri bute to the ideals, the principles and the purposes defended by American sons and daughters. Concord’s Old Rude Bridge and the sands of Iwo Jima call to mind Theodore O’Tara’s immortal words: “On Fame’s eternal camping ground Their silent tents are spread, And Glory guards, with solemn round, The bivouac of the dead.” The Preamble of the Constitu tion of our country states the great national purpose of this hour: “We the people of the United States in order ... to pro vide for the common defense . . . and to secure the bless ings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitu tion for the United States of America.” ■ Americans of this day have the equal task of other generations who let no thought, or word, or deed sway them from the un swerving purpose of keeping our nation secure from the perils of would-be world conquers who rose up in their generation.

H. McMullan, super intendent of public welfare, re ports that during October 108 persons received old age assist ance in Chowan County, with $4,318 being distributed. There were 37 cases of aid to depend ent children, who received $2,722. OKH When the medical profession approves a new remedy, it is made public so that everybody may benefit from it. Poliomyelitis vaccine is a good example. Should you read or hear about a “secret remedy” for the cure of some serious disease, be on guard. Shun it by all means, because its use could be disastrous. Consult your physician. Ask his views on “mystery remedies.” He will give you a candid evaluation. There is nothing hush-hush about medical research and its discoveries. Medicine is an open book —for all the world to see.
