Seek To Determine Damage By Forest Fires

Determine ,Cost of Fires
Asheville. Dec. 11.—Picture
e paradox of government for-
fire preventers actually set
ting fire to forests—but that’s
what they’ve done.
They’ve fired plots in an effort
to answer that much debated
question—what Is the loss in
dollars and cents when lire
burns over a tract of land?
The Appalachian forest e.xper-
iment station with headquarters
here and serving the rarnlinas.
West Virginia, Virginia, Ken
tucky, Tennessee. Georgia and
Alabama in whole or in part, is
conducting these experiments al
so witli a view to preserving and
improving the American forest.
-\t iTPsenf the estimate of f"!--j
cst tire loss is little more
gue.ss-wijrk and the only
to satisfy tlio expert Is one
than
study
iias-
ed on previous knowledge of
what the burned area contained.
Species of trees, number of
each kind, sizes, ages, conditions,
how much young growth and
undergrowth, soil conditions and
every other pertinent factor.
A plot about 10 miles from
here was selected and burned in
1932. This plot, for years to
come, will be w'atched and ana
lyzed with minutest care.
Before burning, however, the
forests were searched for an
area cont.sining a sufficiency of
typical hardwoods, those species
being the object of inve.stigation.
When the I'lot was found, tour
plots around it were .set oft as
not to be burned. Thus a com
parison could ho made.
All plots were divided into

Benefit payments will be of
fered to North Carolina farmers
who wish to adjust their corn or
hog production in 1935, W, W.
Shay, swine specialist at State
College, has announced.
The maximum reduction to be
required by the 1935 contracts
will be 10 percent under the
base average for 1932 and 1933.
However, corn growers may re
duce as much as 30 per cent and
get benefit payments in propor
tion with their reductions.
The payments will be $15 a
head on the bogs by which the
1935 production will be cut iind-
er the base ave.rage and 35 cents
a bushel on the average corn

I drawn from corn cultivation.
The 193.5 contracts will be
: simpler than those for this year
. and will permit land retired

husif commodities, for use as the
farmer sees fit.

QUKS’noN And answer
Question; What seasoning
should be used In making saus
age at home?
Answer; Only salt, black pep
per, and sage are used In. home
made sausage. The amount to
use depends on how much saus
age Is to be made. For 50 pounds
of meat one pound of table salt,
two and one-halt ounces of
ground black pepper, and two
ounces of sage make a good sea
soning. These Ingredients should
be thoroughly mixed with the
meat before it is ground. The
amount of this seasoning may be
increased or decreased so as to
conform to the amount of meat
used.
