D. Frank McGougan Jr., Tab or City attorney, represented he Stevi lis estate at the in ;uest which was conducted by '«»roner 1>·ιι«. First to take the stand was Fugene Farrar, 38. colored,! Loris, driver of the log truck. Farrar said that by the time ne saw the I!I58 Ford driving to ward him, "That was it."

Frank Batten Warden Batten has bet·η going from town to town recently, urging newsmen to publicize the need for the replenishing of our forests wit!» seedlings. The most startling factor a bout the state's project to re vitalize our woodlands is thai it can be dt.nt with a cost of only $4.50 per acre for tlu seedlings. Says Batten, "The cost for 1,000 seedlings, enough to plant one acre, i> surprisingly lo.v. And landowners can get 1,000 trees for $4.51), and it requires nily eight to ten man hours to plant this number by hand." The warden discussed anoth •r factor beneficial to farmers: 'Financial assist.m < i> als« ivailahlc to farmers planting trees A total of $12.00 for planting an acr«· can be arrang ed through the ASC office. Pines should be planted be tween December and March, Batten says. Farmers interest ed in securing trees may con tact his oftiee in Chadbourn or inquire at the county agent's office.
