Stallings advises "that dlie to past cutting practices Kian of Perquimans County's Woodland tracts are not satisfactorily stocked with desirable trees." lOne method of reforesting poorly stocked woodlands is by crushing the cull trees and underbrush with a crawler type tractor and heavy drum chopper. The chopped material is; usually burned and nursery grown seedlings planted. .1 Another way to prepare the land for planting is to cut the remaining cull trees with a K G. blade on a crawler tractor and then windrow the material. The woodland is treated much like areas being cleared for row crops except the stumps, etc. are not removed. Therefore the cost is much less. Cost-sharing assistance is available from the Perquimans County A.S.C.S. office for site preparation and planting tree seedlings. Total reforestation costs vary with the condition of the land and cull material to be destroyed; however, when cost' sharing is received out-of-: pocket costs normally run about $30.00 per acre. ';For a free examination and detailed information con cerning reforesting your: cut -"ifter woodland call County Ranger "Luke" Stallings at 426 5551 or 297-2557.

August Draft Call To Include Numbers 7-75 (Continued from Page 1) of Defense has announced that no more than 50,000 men will be drafted in 1972. Today's instruction by Acting Director Byron Pepitone to State Headquarters and local boards primarily affects men who are members of the 1972 First Priority Selection Group, which is composed of registrants in Classes 1-A, 1-A-O and 1 -O who were born in 1952. A small number of older men also will be issued orders for August inductions. These are men who recently have lost deferments or whose initial postponements of induction expire during the month. The instruction issued today also direct the scheduling of Armed Forces preinduction examinations for prime draft candidates with RSNs through 100. RSN 90 is the current cut-off number for examination. For young men who may face the possibility of induction during 1973 (those born in 1953), today's instruction also sets RSN 100 as the 1-H cut-off number. This instruction will prompt local boards to reclassify all registrants born in 1953 with RSNs of 101 or higher into Class 1-H, an ad ministrative holding category. This action assures these registrants that they will not be actively processed for induction unless there is a major change in expected military manpower needs. Registrants born in 1953 with RSNs 100 and below will be processed for possible in duction, including the scheduling of Armed Forces preinduction examinations for those with RSNs of 50 and below. August will be the fifth month in which inductions have been handled on a Uniform National Call basis. Under this system, all eligible registrants with the same lottery numbers are issued induction orders to report in the same time period, regardless of their locations in the country.

Golf and tennis have reached the tournament level--with growing interest and par ticipation among members and wives".

A rainbow to the windward is another sign. Smoke curling downward and staying close to the earth is yet another. More distant clues can be found by watching the moon, a halo or web-like cirrus clouds high in the sky usu ally mean coming rain-maybe a day away. In summer and at some other times of the year a dry morning (without dew) indicates rain.
