USPS 518-880 THE STAR FORTY-FIFTH YEAR, NUMBER 19 Industry- Deep Water Port- Fine People- Safest Beaches In Florida PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA 32456 THURSDAY, JANUARY 7, 1982 000 Appraiser Files Suit Against Board Asking Courts to Force Payment of Office Budget Request Gulf County Property Appraiser Joyce Williams is taking the Gulf County Commission to court. In a Writ of Mandamus filed in the courts in December, Williams is asking the court to force the Gulf County Commission to pay her office $4,057.00, she says ner office is du6 for operational purposes for the first quarter. ' Williams charged in her suit that the respondents' (County Commission) refusal to pay is a direct and unambiguous violation of their ministerial legal duty to make quarterly payments to the petitioner based upon the petitioner's budget as finally approved by the Department of Revenue pursuant to Florida Statutes. Williams billed the Commission for $23,- 788.25 in October as one-fourth of the budget money approved for her office by .the state Department of Revenue. The county paid the office $19,446.19, one quarter of the amount which the Commission approved for the operational budget of the office in their budget deliberations. The suit brings to a head a disagree- ment between Williams and the Commis- sion in which the Commission wanted the Appraiser to stay within a five percent budget increase and set her budget at $84,000 which would meet their criteria. Williams asked for $93,000 and the State Department of Revenue said she should have $95,000. Williams is suing for the $95,000 budget. When asked to comment on her actions, Williams said "The writ speaks for itself". Williams makes 15 points in her suit, which was prepared by. a firm of Tallahassee attorneys, outlining the Board's failure to take .the proper steps to oppose her budget request and their refusal to meet the financial needs of the office. COUNTY TO OPPOSE The County Commission has instructed their attorney, William J. Rish, to oppose the suit, stating their position in the matter. The Commission will defend their quarterly budget payment in Octqoer as being necessary due to the lack of a property assessment roll on which to base tax reVdhues saying Williams, herself, is responsible for the lower payment in this instance. The Board instructed all offices. in the Courthouse to continue their operations based on last year's budget amounts until an assessment roll was presented and a new budget could be worked up. Mrs. Williams' office was paid the, quarterly operational funds based on this amount and the Board's instructions on spending pending passage of a new budget. The County also is defending its operations based on an agreement reached with Williams and the Department of Revenue for an amount which was lower than her request or the DOR direction. Rish says both Williams and DOR were familiar and agreed with the interim financial plan. On the day after the agreement was reached Williams changed her mind and made her formal request for her original budget amount. The County refused to pay it. The Board is armed with a letter which Williams wrote to the Department of Revenue asking that the limits of the law for opposing her budget be waived and that the county be allowed to file their objections at a late date, which the County did. The County's fiscal year starts on October 1, the date of Williams quarterly payment request. Tax bills went into the mails the last week in December, because of the property roll delay, which resulted in a delay in tax receipts. The quarter beginning this month is the first quarter in which offices in the Courthouse were supposed to have requested a full budget amount. In Williams' case, however,, her quarterly request will be more than the Commission agreed to pay in each quarter of the year, provided she still sticks with her $95,000 budget request. The Commission answered the writ on Tuesday of this week. After the answer is received by the courts, a hearing will be- scheduled for the two parties to come before the: judge provided one side doesn't relent before the:: hearing date. After 17 years of motorized mail delivery here in Port St. Joe and over the nation, the United States Postal Service is entering a program they call "de-motori- zation" in order to save fuel and money. Postmaster Tom Sapp said this week that one of the local routes will be delivered by a postal service employee on a bicycle, with the remaining two routes still being' served by motorized carriers. It was all the way back in 1965-66 when the last bicycles were used for carriers to deliver the mail here in Port St. Joe. The Jeep-like vehicles were pressed into 'service at that time and have served the "department ever since. "This is a nation program of de-motor- ization" Postmaster Sapp said. "We're" going to use bicycles in areas where we can use them and get the job done within the time limits." Bicycles were used for years by the Postal Service, but they were replaced by the' motor vehicles in order to use less carriers to cover the same areas. Now the bicycles are being -pressed into service again in areas where population is concentrated, allowing for the same delivery time with less cost. Here in Port St. Joe, mail carrier Stanley Winfield received the first bicycle carrier to be placed into service and is shown in the photo above on his rounds. Postmaster Sapp said it is still undeter- mined whether or not other routes will be converted to bicycles. -Star photo City Sells Property to Industry Two Acres On Gulf County Canal Sold to Materials Transfer The City Commission offi- cially signed the deed yester- day in a special morning meeting to transfer ownership of some two acres of land to Materials Transport, Inc., on the Gulf County Canal. The property, two-thirds of which is under the. waters of the canal, was transferred to the firm for a price of $7,000 per acre. Before the sale was con- summated, Material Trans- fer's engineers had to present the City with plans for use of the land in order to assure .the City that planned use would not in any way affect the dike. around the holding pond of the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The firm has plans to utilize the extra property to expand its barge mooring facilities at the new coal transloading. facility. The property acquir- ed from the City will have a barge mooring station con- structed on the banks of the canal in front of the east edge of the Wastewater Treatment Plant. EARMARKS CASH The Commission officially approved Ordinance number 129 Tuesday night, which would earmark interest money presently being earned from deposit of surplus Waste- water Treatment Plant funds for payment of renovation -projects- -scheduled to get uhderway at the plant during the first quarter of this year. The City has some $3 million on deposit, earning interest. The ordinance will provide for the interest money to be used for the renovations, payment sum of $75,000 annually will be areas.

The Board was on orders from the State Depart- ment of Education to remove all sealing, painting, and acoustical materials from school buildings which con- tained asbestos. Superintendent Walter Wil- der reported that some of the rooms would need more work, as removing the original ma- terial had created a bad acoustical problem in some areas which would need fur- ther work to correct. The Board expects to do this extra work during the summer. The two county high schools still contain the asbestos ma- terial, since removal here is a major undertaking, which will mean completely closing off the buildings when-r the re- moval work starts. "We will haveto wait until the summer recess to do these buildings",' Wilder said. The Board received a grant (Continued On Page 3) Ambulance Squad Installs New Officer Slate Port St. Joe's Squad of the Gulf County Volunteer Ambu- lance Service held their an- nual installation dinner meet- ing Saturday night, with Coun- ty Commissioner Billy Branch .installing the slate of officers who will be charged with operating the service for the coming year. Commissioner Branch ins- stalled Catherine Ramsey as Squad Chief; Terri Lyles as first assistant; Carol Ramsey as second assistant; Jerry Parrish, captain of ambulance service and Frenchie Ram- sey, supply captain. Sheila Harper was desig- nated as "EMT of .the Year" by the squad and presented with a plaque for her outstand- ing service for the year. The Squad Chief recapped the past year of activities which saw eight new members join the squad, four resign and one to die. Two former mem- bers also came back to the squad after absences. During the year, the service received several new pieces of equipment, including a new ambulance vehicle and held two educational. courses in training, defensive driving and extrication. During the year, the service upgraded its personnel adding a registered nurse, one LPN, one paramedic and three emergency medical techni- cians. During the coming year, the service is hoping to add a new radio system to their com- rescue vehicle and a shed for munications network, an ad- two vehicles which are now vanced life support system; sitting out in the weather.

But some homeowners will notice that the rules are dif- ferent when they receive their renewal notice this week. This year, the state Law is requir- * ing some homeowners to pro- ve again that they qualify for the exemption. One-tenth of all property owners once again must go through the full application process to receive the exemp- tion, which can bring hun- dreds of dollars in savings on property taxes. The Florida law is trying to make sure that people who are not entitled to the full $25,000 exemption for the five year resident requirement do not receive it. Since 1980 the property tax exemption for people who live in a home they own has in- creased from $5,000 to $25,000 for five-year residents of Florida. That can mean as much as $500.00 in reduced property taxes per household going to local governments, school boards and other taxing bodies. This year marks the final stage of a three-phase in- crease in the Homestead Ex- emption approved by Florida voters in September 1980., Because many Florida pro- perty owners are newcomers and may be tempted to falsely claim five-year residency, the State wants to screen a ran- dom slice of all property tax- payers and make them re- apply for the Homestead Ex- emption. "It's a test to see if people are truly entitled to the ex- emption, it is also an attempt to curb fraud, because exemp- tions have gotten to the point now where they are worth a lot of money," said Joyce D. Williams, Property Ap- praiser, Gulf County. People found guilty of filing a false exemption report and paying reduced taxes on that basis may be liable. Ninety percent of the people who have received homestead exemp- tions in the past will receive a routine renewal card in the mail early this month. These property owners wishing to renew their exemptions would simply have to fill out the card and mail it back. But the ten percent who are selected at random to reapply for the ex- emption must fill out a detail- ed questionnaire concerning voter registration, auto ownership, driver's license number and other items. It is the same process as applying for the initial exemption. The most important part concerns the recording of the property owner's deed. A Homeowner must be able to identify the book volume and page on which his deed is recorded in County records. He also must report the date of occupancy of his home and the date the deed was recorded. "I really hope the public will cooperate with us and not feel that we are asking them to do something which isn't necessary, but that the law says that this has to be done," says Joyce Williams, Proper- ty Appraiser. The deadline to apply for or renew Homestead Exemp- tions is March 1, and it is very important that they be filed before the deadline. People who have lived in Florida less than five years are eligible on- ly for $5,000 exemptions on property taxes. An Applicant must consider the home his permanent place of residence as of January 1, on this year. Additional exemptions of $500.00 each are available for the blind, the disabled and widows An increased exemp- tion for the elderly has been discontinued. People who have been totally and per- manently disabled in the course of military service may receive a full exemption from property taxes. 20* Per Copy J Pedal Power - f Editorials and Opinions THE STAR PAGE TWO THURSDAY, JAN. 7, 1982 At least 14 voters in Wakulla County have filed a legitimate objec- tion to a recent ruling by a Tallahassee circuit judge which gave former Wakulla County judge Evelyn Flack, her old job back. Flack lost her judge's seat three years ago to Mike Carter on the basis of two absentee ballots. Flack had a two vote majority for reelec- tion after the regular votes were east, but when the absentee votes were added in, Carter had a two vote victory , Since that time, Flack has been ih court trying to overturn Carter's victory by aiming at the absentee allots cast. Last week, Judge Victor M. Cawthon of Tallahassee tossed out all 174 absentee ballots cast because 6e said five were cast illegally. This gave Flack her two vote margin back and she is now declared the Wakulla County Judge and Carter is out, after having served for three years. Fourteen of Wakulla's voters who cast an absentee ballot have fil- 6d an appeal to the decision, claim- ing the judge's action denies them their right to vote. While we're not a judge and have very little working knowledge lriu " Haitians in Miami have stirred themselves the past two or three weeks and started chanting "liberty, liberty", because the United States ts keeping them in camps in the Miami area. More Hype Senator Paula Hawkins has announced she will revamp the main ingredient which led to her election in the first place. Senator Hawkins has an- nounced she will change image building methods. The housewife from Maitland was elected in the first place by a good publicity program rather than running on a platform of concrete accomplishments. Possibly Senator Hawkins' road might be made a little more smooth if she would settle down and address the issues rather than rely on publicity hype. !- of the intricities which reside inside the covers of law books, we would be mighty upset, like the 14, if our vote was negated by a judge because after close investigation, there was some small technicality which caus- ed five of 174 absentee ballots to be declared illegal. For years, Florida has used absentee ballots and they have been the favorite targets of politicians who are disgruntled with the out- come of elections. Now, when a per- son casts an absentee ballot, he is not sure whether or not it will ever be counted. In our opinion, as long as Florida has its present absentee ballot law, the ballots should be honored until the law is changed to put some tight controls over their use to make sure they are cast cor- rectly and according to the law. We can imagine Judge Flack was chagrined over losing such a lucrative position as county judge, but if she wanted the position, she should have been forced to wait for the next election, unless there was a blatant disregard of the law in regards to vote casting. When a person casts a vote, at the polls or by absentee ballot, they should have reasonable assurance it will be counted. W-1k I church and the country. Re- pent, fellows, and begin doing what you promised to do when you first professed Christ. You unchurched men who, so far in life, have not been willing to yield your lived to Christ and Biblical principles can help turn this country around by going all out for Christ and country. People Expect Their Watching the World Go By Vote to Count Again, the law is being flaunted here in Florida in the case of the Hai- tians. Nobody could commiserate with the Haitians more than we do. We deplore a situation in which so- meone like BabyI Doc Duvalier can take advantage of'his own people to' the point of despotism. The United States has laws and procedures for the receipt of im- migrants into our country. These Haitians in Miami came into this country illegally and, under our law, could have been sent back to Haiti. They were allowed to stay even though they didn't qualify for any of the criteria by which immigrants enter this country. We realize they were desperate to even attempt their method of en- try into this country, but they should also realize the United States is ben- ding over backward in trying to help them and they cannot expect to have everything they want overnight. Given a little time, the United States will probably absorb these people into the nation, but we cannot see where they have the rights to de- mand anything. Women and children in Gulf County (and America) would follow the men in such an awakening. Men, the monkey is on our backs! We don't have to do it. However, we have to lead in this awakening or see our families-and our country go down the drain. Is your home, your children, your grand- children, your country- worth the effort? "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and the nations that forget God," says the Bible. Oh, yes, men. your life is your own and you can do with it as you please. All you have to do to destroy your family and your nation is- NOTHING. Now, as you watch the world: go by, men, why not begin today- go all out for God and country here in Wewahitchka and Port St. Joe. Then, you will have done your part to save our society. But, even today, it may already be too late! Since we don't know, let us give it a try. By Adolph Bedsole Pastor, Wewahitchka First Baptist Church A new year, 1982, is here- NOW! This new year finds our entire world in agony- war, famine, oppression, crime, pestilence, persecution, depression, inflation, disease. Many in our world perish to death every day. We keep hearing that one third of the people of the world go to bed hungry every night. Also, one third of the people of our world are dominated by Communists. The year 1982 of- fers little hope for either of these groups. Fortunately, Gulf County has been spared the ravages of Communism and the dark spectre of people dying of star- vation. But, our county has its share of needy people. The true character of our county is revealed by the attitude of the "haves" toward the "have nots.'.' Surely, our people will reach out a helping hand to those in genuine need. However, much of the poverty and need in America is self-imposed. Too many feel that the government owes them a living. Liquor, laziness and irresponsibility has pro- duced an army of professional panhandlers who expect work- ing people to nurse them through life. Society is not obligated to reach out a helping hand to self imposed need. What does America face in 1982? A deepening recession? An old fashioned depression? A resurgence of inflation? Escalating crime? Waste and fraud in government? Col- lapse of our economy? A grow- ing arms race with Russia? War?- conventional or nuclear? Any or all of these are indeed grim possibilities! Since American society is "hooked" on its so called "life- styles", the nation can expect more of that which we have experienced in recent years. Therefore, the most optimistic will be shrouded in pessimism- UNLESS- we Americans have it within us to return to the Judeo-Christian standards of ethics and morals as revealed in the Holy Bible. However, ethical and moral standards cannot sur- vive without a deep spiritual awakening. America has already tried ethics and morals without spirituality. based on Biblical teachings. It hasn't worked! It can never work. So? What can people in Gulf County do? True- we can't change the nation but we can change Gulf County. How? Men, it is up to you! You men who are backslid- den and inactive church members can get the ball roll- ing by a re-commitment of your life to the Lord, the We're Off and Running In A New Year After Ritual of Closing Out Old I WOKE UP WITH red blood-shot bleary eyes over the New Year week iend. Like many other Americans, it .took a cold cloth over the eyes and a Coaxing of my inner will to get going. No, I didn't tie one on New Year's Eve. I'm still a teetotaller after the New Year's holiday and I have only the 'most firm plans to remain that way. My eye problemsdidn't come from John Barleycorn, it came from :Herschel Walker and company. After :watching the Cotton Bowl, the Sugar :Bowl and snatches of the Orange Bowl, :the old eyes just gave out on me and ;sent me on to bed with a bad case of the leaks. +++ I SPENT PART OF the New Year holiday week end doing just what I :wanted to do without being interrupted !by several things I was supposed or ex- ipected to do. Frenchie and I went to Panama Ci- 'ty and saw the movie, "Absence of :Malice". The movie was about a newspaper reporter who wrote a story ron a man which wasn't true. The reporter was suckered into writing the story by some characters [FBI-type] who wanted to pressure the victim of the story. It was an interesting movie and one which might add one more lesson to my ETAOI ' repertoire of what to look out for in the future. Friday afternoon, Frenchie served up a heaping portion of blackeye peas and hog jowl. She felt it was necessary to serve up a large helping since we would probably need all the help even a superstition could give us in the year to come. New Year's Eve the Channel 7 news team was in town, filming different per- sons and getting their reaction to what they felt the new year would bring to Port St. Joe. When they came to me, I was optimistic and I helped bolster this optimism with the helping of blackeye peas, hog jowl and cornbread Friday. You can't leave anything to chance. One ought to cover all bases in a situa- tion like this. WE'RE IN TROUBLE here in Port St. Joe. One of our perennial problems here in Port St. Joe is a problem with dogs- dogs nobody seems to own or care about They sometimes get to be a nuisance around town, until a cam- paign is launched to lessen their number. Beginning on January 25, we will be into the Year of the Dog. I have talked to several in the past years who have felt each of those par- ticular years were the collective and specific "Year of the Dog" since they seemed to have the run of the place. What's to make this official Year of the Dog any different? SIn the official Year of the Dog, the zodiac signs of the lunar calendar point to the dog, but I don't know if it will help people any or not. Those people in and around Port St. Joe and the nation who are out of work already knew it was the Year of the Dog, even before it was officially an- nounced. I heard one of them say just the other day, "It's going to be a dog eat dog situation here for a while until the economy gets in better shape." There are societies who consider a dog a delicacy. If things in the economy don't get a bit brighter, quick, there might be others who will try this dish. I can't see where it would be a very good year for dogs unless you are con- sidering them as wine, and the Year of the Dog would translate that dogs taste better this year than last. +++ ENOUGH OF THAT. I once worked with a young southern lady whose favorite expletive was, "You dog you!" She wasn't particularly aiming this word of wisdom at me. She used the phrase in a shotgun fashion, aiming it at everyone. I happened to think about this the other day when the papers were print- ing the story about a Mr. Vigliotto, who was apprehended in Panama City. Mr. Vigliotto had been accused of wedding 83 women and bilking them of their money and possessions. Using the southern lady's ex- pletive, "You dog you!" to apply to Mr. Vigliotto, it definitely won't be his year, dog or not. He has problems. Even if he hadn't been caught, he would have 'problems marrying 83 women! That could lead to having to lead the dog's life! +++ WHETHER IT WINDS up being the Year of the Dog, the cat, the lion, the boar, or whatever, we have tip-toed into 1982 hoping not to upset an already shaky apple cart. With a little care we might make it all through the year in reasonably good condition and be allow- ed to eat the apples in the cart rather than having to sell them to make ends meet.

FmHIIA Relaxes .Rules for Buyers The U.S. Department of Agriculture has changed its regulations to make it possible for more people to get single- family home loans through USDA's Farmers Home Ad- ministration. Charles W. Shuman, ad- ministrator of the USDA rural credit agency, said the revised rules change the income eligibility criteria, permit funds for approved solar heating, and make numerous changes to clarify and simplify operation of the agen- cy's single-family housing programs. The Farmer's Home Ad- ministration has a wide range of housing programs, in- cluding loans for single-family homes, housing repair and rehabilitation loans, rural ren- tal housing, farm labor hous- ing, and, self-help housing loans. Before the new regulations were implemented, they were reviewed and revised exten- sively, Shuman said. One of the major changes is the elimination of a single, na- tionwide income eligibility level. Previously, only families with incomes below $15,600 were considered eligi- ble for Farmers Home-hous- ing loans, except in Alaska and Hawaii. Income ceilings now vary by economic areas and are based on a percentage of the area median income. Low income is defined as 80 percent of the area median income. Applicants who qualify for moderate-income loans will pay interest rates prevailing when the loan is closed. The current interest rate charged by Farmers Home is 13.25 per- cent. For those with incomes at or below 80 percent of the area median income level, the agency provides "interest credits," which reduce the amount of interest the bor- rower pays, sometimes to as low as one percent. Using data developed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Farmers Home Administra- tion now sets income eligibili- ty limits in more than 500 economic areas throughout the nation.

After the fund builds up large enough to retire the remaining bonds, the City will have the option of excusing the other two members of the tripartite group using the plant, with the City taking over all responsibility for the plant and its financial pro- gram. At no time will the invest- ment be allowed to be reduced below $3 million, guaranteeing a substantial source of inter- est money for repairs and renovation to the plant. ENGINEERS The Commission took appli- cations Tuesday from seven engineering firms, seeking the job of designing and oversee- ing some $2 million in renova- tions which must be done at the plant during the next three years at the direction of the Department of Environmental Regulation of the State of Florida. inued From Page 1) The applications will be reviewed by a committee, three firms selected from the applications, and personal interviews held with the three firms judged to be top pros-, pects in order to make the final selection. The final selection is ex- pected to be made within the next two or three weeks. OTHER BUSINESS In other business matters Tuesday, the Commission: -Rejected all bids to re- paint the Dewatering building at the WWP and issue another call for bids in the spring. -Agreed to allow Gulf Cable TV to stop traffic in the alley behind St. Joseph Tele- phone and Telegraph building and on Long Avenue for up to five days to allow for removal of an antenna tower now standing behind the telephone company building.. -Instructed the Police De- partment to closely monitor trucks speeding through the city on Highway 98. -Accepted a bid of $1.093 per gallon from Chevron for gasoline supplies furnished the City. -Agreed to take a look at a street light request for the east end of 20th Street.

The weather stopped work on the outside paving around the school, causing the delay in moving in. b .',have c rpet in the new buil..ng, and walking over muddy clay into a carpeted building just doesn't make good sense, when we can wait a week or two", Wilder said. All supplies and furniture are on the scene and most of the preparation for paving has already been done. "If we get a few days good weather, we can get through and be in the building in a matter of days",- Wilder said. If things go as planned, four classes will begin moving into the building this week. These classes are currently being' conducted in temporary loca- tions. The remainder, classes kindergarten through six will move in as soon as the paving is completed. The' new $1 million school plant contains 16 classrooms and a lunchroom complex.

If you are an aficionado of those large, beautiful avocados from Florida, get ready to enjoy them. The season for Florida avocados is beginning and plentiful supplies are expected to be available in our markets 'through January. And if you :have never tried them, there *is no better time than now. Avocados from Florida have special qualities that make them different from other commercially grown :fruit. The varieties that flourish in Florida grow nearly twice the size of other avocados. Because of their bigger size they make very attractive and deliciously edible "showboats" for serv- ing main dish salads and meaty fillings, both hot and cold. They're also terrific serving containers for dips like guacamole. Another special quality of Florida avocados is that they are lower in calories than other avocados. So, if you are a calorie watcher, you'll find avocados from Florida Scan add important variety to the diet as well as pretty col- or to make meals look even more appetizing.. - But the very best part of an avocado is its wonderful, buttery-smooth, nutty flavor.

Shrimp Lasagna exemplifies the versatility of this popular shellfish. Though the recipe requires only 3/4 pound of shrimp, it will provide 6 servings, proving that it can be easi- ly included in even very moderate budgets. Medium shrimp, 31 to 35 count per pound, is recommended for best value. Shrimp provides high quality nutrition at a minimum of calories, which is another holiday plus. This delightful recipe features typically Italian seasonings and includes generous amounts of mozzarella, Parmesan, and cottage cheeses. It requires only 35 minutes baking time and can even, be' baked ahead of time for convenience.': SHRIMP LASAGNA 3/4 pound cooked, peeled, 1 teaspoon salt and deveined shrimp, 1 teaspoon sugar fresh or frozen 1/4 teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons margarine or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder butter 1/2 pound lasagna noodles 3/4 cup chopped onion 1/4 cup sliced pitted black 1 large clove garlic, minced olives 2 cans (8-ounces each) toma- 2 cups shredded mozzarella to sauce cheese 1 cante (6-once) tomato 1 pint large curd cottage 1/2 cup water cheese, drained 3 teaspoons basil 3 tablespoons grated Parme- 2 teaspoons oregano san cheese Thaw shrimp if frozen.

As of December 17, 1981, 2,918 persons have been killed on Florida's streets and high- ways since January 1, 1981. This is 39 more than were killed in all of 1980. The present trend, about eight percent above the same period of 1980, may put the 1981 death total well over 3,000 and will be an all-time high fbr Florida. Colonel Eldrige Beach said, "It is a shame that traffic deaths do not draw the atten- tion that more violent deaths such as murder get. If-it could - be said that cities the size of Safety Harbor or Wauchula had all of their citizens killed, it would probably make more of an impact." "One large city received nationwide attention because of almost 600 murders com- mitted, but five times that many will have died on Florida's highways this year. All premature deaths, regard- less of cause are tragic. Primarily because most of them are brought on by mankind and could have been prevented." '.'Traffic deaths are not senses and drive more care- usually premeditated and fully to help reduce the there is always hope that -terrible slaughter on oul high- motorists will come to their ways," concluded Beach.

The wonderful food and the kind people who stayed at our sides will never be forgotten. o The strength and fellowship of the church was a special blessing. Rev. Johnie McCur- dy, Rev. Jimmie Spikes, and Rev. Richard Holmes sup- ported us with compassion and love, and we are forever indebted to them and their Master. During his final moments, the determined efforts by the doctors, the hospital staff and the ambulance squad were without equal. He knew and we all know how very hard they tried, and we appreciate it so much. e Comforter Funeral Home Earned our respect and q gratitude for their dignity and diligence. Our hearts went out to them and to the pallbearers and friends who' stood in the cold, drizzling rain. s Our loss was easier to bear because we learned of how his o warm and friendly heart had visited joy to so many lives. We believe that he would be proud of the tribute paid by so many. For him, and from all of his.family, thank you for that.

JAN. 7. 1992 PAGE TEN 2t 12-31 EXTENSION NOTES: Proper Planting Care Gets Good Results By Roy Lee Carter County Extension Director Plantings properly incor- porated into an overall design create a landscape that is both beautiful and functional. If care is taken to properly prepare the. soil and transplant the shrub or tree it can. grow into a well shaped, healthy plant. However, if preparation is careless and improperly done the plant can become poorly shaped, weak and may eventually die. My information for this article was provided by Extension Urban Horticulturist Dr. Robert J. Black. Container grown plants are readily available in Florida. These plants can be planted anytime of the year provided proper moisture levels are maintained. Plants grown in containers too long become "root bound". This condition can be treated by cutting or breaking up the root mass dur- ing planting. The following are guidelines for planting container grown plants: Dig the hole one foot wider and six inches deeper than the container-root mass. Mix the soil from the hole with an organic amendment, such as peat, compost or muck. Amendments should not ex- ceed % of the soil volume. Backfill the hole with enough amended soil that the plant will sit in the hole at the same level itwas growing in the con- tainer. Firm the soil to pre- vent settling. Gently place the plant straight in the hole and fill in around the ball with amended soil. Water thoroughly while planting to remove air pockets. Do not mound the soil hear the stem of the plant. Form a saucer- like basin around each plant four to six inches high and two to three feet from the plant base to facilitate watering. Mulch with organic materials to reduce soil, temperature fluctuation and conserve moisture. Planting balled and burlap- ped plants is similar to plan- .ting container- plants.- Care should be taken not to disturb the soil ball, as this would severely damage the root system. Removal of the * burlap before planting is not i necessary, but generally i plastic coverings, should be f removed after setting the plant in the hole. Loosen the burlap from the top of the soil ball and cover with amended soil. Remove any nylon twine f tied around the plant stem. Nylon twine does not rot and will eventually girdle the stem. Generally, the procedures for planting ball and burlap- ped plants are suitable for bare-root palms. Palms should be planted during the warm rainy months for op- timum success. They should be planted at least as deep as they grew in the nursery and watered frequently when grown in well-drained soils. Few bare-root plants are planted in Florida. Bare-root materials are available only during the late fall, winter and early spring. Follow the steps below when planting bare-root plants: Protect plants from drying. Keep roots moist and plants in shade prior to planting. Dig the hole one foot wider than the root spread and six inches deeper than the root system. Roots crowded into a small hole will restrict plant growth. Inspect the root system and cut off roots that are broken or damaged. Amend soil with organic materials such as peat compost or muck. Amendments should not ex- ceed "i of the soil volume. Make a cone-shaped mound of amended soil in the bottom of the planting hole. Place the plant on the mound and spread the roots to their natural posi- tion. Set the plant upright and at the same depth it was grown in the nursery. Hold the plant upright and fill the hole half to two-thirds full of amended soil. Work the soil around the roots to eliminate air pockets. Settle the soil around the roots with water before filling the re- mainder of the hole.T Form ,a. saucer-like basin -around. tle plant to aid in watering. Pro- .vide a two to three inch mulch in the saucer-like basin. The success of planting depends greatly on good watering practices. Adjust the watering schedule to provide moist but not saturated condi- tions until establishment. Water the plants "as needed" thereafter. One to two inches of water per week from rain or irrigation is usually sufficient. Sandy soil may require two in- ches of water each week while heavier. soils may need less than one inch each week. Established plants in the landscape require deep water- ing to wet the soil down to the root ball. Frequent light watering of established plants is undesirable. Light watering *encourages the development of a shallow root system. Water only as fast as the soil can absorb the water..
