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

Asbestos Material Removed


from Elementary Schools


The Gulf County School
Board wa( informed at their
regular meeting Tuesday that
all the asbestos material had
:bpn removed from Elemen-
tary Schools in the county
during the Christmas holi-
days. 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

Homestead Exemption Notices Going Into The Mail


10% ofHomeowners Must File New Application to Test Entitlement


The Homestead exemption
has never been worth more
than it is this year.
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.

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.

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.

pent, fellows, and begin doing
what you promised to do when

can help turn this country

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

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.

.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.

The Concern Christian
Society will hold their regular

day, January 9, at 4:00 P.M.

account.
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

pected to be made within the
next two or three weeks.

MOVING
The Board delayed moving
into the new Wewahitchka
Elementary School over the,
Christmas holidays because of
the inclement weather during
this time.
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.
SET POLICY
In policy matters Tuesday,
the Board attempted to set up
a policy to provide for the:
suspension and expulsion of
handicapped children who-
cause problems in the system;
"Present state law makes this
almost impossible to do at the
present time, no matter how
disruptive the child may be",-
Wilder said. :'

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. The mellow taste of

Shrimp Takes On An Italian Accent
What better way to
entertain friends or to treat the family than to introduce
shrimp one of the all-time best-loved foods in an old-
time favorite such as lasagna.
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

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. Set aside 12 shrimp for garnishing.
Cut remaining shrimp into pieces 1/2-inch long. Melt

noodles, mozzarella and cottage cheese, and sauce into a
2-quart shallow baking dish. Repeat 2 times. Garnish top with
reserved shrimp and olives. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

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.

Card of Thanks


Our special feelings of
gratitude are extended to
everyone who shared with us
the recent loss of our loved
one, L. J. "Red" Herring. The
tremendous outpouring of love
and respect has helped in
relieving our sorrow.
All of the cards, flowers,
calls and contributions served
to uplift our family. 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.
Finally, to all of the
neighboring families who also
suffered losses during the
Christmas Season, we extend
our sincerest understanding
and deepest sympathy.
Thank you and God bless
you all,
The Family of L. J. "Red"
Herring

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..
