In Memoriam.

God giveth and God taketh away.
So on June 9 at 1880 he sent his
death angel into the home of Mr..
Sam McGowen at Ebenezer and
claimed his brother, George Gibbs
McGowen, age SO years, who linger-
ed about five months, suffering very
much. All that friends and relatives
could do to comfort, ease and help
him were done, but God knew best
and he alone could ease his pains
He was laid to rest June 10 in the
Ebenezer Cemetery. Rev. r. E.
White made a pretty talk. Uncle
George often said he was prepared,
ready and willing to go. He never
complained or fretted but was SO
patient during all his suffering. He
always had smile and a kind word
for everyone. He leaves only one
brother, Mr.. Sam McGowen, with
whom he has made his homo for
many, many years. No sister, moth
er or father; they have all gone on
before, so we extend to this only
brother and Mrs. Sam McGowen, who
was sister in love and kindness to
him, and his ephew and three
nieces who had learned to love him
most as father, our heartfelt SYM
pathy and point them to the only
one-JesuC-who can heal their
broken hearts, comfort and cheer
when the dark clouds hover near.
So an angel came and lowered near
couch of pain and finding there
sould unstained by sin, clothed it
with Gods love and grace; then up
ward to the home above where weary
feet find everlasting rest, and where
pain is forever gone, where tears are
never shed. God loved Uncle George
for the noble life he lived, and called
him to his home just over there. Oh
brother, newphew, and nieces, weep
rot, fer well we know hiS soul is
blessed and death is but the leads
at last unto the mansions of eternal
rest.
One by one the Lord doth call us,
AS our labor here is done,
And in answer to the summons
One we loved from us is gone.
He is free from care and sorrow,
And is numbered with the dead;
But we know that soon wo'll meet
him
Where no tears are ever shed.
One Who Loved Him Dearly.

OWNERS OF BLACK WALNUT
Information From Forest Service, U
S. Department of Agriculture.

Firms having contracts with the
Government to furnish black walnut
for gunstocks and airplane propellers
all buy logs in carload lots and most
of them buy standing timber of mer-
charitable amounts. These afford the
best markets for owners of walnut,
since small. sawmills are poorly
equipped and are very wasteful in
handling walnut.
Logs are wanted IL inches and
over in diameter at the small end
and 8, 10, IL, ETC., feet in length.
A few logs 10 inches in diameter
will be accepted in order to avoid
wasting useful parts of the tree.
Trees cutting less than 10-foot log
IL inches in diameter lose much in
scaling and should be cut sparingly
and only to fill out an order.
A carload of walnut logs usually
contains from four to six thousand
board feet. Since it is impracticable
to ship less than a carload of logs,
owners of smaller amounts of wal
nut should join with neighbors in
making cooperative shipments.
Before starting to cut your wal
nut you should get specifications and
prices and have contract with one
of the firms filing Government or
ders. Prices for logs necessarily
vary widely as they are based upon
clearness and size of logs, particu-
larly diameter, and cost of transport
ing them to the manufacturing plant.
Sizes of logs sometimes run in three
diameter groups, namely: IL to Is
inches inclusive, 10 to 23 inches in
elusive, and "a inches and over. The
prices paid at loading points for rea-
sonably clear walnut logs that will
cut airplane propeller and gunstock
material have, in a number of cases,
averaged around $50 to 500 per
thousand board feet, higher or low
er, depending upon the average grade
of the logs. Walnut lumber suit
able for propellers, representing on
ly from 10 to 20 per cent of the
average mill cut is bringing from
$3.50 to $3.50 per thousand feet; gun
stock materials and common lumber
representing about 80 per cent of the
output bring mostly $50 to 1920 per
thousand board feet.
Gunstock blanks are cut from Sec
logs and certain parts of
the better logs. Airplane propellers
demand the very best grades Of clear
walnut lumber one inch thick and
mostly IL or IA inches wide by 81
