Show MILLAR COUNT? CHRONICLE " U.S. Homes To Share Beauty Delta, Utah, Thurs., Oct. H, 195 of Washington's Prized Tree A ld tree once owned and prized by George Washington has produced 45,000 feet of handsomely figured veneers and lumber that ultimately will grace the interiors of many American homes, of-- i fices and public buildings in the form of wall paneling and furni-ture. The giant walnut tree, har-vested recently by Hartzell In-dustries of Piqua, O., a member of The Veneer Association, served as si wilderness landmark to explorers and pioneers. Be-cause the tree already was over mature, cutting became neces-sary to prevent further disinte-gration. Towering 70 feet, the majestic hardwood tree had a crown spread greater than its height. Its trunk measured 50 inches in diameter, exclusive of bark, five feet above the ground. Hardwood face veneers, used in wall paneling, television and radio cabinets and high quality furniture for the home, bring out the natural beauty of the wood. Time only serves to mellow and enrich the beauty of the veneer surfaces of plywood wall panel-ing which creates an atmosphere of warmth and hospitality in the "home. Ninety percent of all wood furniture manufactured today is Of veneer and plywood construc-tion because of its beauty, serv-iceability and ease of mainte-nance. Growth rings attested that Washington's tree had been stand-ing for more than three cen-tury :n a West Virginia timber tra lown in Colonial times as ocatalico Survey of w' shington became sole 0 : diary mentions both 1 d the tree. A wilderness landmark to ex-plorers and pioneers, this tree once was the prop-erty of George Washington. Har-vested recently, its beauty has been preserved in the form of ex-quisite hardwood face veneers used in making high quality fur-niture and wall paneling. Stanford W. Stubbs, of the Delta high school faculty, took the pic-ture of the crowd at "Mirthquake" Deseret stake event, that was us-ed in the Chronicle of last week. He should have had a credit line with the picture, but in the flurry of going to press it was omitted. Albert Skidmore was released from the Delta hospital Tuesday to return home. He had been a patient there for two weeks with pneumonia. .Deer ' Hunters ' MENS' BROWN JERSEY GLOVES 3 Pair lor $1.00 MENS' HUNTING CAPS, Reversible 9Scandup HEAVY RED SWEAT SHIRTS $1.98 MENS ALL WOOL HUNTING SOCKS - 49c LADIES' 8 Ounce SANFORIZED BLUE DENIUM JEANS $2.49 MFNS?

Under the 1951 license law passed by the State legislature last winter, a junior must be four-teen years of age before he can legaly hunt game birds. At that age he pays $3.00 and may hunt then only when accompanied by someone in majority of years, 21 or older. When a junior reaches sixteen years of age, he may purchase a big game license as well. The above is a departure from the old license law under which a junior of twelve could hunt in company of someone in age of majority. Fishing Season Was Successful Sunday, October 7, saw the gen-eral closing of Utah's most suc-cessful fishing season in recent years. The Department continues to be the recipient of personal vis-its and letters from sportsmen and sportsmen's groups commending this improvement. The semi-ari- d climate of the State will always limit the State water where game fish thrive. How ever, new fisheries methods and experiments hold promise for con-tinued production to maintain the best possible return to the fisher-man's creel in the years ahead. Fall, winter and early spring plan-tings are proving highly successful in many waters. This type plant-ing will be further pursued. The raising of fish in natural waters for transplanting to other streams and lakes is as yet an experimental program. Success of this experment will mean "wild" fish in great numbers for trans-planting at a minumum cost of sportsmen's dolars. As said, experi-ment goes into its second year, it holds high promise of success. More frequent segregation of hatchery fish 'for planting is prov-ing successful in maturing these fish for earlier planting. This year's experiment in the feeding of ground chub may prove to serve a dual purpose. This trash fish has been severely detrimental to may of the State's better trout waters. As a fish food, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Ashby, North Tract residents years ago, now of Long Beach, Cal., arrived in Delta Wednesday for a visit with their son, Clifford Ashby, and family. They spent Tuesday night in Ced-ar City visiting with their old neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred |
