PAGE 8IX-THE CHEROKEEAN OF RUSK. TEXAS. THURSDAY. JANUARY 15.1981
Rancher's Names
Needed; Deadline
Extension Given
Deadline for submitting
names for area brucellosis
committees has been ex-
tended until Jan. 15. John
Armstrong of Kingsville,
chairman of the Texas
Animal Health Com-
mission, announced today.
Armstrong said about 500
names had been submitted
as of the Jan. 5 deadline.
"We are continuing to get
more inquires and interest
from Texas' cowmen, so
we decided to lengthen the
time in which to present
nominations," he ex-
plained.
Committees made up of
cattle producers from 15
areas of the TAHC will be
formed from names of-
fered. "Individuals as well
as livestock groups are
requested to make
suggestions," Armstrong
said.
The names can be given
to any of the 15 area TAHC
officer or the Texas Animal
Health Commission, Box
12966, Austin, TX 78711.
Duties of the committee
members will be to advise
and consult with TAHC
commissioners relating to
the Texas Brucellosis
program. Other com-
missioners of the TAHC are
Bob Baros, Gonzales; Dr.
Ben Hopson, Laredo; C.E
Knolle, Sandia; Charles
Koontz, Olton; T. Euel
Liner, Lubbock; Mort Mer-
tz, Eldorado; Jimmy
Owen, Tyler ; and James D.
Sartwelle Sr., Sealy. Dr.
John Holcombe is
executive director.
"We are already indeb-
ted to cattlemen and
representatives of the en-
tire cattle industry in for-
mulating the Texas
brucellosis plan. Revised
regulations went into effect
in July, 1960. We want to
continue to get the input of
the cattle industry so that
we can improve the Texas
plan, making it affordable
and practical and. yet
epidemiologically sound,"
Armstrong added.

Apply Dormant Spray To
Fruit Trees Now
San Jose Scale, an insect
that attacks apples,
peaches, plums and pears,
can be controlled by a
dormant spray. It's a good
idea to add a fungicide to
the spray to help control
disease such as leaf curl at
this time. Homeowners
should take advantage of
these warmer sunshiney
January days to spray
their fruit trees. Best
results are achieved when
the temperature is between
40 and 70 degrees F.
...from Washington
U.S. Rep. Sam B.Hall Jr.
hap sent the following
telegram to President
Jimm Carter, President-
elect Ronald Reagan, U.S.
Senators Lloyd Bentsen
and John Tower of Texas
and Texas Governor
William P. Clements:
"Local officials in East
Texas have been informed
that they must prepare for
a resettlement of some
2,000 Cuban refugees into
East Texas, the area that I
represent in Congress. I am
adamantly opposed to such
a resettlement. In
numerous discussions with
public officials and com-
munity leaders throughout
the targeted area for
resettlement, I find total
support for my position. I
am informed that little, if
any, coordination and
planning from federal of-
ficials and humane
organizations have gone in-
to basic problems
associated with jobs,
housing, socipl services
and law enforcement for
the refugees. Furthermore,
I have been informed that

those refugees left at Fort
Chaffe are undesirable and
are not suitable for
relocation in East Texas.
The proposal is ill
conceived and ill-timed.
For these reasons, I im-
plore you to oppose such a
resettlement.
...from Austin
A bill which would in-
clude substitute teachers in
the "reasonable assuran-
ce" provision of existing
unemployment law has
been prefiled by State
Senator Roy Blake of
Nacogdoches.
Senate Bill 112, which is a
companion bill to House
Anxiety does not empty
i tomorrow of its worries 1
and sorrows; it only em-
pties today of its strengths.
People can be divided'
into three groups: those
who make things happen,
those who watch things
i happen and those who
) wonder what happened.
-John W. Newbern
Bill 138, will provide that
persons listed on a roster of
substitute teachers that
has been approved for use
during the school year will
not be eligible for unem-
ployment benefits.
Though this roster in it-
self does not guarantee any
specified days of em-
ployment, it does constitute
"reasonable assurance"
that the substitute teacher
will be employed.
f • Blade is also sponsoring
.a bill which denies benefits
to persons who voluntarily
quit their jobs without good
cause or who are
discharged from their jobs
for misconduct.
"Neither of the unem-
ployment bills will affect
claims of persons who are
unemployed through no
fault of their own," Senator
Blake said, "but if passed,
they (the bills) will both go
a long way toward
relieving the financial
losaes that are suffered by
school districts for no good
reason."
The other bill which has
been prefiled by Senator
Blake is Senate Bill 2.

There Is a lost fortune
In the walls, floors and celling
of this home.
At first glance, it looks like a lot of homes in this
area, maybe yours.
But inside the walls, under the floors and
above the ceiling there's another story.
This home is poorly insulated. And because
of that, the people who live here are losing a
fortune.
10% of the energy we use goes for lighting.
cooking and running small appliances. 20% for
heating water. And 70% f
o for air conditioning and
So!Tt's easy to see why if your home is poorly
insulated, your energy, as well as your utility
bills, can go right through the roof.
On the other hand, with proper insulation, you
can reduce the load on your cooling and heating
system by as much as 20% to 30%. And it's not
hard to figure out what effect that can have on
your utility bills.
Now, the question arises of how much insula-
tion you need.
Three factors affect that. The way your home
is built How much insulation you already have.
And the climatic conditions of the area where
youNve.
A recent national survey has broken the coun-
try down into six climatic regions and estab-
lished R values for each of them.
BATTSO* BLANKETS
The R-values or numbers which you will see
stamped on the insulation are the energy
efficiency ratings.
The "R" stands for resistance to winter heat
loss and summer heat gain.
The accompanying number signifies the in-
sulating capability. Tne higher the number the
more effective the insulation.
So, the guidelines we are about to give you
encompass all of SESCO's operating area.
Your ceilings should have a rating of R-28.
The walls, R-19. And floors with crawl
space, R-11.
The following chart shows you what that
means in terms of the type of insulation
material used
So, now that you have some idea about what
your home needs, wo suggest that you get in
touch with a reputable insulation dealer, the
local building inspector or the county agent.
They can answer any further questions and
help you determine exactly how much additional
insulation your home should have.
But the most important thing is to get in touch
with them right awav The more time you waste,
the more energy you waste.
