County Extension Agent-AG
Every now and again I am asked,
what does a County Extension
Agent do? Extension Agent's are
the county based staff of the Texas
Agricultural Extension Service
(TAEX). Our services are suppor-
ted by administrative staff at
district offices and our state office
which is located at Texas A&M
University. We also receive support
from area and state specialists who
are experts in various commodity
and subject matter areas.
We have many roles to fill, not the
least of which is to give clients
acess to the expert knowledge
needed in very specific circum-
stances,, without requiring the
client to achieve the degree of un-
derstanding necessary to accom-
plish it alone.
Agricultural producers for the
most part today are highly
educated and very knowledgeable
individuals. Unfortunately most en-
^pppppr
NANCY LARGENT, daughter of
Johnny Largent of Neches, will
receive her Master of Education
degree from Stephen F. Austin
State University at 10 a.m. Satur-
day, Aug. 16. Miss Largent is em-
ployed by Rusk Independent School
District as a teacher for Early
Childhood Special Education. She is
an active member of Eastside Bap
tist Church and enjoys writing
theRuitk Folk column for The
Cherokeean. She invites all of her
friends and family to share her joy
as she receives her degree.

terprlses are so complex, that if we
took time out to learn everything
about all aspects of production, we
would be too old to farm.
Take for example a typical cow-
calf operation in East Texas.
Though it may seem simple,
production decisions would
typically involve such areas as
genetics, reproduction, nutrition,
herd health, marketing, economics,
forage varieties, soil fertility, and
weed control (herbicides) just to
name a few.
Though a producer may be as
knowledgeable in one of more of
these areas, production circum-
stances today demand the most ef-
ficient operation possible. That
means he needs expert advise in all
areas.
That is where the County Exten-
sion Agent comes in. We support
producers by giving them access to
expert knowledge in areas where
they need it.
In addition to individual service,
the TAEX also assumes respon-
sibility for educational programs
that benefit all producers. These
programs reflect new research and
how it relates to production, as well
as reviewing information that has
been available for many years.
These services are available in
all areas of agriculture including
cattle, dairy, timber, fish produc-
tion, and Christmas trees, just to
name a few.
Vegetable and fruit production,
greenhouses, and home garden and
landscapes are a few examples of
the Horticultural topics covered.
The extension service also
provides information and assistan-
ce in Home Economics and the 4-H
program.
For more information on how we
can assist you, contact your nearest
County Extension Office.
Crisis Center Is Topic
For Rotary Club Program
The Rev. Mike O'Bannion, pastor
of Grace Fellowship Church, was
guest speaker at the Rotary Club
luncheon Wednesday noon. He was
introduced by the Rev. Dr. Hal Mc-
Neill, program chairman.
The Crisis Center of Cherokee
County Inc. was the topic of Pastor
O'Bannion's talk. He explained that
the center is not necessarily a chur-
ch project. It is a project of people
who care from all denominations.
O'Bannion said the center will be an
agency to help people who are rape
victims, battered women, child
abuse victims and those with
alcohol and drug related problems.
A crisis hotline is to begin this
month. Telephone counselors are
being trained according to the
church pastor. Tommy Meador is
president of the center and serves
as director along with Lee Ever-
man.
O'Bannion encouraged those who
are interested in the project to call
the church office for additional in-
formation. The number is 683-6550
L VN School At TJC
Still Has Fall Openings
Tyler Junior College's Vocational
Nursing Education is a 12-month
program that teaches students to
become valuable members of the
health care team who will share in
the prevention of illness and care of
the sick, Dee Miller, instruc-
tor/coordinator of vocational nur-
sing, said.
Students completing the program
will receive a certificate of
proficiency and after successful
completion of the state boards will
become a Licensed Vocational Nur-
se (LVN).
Openings in the Vocational Nur-
sing Education Program are still
available for the fall semester at
TJC.
The vocational nursing program
insures the provision of an
educational plan that will enable
students to acquire the knowledge,
skills and abilities to become nur-
ses.
"Vocational nursing is an essen-
tial and integral compenent of the
nursing system in that it fills nur-
sing needs unanswered by either
registered nurses or nurses aides,"
Miller said.
Job opportunities for the LVN in-
clude acute care facilities, long
term care nursing, doctors' offices,
industrial nursing and emergency
clinics and more, she said.
Vocational nurses are prepared
to function under the legal
framework specified by the Texas
State Board of Nurse Examiners.

AS A MEMBER OF LOUISIANA-PACIFIC'S
TREE ENTERPRISE FAMILY
YOU BENEFIT BY HAVING:
1. Timber Management
A sound timber management program can reduce the probability and severity of SPB attack.
2. Early Detection of SPB Attack
L-P foresters now make periodic aerial reconnaissance flights over Tree Enterprise members
forestland.
3. Control and Salvage Operations
As harvesting on SPB control operations permit, L-P crews and mill capacity will be utilized to aid Tree
Enterprise members with SPB infestations on a priority basis over non-member landowners.
If you own 40 acres or more of timberland and wish to discuss in detail the benefits of our Tree Enterprise
program contact:
