UNITED NATI()NAL REAL ;TATE
JONSERED
The West Virginia Division of For-
estry will issue permits to cut fire-
wood on the Greenbrier State For-
est. The Firewood cutting area is lo-
cated along the county road on the
top of Kate's Mountain within the
sate forest boundaries. The trees
available for cutting as firewood are
any trees marked with orange paint
and any down or uprooted trees.
Signs will be posted to indicate the
cutting area.
Firewood cutting will be permitted
from 8:30 a.m. on Monday, February
26 to 4:30 p.m. on Friday, March 2.
The firewood is free, but a permit is
required before any wood is cut.
Permits may be obtained from the
Greenbrier State Forest office lo-
cated on Harts Run from 8:30 a.m.
to 4:30 p.m. on February 26 to
March 2. Permits will be issued on a
first com~-first served basis. There
is a limit of 5 pickup truck loads or
equivalent per individual or house-
hold. The firewood, is for personal
use only and may not be sold.
When cutting the firewood, ex-
treme care should be d~ed when
felling trees to prevent personal in-
jury or damage to vehicles. Large or
dead trees should only be felled by
expert cutters. Any trees which fall
across the road must be immedi-
ately cleared to allow passage of
vehicles. There are many uprooted
trees blown over by Hurricane Hugo
which have lodged in other trees.
These trees should only be cut by
expert cutters as they can be very
dangerous and could result in se-
vere personal injury if improperly
cut. Firewood cutters with average
capabilities should restrict their cut-
ting to standing trees 10 inches or
tess in diameter and trees fully on
the ground. People with a low level
of firewood cutting experience
should restrict their cutting only to
trees fully on the ground.
Additional information concerning
the firewood cutting may be ob-
tained by contacting Walter
Jackson, Service Forester or
George Clarkson, Forest Ranger at
647-7426.

COUNTRY MAGIC
There is a magical quality about country liv-
ing. A magic born of freedom, purity,
beauty, life itself. Freedom from too many
restrictions and tensions, where it's pos-
sible to go outdoors with out the constant
feeling of being watched. Purity of air so
vibrant it can uplift the spirit. Beauty of the
vast array of ever changing light, colors,
and shapes of nature. Anyone who has ex-
perienced the bursting forth of life in spring,
has no doubt that there is magic in the

Now we can move on to antisep-
tic herbs. We all know antiseptics
are agents that kill germs. In herbal
language the intent and action is a
little more than the "hype" of a televi-'
sign commercial on cleanliness.
Antiseptic herbs act as agents for
destroying or inhibiting pathogenic
or putrefactive bacteria. In common
language this means we finally got
the bad guys.
The prefix patho always indicates
disease or suffering. Genesis, as in
the first book of the Bible, means
beginning. Genic is derived from
genesis in shortened form, meaning
the potential is there. Therefore,
pathogenic means capable of caus-
ing diseases. The bad guy is on the
scene; what will we do about him?
Putrefactive means bring about
putrifaction. In a way we all know
what this means -- something just
smells bad. Instinct tells us some-
thing must be wrong -- out of order.
All of the above is true. Our sense of
smell does tell us that something of
organic matter is decomposing,
breaking down to basic parts, bacte-
ria invade.
Bacteria are free-loaders. Some-
one is taking a free ride on OUR
back and just waiting for a weak-
ness to occur. What actually is hap-
pening, happens all of the time. We
can ignore the bacteria or we let
them get to us. Obviously when we
ignore their presence there is no
problem because we do not allow
them to be. They are just there en-
joying their free ride. Problems oc-
cur when we allow them to exist.
This happens when we don't take
proper care of ourselves. The weak-
est part of our bodies, our "Achilles
heel," is the most susceptible. Prime
time TV is on the scene and cam-
eras are ready. The very rested
freeloader parasites are totally pre-
pared to take advantage of this
weak situation. They invade. Our
