This project lucted once a year and very important because- us the chance to prop- early dispose of items that private citizens acquire that should not be disposed of with the typical trash. We all have a few in or around our home and -now is the time to get rid of the follow- ing items: Used oil, oil filters, gasoline, anti-freeze,. batteries (car. AA, C, 9V, etc.), fertilizers, pesticides, insecticides, poisons, household cleaners (ammonia, moth balls, turpentine,, brush cleaners, strippers, etc.), pool cleaners, paint thinners, paint and paint supplies, photographic. chemicals, aerosol cans,' flo- rescent lamps, computers and televisions. Keep in mind many automotive products contain toxic chemicals so if you do a lot of your own car maintenance check the labels of the products you use and see how they rec- ommend you dispose of them. Items such as battery acid,,car wax, engine cleaners, degreas- ers, radiator flushes and rust preventatives normally contain toxic substances and should be disposed of at these round ups. Some items may pose addir- tional dangers so if any product leaks please make sure you pack them in a larger container with' absorbent material, cat litter works great or there are many oil absorbent matenals available.

During its February meeting inGainesville, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) unanimously approved splitting the rivers into five segments with a water-level gauge on each part. Idle Speed/No Wake zones will be the rule for individual segments 'when water rises to specific levels, ranging from nine to 47 feet. The new rule goes into effect March 16, according to FWC officials. Idle Speed/No Wake means a vessel must proceed at a speed no greater than required to maintain steerageway and headway. At no time is any vessel required to proceed so slowly the operator is unable to maintain control over the vessel or any other vessel or object that it has under tow. Previously, one gauge in Branford caused those restrictions for the entire 160-mile system. When the Suwannee River reached 26 feet above sea level (three feet below flood stage) at the Branford gauge, the entire system from the U.S. 27 Bridge at Branford south to Fowlers Bluff and on the Santa Fe River from the U.S. 27 Bridge near High Springs south to the confluence of the Suwannee River came under the Idle Speed/No Wake restriction. This caused some areas to be at Idle Speed/No Wake when river conditions are, well below flood stage while other areas were well above flood stage with no restrictions in place. The regulations aim to prevent boaters from hitting submerged objects such as docks and stumps. Some property owners have asked for more stringent restrictions to prevent speeding boats from causing flooding and erosion. According to Maj. Paul Ouellette, of FWC's Boating and Waterways Section, "Although the FWC is sensitive to property owners on the river, our authority only allows us to regulate the waterway for boating safety purposes, not property protection." Annual spring rains routinely cause the Suwannee and Santa (Continued to Page Eighteen) B. Cind\ Jo Ayers As of TuesdaN. March 14. the Su~annee River Fair was in full swing.

Al - Cid: o Ar By Cindy Jo Ayers Streetwise By Lauren Rudd .Every investor dreams of finding Wall Street's Holy Grail, that fla\Ilss method fordeciding which stocks to buy and when. For many it has become an obsession, while for others a hopeless crusade Unfortunately, such a system does not exist. Ye't, there is one technique that I have not discussed in severall years that anyone can use. Employing this' method means that in a period of about 20 minutes you %will be able to decide what stocks to invest in. ;your total commission cost. if .you 'use a discount brokerage :house, should not exceed $50, anid you do not hae to look at your portfolio for a year. Developed by money manager Michael O'Higgins. the methodology is referred to as the Dow 5 theory and it \as originally described in his book "Beating the Do\.'" (Harper Collins Publishers. 1991). O'Higgins" strategy limits your selection of possible investment candidates to the 30 companies that make up the Do\w Jones industrial average. 'As O'Higgins points out. the Dow 30 companies are among .the most widely held. widely analyzed and widely publicized companies in the world. They may gain, lose. spin off. acquire. merge, rename themselves . reorganize, ,or even leave the, Dow. but in one form or another they are here to stay. The Dow 5 theory\ consists of selecting from the Do\%' 30, the five lowest priced stocks out of, the ten \ ith the highest dividend yield. You buy an equal dollar amount of each of these five comlpanies"~rid hold the shares for one year. On tle' anniversary of 'f "a P_ farSh :w ah in identify the five lowest priced' stocks out.of the ten with the highest 'yield and adjust your portfolio accordingly. Does the Dow 5 theory work every year? No, there were some years, such as 2005, when you will have an overall negative- return. Here 'are some annual; results. For the year 2004, the total return for the Dow 5 was 12.4 percent. The S&P 500 had a total return of 10.9 percent, Fidelity Magellan iFMNAGX.i 7.5 percent and the Vanguard Index 500 (VFINX) 10.7 percent. Rememlier that total return includes all dividends. For the period beginning with the year 2000 and running through 2004, the Dow 5 had an average annual total return of 6.8 percent, the S&P 500 -0.7 The Gilchrist County Solid Waste Department Announces Amnesty Days for Tires & Appliances The Gilchrist County Solid Waste Department will be collecting tires and the following appliances: washer, dryer, refrigerator, freezer, stove, free of charge March 20, 2006 through April 1, 2006.

Good food is so important to Southerners that our family members and friends who have gone on to be with theLord are often times remembered .by their skills in the kitchen. My late grandmother. [dell Beauchamp, doesn't have a.. grandchild who doesn't have: fond memories of her % wonderful chicken and dumplings. M\ husband John's mother. lMar ANers, made such a \ wonderful sour cream pound cake that our family now judges all pound cakes b\ the standard that Me- Ma set. From time to time we will taste a pound cake that's almost,, nearly or close to Me- Ma's cake. I remember years ago the anticipation of the special dishes w which were brought in- abundance to Dinner On The Grounds at First Baptist Church in Trenton. I did mi best to catch Mrs. Evel% n Brown coming through the fellowship hall doors with a large pot in her hand. You see. I knew without a doubt that pot was filled with her \er\ special cream style corn; Miss Evel\n made the best cream corn I've e\ er eaten. Fact was, eery thing Miss E\elyn made was good. I also remember surveying the dessert tables looking for Miss Lois Lord's Fresh Coconut Cake. Man. that cake would melt in Nour mouth. My o\ n mother, Doris Beauchamp who is aliie and \ell, in fact she is still quite spunkN. she is. known far and wide for the very best in 'canned goods. She is for- evermore putting up some food item. She picks fresh blackberries e ery summer and makes the eer\ best blackbern jelly I've e\er eaten. Recently she made orange marmalade and we were all pretty excited to ,recei e a jar. N'ti g' woul l'1 rnAe .'more than' to hbae .someoAe remember me for something I made that was really good one da%. My mother has made the following breads and .butter pickles for years, In fact when I percent, Fidelit: Magellan -2.5 percent and the Vanguard Index -0.8 percent. Last year the return on the Dow 5 was a -2.1 percent. As I said, things do not turn, out perfectly every year. The difficulty in 2005 was Pfizer; .whose--10.6 percent return hurt what could have been another stellar year. For the same period, the S&P had a total return of 4.9 percent. Fidelitr Magellan 6.4 percent and the Vanguard Index 4.8 percent: As of January 1 of this year, the Dow 5 consists of General Motors, AT&T, Verizon, Merck and Pfizer. As of March 3, that group of stocks had an average gain of 9.12 percent. For comparison purposes, the S&P 500 was up 3.12 percent, Fidelity Magellan 4.7 percent and the Vanguard Index 2.65 percent. There is no iron clad rule that says your year has to start on January 1. You can calculate a current Dow 5 list on any day. Remember, the purpose is to invest in some high yielding blue chip stocks that are currently out of favor and hold those stocks for a minimum of one year.

John Frazier MARCH19-25 7:30PMEACH NIGHT TRENTON CHURCH OF CHRIST 502 NE 7TH STREET, TRENTON You are invited to a GOSPEL MEETING beginning Sunday at the Trenton Church of Christ, 502 NE 7th ,Street, Trenton. The church is located next to the Medic-Ayers Rehabilitation Center. We have invited Dennis Tucker to preach a series of lessons from the word of God. Many will remember Dennis & Regina Tucker as they worked with the Trenton Church of Christ a number of years ago. A GOSPEL MEETING is a time of REVIVAL for those who enjoy an honest study of the Bible. Nothing is presented but the simple truth of what can be found in the pages of God's word. Can we understand the Bible together? Many feel that the Bible is hard to understand and the reason for different beliefs is the Bible is too difficult to read and comprehend. We challenge that thought in believing that honest people can come to agreement on what the Bible says. The apostle Paul wrote in Ephesians 3:3-4,."How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; as I wrote afore in few words, whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ The apostle shows the simple manner the word of God is revealed to man. He wrote down what was revealed and he then encouraged his listeners to read what he had written down. His conclusion was they could understand what he had written down. Our aim during this meeting or revival is to ask two things of you: (1) Bring your Bible and your family; (2) Open your Bible and study with us as we unfold the mind of God from His word. When you visit you will find a warm welcome and encouragement to study the word of God. Many churches today spend a lot of time entertaining the audience with concerts, plays and such like with little or no emphasis upon learning what the Bible teaches. We offer no bands or play or feast but only an honest study of the word of God. Have you hungered for the simple teaching of the Bible? Many people are finding the veneer of religion today unfulfilling as there is no Bible teaching. At every service of the Trenton Church of Christ, we open the Bible and study from it. We seek to learn more and more with each occasion of our gathering both public and private. You are hungering for the truth of God's word! We do not suppose to know all the answers but only the answers as we can find them together in the word of God. The wonderful power of God's message is that we study together and learn together and grow together in the grace and knowledge of the Lord (2 Peter 3:18). This GOSPEL MEETING is an opportunity for you to learn more about the Church of Christ at Trenton. We hold the truth of God as the foundation of what we do and why we do what we do. Bring your Bible, your family and your hunger to learn about God's word. You will be happily surprised at how refreshing it is to study the Bible once again. "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth" (Romans 1:16).

Through this sale our local chapter receives 50 percent, of every dollar you spend in the purchase of plants. Daylilies and Agapanthus are easy to care for and perform well in full sun to partial shade. This year the alumni has three different items for sale: Edges and Eyes Select Hybrids, which are un-named Metalloid .seedlings, have been specially' bred and selected to have an extremely high .percentage of eyes and edges. The parents of these hybrids are from the most cutting edge Cultivars, that produce these traits. Many have double edges and multi-layered eyes. The prices are less than 20, $5 each; 20-99, $4.50 each; and 100 or more, $4 each. Hybrid Daylilies, unnamed Tietaploid Seedlings, (which means not registered), are hybridized from the best and newest Cultivars. Many are better than Cultivars introduced just five years ago. Mixed in color, size, and form, they provide a splash of color at reasonable prices. Prices are . less than 20, $2.50 each; 20-99, $2.25 each; and 100 or more, $2 * each. Agapanthus (Lily of the Nile), are large size plants in five- gallon pots. Huge, eye level, globe shaped blooms range from light sky blue to deep purple. The plants are $15 each.

Is the Cause Hopeless? .... .. NO. Forty years ago, motorists regularly tossed garbage out their car window, people smoked in grocery ,stores, and billboards littered every interstate highway. Thanks to a generation of activists, all this has changed. . Forty years ago, most people laughed at the notion that second hand smoke was dangerous. Now it's an accepted fact, and virtually every state and locality has restrictions on smoking in public. You can take action.

Disclosure means, that a Sellr of Real properly must 'disclose all facts which affect the value of that property to potential Buyers. In addition Reajlors have the same legal requirement of disclosure.. - A Seller will fill out a form known as a "Sellers Real Propertl Disclosure", This form is kept in the office of their Realtor, and is given to prospective Buyers when requested, or once a contract is received. , - This disclosure goes. over everything from where the mailbox is located, to actual issues with the home, such as roof leaks, plumbing leaks, electrical issues, and anything that the Seller has knowledge of that will affect the value of the Property. - The Realtor also must inspect the property and point out items they notice which may affect the value of the Property. In addition, when a realtor has knowledge of potential development, or other changes in the area, they must notify both parties as these changes may have an effect on the property's value. - There may be items that the Seller and the Realtor have no knowledge of. I always recommend buyers to have a professional Home Inspection performed. The Home Inspector will go through every nook and cranny in a home to find defects. For a list of Home inspectors in our area, visit my homepage www.willgillespie.net. - Items that are not required to be disclosed, are deaths in the home, whether by natural causes, murder or suicide. The fact that a past owner has AIDS or HIV is not required to be disclosed and the fact that a sexual predator living in an area is not required to be disclosed. However you can obtain this information by going to the website of your local sheriffs office, or the FDLE website.

To help reduce your disposal problems try to only buy what you need. Look for items that are non toxic, read the labels of various products before you buy, .many times you have a choice of an item that is less harmful to our environment. Also consider using cleaning products that are phosphorus free or low in phos- phates.

A simple all purpose spray cleaner can be made by mixing one tea- spoon borax, two tablespoons vinegar, two cups hot water and mix all in a spray bottle. There are many recipes available to help us reduce our use of tox- ins or harmful chemicals in our home. Check what, is available "SA VE MONEY? WITH ALLSTA TE?" CALL ME.
