Milo Fire The former home of the late
Tamar and Mrs. Allen on Daniel Street, now the property of Edward Ricker, was completely destroyed by fire last Friday.
The alar m came in at 2:43 p.m . and the firemen were on the scene unt il 10:00 using 5 pieces of equipment and at some times as many as 19 men.
The fire which was investigated by the State Fire Marshal's Office, is believed to have started in the wiring.
Left homeless by the blaze was the family of Mr. and Mrs. John Roberts.
C'AUTION Fire Chief Albert Perkins re
ports a car fire last Tuesday . The fire in the new car of Mr. Neil Decker is believed to have been started when the catalytic converters (anttpolution devices) became overheated while idling and set the floor mats afire. Owners of 1975 & 1976 automobiles should beware of the possib ility of this happening.

HOSPITAL FRIE NDS TO PREPARE FOR F UND RAISING Friends of Milo Commtmity Hospital will meet this Thurs .
day evening, January 15, 7 :00 p. m . at the Civil Defense Center in Milo . The purpose of the meeting is to look at various In oney-rais ing projects on beha lf of the Milo Comm unity Hos pital.
"Friends'' Chairman Galen Carey is hoping for a large tur nout at the meeting, as fund ing for the hospital has become a critical proble m and past s uccesses by hospital s upporters indicate that new fund rais ing projects could be of substantial help to the hospital. In 1975, hospital supporters were respons ib le for raising nearly $9000 in add ition to prov id ing services, materials , a nd la bor in the s uc cessful r enovation of the hos pital completed last October.

iand who sold timber during the calendar year of 1975 that they must s end a n annual report to the Bureau of Forestry, Department of Conservation, State House, Augusta, Maine 04333 . The report id due during the month of January of thill year. For-ms for filing can be obtained from all town offices or from the Bureau of Forestry.
In past years some woodland owner$ have been confused as to whether they must file a repor t or not. The woodland owner who did his own cutting or had timber cut for his own use does not need to report. He may cut any products such as fuel wood, fenceposts, pulpwood or logs for his own use or roadside sale and not report. However; if the landowner sells his timber standing on the stump for a commercia l cutter or company to come in and do the cutting then the woodland owner· must submit a report to the Forest Service. The law is recorded in Section I.R.S. , Title .12, Sub .section 520-B.
The only exception to filing when the timber is used for the woodland O\Vners use is the persons or companies who cut stumpage for their own business. They a lso must submit a ,. ·ort of the timber cut, stating the species and volume per ._/ of measure for each municipality or .township where the s tumpage was located.
Information contained in the reports shall not be made public; and is considered confidential by the Maine Forest Service. Questions about the law can be directed to Robert Umberger, Taxation, Specialist, Bureau of Forestry, State House, Augusta 04333.

F is her ies and Wild life Ronald Speers have bee.n made a vailable to SAM by the Nat ional Rifle .Associa:j; ion. Speers will concentrate on organization of the group's membership drive. .
Said Garcelon , "Even though t here are many t housands of sportsmen who constitute a major social and economic for~e in Maine there is no one wor king to represent them. SAM ts going to do that job and we will be vis ible in the legis lative process in the future."
He said "We are concerned with pre~;>erving good outdoor trad itions a~d looking after the rights of the s portsman, but we are th inking of the future as well. There is much need for sportsmen to. be active in conservation of natural r esources and in education of the public as to the role of hunting and fishing in the conservation effort."
SAlVI has.already recruited vice pres idents froro th~oughout the state, r ep!:es enting a wide range of outdoor interests. The organization has also issued thousands o£ posters and members hip appli cations a nd begun publishing a monthly newsletter to keep its membership informed.

Everyone knows tuperculosis is a disease of the lungs . Right? Right -- arid wrong, too. ·
In this co11ntry , about pile out of ten new cases of TB is located outsid~ ~he lungs. The disease can strike almos t any part of the t,lody . Som¢ par~s -~ like the bones and joints , the lymphatic, repro~uctlve, urinary aqd digestive systems, as well as the lungs -,.. are the most susceptible.
TB germs are breathed in with air and so go firs t to the luqgs. The germs may enter the blood and lymph sys tems , travelling from the lungs to another organ. If large numbers of TB germs escape suddenly into the bloodstrea m, the d is ease may be transported to many organs. This condition is cali~d· generalized miFary TB, It is extremely serious. And drug treatment sho11ld begin ~mmed lately.
In all TB conditions , eal'ly treatment can prevent cr ippling , deformity, or possible destruction of vital organs. • tubercuf!n skin te~t that shows TB germs already in the bol can be followed \lP with preventive drug treatment to avo ia-' deyelopment of the disease in the ~ungs or anywhere else.
The happy ne~vs abm.Jt TB is that it can be prevE:)nted -- and ~ured -- by takl11g pills. . .
