RAYMOND — Mississippi State University Extension Service forestry specialists are encouraging timberland owners to keep a watchful eye on their property for signs of bark beetles and disease after January’s ice storm.
Of Mississippi’s five species of bark beetles, the three species of Ips engraver beetles and southern pine beetles, or SPB, raise the most concern. Black turpentine beetles are not as common or as deadly and are of least concern.

A new experience for me!
The cheer competition, Deep South Eras Cheer, was in New Orleans in a huge venue: spotlights, colored lights, big music, projection screens and excited announcers!
Plus, all the cheer girls of all ages from little to teens; their moms armed with hair spray, glitter and lipstick; and dads — some dressed in cheer T-shirts and carrying bags and younger children. Also, we grandmas were bringing up the rear and giving lots of encouragement to our little contestants.
