GARDENERS MAILBAG
BY NEIL SPERRY
Dear Neil: When is the
best time to transplant a
navel orange and grapefruit
tree? Also, I have lemon and
exican lime trees in pots.
The lime tree has given no
ruit. Should they be planted
in the ground?
Transplant those in latewinter, just before the burst
of spring growth. None ofthose is winter-hardy here,so youre going to have to
make provision to keepthem above freezing at all
times. We have had severalyears of mild winters in Tex-
as, but history has proventhat well eventually haveanother of those notable
cold spells some day, proba-bly sooner rather than later.
At that time, all the tenderplants that people have been
setting out will meet theirfates. Your plants all need tobe grown in large patio pots
and put into a greenhouseor large sunroom in the win-
ter.
Dear Neil: I have a ques-
tion Ive never seen ad-
dressed in your column. Weset out lots of pansies and
violas this fall, and they
have been virtually eaten to
the ground by cardinals. Is
there anything we can do, or
should we plant something
else?
Youre correct: that isan unusual situation. You
probably saw the cardinalsfeeding on the plants, and if
so, Ill yield to what youveseen. However, it soundsa lot more like nighttime
rabbit damage. For either,would suggest placing an
alternate food source nearthe beds. Cardinals love
black, oil-type sunflowerseeds. Rabbits like winterryegrass. Some gardeners
put blood meal around theirpansies to repel rabbits, but
dogs roll in it and can doust about as much damage.
Annual garden pinks wouldbe the best winter-hardy re-placement should you decide
to do that.
Dear Neil: I have a hedge
ow of redtip photinias
that are about 10 feet tall. I
want to prune them back to
around 4 feet. Can I do thatwithout killing them? When
should I do it?
Please forgive my bold-ness, but youre about to
make a serious mistake.
Redtip photinias are our
tallest landscaping shrubsin Texas (to 18 feet tall and10 or 12 feet wide if un-
pruned). To cut them backas severely as you describe
would weaken the plants sobadly that they might nev-
er look right again. It alsowould increase the odds
of spreading Entomospo-rium fungal leaf spot intothe weakened tissues. That
disease is rampant, and wehave no effective control for
it. But, to your answer, thetime to prune redtips wouldbe January before spring
growth breaks out. Try toleave as many leaves as you
can to sustain the plants.
Dear Neil:I garden in a
gray clay soil. It got packed
harder and harder as the
season progressed until my
plants just couldnt cope any
longer. What can I do to get
better soil next time around?
Spend the balance of thiswinter improving the soil.
Use a rear-tine rototillerto pulverize the soil thor-
oughly. Work in shreddedtree leaves and compost. Ifyou have access to well-rot-
ted manure, put a coupleof inches of it in, too. Add
a couple of inches of Cana-dian peat moss and one inchof finely ground pine bark
mulch as well. Finally, addone inch of washed brick
sand, or, better, one inch ofexpanded shale. Rototill to
blend all of those materials
together, and youll have a
garden soil that will almosthave the consistency of finepotting soil.
Dear Neil: Snails are de-
vouring my new transplants.
What can I do to stop them?
Use snail and slug baitsaround the plants. Youll
have to replace the bait eachtime you water or after ev-ery rainfall. Sevin dust also
works well. Dust it acrossthe plants leaves and the
adjacent soil. If you haveloose, organic mulch thatmight be harboring them
when theyre not feeding,you might want to remove it
carefully until the problemabates.
Dear Neil: What would
cause the leaves of a coral
bark maple to curl and turn
brown? Also, as you can see
from the photo, the branch-
ing is weak and erratic.
Help!
Answer: Coral bark ma-
ples struggle with Texas in-tense summer sun, also with
alkaline soil. Your tree lookslike its older leaves prob-ably scorched in the hot-
test part of the summer. Youmay want to consider mov-
ing it to a more protected lo-cation this winter. As for thebranching, that should self-
solve. My tree showed someof the same growth initially,
but it outgrew it.
Dear Neil: How can we
protect peach trees from the
insects and diseases that
seem to ruin them every
year?
Peaches require regularspraying. Youll be applying
something in every season.Go online to the Texas A&M
Entomology Web site andlook for homeowner spray-
ing information, then stickto it religiously if you expectto have peaches.

WISE NOTESFOR CONSUMERSBy TANYA DAVIS
WISE CO. EXTENSIONAGENT
One of the fastest growing
gifts around is not the latestvideo game, but the gift card.
o matter the oc-casion, youre sure
to receive at leastone. Gift cards offer
many convenienc-es. For the giver, itmeans you wont
make a mistake onsize, color or style.
or the recipient,it means not hav-ing to return a
gift that didnt fit,you already had or
ust wasnt you. One impor-tant item to consider is the
stability of the retailer. Insome cases with a companygoing out of business, their
gift cards might be renderedworthless.
Dr. Joyce Cavanaugh, Ex-tension Family Economics
specialist, offers advice andrecommendations that weshould all consider when
choosing just the right giftcard.
Should it be a retail cardor bank card?
Most of us are familiar withthe retail gift card. These arecards that are bought at and
can be used at a particular re-tail establishment. Some re-
tail gift cards can be used atother establishments owned
by the corporation. These es-
tablishments would be listedon the back of the card.
Bank gift cards are gainingin popularity. These cardscarry the logo of credit, debit,
or charge card companieslike American Express, Mas-
terCard, Visa orDiscover. They may
be issued directlyby the company or
by a bank, mall orother institutionand carry the credit
card company logo.The advantage of
bank gift cards isthat they can beused anywhere
that type of credit,debit or charge card
is accepted; and it may allowthe owner to withdraw cash
at ATMs. Mall cards, how-ever, can only be used at thenamed mall or mall chain.
While gift cards may seemlike the perfect gift, there
are some things you needto know before buying one.
Here are some things to lookfor when buying gift cards:! Expiration dates. Does
the card have an expirationdate? It should be visible on
the card or packaging.! Can a card be replaced
if it is lost or stolen before itsvalue has been used up andis there a fee?
! Can the bank card beused to obtain cash from an
ATM, and is there a fee?! Is there a monthly
maintenance fee? The fees
will kick in automatically,whether the card has been
used or not.! Some bank cards allow
the user to reload, or add
more value, to the card. Ifthis is an option, check to
see if there are charges forreloading.
For those who give or re-
ceive gift cards, consider thefollowing recommendations:
Givers should review allterms and conditions of a re-tail or bank gift card before
purchase. You may decideagainst a card with a lot of
fees that could drain the val-ue of the card or one where
this information is not read-
ily available. Givers shouldsend the original receipt with
the card so the recipient canmore easily obtain a replace-ment if the card is lost or sto-
len. Recipients should reviewthe terms and conditions of a
gift card immediately uponreceipt. If there is an expira-
tion date, use the card imme-
diately. If you receive a bankgift card, avoid transactions
that will result in fees.I hope this information
proves useful as you pur-
chase those last minute gifts.For additional information,
contact Texas AgriLife Ex-tensions Wise County office

MAKE SUMMER
CAMP WORRY FREESome important considerationswhen choosing a summer campare the medical and safety servicesavailable at the camp. According torecommendations from the AmericanAcademy of Pediatrics, a good campwill have written health policies andprotocols. All children attending thecamp should be required to havehad a complete exam by a doctor inthe past year and be up-to-date onall childhood shots. Parents shouldmake sure the leaders have a detailedhealth history of their child, including
any significant illnesses, operations,injuries, allergies, and any currentmedical problems. If a child has specificallergies, the parents should sendalong allergy medications or Epi-pensin case the child suffers a seriousattack if exposed to a known allergen.

TEXAS HEALTH MATTERS
Drink the first glass. Siphe second slowly. Skip the
hird.
Attributed to Knute
ockne, former Notre Dame
ootball coach
With Christmas and Newears Day cited by health
experts as among the high-est-risk periods for heavy
alcohol consumption, itsclear that Christmas trees
arent all that tend to bewell lit during the holi-days.
Even people who general-ly are light drinkers some-
times overdo it at holidayparties, according to Mimi
artinez-McKay of theTexas Department of State
ealth Services.
The problem isnt somuch what we think of as
binge drinking, Martinez-cKay said. Its more a
matter of people consumingmore alcohol than theyreaccustomed to in a concen-
trated time period.The risks of this spike
in excessive drinking areobvious: Increases in traf-
fic accidents, domestic vio-lence and sexual assaults,
as well as adverse healtheffects ranging from simplehangovers to hospital ad-
missions for alcohol toxicityreactions.
If you expect to be pres-ent at parties or other set-tings where alcohol will be
served, health experts urgean advance planning ap-
proach based on limiting
consumption and protectingyour safety and that of oth-ers if you do over-indulge.
Keeping holiday drinkingunder control is largely a
matter of being aware thatseasonal parties make iteasy for a two-drink-per-
night person to over-imbibewithout really trying.
One key, McKay said, is tolimit the number of holiday
parties you attend. This ap-proach has the dual benefitof reducing the total num-
ber of drinks consumed andlowering the risk of driving
while intoxicated. Even ifyou have only one or two
just to be polite drinks perparty, the cumulative ef-fect can be similar to binge
drinking at one party. Another smart approach
to managing your alcoholintake is to drink water and
other non-alcoholic bever-ages especially if you al-ready have consumed two
or more alcoholic drinks.Smart holiday hosts in-
creasingly are offeringguests refreshing alco-
hol-free drinks, includingnon-alcoholic wines, cham-
pagnes and beers. This notonly makes life easier forthose who are trying to
moderate their intake butalso reduces potential so-
cial awkwardness for non-drinkers.
Hosts also should be
aware that pushing drinkson guests is not only unwise
but inconsiderate to guests
who are trying to take asmarter approach to get-ting in the holiday spirit.
How Fast and How
Much both matter
If youre blessed with ex-ceptional will power, a sim-pler option exists: decide
upon an absolute limit inadvance and cut yourself
off when you reach it. Rec-ognize, too, that your rate
of consumption matters just as much as the totalamount you drink. Blood
alcohol concentration isthe key factor in intoxica-
tion level, so downing threedrinks in 20 minutes will
have far greater impactthan if you consume themat one-hour intervals.
How do you know whatyour blood alcohol level is?
Hand-held breath analy-sis devices are available at
many pharmacies, but theyarent always practical tocarry and tend to be less
accurate than those usedby law officers.
An easier approach isto be aware of the rate at
which alcohol is metabo-lized. In general alcohol is
burned off at the averagerate of about one standarddrink (for example, one
flute of champagne) perhour. Be aware, though,
that total body alcohol con-centration rises faster fora person with a small body
mass than for a larger indi-vidual.
Other key factors in how
quickly alcohol builds upin your blood include fatcontent and gender. Leaner
folks feel intoxicated morequickly because fat slows
alcohol absorption, andwomen metabolize alcoholdifferently than men, re-
sulting in partially metabo-lized alcohol staying longer
in the bloodstream.The result: a man may
take five drinks to reach ablood alcohol concentrationof .08 while a small woman
may reach that same lev-el with only two or three
drinks.Its smart, then, to limit
total consumption, drinkslowly, adjust consumptionto your body type, and con-
sume food as well as drinkto further slow alcohol ab-
sorption.Finally, if you do feel
youve celebrated a bit toovigorously, be safe and con-siderate by taking a cab
home, asking another per-son to drive or even spend-
ing the night in a hotel ifthis is an option.
Regardless of how wellyouve been able to stick to
your party-smart strategy,its never too late to makedecisions youll be pleased
with the morning after.

THE COUNSELING CORNERBY THE AMERICAN
COUNSELING
ASSOCIATION
While the holiday season
is usually one of joy, hap-piness and celebration, for
many people the emotion ofthe season is often depres-
sion. Fortunately, it doesnthave to be that way. Many
of the things that leave usfeeling depressed are thingswe can control.
For example, the constantstream of media and adver-
tising holiday images con-tributes to depression formany people. Comparing
our own lives to these un-realistic images of holiday
perfection, its easy to feelleft out, inadequate or as if
we arent getting all thatsdue us.
While theres no avoiding
the holiday media/advertis-ing blitz, its easy to accept
that what were being shownisnt reality, but rather the
make-believe that comeswith actors, make up artists
and high dollar productions.We dont have to competewith that.
Eating healthier and get-ting enough rest is another
way to fight holiday blues.Holiday foods usually meantoo many rich, high-calorie
party temptations, treatsloaded with sugar and op-
portunities to drink toomuch. Toss in a busy holi-
day schedule and its easyto feel tired, unhealthy,overweight and generally
depressed.So should you just avoid
all those holiday foods? Ac-tually, no, since that can
leave you feeling deprivedand more likely to finally
over-indulge. Instead, usecommon sense and mod-eration. Limit alcohol con-
sumption and enjoy your fa- vorite holiday foods, but in
reasonable-sized portionsand without going back forseconds.
And dont forget exercise.Its often ignored in busy
holiday schedules, yet stud-ies show that even small or
moderate amounts of ex-ercise can lift your spirits.Its also a great way to burn
those extra calories of theseason.
Lastly, dont let depres-sion rule your life. Holiday
socializing is a great wayto combat the blues. Make
the effort to go and meetpeople at a party, or just callup a friend to go for coffee
and talk about interestingthings. Spending time with
others and refocusing yourthinking on positive thingsyou enjoy is your goal.
Eating right, exercising,taking a realistic view of
the holiday madness andhaving an active social life
all take effort, but theyreall essential to helping youenjoy the holiday season.
Even small efforts in theseareas can help you feel bet-
ter physically and mentally.But if you find nothing
seems to help fight thatholiday depression, talk to
a counseling professional.Theyre trained to help you
work through and cope withthese feelings.

Dear Savvy Senior,Over the past few years,
y mother, who is 75, has
otten where she dreads the
holiday season and becomes
very melancholy. What can I
do to help?
Hating the Holidays
Dear Hating,
Millions of people experi-ence the holiday blues thistime of year, but seniors
tend to be especially vulner-able. Here are some sugges-
tions that can help.Holiday blues
There are lots of factorsthat can contribute to an
older persons sadness orapathy around the holi-day season such as the loss
of a spouse, sibling or aclose friend. Some seniors
feel alone and isolated be-cause their grown childrenand grandchildren live far
away. While others mayfeel blue because of finan-
ial concerns, poor health
or because theyre unable toperform routine holiday ac-
tivities like shopping, bak-ing or even attending reli-
gious services.How to help
Depending on whats
making your mother blueduring this holiday season,
here are some tips that mayhelp: Be a good listener: Talk
to your mom about howshes feeling and why. Very
often just being able toshare feelings with some-
one can help. Prevent isolation: En-
courage family membersto be around your mom as
much as possible duringthe holidays. If you cant bethere physically, be sure to
call more often. Find community help:
Contact her church or othercommunity resource wheresomeone may be able to stop
by for a visit, or pick her upfor a religious service or
community activity.
Ease her financial guilt:If your mom is on a tight
budget, be sure she doesntfeel guilty if she cant afford
to buy the grandchildrenfancy gifts. Its not what theholidays should be about.
Lend a helping hand:If poor health or physical
limitations are causing herblues, lend her a hand with
shopping, decorating andother holiday preparations. Suggest volunteering:
Many churches or civicgroups would love her help
(also see Web sites likewww.volunteermatch.org
and www.getinvolved.govto find volunteer opportu-
nities). Helping others isa great way to forget yourown troubles. Watch the holiday spir-
its: Alcohol consumption for
many people goes up duringthe holiday season, and al-cohol is a depressant that
can intensify the problem. Go for a walk: Exercise
is a natural antidepressant
so encourage your mom togo for a daily walk, or if pos-
sible, take one with her.Watch for depression
Theres a big differencebetween feeling sad or blueand being chronically de-
pressed. If your moms blueslinger beyond the holidays
into the New Year, she mayhave a more serious prob-
lem. Here are the signs towatch for: A persistent feeling of
sadness. Lost interest in hobbies
or activities that she for-merly enjoyed. Feeling worthless or
hopeless.
Inability to sleep orsleeping too much. Loss of energy or moti-
vation. Not eating or eating too
much. Trouble thinking, con-
centrating and making de-
cisions. Feeling anxious, rest-

According to a recent study, incontinence is a widespread
disorder that may affect one in every four women. Moreover, the study
says that perhaps as many as one in three older women may be affected in
their lifetimes. Urinary incontinence is by far the most common problem.
Childbirth, which can weaken pelvic floor muscles, is the most frequent
cause. This study emphasizes the need to identify causes of pelvic floor
disorders as well as the means to prevent and treat them. Treatments for
urinary stress incontinence range from exercises to surgical options; urge
incontinence (overactive bladder) can be treated with lifestyle changes and
a variety of medications. Women should feel comfortable bringing any
problems to their doctors attention.
Many people with urinary problems try to manage on their own,
often because its a source of embarrassment. At our office, we understand
the unique needs of every one of our patients. Our compassionate staff will
listen to your concerns and ensure that you fully understand your treatment
options. When you require OB/GYN care, call WISE OBSTETRICS &
GYNECOLOGY P.A at 940-626-8008. The office is conveniently located
at 1713 South Fm 51, Ste. 201, Decatur. New patients are welcome.
In the study mentioned above, one of the most effective ways of staving off
incontinence is to maintain a healthy weight. Obesity is a major risk factor.

Hunting season has beenunder way for more than
three months now, andchances are a good many
of you have a freezer wellstocked with everythingfrom dove breasts to venison
steaks.Game meat is far more
nutritious than domesticbut it does require differentcooking techniques. Take
venison, for example. Veni-son is very lean and what fat
there is in the meat shouldbe removed; its the fat that
sometimes contributes tothe gamey taste that somefolks complain about.
I am often asked questionssuch as are wild hogs good
to eat or doesnt venisonhave that gamey taste?
ve found it impossible toanswer these questionswith a blanket statement. I
often reply with somethinglike this: If you were going
to a hog farm to purchaseyour pork chops, would you
choose the oldest boar? Like-wise, you wouldnt choose anolder bull for your T-Bone
steaks! Younger game ani-mals in good condition ob-
viously make better tablefare than older ones. This is
not to say that venison fromolder bucks, if prepared
properly, is not good eating.always use the center ham
cuts, tenderloins and back-
straps for steaks and grindthe rest for sausage or, add
beef fat to it and make veni-son burgers.
Because of its dry na-
ture, larger cuts of venisonmust always be cooked with
moisture. Ive slow-cooked
many venison hams with theend result a flavorful, tasty
piece of meat. Slow-cookingat a low temperature is the
key to preparing roasts fromgame animals. I usually sea-
son the roast well with myfavorite dry seasonings anda couple of bay leaves, and
using a sharp knife, makeincisions into the roast and
insert pieces of bacon, sliv-ers of garlic and onion or ja-lapeno pepper. Then, covered
with slices of fatty baconand a little butter on top, I
place the roast in a coveredcast iron kettle and bake
slowly for about 10 hours at200 degrees. The meat fallsoff the bone and is well re-
ceived at the dinner tablewhen served with carrots,
potatoes and onions (which Iadd to the roast a couple of
hours before serving).Making barbecue from
these larger cuts is anoth-
er great way to please thecrowd at hunting camp or
home. I do a lot of my cook-ing on a Smokin Tex (www.
smokintex.com) electricsmoker, and Ive found itto be a very easy, carefree
method of tenderizing larg-er, tougher cuts of meat. I
simply place the roast in adouble layer of heavy duty
foil, add barbecue sauceand allow to smoke, uncov-
ered a couple of hours, usinghickory, plum, peach or pe-can wood. Then, wrapped in
the foil, the roast is allowedto smoke at 200 degrees for
up to 12 hours or so, or over-night. This method makessome of the best tasting,
most tender barbecue imag-inable. I often smoke cuts
of wild hog, which have fla-
vorful fat, with venison andblend the two for chopped
barbecue.Chicken fried venison
steak is better tasting thanthe best beef round steak,
to my way of thinking. I usea tenderizing mallet andpound the steaks, adding dry
seasonings during the pro-cess. Then, I cover the steaks
with milk and refrigerateseveral hours before frying.Dipped in an egg batter and
dusted with flour, the steaksneed only three or four min-
utes on each side in hot oil.Drain the steaks, chop and
saut an onion in a little ofthe remaining oil and poura big can of mushroom soup
(with a little water) and youhave smothered steak! Put
a lid on the cast iron skil-let and bake or cook on the
stove top over low heat foran hour or so to tenderize;serve with hot rice and hot
dinner rolls.Preparing and cooking wa-
terfowl requires a bit differ-ent technique, but if all the
duck dinners you have beenserved in the past tastedlike liver, chances are pretty
good the cook didnt have aclue of how to prepare and
cook ducks and geese. LanellHolland, my wifes cousin, is
married to the legendary wa-terfowl guide Jack Holland.
Years ago, she instructed mein the proper way to prepareduck and goose breasts. Its
the blood in the meat of wa-terfowl that can give it the
strong, liver flavor. Removethe breast halves and but-terfly them. Then place in
cold water and, using yourhands, squeeze the meat.
This greatly aids in remov-
ing the blood in the meat,she instructed. John Bryan,
another friend that guidesfor ducks on the Brazos
River, takes the process astep farther and uses a ten-
derizer mallet to tenderizethe breast halves, then heplaces them in a pan of cold
water. Waterfowl breasts,prepared thus, are excel-
lent when wrapped in fattybacon and grilled or, believeit or not, chicken fried just
like venison steaks. Servedwith hot biscuits and cream
gravy, Bryan proved to meits tough to distinguish the
flavor of duck breasts fromchicken fried venison!
Quail and dove can be
prepared and fried just likechicken. My friend and fel-
low outdoors writer BobHood came upon a method
for preparing quail that isthe best Ive found. He plac-es a couple of rows of Ritz
crackers in a plastic bagand crushes them into a fine
meal. Next, in a Dutch Ovenhe melts a stick of butter,
then coats the quail pieces(or chicken wings) in but-ter, then covers them with
the Ritz meal. Cooked forabout 1 hour, the quail are a
golden brown. The Ritz mealbatter is crunchy and adds
a great deal of flavor to thegame birds.
If youre new to cookinggame and game birds, hope-fully these tips will serve as a
good place for you to expandyour culinary skills. Mak-
ing great tasting meals fromgame animals and birds isreally no great feat, but it
does require a bit of commonsense and adherence to a few
basic rules. In no time, I ex-

Outdoor tip of the
week
Now is prime time for driftfishing for blue catfish, and
chances are very good youlive close to a lake or riverthat provides good winter-
time fishing. The biggestblues are landed each year
during the dead of winter.Savvy drift fishermen em-
ploy a drift rig developed at
Santee Cooper Reservoir. Totie this rig, begin with a ba-
sic Carolina rig with a 4-footleader. The big difference
between the Santee Rig andthe Carolina Rig is a smallfloater positioned about 6-
inches up from the hook/bait. This float keeps the
bait up off bottom during thedrift, making it much easier
for the catfish to grab as itdrifts by. It also greatly re-
duces hang-ups. Fresh shadis a favored bait of drift fish-ermen, but fillets from rough
fish such as carp or buffalo-fish also make good baits for
big blues. If wind speed ismuch above 12 knots, use adrift sock or a couple of plas-
tic 5-gallon buckets on thewindward side of your boa
to slow your drift.
