    What to think about when hiring an office person for the first time...

    What are the best Scissors ?

    I have spent a bunch of money buying really nice sewing scissors only to have our fancy ropes ruin them. Are there scissors on the market made specifically for our very abrasive type ropes? I am tired of buying expensive scissors only to have them last a month.

    Apparent vascular wilt of american beech?????

    That's what it looks like! I've noticed it on a lot of other beech trees too, and I imagine systemic fungicides would help. I am always weary of systemic treatments of trees that are also wild food crops for wild life though... Has anyone experimented with "Neem cake"? It's a soil additive...

    Apparent vascular wilt of american beech?????

    That didn't work. Let me try these. Also, the symptom has spread quite rapidly to the rest of the tree, and I have now noticed symptoms on a nearby beech as well. We have had quite a rainy year, but this is a mountain side site with good drainage and no site disturbance.
