W. Graebern, extension forester at State College, visited his farm, Mr. Tiekle -A li little more than forty years ago. I settled os this place to make a liv ing for myself and family. The farm had been abused and was badly wash, ed and gullied. One field of 14 acres was in such bad condition that it was J impossible for me to use it in plant, jl lng. It was so poor that the former ] owner asked the tax assessor to re.lt lieve him of that part of his farm 11 because it would not sell for the amount of the annual tax. "I decided to reclaim this field with pines. At that time, there were few pines growing in this section of Ala mance county so I went into another community and dug a quantity.of pine seedlings to plant in this field. | < Some of the seedlings, I planted j siound among the gullies. On about ! half the area, I planted the trees in ! i rows, somewhat like an prchard is j set, with the pines about 28 to 30 feet apart. I started this planting la I 1887 and added, a little each winter until, the whole 14 acres was very well covered* After these scattering plantings grew large enough to make seed, the whole field was soon seeded to a thick stand. Today this field of waste land is as valuable, acre for :re, as any field on my farm." Mr. Tickle "stated that folks would dly believe him when he told them 1918, at which time his trees were ut thirty years old, that he had cut enough lumber from the field to erect several pecess&ry buildings on his farm. .? "And" says Mr. Tickle, "this field of timber is now making sufficient growth each year to pay the taxes on my whole farm." TEE AT"* TOBACCO SEED TO PEEVE XT DISEASE Raleigh, Jan. 2.?Leaf spot diseases of tobacco, which take a heavy toll ia North Carolina each season, may be controlled by treating the seed with a formaldehyde solution before plant in" in the seed bed. O. W. Pant, plant disease special. 1st at State College, finds that angu. lar leaf spot and wildfire are two of the meat serious of the leaf dl_ i senses of tobacco and he gives a se ries of six suggestions which may be her to help in controlling | the troubles. First, be states, where the crop has been troubled/ with leaf spot diseases IB. previous years, select a new lo. cation for the plant bed on land that 1* well drained. Second, treat the seed before planting with a formal, dehyde solution prepared by mixing oj|e tablespoonful of the chemical with ode pint of water. This solution may be placed in a glass Jar and the seed dipped in, using a cheese cloth sack or bag. The seed must be kept in the solution for exactly ten minutes after which they are removed, washed tho roughly and dried. jNext, it is wise to either boll the plant bed covers or buy new onee. best plants which leaf spot should be remove from its showing so that leaf be spread. - ? ? t - - W . ' several of the more common tobacco ? diseases are known to live over in I the eoll from one eeaaon to the next fit is therefore Important thai a ro tation of erope be practiced on. the tobacco land. This is advisable from ' the standpoint of "fertility of the land ii an well as for disease control. L? i A number of good tobacco growers ; in North Carolina have been practic ing these suggestions for the past two or three years and have had excellent results in producing a better quality oi weed.
