CCC Has Set Out
19 Million Trees
In N. C. Forests
Ninrtft-n million forest trees have
been planted in North Carolina since
the start of the Civilian Conserva
tion Corps, James J. McEntee, corps
national director, said this week in
commenting on the state's arbor day,
March 22.
Of the 39 camps now operating in
North Carolina. McKntree said, 13
are under direction of the U S. For
est Service and eight under the Na
tional Park Service.
?He explninod that,?through I he
allocation in 1933 and 1934 of $30,
000,000 of Emergency Conservation
Works funds for the purchase of na.
tional forests have increased from
420,700 acres under government own
ership in 1933, to more than 900,000
In 1938. There has been an aVefage
of about 14 camps on national forest
lands, and for several periods, one
on State-owned forest land carrying
on reforestation.
The CCC reforestation program in
North Carolina has resulted in
speeding production in nurseries In
supply the necessary seedlings for
| the planting program. THe~Srne for
est tree nursery on the Clayton State
Forest in Johnston County raised its
annual productiqn capacity from a
half-million seedlings to ten million
with the aid of CCC workers. Three
new nurseries on Federal forest
lands were established as part of the
CCC reforestation program, and by
1938 reported a total annual produc
tion capacity of 13,000,000 young
trees.
Since the beginning of the North
Carolina CCC program, enrollees
from the forest camps have spent a
total of 168,000 man-days of labor in
these nurseries, collecting and pro
cessing seeds for planting, weeding
new beds, transplanting and shipping
planting stock. They have gathered
34,800 bushels of pine cones from
which to extract seeds, and 380,
pounds of hardwood seeds Since for
est Tire has been one of the chief
causes of forest destruction, CCC en
rollees have extended and improved
the fire control systems throughout
North Carolina's timbered areas. In
addition, CCC crews have been the
backbone of the forest fire defense
during the past seven years, having
spent a total of 107,200 man-days of
actual fire fightig. CCC camps locat
ed on private timberlands are limit
ed to fire protection work only. Ar
bor Day was first observed in Ne
braska in 1872. The plan was con
ceived by J. Sterling Morton, then a
member of the Nebraska State Board
States Secretary of Agriculture. The
idea of an Orbor Day spread to oth
er States and was first observed In
North Carolina in 1893.

since these two items accounted for
