Orders For Trees
Should Be Placed
Last year 244 farmers were dis
appointed when th?y were unable to
obtain 544,000 forest tree seedlings
ordered through their county agents.
The State Forest Nurseries, where
the seedlings are grown, were un
able to supply more than a million
trees requested by farmers and
others.
With this in view, R. W. Graeber,
extension forester at N. C. State Col
lege, urges that farmers place their
forest tree orders for the 1940-41
planting season at an early date. A1
ady applications for more than
4-h4W,W-tii c? have been?leeeived
by the State Department of Conser
vation and Development which op
erates th? two slate nurseries at
Clayton m ar Raleigh and in Hen
derson County. The nurseries will
have 5.400.000 trees available this
year.-'- '? ? -' - ' _????
County farm agents of the exten
sion service have order blanks for
the trees and they will be in a posi
tion to advise with farmers as to
' the correct species for climatic and
.soil conditions.
The following species are avail
able this year: Lob lolly, long leaf,
short leaf, slash and white pine; black
Incut, cypress,White ash. yellow pop
liar. red cedar and balck walnut. No
order will be filled for less than 500
of any one species, except black
walnut for which the minimum or
der w ill be 100 trees.

games to be played in the vicinity of

North Carolina will play host to

nightcap to this pair. N. C. State
will engage Mississippi State at Ral

Tulane, hitting its stride last week
with a defeat over the strong Rice
Owls, is expected to give quite a
show of power against the aerial
maneuvers of Lalanne and Co of
North Carolina. The Wave, ranked
in the nation's Big Ten at the Jt>e
ginning of the season, could not click
and lost its first three games, al
though statistics showed the Coach
.Dawson's lads had plenty on the ball.
The game at Wake Forest also
promises to be a natural, with both
Duke and Wake Forest suffering a
lone defeat. Wake Forest's victory
over North Carolina made them the
big opposition to Duke's supremacy
in Big Five circles, -making this
battle a fight to a big end.
Capping the climax N. C. State's

Barley Produce* Pork Of
An Excellent Quality
Pound for pound barley is not as
efficient as corn but barley does pro
duce pork of excellent quality. It
"does"not pay lb grind corn for hogs
but it does pay to grind barley and
the grinding increases its feed value
by 17 per cent. If barley is substitut
ed for corn as hog feed, extension
swine special Ellis Vestal, recom
mends that 120 pounds of the whole
barley replace 100 pounds of shell
ed corn. Because of the usual
droughts in summer, it may be well
to plant some barley this fall for
hog feed next year.
Sprinft-Elowering Bulb*
Should Be Planted Note
The sooner spring-flowering bulbs
can be planted, the better they will
bloom, says J. G. Weaver, State Col
lege floriculturist. They should be
planted in October, at least. Pre
pare the soil well before planting
any bulbs. The soil should be pul
verized and worked to a depth of
at least 10 inches. Commercial fer
tilize- at a rate of three pounds per
100 square feet may be used if mix
ed . well with the soil. A complete
I fertilizer high in potash is recom
?monded. A- two inch layer of well
rotted manure may be used if it is
worked thoroughly into the soil.
