Lespedeza Seedlings Given Free To State's Residents "At the time of year when bob white quail find natural food the scarcest, sportsmen and farmers should take note tjiat the State Wildlife Commission has 5.000.000 bleolor leaped era aeed lines ready for free dlltrlbutlon to all who want t? get them and plant for use by next year's crop of farm game." This statement was made today by Robert Hasel. supervisor of the state's upland game habitat reetor itlon projects. Mr. Hasel pointed out that al though several millions of bicolor espedeta seedlings and over a mil ion multiflora rose plants have been delivered, thete are (till Ave millions of blcolor seedlings ready for Immediate delivery. The sup ply of rose seedlings has been ex hausted. Blcolor lespedeza seed lings may be obtained by applying to County Extension Agents, Dis trict Soil Conservationists, Wild life Commission Field Biologists. Or by writing to Box 2910, Raleigh. Fersons who In the ?ast have planted blcolor lespedeza and mul tiflora rose seedlings were urged by the Wildlife Commission to check on these plantings to see if maintenance improvements are needed. Blcolor plantings that have not produced good crops of seeds, or which show numerous dead stems, need renovation by cutting back old stems and applying 0-14 14 fertiliser at the rate of 100 poundf^per eighth-acre planting. Mutttflora rose hedges with gaps can be repaired by bending canes over into vacant spots and burying them so that the tip is exposed. The latter will root and form new plants. Variation in the growth of the hedge may be remedied by ap plying 6-8-6 or 5-10-10 fertiliser to thin areas at the rate of ten pounds per 100 feet of row Bicolor lespedeza and multlflora rose provide small game protection j the year around, but are especial- , ly valuable as game food produc ers during January-. February, and i March when the supply of natural 1 or native foods is extremely scarce. | Smoky Mtn. DRIVE-IN THEATRE Balsam Rd.
