PAGE TWO >—SECTION OWE Your Woods During Slack Perrods I By Charlea D. Woodard. Jr. Service Forester f; The work connected with limber growing does not con lict with other jobs, but on the (ontrary, will lit very n.celv nto most other types of work. i your slack period is in the lummer that is an excellent time io do woods work and if your slack period is in winter that is bLso an excellent time to work In the woods. , Since well over half the wood land in North Carolina is in luded jv farm boundaries, let’s use the farming enterprise as an example and see how the busi ness of. forestry fits into the farming operation. This should make an interesting example also because trees are a crop Bust as other farm crops and respond many instances, to treatment., .imilaf to the same (treatments to farm crops. Since at takes several years to mature w crop of timber the production ipf timber will differ in certain •respects to the production of ag ricultural crops. One big way ■rees differ as a crop is that •they don’t have to be mature to ■Lave a value, but can be used for something from the time {they are three inches in diam eter and large enough for {fence posts, whereas most agri cultural crops must be mature refore they can be used. Farming jobs are chiefly sum jtner jobs, and agricultural crops (being grown on a short rotation (require almost immediate atten tion in cultivation and harvest, jand the lack of such attention jean cause serious loss. On the (other hand, timber is grown on 2a longer rotation and does not Jfequire immediate treatments. (The practice of forestry blends fyery nicely into the farming operation because almost all the Jobs can be done during the winter months when there is no pressure from other work. Also 4he work in the woods can be {timed so that almost every job will furnish some income or Toenfefit. Cull timber can be re moved for wood and thin kings can be made so. that they will furnish fence posts, pulp {wood, saws logs or other useable Products. ; Some operators have labor that •they would. like to keep busy during slack\periods so they will /have good jytperienced help dur ing rush seasons. Woods work would be an excellent way to !hold this labor and supplement (your income at the same time. ,’A well-managed woodland should (furnish an average annual in- Icome of over $25.00 per acre. Another way in which forestry •fits nicely into the farming op Vegetable Growers FINEST SEEDS BE SURE OF FINEST QUALITY BY BUYING YOUR SEED IN SEALED BAGS AND 1-LB. CANS.

When this happens it is awfully nice to have a few acres of woodland from which to pull a few dollars —this is like cash in the bank. No matter what your occupa tion is if you have woodland it will pay you to have a for ester help you in its manage ment. Before selling timber it is very desirable to have it marked. This will give the owner an idea of what he has to sell and also can have a lot to do with the next crop of tim ber on the land. The N. C- Division of Forestry is a service agency and has for esters available to help land owners in managing their wood lands and .marking timber. Con tact your local County Forest Ranger Lewis H. Stallings, for a visit by a forester. Confusion About *63 Grain Program In Most Cases Farm ers Will Get More Than In 1962 According to the local ASCS office, there has been some con cision about the total amount i that can be received under the 1963 Feed Grain program. Even though the low payment is much lower than it was in 1962, a ffermer will get, in most cases, more than he received in 1962 dor diverting the same number of acres. The difference this j'ear is that he will get a pay ment (18c X yield shown on no tice) on each acre planted up to his base. Please call the ASCS office for more details. Farmers are reminded that if they want to participate in the 1963 Feed Grain Program they should visit the county office and file their intentions before March 22, 1963. Farmers are also reminded tjhat if they intend to apply for 1(963 farm storage facility or dry i»r loans they must participate tn the fged grain program by at least the minimum which is 20% of base acreage.
