Trees Must Live
If ASC To Share
In Planting Cost
Many North Carolina farmers
are apparently going to be in for
a (big disappointment when they
start 1o collect for trees planted
under A CP and Soil Bank Conser
vation Reserve contracts.
The contracts state that a satis
factory number of the trees must
be living at the end of the first
summer. In addition, Soil Bank
tree planting contracts require
that a satisfactory stand of trees
must be maintained on the land
during the term of the contract.
Inspectors for the North Caro
lina Forest Service say that a
great many areas planted in trees
this year are already failures and
definitely will not qualify for gov
ernment cost-sharing.
The foresters say the failures
are caused by: (1) Improper care
of seedlings before planting, and
(2) poor planting procedures.
tYod Claridge, state forester. I
who is responsible for inspection
of these tree plantings, say that
each planting will be carefully
checked Those plantings not meet
ing survival requirements will be
turned down for payment if the
planting failure is caused by con
dition that could have been con
trolled by the landowner.
The landowner is responsible
for meeting all the planting re
quirements, Claridge reminded, re
gardless of Who does the actual
planting.

which will bring the national av

Don’t forget, farmers who sold
wool during the 1959 marketing
year, should bring their sales tick
