TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS INCREASE IN DISTRICT Marion, Mar. 17.—Traffic law vio lators in the eighth highway dis trict paid a total of $1,719.40 in fines and costs during the month of Feb rur»ry, as compared with a total of $812.55 in January, although theto tal number of violations made dur ing the second month was less, ac cording to information coming from the February report recently released from the office here of Lieutenant R. H. Beck, of the state highway pa trol. The vast difference is apparently due to the recent warning of Lieu tenant Beck, who said, "the motor ists of this district have h*d ample • V. time to become familiar enough with the traffic laws to abide by them, and in the future there will be con siderably fewer warnings and more arrests."

Caldwell 4-H Boys Plant Black Walnuts Two thousand black walnut trees were planted in Caldwell county last week by eighty 4-H club boys as their first effort toward replacing the fast diminishing supply of walnut timber. The trees were secured from the Alabama State Nursery as the supply of black walnut grown by the North Carolina State Nursery had been exhausted by the heavy de mand. Caldwell county did not partici pate in the early distribution of black walnut trees, but recently a Caldwell citizen agreed to pay for 2,000 trees if the bays would plant them and keep records of their growth for five years. While on a recent visit to Cald well county, R. W. Graeber, exten sion forester at State College, as sisted P. M. Hendricks, county a gent, in presenting this program to the organized 4-H clubs of the coun ty. He asked the boys to consult their fathers and report to the coun ty agent. In three days, eighty boys had signed up and filed their requests for trees. Each boy got twenty-five trees and they were planted in fence corners, ditch banks and other waste places around the boys' homes. This will be the largest Black Wal nut Club in the State, says Mr. Grae ber . These boys will keep a five year lecord of the growth of the trees. The club adopted as its slogan: "Plant A Walnut Tree and Harvest a Furniture Crop." The donor of the trees told Mr. Hendricks that he was very much in terested in Caldwell county boys and their future, but he would not let his name be made known in con nection with the project.
