STATE COLLEGE ANSWERS TIMELY FARM QUESTIONS QUESTION: What is the out look for the pullet crop in North Carolinai ANSWER:. C. P. Planish, Exten sion poultryman, says indications are that 20 to 25 percent more pullets will .go into the laying house this year than last. Farmers will remem ber, too, that the number last year was well above the 1940 figure. Two factors have been responsible for this: a desire on the part of the farmer to help out in the war effort by supplying more eggs and higher prices for the eggs. Another factor is a shift from broiler production to egg production. QUESTION; Where may forest tree seedlings be obtained? ANSWER: R. W. Graeber, Exten sion forester, has just announced that certain seedlings may be ordered now from State nurseries in Johnston and ^tederson counties for fall and spring planting. Loblolly, longleaf, • shortleaf, slash, and 2-year-old white pines may be secured for $2 a thous and delivered, or $1.80, f.o.b., the nurseries. Three-year old white pine and red cedar sell for >2.50 a thous and delivered or |2.25, f.o.b., the nurseries. Orders may be placed with Mr. Graeber at State College, Raleigh. — L QUESTION: Where may I find free information on drying fruits and vegetables? ANSWER: The Extension Service of State College has just reprinted Extension, Circular No. 232, "The Home Drying of Fruits and Vegeta bles." A free copy may be secured by writing to the Agricultural Editor, State College, Raleigh. OFFICIAL UNITE* STATtS TiiASUKY , NORTH tAROUNA WAR DOND QUOTAS FOR AUGUST I I WASHINGTON, D.
