PACIFIC FIR GOES
i TO NEW YORK FAIR
NEW YORK (Special;. "Good old
: Douglas fir" from the Pacific Northwest
will provide the foundations for the most
spectacular of wonders at the New York
; World's Fair ot 1939. , '
This was learned when the Fair Corpo
ration offices In the Emoire State build-
J lng announced the purchase of more
than V 100,000 worm oi nr pilings irom
the National Pole Treating Company.
This particular lot ot fir sticks will be
driven into the ash All of the 1216-acre
exposition site to guarantee the support
ot the two unique structures forming
the Theme Centre of the "Nation's Fair."
These are the 200-foot rUiU?re, a
globe seemingly supported on the waters
of fountains, and the Trylon, a 700-foot
triangular needle or beacon and broad
casting tower.
Shipments of the 1260 sticks, 95 to 99
feet in length, are taking place this
i month, after creosote treatment has been
J, accorded them either at the National Pole
r and Treating Company's plant at Hill-
yard, Washington, or at the Minneapolis
yards,
. This Is the Fair's second purchase of
fir from Northwest sources. An Order
for 770 sticks of similar length was filled
early this year from Oregon cuttings.
This earlier shipment of piling supports
Fair's $900,000 Administration Bulld
f i already erected on the grounds.

Vegetables are not the only foods
to produce such results, of course, but
they are the "deficiency" types which
supply the hidden food, elements
lacking in so many other modern
table delicacies. The fact that they
are grown at home and can be used
fresh from the garden without the
loss brought about by being kept out

valuable for the health and complex

visor at State College. . .
Forms have been furnished from
Washington on which will be set
down the acreages of depleting and
conserving crops ana tne areas on
which soil-buildinc
practices are
being conducted.
Since farmers have until October
31 to giant certain conserving crops
and start soil-building practices
under the 1937 program, the task of
checking compliance cannot be fully
completed until after that date, Pat
ten pointed out.
In 60 counties, aerial photographs
being made this summer, or taken
previously, will be used to determine
the acreages of different fields on
individual farms.
The supervisor will take the pic
tures to the farm and identify, with
the help of the farmer, the different
fields and the crops growing on
them.
Acreage can be checked with an
accuracy within one per cent when
the photographs are used. This
method is also faster and more econo
mical than measuring with tapes,
Fatten stated.
North Carolina farmers earned
more than $12,000,000 under the pro
gram last year with some 115,000
farms cooperating.
