The Agricultural Conservation program now allows interested landowners to fill out a ACP purchase order and the cost of the seedlings is deducted from $12 per aero which is allowed for this practice. In the past, the landowner has had to pay for the trees at the time of purchase, He has been paid $12 per acre as cost sharing for successful plantings. Now, the landowner must ap ply to the ASCS office for ap proval of this practice. If he desires, the seedlings will be de livered direct to the landowner by 'the" N. C. Forest Service. Upon completion of the practice, the ASCS will pay the landowner the difference which is due him. If the trees cost $5.75 per thous and, delivered, and 1,000 is planted per acre, the landown er's check would be $6.25 per acre. The landowner's check would be for labor and other costs.
