$1,000 Pine TREES
PLANTED next WEEK

The first of series of pine plant
ing demonstrations ever held in
Kennebec county will be started next
week and the progress of the project
will be watched with interest by
many, including those who under
take the work and those who are
still in doubt about it. M. E. Wat
son of Orono, Extension Forestry
specialist and County Agent C. A..
Day will attend these demonstra-
tions and farmers will be given the
opportunity to see how the young
trees are handled and also practice
setting pine. In each of the DEM
onstrations, 1000 pine trees will be
planted. making 1000 in all.
The State Forestry Nursery at
Orono furnishes the trees, two-year
old transplants. The first demon
stration will be at Highmoor Farm,
May II at 10 A. NJ. The reason for
the planting will be a grove to be
used in years to come where various
farm organizations may hold meet
ings.
The schedule is as follows: May IL,
, 10 A. NJ, Highmoor Farm, Win
throp; May II, 0 A. NJ, H. A. Plum
mer farm in Benton; May 13. 8 A.
NJ. d. B. Smith farm in Litchfield;

A great deal of interest is being
shown by the Kennebec farmers in
setting out waste land with pine to
years to come. A considerable num-
| Der of men hesitate to go ahead with
| the work because they are not FAM
iliar with the method OF handling
young trees and afraid q good many
| will die. If the young trees are
! properly cared for and set mortality
ought not to be over 5 per cent, ac-
cording to the judgment of County
| Agent Day. He further says that
there are three secrets in setting out
pine trees: not to allow the roots to
get dry; to dig holes In which the
trees are to be set deep enough and
to pack the earth firmly around the
roots. Two men can set an acre q
day working under favorable condf-
lions. Another reason is not setting
the trees Is the difficulty the men
experience in getting the young pine.
, While Mr.. Watson is in the coun-
| ty he will start three pine tree
nurseries: H. A. Plummer of Ben
i ton, president of Kennebec Farm
Bureau: d. r. Small of Litchfield,
county forestry leader and II. w.
Austin, South China, county chair
man. Each will plant a pound of
seeds and care for them under Mr..
Watson's direction. Under favorable
conditions a pound of seed will pro-
vide 1900 trees, enough for 10
acres of planting. This is the first
time the Extension Service has
grown pine trees in the county and
the work will be followed with In
terest as 1t is a part of the definite
forestry program for Kennebec
J county which is being worked out
