EROSION AREAS TO
PUT in SEEDLINGS
Millions of Small Trees Being Planted
Throughout State During
This Winter

College Station, Raleigh, Feb. o.
North Carolina farmers in erosion
control areas this winter will plant
100000 tree seedlings, more than L.
100000 shrubs, and more than 100000
kudzu plants, according to E. B. Gar
rett, state coordinator of the Soil
Conservation Service.
The trees, plants, and shrubs are be-
ing shipped as needed to the eight de-
monstration projects and Is CCC
camp areas assigned to the Soil Con
servation Service in North Carolina
About one million of the tree seed
ings were produced in the North Car
Dina State Nursery and the others
we're grown in Soil Conservation Ser
vice nurseries as a part of the CCC
camp program.
Cooperating farmers in demonstra-
ion projects and camp areas will
plant the trees on severely eroded por-
ions of their farms to show how trees
will check erosion and put such land
to it's best use. They will plant the
shrubs in gullies and on CALLED areas,
and along field and woodland hor-
ders to put useless land to work pro-
ducing food and cover for wildlife.
Farmers will use the kudzu plants
to form permanent strips on critical
areas in cultivated fields, in gullies,
on CALLED spots, on road banks and
other locations where perennial vege-
tation is needed to prevent excessive
soil loss. Kudzu is fast-growing vine
that has been found effective in con-
trolling erosion and for hay produc-
ton.

Gasoline tax receipts are the only
form of State revenue which cannot
be broken down into amounts paid by
each county, your correspondent has
just learned.
Trying to learn gas tax receipts
from a group of Piedmont counties,
the inquiring reporter was informed
by Revenue Department officials that
it can't be done, because gasoline
taxes are collected from distributors
whose business spreads over numbers
of counties and is not confined to one.
The tax not being paid by the loca
filling station units, but by the distri-
butors who operate in many counties,
there is no way to find out how much
gas tax was paid by Alamance or Yad-
kin or any other county users.
