Of much interest to wide cir
Gle of friends is the announce
ment of the marriage of Miss

Mr.. Luke sang, Il Love You Tru-
ly'' and 20 Promise Me-.
The bride and groom entered
together to the strains of the bri-
dial chorus, 'Lohengrin". Before
an altar decorated in green and
white with tall candles on each
side. Rev. R. H. Stone read the
announcement of the marriage of
Miss Brown and Mr.. Shoemaker
which took place at 1ndepen-
dence, Va, September 26, but
which had not been revealed be-
fore. At the close of the ceremony
Mrs. Stone used Mendelssohn's
march as the occasional.
The bride who is an attractive
brunette wore a travel suit of
black with touches of white.
Her flowers were gardenias
and lilies-of-the-valley. Imme-
diately after the ceremony the
couple left for a short wedding
trip through Western North
Carolina, after which they will
be at home in West jefferson.

TakingOrders Now
For Seeding Trees

Orders are now being placed
for Seeding trees to be set on
idle or thin, eroded land.
One man has already taken ad-
vantage of the new provision in
the 1910 Agricultural Conserva-
ton Program which offers any
farm payment of $4,000 to be
earned only by setting trees.
This man placed an order for
five thousand seedlings. He says
he expects to set the four acres
necessary to earn that $4,000 and
then set an additional thousand
trees.
Forestry nurseries may be
limited on trees next spring. It
might pay to place your order
now and ask that the trees be
shipped when you wish to set
them, C. J. Rich states. Orders
may be placed to the State Forest
Nurseries through the county ag-
ent'S office.
why not let some of those
idle, thin, CALLED acres be grow
ing trees?" he asks.
Remember any farm can earn
$4,000 in addition to its regular
soil building allowance. This $50
can be earned only by setting
trees.
THE seedlings cost $500 to
$500 per thousand A thousand
will set an acre-spaced six feet
apart in rows seven feet apart.
1.-TWO men should set an acre
in from one to two days. Each
acre set counts $3.50 towards the
$4,000. This is sufficient to meet
the cost of trees and labor. Let's
don't miss this opportunity to
start some trees growing on our
worn out hills.
