The material gone over at each
meeting will be very similar and
anyone interested can attend any
of the meetings with the assurance
that a rather complete picture will
be presented at that meeting.
A series of three meetings on
the subject of farm management
is scheduled for three commun-
titles in Stearns through the coun-
ty agents office at st. Cloud. For
the first of these meetings to be
held at Richmond, J. B, McNulty,
extension specialist in farm man.
agement at University Farm, will
be present. The farm management
program in Stearns county will be
covered in three meetings with the
later meetings being held in the
same communities as the first SER
les is scheduled for. The first of
these meetings will be held as fol
lows:
January 23-1:30 p. Mold Viii
lage Hall, Richmond.
February 200 p. m.-Opera
House, Belgrade.
February $3.50 p. m.-Commun-
ity Room, Public School, Albany.
The later meetings coming later
in the month of February will be
announced in the near future. The
subject matter to be taken up at
the above series of meetings will
center largely around crop rota-
tons and the choice of crops nee
essary to make the greatest pos
sible returns from the farming ven
ture. Other farm management
practices will be covered at the
later meetings. Advance enroll
ments have been requested by the
county agents office for the Rich
mond meeting but no advance en-
rollments are being requested fol
the other meetings on February
and 8. Attendance at any of the
three meetings is open to anyone
Under the 1910 AAA program s
special provision is provided for the
first time to encourage the plant
ing of farm windbreaks or forest
trees. A special payment up to S3(
will be paid on each and every
farm over and above the regular
AAA payments where tree planting
provisions are carried out to carr
that money. To meet this provision
it will be necessary to earn 20 units
of soil building practices for tree
planting work. For the planting OF
a farm windbreak it is necessary
to have at least 80 trees per acre
For forest trees or farm woodlo'
planting $50 or more trees per acre
are necessary. A wide range Is
given in the choice of trees for this
purpose. In either of the above
two cases it is possible to earn
units of soil building practice and
of course, with each unit paying
$3.50 the tree planting provision
makes possible the earning of S7.5C
per acre. To earn the full $50 II
would require the planting of -four
acres of new trees. Many farmers
of the county however, have plant
ed windbreaks in times gone by
since 1886. For the care and the
cultivation Of windbreaks planted
since 1886 two units per acre will
be paid on soil building practices to
apply on this $50 limit.
