Plant Trees “Help your boys plant a willow tree and name it for him)" sug- gested Fildh Commissioner 13rry E. Weber, of Philipsburg, yester- day. He was discussing a pan for willow tree planting adopted by the Pennsylvania Board of Fish Com- missioners, at a recent meeting held at Harrisburg, for flood cone trol and beautification of Pennsyl« vania streams and other inland water bodles. The plan, sponsored by Commis sioner Weber, calls for the planting of willow cuttings on the banks of Pennsylvania streams and lakes for the four-fold purpose of fiood control, prevention of soll erosion beautification and fish foods, In the execution of this plan, civic bodies, Including the Boy Scout and Nature Study Clubs at the local schools have been con- tacted so that a successful planting of willow cuttings on the banks of nearby streams can be completed in the spring. This “Neighborhood Planting” plan of water conserva- tion and stream beautification as conceived by the Commissioners will be tried extensively In Centre County and in every section of the State. The Board of Fish Commis- sioners have instructed thelr war- dens to carry out an independent planting program in the spring as a pattern for local civic bodies to follow. Each warden throughout the state will plant fifty willow sprouts, The willow, because of its exten. sive root system of long, tough heavily matted roots, makes an ideal sponge for the holding back of surface water, The retention of this surface water by thie roots tends to keep the stream at a nor- nal flow and thus prevent the present extreme fluctuations of the water in the average streams. The thousands of matied willow roots also prevent the stream banks from eroding and in that way preserve the natural home of the flsh It was also pointed out thal from the esthetl point of view, the planting of willows with their graceful drooping h i add to the beauty vania landscape The willow has been selected the Pish Commission for because of L858 unusual ability Live pieces of willow planted under favorable condition will sprout with amazing sbilitly and grow to be large thrifty trees For best results fresh cu branches one-fourth to half inch in diameter and ten to twelve inches long should be made in the spring before the buds begin to gwell. They can be kept by covering with a moist layer of sand until time for planting, Cuttings from the current years growth and from the top branches of vigorous trees are best. Cuts are made with a sharp knife at an angle of forty- five degrees to avold on ng stem and loosening the bark must not be Injured Willow cuttings will thrive when planted where the walter table Is near the surface Sites with heavy sod, dense weeds and brush, and heavy shale should be avoided. To plant cuttings g& pointed bar one hall inch in diameter 1s used. The bar {s forded In the ground at a slight angle. The culling is insert. ed into the hole so that no more than tse bud extend above the ground. Cuttings planted pside down. usually die In having this proposed willow planting program adopted by the Board of Flash Commissioners Mr Weber has realized the fulflilment of an idea which for a number of vears he has advocated as one of the logical means of prevent floods and the of streams by the eros banks th i f Bud EXPECT BABY CHICKS TO BE PLENTIFUL THIS YEAR Baby chicks will be available In quantity this spring under the first three breeding stages of the Na- tional Poultry Improvement Plan, says Paul B. Zumbro, senior poul- try coordinator, United States De- partment of Agriculture. The De- partment is administering the im- provement program in cooperation with 42 States The threes different stages of breeding under which quantity buying will be possible are known as U 8 Approved, U, 8 Verified and U. 8. Certified. Chicks from these stages are suitable for grow- ing into pullets and cockerels for Iaying flocks or for meat produc tion Chick buyers who want breeding stock can get chicks produced un- der still higher stages of breeding. that is, the fourth or U, 8. Recard of Performance and the fifth or U. 8. Register of Merit breeding stages. A total of about seven million of. ficially eelected brejling dickens will be producing hatching eggs this spring under the five breed. ing stages of the national plan. In addition to the breeding of the chicks, Zumbro points out that puliorum controls also may be rep- resented, The chicks may come from U. 8. Pullorum Tested U. 8 Pullorum Passed, or U. 8, Pullor- um Clean breeding flocks. Chick buyers can get the names {of any of the approximately 1.500 hatcheries participating In the na- tional plan from the official State agencies, A list of these agencies ip the 42 cooperating States Is available from the United States ington, D. C, Since not all States {are doing the same breed-improve. iment nor the same pullorume-cons [trol work, the list also shows which | breeding and pullorum control ace tivities are In progress In each of | [the 42 Btates.
