Y. Lenhart of the South Garolina Forest Service with headquarters in Florence. While increment borings indicate the planting might have been made in 1904 or 1900, the memory of the planter, Mr. W. G. Woodham, Bishopviile, R. F. D. 5, places the year at 1902 and gives the plantation ?n age of 28 years. According to Mr. Woodham he sowed the seeds from long leaf pine mast in a portion of an old field that bad proved unprofitable for agriculture. Placing four or five seeds in a hill with a spacing of 10 x 10'feetv splendid germination was secured and at 10 years the owner began gathering straw from the area, just a little less than an acre. Today according to the Forester ?. Jjjli living and While increased growth could have been secured through careful thinning the trees average 50 feet in height and approximately 8 1-2 inches in diameter. Trees vury in diameter from 5 to 12 1-2 inches and in height from 44 to 60 feet?108 trees or 33 per cent are over 9 inches in diameter or the height recommended for conservative turpentining. Over half of the trees are over 8 inches in diameter, breast high. Sub sequent efforts to move long leaf seedlings from the forest for transplanting were unsuccessful due to the long tap root of this species and to the unfavorable root system of forest grown trees. , Mr. Woodham depresses himself as being greatly pleased with his plantation and said, "I am sorry I did not do the same thing on all the poor lands of my farm." Mr. Woodham has been fairiy successful in keeping fire from his natural woods. 'l One year old long leaf pine seedlings, nm-sery grown stock with root system suitable for transplanting, may be secured from the South Carolina Forest Service at cost by writing to the State Forester, Columbia, South Carolina. An inspection of the area to be planted will be made at no cost to the property owner.

Keep Milk Clean Just keeping things fairly clean will not do when it comes to the handling of milk, cream and butter especially in hot weather. Everything must be absolutely clean if good prices are to be gotten for dairy products. Your county agent has taken from the Southern Agriculturist these two paragraphs concerning handling of milk in the good old summer time: High quality milk and milk products can be produced in the South in hot - weather. It is being done every summer in every Southern state. It is a simple matter but not so dead easy, yet it pays big and is the only thing to do. A soured, off-taste dairy (product is not fit for food and the market will not pay a profit-producing price for it. The milk as it flows from the cow is as pure In summer a? in winter, but the gertns it may pick up as soon as it is drawn develop many times as fast in summer as they do in winter. The tow's udder must J free from merd or other filth J milker's hands must be clean, ^9 bucket must be so clean that a druM of water tastes good out of it, strainer and vessel that the miBt jfl emptied into must be scrupuloslfl clean.
