Kershaw county farmers can accomplish much to*; wards thinning their tiinbor. accord Iuk to \V. C. McCariey, county agqnt. i Mr. McCariey points out that In sup plying domestic timber needs such us^ fueiwood and tobacco wood, an op-, poriunlty is afforded most farmers to thiu their over-crowded woodlands through cutting those cull trees that are Interfering with the growth of the better .ones. When a landowner cuts the crooked, forked, rough, and defective tree# for home needs, he thins his timber and thereby makes possible iiuicaaed growth on the remaining s:< ud. Demonstrations show that thinned i iAbor frequently grows two to tliroo times faster than, unthinnod stand*, j Mr. McCariey offers the followingj "thinnig hints": Mark the trees for cutting and thinning. Supervise the thinning. Thin those stands that are overcrowded when the trees are large enough tor fueiwood. Gilt the llmby, crooked, foi ked, and defective trees that never would produce good sawlogs, poles, or piling. When in doubt whether a tree should be cut, it is best to let it stand, since it can always be cut in a later thinning. A good rule to follow is to thiu lightly and frequently. Pay strict attention to the trees that are left because they are the i ones that will produce the major part of the farm forest Income. Remember that cutting all trees on the land makes it impossible to obtalu another crop of timber for years to come, v Beautiful Margaret Huntley, 18, Pasadena Junior college co-ed, will reign'as Rose queen at the annual New Year's day Tournament of Roses at Pasadena, California. , I Mexico's ambassador to Washington, Dr. Francisco Castillo Najera,; may soon succeed Dr. Eduardo Hay as. j foreign minister of Mexico.
