The number has been changed from 5,000 to 3,000 by legislative act E. B. Price, assistant state for ester, said that seedling orders were pouring in and that it is al ways a good idea for any one de siring seedlings to get his order in early, as the seedings are always distributed on a “find come, first served basis.” Mr. Price explained that any landowner in the state is entitled to 3,000 seedings free of charge, if they are picked up at the For estry Commission’s Nursery at Wedgefield. If they are shipped to the landowner, there will be a charge of 50c per thousand seed lings. If a landowner desires more than 3,000 seedlings, there is a charge of $2.50 per thousand seed lings if they are picked up at the nursery, or $3 per thousand if they are snipped. “If you want to and it will be possible for one for as 1 you want to plant some seedlings this fall or winter, you should contact either vour Coun- y Agent, Members of the Soil i Conservation Service, your Coun- y Ranger, your District Foresters : n Aiken, Camden, Florence, to subscribe for as long, two years at the present rale.
