Tree planting is not usually carried on after the last day of February, therefore, it is highly desirable that persons desiring to obtain and plant trees during the present planting season place their orders with the district foresters at Aiken, Spartanburg, Camden, Florence and Walterboro, or with the State Forester’s office at Co lumbia without further delay. Persons wishing to plant in order to secure A. A. A. Benefit Payments for soil conservation could start their planting Decem ber 1, 1940, and plant any' time prior to November 30, 1941. How ever, inasmuch as the planting season usually terminates at the end of February they would of necessity have to plant between December-!, 1940, and March, 1941. • Planting weather has been al most ideal thus far but if we run into some extended freezing or cold rainy weather such as we had last winter the number of avail able planting days will be found reduted. This being the case the State Forester advises to order •seedlings at once and plant them at the earliest opportunity. 7 xx WPA Employing 12,798 On Defense In South Carolina Lawrence M. Pinckney, state WPA administrator, Columbia, said yesterday that 12,798 WPA employees are working on national defense projects in South Carolina. This civilian army, considerably larger than the entire 1940 popu lation of the city of Orangeburg, comprises 12,356 workers on WPA- operated projects and 442 workers on projects operated by the army or the navy with WPA funds. Numerous buildings on army and navy reservations, armories, airports, and road projects along the strategic routes designated by the war department as of military importance are, being rushed by the WPA in this state. Included also, are more than 500 trainees on the national de fense vocational training program situated in more than 20 different locations throughout the state. These WPA workers are preparing for employment in defense indus tries. More than 100 other former trainees on this program are known to have secured private employment as a result of this training. -TXT- i/ CHuncii ! 4 '-OINCIMINK PLUM BRANCH GROUP OF BAPTIST CHURCHES.
