The seed lings are being purchased from the State Forestry Commission’s nur sery near Wedgefield and will be distributed through the paper com pany’s 13 pulpwood yards in the State to those farmers whose ap plications have previously been approved by either their local Soil Conservation Service representa tives or County Agricultural Agents. This makes the second year that such a large-scale pine seedling distribution program has been con ducted by this Company for South Carolina landowners and larmers. Last year, however, a half-million less seedlings were purchased from the State Forestry Commis sion. The success of the previous free seedling program has brought about the increase in the quantity of seedlings being made available for free distribution this year. It is expected that actual dis tribution of the Seedlings will take place during the early part of January, 1955 ' at the Company’s woodyards located in or near the following towns and communities: Anderson, Walhalla, Greenwood, McjCormick, Rockton, Lancaster, Mullins, Orangeburg, Walterboro, Camden, Jonesville, Laurens, and Sharon. Before getting in touch with their County Agent or Soil Conservation Service representa tive, all interested landowners are urged to either go in person or write to the yard nearest their residence and secure the proper application forms, continued the announcement. In conclusion, the announce ment stated that this free seedling program is in addition to the State Forestry Commission’s program, through which interested persons may obtain pine seedlings at cost, through their District Forester’s office, SCS technician or local County Agent. Applications should be filed as soon as possible before supply is exhausted. : -i 1 MISS HUNTER, JUMPER ON SOPHOMORE HONOR ROLL Misses Margaret Ann Hunter of Newberry and Charles Jumper of Whitmire were two of the 76 stu dents at the University of South Carolina listed on the sophomore honor roll for the spring semester, accrding to announcement made by Henry O.
