farmers of eastern Oregon for
windbreak and shelterbelt plant
ings a number of specially se
lected species of seedling trees.
According to the superinten
dent of the nursery, Vern E.
McDaniel the seedlings are spe
cies known for their hardiness
and will grow in extremely dry
and cold climates. They also will
do well in hot localities and af
ter the first two or three sum
mers will require but little care.
In the group are Russian Mul
berry, Russian Olive, caragana
Chinese elm, black locust, green
ash, Scotch pine, Chinese arbor
vitae and pondorosa pine. They
also are good for shade trees for
use in pasture lands.
Seedlings, especially good for
the Willamette valley area is
the cork oak, which can be se
cured by Willamette valley res
idents for mass plantings.
Cost of the seedlings is $5 per
thousand plus postage charges
" Deadline for making applica
tion either directly to the state
forester at Salem or through
county agents is March 20. A re

HOLLY SAYS.:..
kwww;
S
With the sun shining, the flowers blooming and
spring in the air seems to be the signal for young
folk (and others, too) to think about being married.
The usual spring crop is beginning to show around
my place. Seems people talk those things over and
I'm sure glad they do because I seem to get more
than my share of the engagement ring business.
People have seemed to leorn, thru one source or
another, that I am sincere in my helpfulness to young
people embarking on the big ship. My advice, con
cerning the ring that is, is free and unbiased and is
honest in every respect even to the cost of losing a
sale, if necessary. You and the boy friend or you and
the girl friend should come in and talk it over, you'll
be glad you did. '
Mrs. Jackson, at one time, talked it over with me.
Now we have two fine boys and four saddle horses.

OF THE HARVEST
Some folks think that the first day of reaping
begins the harvest. .' sl
But the farmer knows that the real beginning
of the harvest is the first day of plowing.. Furrows
come before fields of golden grain. Without the
labors of Spring there can be no sheaves in the Fall.
The Greatest Teacher taught that. He said
His Truth was like seed . . . some of it might fall
on poor ground and die . . . but when it was sown
in rich, well-plowed soil it would bring a fruitful
harvest.
Every Sunday our Churches plow deep fur
rows in the good soil of humanity ... so that
God's Truth can take root and grow ... so that
the world may realize its long-cherished hope,
a harvest of peace and goodwill.
But remember, the harvest begins with the
plowing. Worship God in Church next Sunday!
