Ernest Johnson has been cutt- By JOHN NEWMAN I learned last night that Al Fetsch was a little short handed at the dance Saturday night It seems the door across from the ticket booth was forever coming unhooked. Those entering there meant to pay it Just slipped their mind after they were in unless someone showed them personal consideration by follow ing them around the hall while tho tripri tn anDear to have been there all evening. If It hadn't been for a few good Wranglers who showed up Just when they did Al would have had to close the doors to give that personal consideration. Even inougn n Hnpsn't start until past our bed time, it Is only a few evenings and it will be all over ior anoin er vpar Wo mav not feel it Is worth it, but take another look, maybe we are letting oia age move in prematurely. Another thing that is staring us in the face we aont nave a manager at the fair grounds this year. Ray had things in shape beforhand last year and if the fair board can't get nmv to take It again this year we. are on our own. As far as the the barns and corrals are con cerned. The fair board will fur nish materials for mangers and such repairs as are needed. We also need a dozer to level off along the north side of the barn so that manger can be repaired and extended. For the large man ger in the corral we need men, posthole diggers, hammers and saws. From thp way things look now, if the tence on me noun side of the creek needs fixing it win he ud to us to fix it since it isn't likely the school directors will crawl out on the ena 01 a limh far enoueh to sanction spending school money to build on ground they could not get a clear title to. I understand that should the fair fail, the land re verts back to the donor or their heirs. If the present growing nains don't kill it. it may have need for that ground in the fu ture. It means another Job, but not much of one if enough turn out. We can sneak by this year on that, but let's all be at our next meeting Aug 5 so we can get things organized and ready. It is all new to me so I am count ing on everyone of you. One thing more. We are sup posed to put on the dressup par ade while the chamber of com merce puts on the coronation, so let's get those .white shirts out, get the buttons sewed on, em blems ready to snap on, the old white hat dusted off or start looking for a new one. Since the merchants committee Is taking on the advertising this year we might need a new one. Don't foreet Aue 5 at 8 pm. Time is fleeting don't let it pass you by. How to Raise Tree Seedlings at Home Hold in Circular Growing forest tree seedlings in a home nursery is a good deal like growing garden pianis ior transplanting, according to a new circular published by the Oregon State college extension service. In general, though you can buy tree seedlings cheaper than you can raise them, the circular advises. Raising coniferous trees from seed is an exacting Job that requires special knowledge and some special equipment, it is pointed out. However, growing seedlings at home does ge tree seedlings when they're not available else where, and you can also grow tree species not commonly offer ed for sale. You can also use your homegrown trees for any purpose you wish, the circular adds. State laws In general forbid the use of state-federal nursery seed lings for anything but forestat Ion, Christmas trees, windbreaks, and other conservation uses, it is explained. State-federal seed lings can't be planted within in corporated city limits, resold with roots attached, or used for ornamental purposes. The new circular, titled "rais ing Forest Tree Seedlings at Home", tells with the help of many illustrations how to grow tree seedlings In small nurseries. Suggestions are given on locat ion of the nursery, seedbed prep aration and planting methods, seedling culture; ana transplant in mnimii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimi lng and planting. Sources of ad ditional information are aiso in dicated. The circular was compiled by Charles R Ross, OSC extension farm forestry specialist, from In formation furnished by a number of private and government sourc es Oregon residents can get a copy from their county exten sion office, or from the OSC bul letin clerk in Corvallls.
