Now’s Time to

James of the Pierce County
Forestry Unit reported this week.
Ranger James urged all Pierce
County citizens desiring seedlings
for the 1954-55 planting season
to order them as soon as possi
ble.
“Many persons who delayed
in ordering their seedlings dur
ing the last planting season,” the
Ranger explained, “were disap
pointed to find the supply had
been exhausted by the time they
had placed their order. The
Commission, in order to show the
greatest fairness to all farmers
and landowners, releases its
seedlings on a ’’first come, first
served” basis. The men who or
der seedlings now will stand a
better chance to have their or
der- filled this planting season.”
Ranger James added that the
seedlings are produced at cost in
the Commission’s tour nurseries.
Seedling prices, including cost
of transporation to the Pierce
County Unit Headquarters, are
as follows;
Slash and longleaf pine are
3.25 per 1,000. (The cost is re
duced 25 cents per thousand if
the seedlings are picked up at
the Nursery.)
If you plan to plant pine seed
lings this fall contact Mr. Leckie,
Mr. Frisbie or Ranger James
and place your order at once.
