CCC PLANT OVER 300,000 TREES Work of Camp in Baldwin Conaty Highly Sncccatfnl. Terraces Are Laid oa Farm Lands. The CCC camp in Baldwin county during the brief time that it been located here has been of great benefit to the land owners of this section and the work of re fores tra- ticn and soil conservation has been highly successful. A report read before the Farmers Club on Saturday showed that 313.500 trees had beert planted Baldwin, Wilkinson and Jones county farms by the young m< the CCC camp. This is a part of the reforestry program and in most instances the trees have been plant ed on idle and unproductive acres. The report showed that 60,000 lob lolly pines, 148,500 slash pine, 90,- 000 long leaf pine trees and 15,000 locust trees have been planted. The trees are growing and will produce a fine yield in a short time. The loblolly and slash pine an lieved to be a future money crop for land owners of this section with the experiments in the production of newspaper from these trees be coming more and more a reality eacl day. T:i addition to the trees plant ed the CCC have planted 90,000 kudzu vines covering 81 acres. This vine is a soil building plant and ab solutely stops erosion. The CCC boys have also been en gaged in laying out terraces as a means of preventing soil erosion. 715,440 yards of terrace lines have been rim and 250,000 yards have actually been built The program which is now in pro gress under the supervision of the CCC is considered the most import ant from a soil conservation stand- t ever carried on here. Au thorities predict the program to bo cf untold benefit and point to the fact that the greatest benefits will be realized in years to come.
