1958— A GOOD YEAR FOR FARMING
Since then, tree planting has become a very profitable business, especially with the shift in emphasis from planting on public to private lands. The best way of all is to keep your stand in a sparing state of growth by constant careful thinning.
WANTED— MORE LUMBER
Bark beetles, for example, will make quick work of any damaged wood. The best defense against these scoundrels is to transport the recoverable material to a mill, incinerate the unrecoverable material and spray the stand with benzene hexachloride solution.

STAR FARMER COLE /
Until he graduated from elementary school, this 22-year-old planter from Georgia lived on the outskirts of Jefferson, Georgia, with his vo-ag teacher father. Jim and Jackie have a one-half interest in the farm truck, plus one-fourth in the tractor, combine, planters, cultivators and wagon. Last year, McMullan's crops included 40 acres of corn, 8 acres of oats, 20 acres of millet, 25 acres of wheat and 53 acres of pasture.
Jackie's desire and Jim's goal is to give Cheryl the trappings of a "country childhood."

He recently used scrap metal to build a custom mechanical tree planter and planted 118,000 seedlings for community residents.

HOW TO SUCCEED
AT FARMING
Considerable work has been done with features such as staple length, face coverage and weaning weight. Following a few basic selection rules will pay big dividends and prevent disappointments, says USDA Animal Husbandman, C. Weaning and fleece weights are valued at 30 to 40 percent while traits such as twinning and number of lambs weaned.
Maps can be constructed that correct for such non-heritable factors, but farmers can also reduce their effect by selecting breeding stock from a group of singles or twins and early or late lambs.

Not only among the 350 customers served by the dairy, but also by farmers and agricultural managers who know the good agricultural practices used in the dairy enterprise. One of the outstanding features of Gaston's farming operation is the use of the milk route for direct sales to customers. Councilor Blackwell says, 'In my opinion, this is one of the few farming families.
Vo-ag teacher Ben Blackwell discusses with Dean some of the desirable traits of dairy cattle.
NITROGEN DIVISION
High yields make money; they also rob the soil of organic matter and plant food that needs to be replaced. The soil needs a lot of nitrogen, phosphorus and potash, significant amounts of sulfur and calcium, and smaller amounts of magnesium, iron and other elements. Even with clean harvested crops, tons of crop roots and residues are usually added to the soil.
Lots of nitrogen is needed to break down these raw crop residues into valuable soil humus.

Grandma in the Victorian era might have been absolutely delighted with clutter, but a good picture can't handle a lot of junk. And when you choose a subject, think about the story it has to tell – because it is. Practice with your camera until using it is second nature – and keep it with you.
And keep your vision fresh—the world is a wonderful place, full of wonderful pictures for the eyes that are youthful enough to find them.

Roy started his Major League career in a big way that first year, hitting at a .306 clip with 16 home runs and being named American League Rookie of the. Roy moved back to third base where he once played with the American Legion team. In a game against the Boston Red So.x on April 19, Roy hit his first home run of the year to tie the score.
Then the next afternoon in the bottom of the 10th inning against the same team, Roy hit a home run into the left field bleachers to win the game, if this is any indication of future performance, Roy should have a banner season this year.

Then-Senators manager Bucky Harris wasn't wrong in his trade, as Roy had been the big gun in the Senators offense since he joined the team. After playing mostly first base the first year with the Senators, Roy gradually worked his way back to left field. Principal Gates was to meet at five o'clock that afternoon the five boys who received the highest votes in the recent Boys' State election.

The rotund catcher made up for his mistake by smacking the first pitch past the outstretched glove of the diving Ciiffwood shortstop. He forced the first two sluggers to hit easy fly balls, and he blasted two straight smokers across the heart of the plate. Almost before anyone could sit back and relax, the car screeched to a halt in front of Principal Gates' huge house.
Vince looked down at his dirty, sweat-stained uniform and the glove he carried in his right hand.

Up close, you can easily identify these reptiles by the elliptical pupil in the eye instead of the round pupil. Treatments used to treat other snakebites are not effective for coral bites, so the person bitten should be taken to a doctor immediately. Bands of red, yellow and black colors completely encircle the coral's body, while the underside of the harmless kingfisher is hidden.
It is believed that the first coral snakes were brought to this country on banana stems from Cuba, but they are.

In general, these blind, one-inch-long, gentle creatures lead a well-organized communal life.
THERE'S A
When termites build their nests, the materials they use are small grains of soil or wood, which they cement with their secretions. They begin building without the benefit of any plan or design, and at first their structures resemble a hodgepodge. However, you can see them flying quickly after the first rain in spring.
The successful ones become the king and queen, and they usually remain the only royalty in the nest until they die.

Schulz Farmyard in Elkhorn, Wisconsin, to buy eggs, gaze in wonder at the chickens. When they arrived, we discovered they were made of red plastic and stuffed into the soft parts of the chickens' noses. They went on quickly and faintly, and were placed before their eyes just like the spectacles we wear, except that they do not fasten behind the ears."
The cattle wear bras, the chickens wear glasses, and don't be too surprised if you find the old gray mare in the future carrying a cane.
