Tree Planting
Interest Grows
Interest in tree planting has
mounted as a result of the winter
storms that have produced signi
icant evidence of the need for pro
motion in various places.
Now is an excellent time to take
dock of your tree planting needs
'or if you find that snow is block
ng a road, feed lot or your farm
yard, consider how it might be pre
sented by a well located shelter
belt or wind break.
Elmer Juracek is one of the Holt
soil and Water Conservation Dis
tict cooperators who three years
igo decided that a new shelter belt
could eliminate the need for snow
removal on the road just north of
nis place. He stated this week thai
wen though the trees are only three
years old. the corner had been free
if snow this winter and he had
not had to spend time opening the
road at that location.
Soil Conservation Service techni
cians are available to help you in
planning your needs for any type
>f tree planting and trees are avail
able either through the local Soil
and Water Conservation District of
fice or the Clarke-McNary Forestry
Project.

143 Businesses
Listed In O'Neill
Statistics released today by
Howard P. Wade, district manager
of the Omaha office of Dun Brad
street, Inc., taken from a physical
count of names in the Dun & Brad
street Reference book for Janu
ary, 1960. shows a total of 243
manufacturers, wholesalers, and
retailers in O'Neill.
The Dun & Bradstreet Reference
Book lists all manufacturers, whole
salers, and retailers who seek or
grant commercial credit. It does
not include some of the service

beauty and barber shops, security
dealers and real estate brokers.

This column will be made up
chiefly of your ideas, recipes,
household hints and any short cuts
you may send to me. There are
those clever sayings of small chil
dren you wish to pass on to ■ i
our readers. Maybe you have an
interesting game or idea for (
parties.
With gardening and house clean- 1
ing chores soon to begin, you may
know of some little tricks which I
may make it a might easier for !
someone else. j \
Its a neighborly gesture for all
of us to exchange our ideas over |
the backyard fence, so to speak,
and that' is what I would like to
see this column become a neigh- ,
borly get-together each week.
Then there will be the new ideas | I
and suggestions put out by our
various home economic depart- |

ideas will he passed on to you j
through this column and you may
be able to make use of them in (
your every day work.

no name at all.

Conservation Essay
Printed below is one of the win
ning conservation Essays. It was
written by Keith Krugman of Dist
rict 17.
P ASTI'RE CONSERVATION
In my soil conservation work in
4-H during the past years I have, I
found it very interesting and edu
cational. I have found how to
identify many different grasses
and legumes. Also which grasses 1
are the best to cover the ground
so there would be less or no ero-,
sion in my pasture.
I also learned that there are j
many kinds of erosion that take j
place in a pasture, like blow outs I
and over flow. j
Blow outs are sometimes caused j
hy cattle being allowed to graze
in one place for an unlimited time
so the grass is killed out. Then
wind is allowed to blow the sand
away which causes a large hole,
that will continue to get larger if
it is not taken care of immediately.
The cattle can be drawn to dif
ferent parts of the pasture by mov
ing the salt box to that place.
You can also divide pastures by
putting a fence through it so you
can put the cattle in one part for
a while. The cattle eat the grass
on one side while the grass on the
other side is having a rest. This
will also, w'here it is necessary to
have two wind mills, stop the cat
tle from trailing betwnen the mills
which will cause wind erosion.
Prairie dogs will also cause
blow outs. They cause them by
digging holes in the ground and
killing the grass around the holes |
which will allow the wind to cause
a blow out. | j
Over flow is when wrater runs j
over the soil and stands there part [ j
of the year. When water stands on 1
the soil it will kill the grass so j
it is necessary to have a drainage '
ditch In this ditch grasses tha
should he planted are Northen
Cordgrass and Ree*
In order to keep a pasture it
good condition we must take hat
and lea%e half We must not tak<
niore than half of the grass he
cause the good grasses will sooi
die out and the poorer grasses wil
take over. Then in order to gel
the {vesture l>ack into good range
: you possibly has e to spray the
t weeds. do mechanical treatment,
i or even defer for rsvo or more
(years. To deter is to take the cat
i tie out of the pasture entirely”.
<j This wtll alio" the good grasses
> to go to seed. In another year the
good grasses will s«xsn start to
| crowd salt the podfer glasses
