Trees Should Be Kept Moist Before Planting Tree seedlings and transplants must be kept moist from the time thev leave the nursery un til they are planted. This warning to farmers who have ordered trees to be deliv ered in time for spring plant ing this year is sounded by Kail Loerch, University of Nebraska Extension forester. A good root system is essen tial to successful planting, and, unless care is taken, roots dry out rapidly and are injured, Lo erch observes. The trees should be watered Immediately when they arrive from the nursery and planted as soon as possible. Stored in a cool place and kept moist; however, they will remain in good con dition for several clays. Trees ihat must be kept for more than four or five days should be "heelcd-in" in moist soil. To do this: Dig an open V-shaped trench, Oivn the bundle of trees and spread the roots cait along one side of the trench. Fill in with soil so all roots are covered and drench with water. Stamp down the soil for a firm covering and keep moist until planting. On planting day, be sure to keep the roots covered with a damp material, such as wet moss, or keep them submerged in a bucket. Never allow the roots to be exposed to sun or wind even for an hour. can prescribe the effective S HOW ABOUT A LOW-COST LIFE INSURANCE PLAN MODERN WOODMEN'S NEW PREFERRED SECURITY PLAN It assures family security btxh now and in the fulure.
