Nebraska's twenty-second annual
Livestock Feeders day held at Ag

1,400 men and women from
throughout the state. According
to officials of the affair it was one
of the most successful sessions of
the group ever held on the campus.
James E. Poole, noted market
prophet and contributor, was the
chief speaker for the closing after
noon program. He termed the hog
market as "lousy", said the sheep
market would take care of itself,
and spoke optimistically of the cat
tle market. He stated that the best
cattle on the Chicago market were
from the Cornhusker state.
The morning program included

Results of experiments show that
atlas yields were 163 percent high

though atlas has some noticeable
disadvantages, the experiments
brought out that atlas produced a
greater amount of gain per acre

since the yield was so much higher
per acre it was probably much
cheaper in the long run.
"You landscape you front yard

Tree Planting Exercises Scheduled
For Arbor Day Were First Observed
In Swiss Village in Fifth Century
Altlio Arbor Day for 1!i:!4 occurs on Monday, April )', ami
is a state holiday, the first oliser ance of trot- planting took
place in an old Swiss village in nlmut the fifth century accord
ing to a pamphlet, issued by the I'nited States department of
agriculture in June, 1!1'J:1. The record was obtained from an old
Swiss chronicle. O
In the fifth century the little
Swiss village determined to have
an oak grove in the public square.
A day was set and the entire com
munity journeyed to the woods.
There they dug up oak saplings
and brought them to the village
square, where they were planted.
All children who took part received
a wheaten roll as a reward. The
grown up people had a feast and
frolic. For many years the tree
planting ceremony took place with
a celebration always following the
observance.
Morton Arbor Day Founder.
In the United States Arbor Day
was first observed in "treeless Ne
braska" by the Hon. J. Sterling
Morton, then a member of the
state board of agriculture, and
later United States secretary of
agriculture. At the meeting of the
state board of agriculture for Ne
braska held at Lincoln, Jan. 4,
1S72, he introduced a resolution
"that Wednesday, the 10th day of
April, 1872, be especially set apart
and consecrated to tree planting

tn the state of Nebraska." The
resolution was adopted and wide
publicity was given to the plan.
Over a million trees were planted
on that first Arbor Day.
Governor Furnas of Nebraska,
in 1874, by public proclamation net
aside April 3rd, as Arbor Day. In
1885 the state legislature passed
an act designing the birthday of
Mr. Morton, April 22, as the date
of Arbor Day and making it a
legal holiday. Since that date
fall on Sunday this year, observ
ance is postponed a day.
Nearly a billion trees have been
planted in the state since the plan
was first adopted. It is estimated
that more than 700.000 acres have
been planted in Nebraska.
The state is so much identified
with tree raising that on April 4,
1B05, the legislature passed a reso
lution that the state be popularly
known as "The Planter's State."
More than half of the states
have enacted a law for the observ
ance of Arbor Day. In others it's
held by proclamation of the gov
ernor. In Nebraska and Rhode
Island the day has been made a
public holiday.

conditions make it favorable is the
opinion of Professor J. E. Weaver
of the Botany department in re
gard to the observance of Arbor
Day in Nebraska.
'The- evnerfation of crowing a
tree for every stump is beyond a
: a nvawiA Qtata like
possibility in a
Nebraska," stated Mr. weaver.
In the opinion of Professor
Weaver, the ideal place to grow
trees would be in parks where they
j are protected by each other, for
1 the tree is an organism inn
1 riates with others of its kind. He
I believes that grasses that grow to
the base of a building exhibit a
greater magnificence than trees
"A tree surrounded by hot dry
winds works against the laws of
nature." he said.
Professor Weaver thinks it an
error to grow a grove out of a
rattlP country. "That it's a hard
struggle for a tree to obtain suffi-
cient water is illustrated by a burr
oak tree." he stated. "A fully
rrown tree thirty to thirty-five
feet tall sends roots out in all di-
rections from the base of the trunk
and extends fifteen feet deep in
order to get enough water. Even
saplings of elm, Cottonwood, ash.
and hickory have roots ten to fif
teen feet deep."

fictitious one Involving a promise

of the contributions appearing in
the magazine were written by Ne
