Show Forestry Supplies Tres In Earliest Orders Fifteen orders amounting to 5775 trees, have been filled In the past few weeks by the forestry nursery of Utah State Agricultural Agricul-tural College, announces Professor Profes-sor J. Whitney Floyd, forester of the Utah extension service. February 1, 3783 order blanks were sent out to farmers of the state of Utah. Fifteen orders were filled from these order blanks. Eleven counties were represented represent-ed in the orders. The counties are Box Elder, Carbon, Salt Lake, Davis, Duchesne, Iron, Juab, Millard, Sanpete, Sevier and Weber, states Professor Floyd. Last year at this time, only five orders had been filled, and order blanks had been distribut- , ed to farmers at the same time. Extensionist Floyd emphasizes I the importance of ordering early, as all orders will be filled on the basis of priority, and late requests re-quests may not obtain the specific speci-fic trees desired. Every year, the forestry nursery runs out of certain species of trees, declares the specialist. Species available from the 150,-000 150,-000 individual trees originally listed include: softwoods, the Eastern Red Cedar, Ponderosa Pine and Blue Spruce. Hard- Elm, Black Locust, Honey Locust, Russian Olive, Siberian Pea Tree, Black Walnut, Golden Willow and Lombardy Poplar. |
