Airs, settle I I (and Untillable Farms of State Institutions Turned Into Profitable Timber Land Land which is not valuablo for the planting of crops or for dairy purposes at State institutions under the suiervision of tho state department of welfare is being turned to profitable timber land by the planting of hundreds of thousands of forest treo seedlings, according to a report made public today by Mrs. K. S. 11.

Mi-Cauley, state secretary of welfure. The report submitted by R. Bruce Dunlup. agriculturist of the department, indicates that thero ure now 305,000 forest tree so-'dlings growing on the untillable land of tho state Institutions. Nearly 150,000 more seedlings have been tor 1930 planting at tho institutions.

Land which erodes easily and which cannot be usod for pasluri? is chosen for tho planting of th seedlings. Mrs. McCauley -aid. t.he said this timber land which will undoubtedly prove valuable to tho state in tho future is receiving as much care ns the tillable acres on the farm's. In many places on tho farms undesirable trees arc leiiig replaced wltlj the better and thjiming in already overcrowded ureas Is receiving; careful attention.

The reiKirt shows that the TollC Si'nte school leads other state institutions with 150,000 tree seedlings planted. With tho seedlings which have been requested from tho department of forests and waters for spring planting, more than half a.hilllkui seedlings will be growing in the institutions by next fall. In some cases Mis. McCauley said that unprofitable land at the state in- stations which would ordinarily be waste land is now yielding profit to 1he institutions and tho state by producing enough lumber to satisfy pres-. ent needs as they arise.
