Excerpt from Plains Forester, Vol. 4: June, 1939 Trucks are used to transport trees from.the nursery to the distri bution center. Although the trees are given to the farmers for shelterbelt planting, the packing and trucking is an extra service, for which the farme ers pay at the rate of five cents per hundred trees delivered. An.effort is made to select distribution centers at farms where a shelterbelt is to be planted, or where one has been planted, or where one has been planted and replacements or an enlargement is to be made. This makes it possible to show, by means of a planting demonstration under typical field condi tions, how a tree should be planted, the correct Spacing and distribution of Species, and the care which should be given to the shelterbelt after planting. Farmers obtaining trees for shelterbelts sign an agreement with the Conservation Department that the trees will be promptly planted, and that they will be given all reasonable protection against destruction by fire, livestock, or weeds due to lack of cultivation.
