From The Granite State News
Volfeboro New Hampshire: We
of the older generation are too
prone to criticize the modern
genera 'ion especially the teen-
agers and their outlook and atti-
tude on life and way of doing
things We do not face reality and
The absolute changes in our way
of life that have swept rural New
'England in the last tweiity-five
years
Take the youngsters In gram-
inar school today as a fair exam-
rple Many of them have never
handled a stick of kindling or fire-
' wood Many of them have never
! stood in a cold room on a bitter
'winter morning waiting for the
fire in the stove to take hold
They cannot remember tife
without an electric washing ma-
chine an electric ice box a gas
or an oil stove and a television
in the house
They could identify a record
player that played only one rec-
ord at a time at the old 78 rpm
speed but they never have heard
one play
The) have oever ridden in a car
not equipped with a self starter
four wheel brakes electric lights
and a heater and radio
They have ve never walked to
school seen a cow milked seen
their Mther bake bread or helped
their 14'ither make ice cream
Thcy look upon jet planes color

lie also pointed out that Okla-
homa's fishing laws and regula-
tions are liberal
fish you catch may apply only to
game species including bass chan-
nel cat crappie blue cat and
trout
"And" Ware adds "Oklahoma's
fishing liense costs are among
the lowest in the nation A 10-day
non-resident costs only $225 or
a 12 month non-resident license
may be purchased for five ($5)
dollars"
'Nor does it make much differ-

you use rod and reel trotline or

all in Oklahoma
"And for no-game fish spear-
ing bow-and-arrow fishing under-
water spear fishing and even sein-
ing and netting are permitted
on some waters"
But Ware cautions don't leave
the impression that Oklahoma
is too lax in protecting her fish-
ing interests
"Prospective visitors should be
urged to obtain copies of Okla-
homa's fishing laws and regula-
tions before evercasting a line"
he says "This will help assure
them a pleasant fishing experi-

April Is Important Month for Gardeners
Time to Plant PruneGraft and Treat
be removed about three weeks
after -treatment to prevent injury
to the tree trunk
The old blackberry vines should
be removed from the row and the
young canes thinned to a stand
before growth starts this spring
One-half of the length of laterals
on healthy canes should be prun-
ed off in order to increase the
size of the berries and make
picking easier
The tomato is one of the most
important garden vegetables Se-
lect the best variety for your
location For most of the state the

Why don't we start a campaign
in Oklahoma to get more pecan
trees where we want them by
planting pecan nuts Ninety per-
cent of the pecans grown in this
state conme from trees where the
nuts were planted by some natu-
ral method Select well filled
sound native nuts saok them
in water for about 48 hours
Plant three or four of these nuts
per hill about four or five inches
deep
It is a good plan to drive stakes
so that you will know where the
nuts were planted After one sea-
sons growth select one tree It is

Sioux variety should give the best
performance For the western to
north western part of the state
the Westernrett is a good variety
Westerpred was developed by L
F Lockks Southern Great Plains
Experiment Station Woodward
Oklahoma It was chosen for fruit
production under adverse climatic
conditions The fruit may sunburn
in lowcr altitudes southeast of
Woodward
Transplanting tomatees is an
miportant gardening activity Se-
lect well developed sturdy plants
that have already accustomed to
outside conditions Wait until the
danger of frost is passed or use
hot caps when transplanting Use
a starter solution to encourage
rapid root growth Use DDT in
the starter to help control the
cutworms Use one or two table-
spoons of commercial fertilizer
mixed in the soil for each plant
at transplanting time In exposed
areas some wind protection until
the plant recovers from the shock
of transplanting is usually very
helpful
As soon as sap begins to flow
in the young pecan trees they
may be bark grafted to improve
varieties Usually the later part
of April and early May are the
best times to change the variety
of the young native trees to one
of known performance
