Government Plans Expanded Nursery Program Here
The erosion service seeks control of the abandoned municipal airport to run a nursery on 60 acres in order to raise 50 million trees for erosion control. It already leases 20 acres and plans expansion to 80 acres by 1938 if approved by the common council. Labor is deployed on seed beds and transplanting.
