review no. 3
The Norwegian colonial garden union
has had a conference in Oslo
Norway now has twenty seven colonial gardens
and 2450 parcels, distributed between fourteen towns
All of the country's colonial garden leagues
are affiliated with the union.
In the fight for Matauking (food programme),
colonial gardens plays a very important role.
A thousand boys and girls aged 10 to 21 years
from all of Norway were gathered in Drammen,
when NS' youth movement's summer games
were opened
by amongst others Minister Lunde,
Labor Service's chief, General Frølich Hanssen,
and county adm. Hundseid on the honorary stand.
In his opening speech, acting minister,
general secretary Fuglesand mentioned
that sports in the nation's service is our goal.
Our forefathers' desire for sports,
was always a means of gaining proficiency
for the great tasks in our people's history.
Propaganda leader --- Knudsen
made the Oath of sports.
Through sports we shall be strengthened for the fight,
for the leader, the people, and the homeland.
Minister Lunde has held a speech on Torpa in
Oppland county, where he pointed out the fact
that this is the greatest turn in times,
since the Migration Period.
The minister elaborated in on the freedom fight
that the Germanic states are leading,
spearheaded by Germany,
to secure the future of Europe,
and thereby for all times,
to put an end to the Soviet threat in the East.
Minister Lunde made a thorough case
with all those who had lead the country to the point
that 9. April was unavoidable.
He underscored,
that we must build on that what is Norwegian
and that what is national,
and on the rich cultural values
that our forefathers has created before us.
The young children's country-stay,
the day colony on Ekeberg,
celebrate this year its 30th anniversary.
Unfortunately there are many Oslo-children
that does not get a continous vacation countryside,
and for these, the trips to Ekeberg
are the great adventures of the summer
that they look forward to with longing and expectation.
Wool products are getting qualitively better and better,
and now stands equally with the best of the abroad.
The Røros produce is 100% Norwegian.
The pictures are from the factory on Røros,
and we follow the process of the wool,
from it is sorted and washed,
until it goes through the different carding
and spinning machines, and is woven.
The finished fabric is this autumn's
most fashionable coats.
In a modern forestry
it is all about ensuring regrowth
for the renewal of the forest, also by artificial means.
The most important forest cultivation work
is sowing, and planting.
But first, the old forest must be cut
to provide light for the forest floor.
They prepare youthification surfaces, as it is called.
These must be cleared for bushes and scrubs
before the cultivation work itself can be initiated.
Pine forest is spread by sowing,
fir forest by planting.
The sowing is conducted on sowing patches
in the upper layer.
Some seeds are sprinkled with the sow-bottle,
and the patch is tramped afterwords.
Some fertilizing encourages the growth in the first years.
Planting of firs are preferably done with 4 year plants.
Formerly they planted mostly in holes
against plumb wall.
A more modern method is the so called
flat-root planting.
Plant forest.
A forest rich Norway is a prettier and richer Norway.
