United state* Koreai Service, according to loseph C. Kircher of Atlanta, (Jeor 'In. Souilu'i'ti regional forester Tor the I'nited states. Nil Kircher said that his organism*: Hon had used iS.hoo.oou seedlings, most of them longleaf pine and slash pine, for reforestation from Decern -1 ])ear, and the Forest Service look full advantage of j|. six or suveu years nay elapse before Nature again plover's ! Mich a bountiful suppfy of seed Ap,i proximatajjj. 15.000,000 gallons of wa- j " r are^H annually t(V Irrigate the seed bed~t the Stuart Nursery, t?m> i of tlie largest tree nurseries lu the world. All of the tree planting work was carried on with CCC labor On national-forest land. Mr. Kircher st Id Louisiana was the largest benefactor from tbe Federal reforustratiou program A total of 21.661,500 trees Were planted In that state on the cut over lands of the Kisatchie National Forest. Thousands of acres or these denuded lands have been acquired by the Government In the last few years for addition to the Kisatchie National forest. The first job facing the Federal foresters was to get trees growing again as quickly as possible 011 these barren areas. Many tracts have been stripped so cleun that the pine belt of the South is often called Djxie.s no-man's-land, especially sections that fire has ravaged and m thing is left but a desolate expanse or blackened stumps. Missisippi ranked next to Louisiana in benefits from the Federal treepla nt ing program with a total of llj.KXl.4no trees for her share. Three her national forests?Hienviile, j HoH> Springs ami DeSoto participated in ihe program which involved 22,-1 ?00 acres. Most of the trees were pine, but some black locust was used | on tlie Holly Springs National Forest' where a serious problem in erosion ; control exists. A large reforestratlon program was I carrb-d 011 in Texas. -Kt-gjon Forester I Kin-liner said. There U.ij-.o.uue f young trees were planted on the cutover lands of tlie Angelina. Davie! Crockett. Sabine and Sam Houston "National., Forests. A total Of l,!'3n.:i0ii young trees I were planted 011 tlie Ozark and Ouachita National Forests of Arkansas, two of the most profitable timber producing areas in the entire Federal forest system. South Carolina, where the Forest Service has recently purchased large tracts of submarginal land, participated in the reforestratlon program to the extent of 500.000 seedlings which were used on the South Carolina National Forest. A total of 114,000 seedlings were planted 011 the Pis* gah National Forest in North Carolina and 16,800 011 the Cherokee in Tennessee. An unusual feature of the reforestation program, Mr. Kircher said, was [the planting of 531.000 tropical seedlings 011 800 acres In the Caribbean I National Forest in Puerto Rico, the :only national forest outside the contlnetal limits of the United States. This forest is administered by Mr. Kircher [from his headquarters in Atlanta. | The reforestation project in Pourto Rico was car.led on with seedlings propagated in nurseries on the island and is of outstanding economic Importance because the 'timber supply of Puerto Rico is nearlng exhaustion except for the trees in the national and Insular forests. Labor for I the project was supplied by the Puerto Rican CCC boys, 2,400 of whom are assigned to the United States Forest Service The Weather Forecast The following forecast for the weather was made Thursday: -Occasional showers tonighl and Friday; cooler tonight and in south portion Friday."
