THE SALE OF
A LIFETIME
Nahunta, Ga. — Consider
our land. Consider it well.
The future of Brantley
County, the future of Georgia,
prosperity and growth is de
pendent on increasing, preser
ving and maintaining the bas
ic resources: soil...water...trees
...and other allied factors.
To maintain and increase
these basic resources, the util
ization requinements of these
resources will have to be pro
jected. People will determine
these requirements. And, sta
tistics show that more people
are going to be around.
Even with a partial increase,
the soil and water and timber
resources will be strained.
How much they will be strain
ed will be determined by our
flexibility in making transi
tions and formulating pro
grams with the supply and de
mand.
Consider our land. Consider
it well.
In Georgia, pulpwood pro
duction will need to increase j
from the 7 million cords in 19- |
68 to 12 million cords by 1985 !
and 15 million cords at the I
turn of the century. Projected i
I demand requirements indicate
a need for two billion board
feet of sawtimber against th?
present one billion board
feet. Our present growth rate
is approximately point six
cords per acre per year. Ccme
the 21st century or before, we
need to be growing one cord

than the projected growth, as
suming recent levels of forest
management. Timber stand
improvement, today, appears
to represent the major techni- [
cal opportunity for improving |
the timber supply situation I
over the next few decades.

An appraisal of the Stat;’. .
timber situation indicates th . [
supplies of timber ov r 1h
next two or three decad:s
could support a substantial ex
pansion of markets for timb :
products. The latest industry
directory lists 14 wood-using
industries in Brantley Cour/y
They manufacture cabinets,
chips, furniture, dressed and
green lumber and paTcfs.
Pine, poplar, oak, gum, e’m
hickory and maple are tree
utilized in the production of
the wood products.
Consider our land. Cons'd r
it well.
For the future, we must b'
prepared for any eventuality.
Strong markets and new d"
velopemnts will result only
from a sound basis of continu
ed raw material.
If the forests are wisely
managed it w'll result in th"
conservation cf soil and water
resources. Trees are the bs f
and most important p°rmanent
■‘•ab lizer of th" soil. Combin'd
they are the basis to sound
v"*-r management. Trees not
onlv conserve water in pre
venting rapid run-off and re
lated functions, but also in
controlling pollution. Pollution
is related to soil erosion and
all factors that disturb the
soil, roads, ditches, land clear
ing and others.

it well.
