Union Bag-Camp
Gives Data on
Bryan Service
During the 1958-59 tree plant
ing season, 50,000 pine seedlings
were given to local landowners in
Bryan County through the free
seedling distribution program of
Union Bag-Camp Paper Corpora
tion. This announcement was made
today by B. E. Allen, woodlands
manager of the Savannah plant.
According to Allen, “approxi
mately 750 seedlings are required
to convert an idle acre to full pro
ductivity. We of Union Bag-Camp
are pleased to be able to aid in the
reforesting of these idle acres, and
at the same time, provide for in
creased income and a stronger ec
onomy in this area. In years gone
by, many landowners had an in
different attitude toward their
timberland and the potential which
it would produce in the form of
future income. Our forests of yes
terday were destructively cut over,
burned time and again, with little
or no thought given to reforesta-
On so that we might adequately
supply the neds of the future.
Today the demand for forest
' products is the greatest in the
history of our country. Tomorrow
this demand will be even greater.
We are convinced that the present
day landowner recognizes this
challenge and is taking advantage
of every opportunity to keep his
tiqiberland green and growing —
and at the same time assure him
self of a higher standard of living.
The 50,00 seedlings distributed j
by Union-Bag Camp in Bryan Co
unty should plant 63 acres. We are
proud to be able to play a small
part in the development of our
most valuable natural resource —
our forests!”
Reward Offered
A $5.00 reward will be given for
the return of blaek-rimmed glasses
in good condition lost by Billy
Bland on Monday, March 2, on the
courthouse yard or in that section
of town. If found contact Mrs.
W. L. Bland, phone number 3-3755,
and collect reward.
