Georgia Forestry
Story
SURVEY OF TIMBER RE¬
SOURCES COMPLETED
Of the 105,600 acres of land in
Dade county, 90,499 acres, or .86
per cent is in forest land. This
is disclosed in the final forestry
report published by the Agricul¬
tural and Industrial Develop¬
ment Board of Georgia and just
released to the public.
An analysis of the report made
for The Times by Frank J. Pul¬
len, who is State Forester for
the Seventh District, reveals that
about 58,899,000 board feet of saw
timber is presently growing in
the county’s forests, supplement¬
ed by some 240,000 cords of cord-
wood. While both figures include
both pine and hardwoods, pine
predominates by a substantial
margin.
The apprasal, by far the most
exacting and intensive ever
made of the state’s timber sit¬
uation, holds that, while Geor¬
gia’s forests constitute our great¬
est natural resource, ye are act¬
ually producing less than half
the number of trees of which the
land is capable.
The forestry committee of the
Agricultural and Industrial De¬
velopment Board, observing that
the terrific drain on the state’s
timber during the war decreased
the total timber supply less than
3 per cent, makes the following
six recommendations for the
general improvement of forestry
conditions in the state:
1. A statewide forest fire pro¬
tection system administered en¬
tirely by the State Department
of Forestry—“There is no great¬
er need in Georgia forestry to¬
day than the need for this state¬
wide protection.”
2. A statewide planting pro¬
gram—The supplementing of the
state’s tree nursery facilities un¬
til seedling production meets the
needs of the landowners.
3. Statewide managing and
marketing service—this service
now necessarily conducted on a
small scale by the State Depart¬
ment of Forestry, is recommend¬
ed for considerable expansion so
that small landowners may en¬
joy the same benefits of forest
ry knowledge as the large cor¬
porations which are capable of
employing professional foresters
4. An intensive educational
and research program—includ¬
ing the placing of forestry as a
course of required study in the
grade schools.
5. Statewide operation of pub¬
licly owned lands for the income
to be derived from the harvest¬
ing of ripe timber thereon-
6. A continued study of Geor¬
gia’s forestry problems—“A stu¬
dy of legislation needed to place
Georgia first in the nation in
forestry practice in needed now-’
The report was written by
Prof. B. F. Grant and Prof- A.
E. Patterson, both of the Forest¬
ry School of the University of
Georgia.
All that is best in the civili-
tion of today, is the fruit of
Christ’s appearance among men.
—Daniel Webster.

JTHE DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19. 1946.
Department Of
Pubic Health
A total of 40,036 persons in
Augusta and Richmond county
volunteered for free chest x-rays
and blood tests in a county-wide
syphilis-tuberculosis survey, Dr
T. F. Abercrombie, state health
director, announced recently.
Some 223,000 Georgians have
received free blood tests and
chest x-rays in four such mass¬
testing drives within a year, Dr.
Abercrombie remarked. Other
VD-TB surveys were held in Sa¬
vannah, Columbus and Macon.
The 45-day case-find projects,
which are accompanied by
newspaper advertising, radio an¬
nouncements, civic club partici¬
pation, posters and circulars en¬
list the aid of all citizens of the
community.
A 105-year-old Negro preacher,
a mayor, a medical society presi¬
dent, were among the crowds
waiting in lines at free blood test
and chest x-ray stations at Au¬
gusta. Results were mailed to
all persons tested.
Persons found to be infected
were told to see their private
doctor. If unable to do so, they
were reminded of free treatment
facilities available at Battey
State Hospital at Rome, or the
Alto Medical Center for the
treatment of venereal disease.
Dr. Abercrombie announced
that plans are under way to con¬
tinue the search for syphilis and
tuberculosis in other Georgia
