FOREST CONSERVATION

timber problems which must be work
ed out To meet tho given conditions.
At the same time there are certain
lines of general policy which can
be- proftably adopted by many roads.
They are:
81. The use OF chemically treated
ties wherever possible.
"2 The use OF so-callcd inferior
woods. as for example black gum
and loblolly pine. for ties which will
reduce the drain on white oak, and
which is entirely practicable II the
tics are treated.
3 The purchase and management
of land bearing mature timber when
can be- used Immediately. and of sec
ond growth timber which viii meet
the needs OF the future. Such lands
II properly managed will insure a
perpetual supply of ties and lumber at
the cost of production.
Il The planting OF trees upon
Ubn-dFIltulluIdl ldiu ONh'u w Nh'
company. which does not now contain
sufficient young growth to produce n
timber crop
"t Cooperation with other roads
~ the adoption of standard specifi-
cations for ties and timber and for
the treatment OF them. Cooperation
with timbcrland owners and the states
in fire prevention. and in bringing
about conditions which will make the
practice of forestry profitable.
These are in substance the recon-
mcndations of the subcommittee on
forest supplies OF the American rail
way engineering and maintenance OF
way association. The adoption OF
these recommendation and the ap-
pointmcnt of technical men to carry
them out will. II seems to me. be
wise action for any railroad. The In
flucncc OF their general adoption
would be- far reaching and most
beneficial.
Il should be very glad 10 discuss
the matter more in detail with you
at your convenience, or 30 be OF use
IN any other way"
Responses which show much inter
est are being received. and II is pre-.
srmcd that definite action along the
lines mentioned will result.
