MORE FOREST LANDS
Government Increases Its Hold
ings in North Carolina.
Ground Approved by National Forest
Reservation Commission for Pur-
chase by the United States
includes 1858 Acres

Northumberland just approved
by the national forest reservation com
mission for purchase by the govern
ment include 1856 acres in North
Carolina, of which IL tracts compris-
Ing 12.400 acres are situated in Bun
combe, Yancey and Mcdowell counties
In the Mt Mitchell purchase area
The remaining 1,155 acres are on the
Chattanooga river watershed In Macon
county and the Savannah purchase
area.
These lands are to be acquired in &C
cordance with the general policy I'M.
der which national forests OF good
size are being built up In the eastern
mountains, both north and south,
through successive purchases. Tracts
are bought within certain designated
areas, of which North Carolina has
eight The lands just approved by
the commission bring the acreage OF
the Mt. Mitchell purchase area up to
$4,000 acres and the acreage OF that
part OF the Savannah area lying In
North Carolina TO "a. 500 acres while
the total acreage In the state ap-
proved for purchase amounts TO 244.-
900 acres.
Most OF the lands approved for pur-
chase today are well timbered with
valuable woods such as poplar, oak
and chestnut. the largest tract which
contains over 1000 acres having a
stand OF sawtimber and other valuable
products OF more than 5000 feet per
acre.
The lands approved for acquisition
by the government for national forest
purposes In the east since the pur-
chase policy was inaugurated IN 1910
are now ,104 900 acres, having a pur-
chase price OF 35,560.000 About ST.
100000 of the original appropriation
remains available for further pur-
chases in the fiscal year 1915 The
lands favorably acted on to date in
clude 133,000 acres in the White noun
taIns OF New Hampshire, while OIL 900
acres are I'm various parts OF the
southern Appalachlans from Virginia
to Georgia. Nearly 100000 acres we're
approved for purchase during the
past year. at an average price OF 1895
per acre.
As areas OF suitable size are built
up by tho government through suc-
cessive purchases they are placed un-
der a system OF organized administra.
ton, with local officers OF the govern
ments forest service in charge The
first object Of administration is to
protect the forest against FIRE, for the

flow and increasing timber production.
There is, however. provision for all
forms OF use OF the forests not lncon-
sistent with their permanent welfare
as sources OF timber and water sup
plies. Some OF the areas are already
beginning TO yield revenue to the gov
eminent through the sale OF timber
which can be removed with benefit
