Forest Problems of South Discus
ed by Chief Forester

In an address before the South
crn Forestry Congress at Ashe-
vile on July II, Henry S. Graves,
Chief Forester of the United Stat
es, emphasized the Importance of
the timber supply of the South
and pointed out methods by which
it may be perpetuated.
Nowhere in the whole United
States" said Mr.. Graves, "can
the naval stores industry or the
protection of hardwood timber be
carried on with the same natural
and economic advantages as in
the Southeast. Forests occupy
more than half the total land area
of the. South. Southern pine is the
principal softwood used in fully
two-thirds of the country east of
the plains. Backed by supply of
some 325 billion feet of yellow
pine and about 10000 sawmills,
the pine industry holds today a
commanding place in the cOun-
try's lumber market. By their
very magnitude the forest prob
lens of the South command atten-
ton"
In addition to the value of the
timber, the southern pineries, said
Mr.. Graves, furnish annually a
bout 35 million dollars worth of
tudpentine, rosin, etc. This income
is in danger of being entirely lost
through failure to properly care
for and perpetuate the forests.

France is a man-made indus

Pure Culture Method of Apply.
ing Fungi Apparently Success

Several weeks ago the county
agents of the citrus counties met
at Lakeland with Frank Sterling
of the State Plant Board to re-
ceive instructions in the applica-
tion of pure cultures of whitehy
fungi. The Board is furnishing
pure cultures of the red fungus at
cost, because restrictions have
been placed on the transportation
of fungus material from one
grove to another.
A. P. Spencer, district agent for
the University of Florida Exten-
sion Division, reports that the re-
suits obtained by agents in dis
tributing the material have been
satisfactory. In Brevard coun-
ty the agent, A. r. Nelson, has
sprayed the material into several
groves and has found rapid dis
tribution of the fungus. He be-
lieves that this method is much
more rapid than the old method
