STATE*HOUSE
Next Meeting neil Wednesday, Sept 10 NJ

Hardwood Association, the State De-
partment Of Forestry, and the State
Assessors Office. During the past
winter Mr.. Bryant Jones, Mr.. George
Faulkner, Mr.. George Gruhn and
Mr.. Pierson of the State Depart
ment of Forestry have been working
on individual townships, checking up
the available data and filling in the
colors designed to show the presence
OF certain types of growth in these
townships. In order to do this work
it has been necessary to look over
timber-cruisers reports and maps
covering each area to be marked, a
tremendous amount of material be-
ing sifted to obtain the most accu-
rate existing information"
Mr.. Stubs stated that there are
eight general types of growth pres
ent in Maine, these being: Spruce
and Fir; Northern Hardwoods; Mix
ed Softwoods; White Pine: Confer
| Gus Swamps; Aspen or Poplar;
White Birch; and Grey Birch.
In general, the final type map

the ridges; the spruce and fir in the
hats and lowlands, and in some cases
on the slopes: the other types such
as poplar. white birch, pine or hem
lock will be found in smaller
stands"
THE value of the type map lies
IN Its capacity for depicting the fol-
