Title: Forest resources of south Georgia
First published: 1941
Description: Although south Georgia has long been noted for its extensive forests and diversified forest-using industries, there is an excellent opportunity here to build up (perhaps to double) the present growing stock. To do so would assure a permanent supply of raw material and thus permit additional industrial expansion. Many areas are still unprotected from fires: openings are in need of artificial restocking; turpentine practices, especially those of the many small gum producers, need further improvement; and many forest stands are stagnated with worked-out turpentine pines, cull trees, and inferior species.
