Nationr '50 Sccdling Production M.y Rsforsrt Half Million Acra

Washington, D. C.--Thc United States last year produced enough tree seecllings to reforest more than a third of a million acres of timberland' This year the figure may g() up to half a tnillion acres,

These facts were revealed in a reccnt stlrvey of all fcdcral, state and private nurseries in the cottntry made by J. C. McClellan, chief forester for Anrerican Forest Products Industries, Inc., Washington, D. C.

"More than 3ll0 nrillion see<llings were produced in the nation's nurserie$ in 1949. At a thousand seedlings per acrc, that's enough trees to reforest a third of a rnillion acrcs," I\fcClellan said. "Nursery cstimates call for a production of more than 500 million seedlings for 1950, enotrgh trees to reforcst lralf a million acres.

"Assuming a twrl-thir<ls stlrvival rate, last year's scedling crop of 3ll0 nrillion trces u'ill in half il centtlry supply thc coutrtry's rvootl ncc<ls for it ,vear," McClellitn ad<led.

The country's top see<lling protlttcer was I-rluisian:r which turne<l out 53% million trees, 14 l)er cent of thc national ()utput.

"Outstanding as this 6gure is," said McClellan, "it is even more significant that industry<lwned nurseries con' tributed nearly as much to this Louisiana total as did state' owned nurseries." Louisiana has more nurseries than any other state.

Next 12 states in approximate order of 1949 seedling production were: South Carolina, 32 million ; Georgia, 27 million; F'lori<la, 25 million; Atabama, 2l million; Tennessec, 2l nrillion; Wisconsin, 21 million; Michigan, 2l rrrillion; New York, 20 million; Texas, l5 million; Washington, l0 million; Mississippi, 9 million; Nebraska, 8 nrillion.

Sitka sprtrce is named for Sitka, Alaska, where the Russians started cutting spruce lumber in 1804 and shipping it to the Spaniards and Mexicans in California'

White Fir trees are true firs. More than 90 per cent of Whitc Fir in the Western Pine Region is Abies amabalis, Abies concolor, Abies grandis or Abies magnifica'

White Fir lumber is non-resinous, fine textured and o<krrlcss s'hen dry.

40 Yecrrs Ago

The Fresno Bee of Saturday, April 15, in its column Fresno's Yesterdays-"4O Years Ago" carried the following advertisement:

"Wanted : nine black cats, must be fast black. Deliver to A. L. Hoover at Pierce Lumber Companv. Will pay 25 cents a caL" r.uM8fi

J. C. "Doc" Snead of the C. S. Pierce Lumber Co., Fresno, who sent in the clipping says: "The A. L. Hoover mentioned is norv the famous A.L. 'Gus' lloover, Los Angeles wholesale lumberman."

Wonder what Gus wanted the black cats for? He must have been getting ready for a Hoo-Hoo Concat. Cats were sure going cheap in those days.
