Following close on the l-reels of the certification and dedication of the great Hammond Lumber Company tree farm, comes the application made by the Union Lumber Company, of San Francisco and Ft. Bragg, for certification of their great 65,331-acre tree farm in Mendocino County. Their reforestation proiect is in two units of 25,517 and 39,814 acres each.

In addressing the application to the California Redwood Association, Mr. Otis Johnson, president of Union, said: "These lands are being protected and managed according to the tree farm standards of the Cali{ornia Redwood Association, and in a manner that should result in continuous production of commercial timber products. Union Lumber Company subscribes to the four basic principles governing tree farms in the Redwood region. We have in the past, and we intend to continue to carry on our timber harvesting operations in a manner that will maintain these lands in good productive condition."
