Some Reports and Bulletins 



The Biennial Report of the State Geolo- 

 gist of North Carolina, Dr. Joseph Hyde 

 Pratt, is to a considerable extent a forestry 

 report, dealing at length with the condi- 

 tions in the state and work that is being 

 done. On this point the report says that 

 the protection and the perpetuation of the 

 forests of North Carolina has become one 

 of the more important problems and stud- 

 ies of the North Carolina Geological and 

 Economic Survey. It is estimated that 

 approximately eleven million acres of land 

 in the state are now supporting some kind 

 of forest growth and one-half of this area 

 is probably absolutely forest land. Prob- 

 lems relating to forestry are vital to the 

 industrial life of the state, which should 

 put forth every effort to make the forests 

 as nearly perpetual as possible and encour- 

 nge and stimulate their conservation by 

 their owners. The forestry work of the 

 Department has consisted of: (1) An in- 

 vestigation of the forest conditions of 

 North Carolina; (2) a study of forest fires 

 in North Carolina; (3) a statistical study 

 of the wood-using industries of North Caro- 

 lina; (4) the examination of timber areas 

 in regard to practicing scientific forestry; 

 (5) examination of watersheds belonging 

 to municipalities in regard to their protec- 

 tion from fire and contamination; (6) in- 

 vestigation regarding the re-forestation of
