area already referred to, which must be entirely planted, there are 

 four million, four hundred and forty thousand acres of farm wood- 

 lots whose growth would be greatly improved if there was a judi- 

 cious amount of underplanting, requiring but very few hundred 

 trees per year. 



This Commission will be glad to assist private owners in plant- 

 ing or in the management of their forest lands. If any of our citizens 

 have any problems on which they would like advice, we will be glad 

 to have them furnish us with detailed information, stating the 

 location, extent, size and kinds of trees, and such other information 

 as we might need in order to give them the advice which they desire.
