T^HE New York State Forestry Asso- 

 ciation, with headquarters in the 

 Chamber of Commerce at Syiacuse, opened 

 its 1921 membership campaign with a spe- 

 cial issue of the Rivet, its official news 

 leaflet, published in conjunction with tnc 

 quarterly magazine, New York Forestry. 

 The need for greater effort in reclaiming 

 waste land and in setting to work the idle 

 land of the State is the issue on which the 

 Forestry Association makes its bid for 

 support. New York contains 12,000,000 

 acres of idle land. Less than 10,000 acres 

 per year are being reforested. The Asso- 

 ciation argues that unless the citizens of 

 New York unite to remedy the evils caused 

 by depletion, it will be a thousand years 

 before our idle forest land becomes ideal 

 forest land. A plan is presented for obtain- 

 ing the necessary information about forest 

 planting, through Association headquarters. 



PENNSYLVANIA 



DECAUSE of the open winter and early 

 spring the nurseries operated by the 

 Pennsylvania Department of Forestry are 

 already in full swing. More than 500,000 

 trees have been lifted out of the nursery 

 beds of the Greenwood Nursery, in Hunt- 

 ingdon County, and about 750,000 at the 

 Mont Alto Nursery in Franklin County. 

 At the Clearfield Nursery all the stqck 

 available for distribution this spring, 

 amounting to approximately 600,000 trees, 

 has been removed from the beds. Nearly 

 half a million trees have been shipped to 

 private planters from these three nurseries. 



Orders for more than two and three- 

 quarter million seedlings have been 

 received from 684 applicants. These trees 

 will be shipped to every part of the State, 

 as there are only two counties, Greene 

 and Juniata, from which no orders have 

 yet been received. 



John W. Keller, Chief, Bureau of Silvi- 

 culture in the Department, says that forest 

 tree planting by private owners of forest 

 land is now an established practice, and 

 the trees ordered this spring will reforest 

 2,000 acres of land and, if protected care- 

 fully and handled properly until mature, 

 will cut 50,000,000 board feet of lumber. 



The Forest Academy students on Mon- 

 day, March 14, began the planting of 

 120,000 forest trees near Mont Alto, in 

 Franklin County. This is the earliest date 

 upon which spring planting operations 

 have begun for many years, and, judging 

 from the progress that is being made, all 

 the trees will be planted during the next 

 week. These trees are being planted upon 

 areas formerly occupied by chestnut which 

 had been killed by the chestnut blight.
