them when first started. 
2. Where natural restocking cannot be expected or 
is too slow, artificial reforestation is neccessary if the 
forest is to be fully stocked and kept at its highest produc- 
tive capacity. 
3. To prevent wasteful cutting of forest crops, a sys- 
tem of taxation should be devised on the productivity and 
collected only when the crop is harvested. 
4, Where grazing and forest land are so intermingled 
that both industries must be carried on together a system 
which will permit the full use of the forage and at the same 
time protect forest reproduction in the early stages is 
necessary. 
5. On areas where agricultural use and forest use of 
the land overlaps, the problem is so to adjust the uses that 
the greatest constant values are produced. 
6. In utilization of forest products, waste of all kinds 
must be eliminated by a more exact knowledge of the quali- 
ties and uses of woods as well as of the market and manu- 
facturing conditions. 
7. In the strictly technical silvicultural problems a 
well organized policy of research work is desirable in order 
that better methods may be available as rapidly as economic 
conditions permit their practice and that proper advance 
may be made in the scientific phase of forestry.
