OKATHAM 



The pitch pine type is the largest one found in Chatham, 

 It covers 56^ af the entire forest area, but like all the rest of 

 the tovms it falls in the reproduction class. The stands are so 

 thick that nothing else has a chance to get through to the sunlight. 

 In the western part of the town near the Harf;ich-Brewster line are 

 areas of oak, but all too small for commercial purposes. Some 

 time in the future they may be large enough to cut for cordwood.
