The Forest Service, in collaboration with 

 State forestry agencies, forestry schoofs, 

 forest industries, and other forestry interests, 

 has prepared a comprehensive analysis of 

 the timber situation in the 12 Southern States. 

 This analysis has been published as Forest 

 Resource Report No. 24, "The South's Fourth 

 Forest: Alternatives for the Future." The 

 present handbook is a supplement to that 

 document. 



"The South's Fourth Forest" is available for 

 purchase from the National Technical Informa- 

 tion Service, 5285 Port Royal Road, Spring- 

 field, VA 22161 (in both paperbound and 

 microfiche).
