A well-stockei, second-growth longleaf pine stand, 70 years old, on a farm in Tattnall County, 
Ga. The trees average about 70 feet in height and range up to 15 inches in diameter; they con- 
tain a total of about 30,000 board feet per acre of saw timber. The present owner grew up on 
the farm and remembers the trees when they were saplings about 10 years old. The location 
is within a few miles of the railroad, and attractive offers have repeatedly been made to the 
owner for the timber to be used as piling and lumber and for turpentining. Fires have 
largely been kept out.
