Nor was there too much being done to perpetu ate the Tar Heel state's forest re sources by wise use and refores tation of cut-over and idle lands. The state geologist in 1823 made a start toward conservation of North Carolina's minerals and wa ter. Other state agencies also went to work, but it was not until the creation of the geological survey in 1891 and the state geological and economic survey in 1905 that efforts were made to promote con- 1 servation of North Carolina's vast natural resources, including its 1 more than 18 million acres of j woodlands. The geological and economic sur* vey was replaced by an act of the North Carolina general assembly of 1925 in authorizing the state board of conservation and devel opment and within its jurisdiction the present North Carolina depart ment ol conservation and develop i ment. Included with a number of other conservation agencies in the department is the division of for estry. John Simcox Holmes, who was the state's first state forester and ! who retired in 1945 after having given a lifetime of service in pro motion of better forestry practices, was a moving spirit in the organiza tion of the North Carolina Forestry association in 1911. Mr. Holmes, now in his 80's, still retains a keen interest in better forestry meas ures as any Tar HjcI .orester will testify if asked to do so. 600 Members The North Carolina Forestry as sociation. which meets jointly with ! the American Forestry association at Ashevilte Oct. 12-15, now has about 600 members and most of them are active. i Like many other organizations, I the N. C. F. A. has had its ups and | downs over the years, but under the direction and inspiration of its I current president. Roger William ; Wolcott, it appears to have had jthat proverbial "shot in the arm" that it needed. I A native of Cheyenne, Wyoming, I Wolcott received his education at the University of Nebraska and later graduated from *hc Colorado State college's school of forestry. He now lives in and makes llaleigh his headquarters as he serves as district superintendent, woodlands department, International 'Paper company, in its pulpwood opera tions in North Carolina and adja cent states. An energetic sort of fellow, Wol cott and other officers and mem bers of the association, including Don P. Johnson of Wake Forest, a past president of the N. C. F. A. and now president of the American Forestry association, have |iad the whole-hearted coperatidfc ' dT*- the North Carolina department of con servation and development and its division of foresrty in promoting better forestry practices in the Tar Heel state.

To tolopliono in odvanco if you con't koop o dontal or modi* col appointmont. tices and forest management in North Carolina are the members of the North Carolina Forestry eoun ! cil. a professional foresters organ ization that came into being a few years ago. Dr. Richard J. Preston, dean of the North Carolina State college's school of forestry, is coun cil president. Included among its j members are: Dr. Clarence F. Kors I tian. dean of the Duke University's ! graduate school of forestry, state i forester Fred H. Claridge, and President Wolcott of. the N.C.F.A. The council is one of the moving ; spirits behind the long-range for estry program that was evolved in the state about two years ago. "The members of the North Car olina Forestry association have made and are making a definite contribution toward the conserva tion of our natural resources and they are to be highly commended lor what they have done and are doing," commented George R. Ross, director* of the North Carolina-de partment of conservation and de velopment. State forester Fred H. Claridge heartily concurred with Ross' statement. Other officers of the N. C. F. A. in addition to President Wolcott are: J. V. Whitfield of Burgaw, first vice-president and a member of the North Carolina general as sembly, where he has long been a leader in conservation of the state's natural resources; Colin G. Spen cer of Carthage, second vice-presi dent, Ralph Edwards of Morgan ton, third vice-president, R. W. Graeber of Raleigh, secretary, and E. M. Hansen of Raleigh, treasurer. Top Projects Among the top promotional pro ' jects of the association is the | "Keep North Carolina Green" pro | gram. It is interesting to note that the association and the state's di ! vision of forestry gave such whole hearted backing to what is known as the Pocosin club at New Bern | that the U. S. forest service sent one of its top men there to study' I how the professional foresters, business men and others in that heavily wooded section of North Carolina are giving real impetus to the "Keep Green" ^program. The net result was that the U. S. forest service's representative left the coastal area with the announced determination of what he called "the New Bern approach" to the "Keep Green" movement to the other thirteen Southern states. The New Bern plan is also being ex tended into other areas oC the ' state. "Forests for Profit" is another project of the N. C. F. A. It has five key objectives, namely: 1. To advocate simple? minimum, sound timber cutting practices and adequate fire protection for North Carolina forest lands. 2. To obtain the adoption ol these approved cutting and pro tection practices by sawmills, pulp mills and other wood-using indus tries. 3. To support research and edu cation leading to improved forest practices and wood utilization. 4. To sponsor the development of more and diversified markets for timber. 5. To provide a focal point for the coordination of the activities of all forest agencies in North Carolina. The association <s now working on a program to develop the best type of cutting practices to be used in each of the major timber stands in North Carolina so that the state's forest lands may be kept continuously productive. Also, the Forestry association has appointed a committee to form ulate a water resources policy for North Carolina. "We, in the Forestry association, feel that water resources and for estry are tied hand in hand in that the primary consideration in any water resources policy is proper management in the watersheds," President Wolcott recently wrote one of North Carolina's best known bankers in replying to the latter's request for information concerning the purpose of the N. C. F. A. President Wolcott is hopeful the water resources committee will have a report ready for submission to the joint forestry associations in Asheville. It is intreesting to note another paragraph the closing one ? of President Wolcott's letter to the inquiring banker. It follows: "I believe you will agree that the North Carolina Forestry asso ciation has a very full program and one tha is very imporant to the forest resources of this state. Forestry, and its allied industries, is the second largest industry in North Carolina and the Forestry association is the one association in which industry and commerce can NOW.. .a DRY CLEANER WHO DARES CHALLENGE COMPARISON r/<1' You harvest more and cleaner grain when your McCormick harvester thresher is properly adjusted and all parts are in good working condition.
