A far greater area of forest land needs to be brought under management. Extension of private management proceeds only very slowly and extending public control and management by purchase will run to great expense. The plan herein offered proposes that government purchase control ratherthan ownership of forest land. Present holders of timberland would continue their ownership but would grant the government an easement permitting it to control and develop the timber. Income from the sale of timber would be shared upon a predetermined basis. Local governments would receivea subsidy in lieu of taxes. Costs of acquiring control are much less than those of obtaining outright possession and the savings to government would, therefore, be considerable.

The southern pines, especially longleaf pine, are very susceptible to at least two important needle diseases. Of these the brown-spot disease is by far the more important. It was found that the amount of infection of the brown-spot fungus varies with the age of the plantation, but norelationship was found between incidence of infection and the physical properties of the soil. This paper is of particular interest to forest pathologists because of the new application that is made of statistical methods to the study of tree diseases.

To date, the Soil Conservation Service has planted about 350 million trees on 217,500 acres of land. Much of this area represents poor planting sites and admittedly some mistakes were made in the selection of tree species. Nevertheless, on about 80 thousand acres of the 110 thousandacres examined the survival has been satisfactory.
