The mass production of trees by mechanized methods—that's the real idea of the Forest Industry Nursery I on Nisqually Flats, eight miles north l of Olympia. Look easterly from the I highway, between the long hill and the river bridge, and you can’t miSS the show. Acres of overhead sprink- ler pipes crisscross land that looks like gray—brown velvet. There‘s the tree mill, with ten million fir, hem- lock. spruce and cedar seedlings in production. Lumbermen and private forest owners have talked about such a project for years. A number of com- panies experimented with nurser- g ies. They had land areas which had I been burned by cigarette and other forms of fiends in the forest. These areas would have to be planted or remain barren. But the expense of a small, hand-worked nursery made the per-acre cost of planting too big to bear. Timber growing by private enter- prise has to pay its way, it has to be a real part of the timber business, if it is to be more than a name. At Nisqually seedlings can be produced for a half-cent each. Lumbermen i I OUT OF THE WOODS by Jim Stevens from the bottoms won't thrive up yonder. The cones were threshed, and the seeds cleaned of their wings, by pOWer machines. During the winter tests were made with seed—soil com- binations, by means of plantings made in small separate units, all kept at summer heat by electric soil-cables. Germination and growth were scientifically charted, with l cases kept on each unit, as on a patient in a hospital bed. The best soil-seed combination served as a scientific guide for preparation of I the nursery ground, and for selec- tion of the seed to be planted. Tear Gas for Trees . . . I One day in April Superintendent Charlie Reynolds and his crew hitched up an odd-looking rig be- hind a tractor. It had the appear- ance of a double-barreled trench mortar. One of the barrels held compressed air, while the other was primed with chloropicrin—tear gas to you and me. The boys donned regulation gas masks and away they went down the field, pumping tear gas into the soil. As soon as the guns had gassed one of the rows, the overhead sprinkling system was and forest owners of the Douglas fir region have joined together to provide a nursery project large enough for effective mechanized op- eration. So it's a tree mill, planned, organ- ized and equipped for quantity pro- duction of tree seedlings, as a saw- mill is rigged up and managed for the quantity production of lumber from trees. From tree mill to saw- mill runs a promising new road of forest conservation. Scientific Business . . . Great care was taken in selecting seed stock last fall. Just any old cones wouldn’t do. They were picked on sites known to produce finest quality trees, and at levels com- planted. High-level tree stock won't do well in the lowlands, and st0ck turned on and the ground given a good wetting—sealing the gas into the soil. Seems that the gas kills all of the weed roots and most of the weed seeds. Three days or so later the soil was opened up and the gas was given the air. Then, the mechanical drill, plant: ing at the rate of a thousand seeds a minute. . . . Next fall a mechani- cal ground loosener will dig up the trees. Quick-fingered girls in the nursery warehouse will sort, cull and tie them into bundles, ready ' for the forest. . . . Out in the woods, on industry lands which have been burned over, planting crews will be ready, with more machines and more sciench . . . Some day loggers will come again. and the long haul from tree mill to sawmill will be completed.

There was a time when the trees of the American forests stood on land needed for vil- lages and farms. Forests were removed both for their timber and so that the land might be used. _ Today we have enough farm land. Our re- maining forest areas can be kept at the job of producing successive timber crops. Under modern perpetual-yield manage- ment the forests produce the things we need, but the forest industries keep the woods—wooded. Through scientific cutting, maintenance of 'seed sources, and planting of nursery-grown stock, young, Vigorous, forest growth replaces mature, slow-growing trees which need to be harvested. This company and the forest industries generally have entered a period of managed, plan- ned operations of the woods.
