These cones are used for seed

¡industry, as re-forestation plans
must be made soon if the lumber
¡supply is to be perpetuated.
Cut now faster than they are
replanted, the present supply is
r.ot sufficient to last until re
forestation program can be put
under wav to produce marketable
timber.
It will take eight million trees
planted each year to maintain
the present supply of timber to
¡be needed for houses by the end
of this century. Foreign nations,
too. have started a re-forestation
program, and cones will be so
needed to carrj out this plan
Details concerning these cones
