The "Tree Farm"
!
!
' have heard much about conservation of our forests and
tly m°re particularly, about the term in its meaning of
'Tstant renewing of our natural resources.
I a neighboring county was enacted about two weeks ago a
onstration of the steps to take to practice maintaining our
fn
"ewable natural resources.
A ceremony took place in Duxbury, in Plymouth County, on
h
' i9th of October, at which the Lot Phillips Company of]
ILover manufacturers of boxes for 78 years, pledged to active
S
ntific forest conservation its 4000 acres of woodland. Sena-
Sie
Stone who is a strong advocate of conserving our forest
°
ources by this effective metho'd, was present on the occasion,
K
\presented a certificate to the Phillips Company which
r ienated their woodlands as a "tree farm " under scientific
Management This is the first such tree farm in southeastern
Massachusetts* and the tenth in the state . . . . . .
These "tree ,farms" are privately-owned forest land held for
tantl renewed growth. The owner agrees to cooperate
with the Department of Conservation and the Agricultural Ex-
tension Service in treating a specified forest area by the approved
scientific method of sustained yield, which includes protecting
it (torn disease and fire ravage and harvesting it according tc
f Sponsors of this state tree-farm program are the Massachu-
¦Us Department of Conservation and the University of Massa-
chusetts Forestry Department. Our state is one of 25 others
[who are inaugurating these individual projects to call public at-
tention to the importance of private woodlot owners adopting
the principles of scientific forestry management.
Officials from Amherst and District and County Forestry
Circles were also present at the Duxbury ceremony.
There are many other small , industrial timber land owners
throughout New England, who, if they can be induced to do so,
might well follow suit.
In presenting the certificate, Senator Stone commended the
Phillips Company for adopting this long-range program and
, helping to conserve for future generations our valuable forests.
Their action represents a sacrifice of immediate profits , for
ordinarily every usable tree would be cut down for timber,
without thought for the future.
The "tree farm" is the result of a new point of view regard-
ing our natural resources and their constantly recurring renew-
ability. It is important to accustom ourselves to this thinking,
that we may assimilate it as an accepted part of our local and
national economy. Those who have wooded lots of sufficient
size can think to a purpose, that of undertaking a tree farm.

"Family Album," a gay story of
youth In the llnal days ot the
Tsarist regime, by Paul Chavcha-
vadze , has recentl y been published
by Houghton Mifflin Compft&jr.
Chavchavadze, a naturalized
American citizen , has pictured
grandparents , uncles, aunts anel
cousins, In a collection of colorful
reminiscences. There Is the grand-
father who has a diamond set In
his teeth because bis wife told
him his smile was not bright. There
is the uncle with a mania for the
circus which he follows all over
Russia.
"I had often been ufged by
friends to write the stories I told
them about myself and my family, "
Chavchavadze says. "1 was not very
keen about it until the Idea came
of writing it as a series of sketches
about people I had known well."
The story is brought up to date
with a chapter on Chavchavadze 's
experiences as a Uason officer In
the American Army working in
Occupied Germany with the Soviet
forces. Aiajalov has done the illus-
trations for "Family Album."
An amateur writer since child-
hood, Chavchavadze lived in Ru-
mania and England after leaving
Russia at the time of the Revolu-
tion. He came to the United States
in 1927 and he and his wife , Nina,
a Romanoff and a cousin of the
last Czar, now live In Wellfleet on
Cape Cod.
