R LUCKY STRIKE cigarette 0 WASTED ACRES Idle land is the cause of America’s growing timber short- age—idle land that should be utilized for growing trees to replace those cut for the industries. The chief forester of the federal government estimates these idle acres at 81,000,000, an area increased by 8,000,000 acres each year. This is not land adapted to agriculture. It would serve the nation best by growing timber. It is idle and unproductve because ‘Ameri- cans continue to pursue wasteful policies in forestry. In spite of modern substitutes for wood in construction, more wood is used now than ever before in this country.
