| Description: | Caption reads: "Pole stand of shortleaf pine that has come in since cutting. Note stump near man in picture and large tree in foreground. Age of average dominant tree, 20 years. 4,000 trees per acre. Rock Creek, Ouachita National Forest, Arkansas. Stands like this and those shown in Plates 19 and 20 are common in some districts on the Ouachita National Forest. As study of growth rates and possible thinnings in such stands would be well worth while." Plate #16 in W.G.
