Caption reads:  "Stand of young mature shortleaf pine lightly cut over 10 to 12 years ago showing good reproduction.  Tree on the right 119 years old grew 0.6 inch in the last 10 years and 0.18 inch in the previous decade.  Tree in the center has 2.5  logs to 8-inch top.  Total height 55 feet, age 121 years, growth 1.55 inches in 10 years following cutting and 0.5 inch in the decade before cutting.  Rock Creek, Polk County, Ouachita National Forest, Arkansas.  This situation suggests the possibility of learning something of conditions under which accelerated growth may be expected after cutting by a study of old timber sale areas.  In few, if any, situations on the Ouachita National Forest are there any acute problems in securing adequate natural reproduction.  On the other hand, the problem of handling over-stocked stands of reproduction is becoming evident.  See plates 12, 20, and 21."  Plate #14 in W.G. Wahlenberg, "Report on a trip for the tentative location of an experimental forest within the Ouachita National Forest, Arkansas."  Unpublished USFS report dated April 25, 1931, on file with SRS.
