Barnett Abstract Early in the 20th century, the forests in the South were devastated by aggressive harvesting and many millions of acres of forest land needed reforestation. Foresighted individuals began a committed effort to restore this land to a productive condition. This effort required dedication, cooperation, and leadership. A small cadre of individuals led the restoration of the South’s forests that became the basis of the South’s economy. Many of these individuals are profiled in this document. Keywords: History of forestry research, research scientists, restoration of southern forests, significance of forestry to the South, southern pines. how to cite this publication: Barnett, James P. 2011.

The forests provided materials for export as well as to build homes and cities. Initially, this resource was used slowly, but as the population increased timber near bays and rivers was harvested and shipped widely to meet an array of timber related needs. Clearing of forests for crop production occurred throughout the southeastern Coastal Plain and Piedmont from the colonial period until the beginning of the Civil War (Williams 1989). In Virginia alone, more than 25 million acres, nearly one-half of the total land area, had been cleared by 1860. Soil erosion became a major problem. Declining soil productivity caused large amounts of agricultural land to be abandoned throughout the South by the end of the Civil War (Fox and others 2007). After the Civil War, the South’s economy was in shambles and forested land was inexpensive. This provided an opportunity for northern industrialists to purchase timber and labor to operate sawmills. Although this massive harvest of the South’s virgin forests resulted in deforestation throughout the region, it did provide the economic basis for recovery of the South. The development of railroads throughout the country made a rapid movement of the population into the Great Plains and West feasible with a great need for building materials. Also, newly developed railroads and steam powered logging and milling equipment provided the technology to quickly harvest and mill tremendous quantities of timber. These efforts focused on the western portion of the Gulf Coastal Plain where virgin pine forests had remained largely untouched. Wakeley (1954) stated that there were 13 million acres of forest land in need of planting. Later, Wahlenberg (1960) estimated that 29 million acres needing planting. These conditions resulted from abusive agricultural practices that degraded soil productivity, coupled with exploitative timber harvesting without provision for regeneration. Deforestation has occurred frequently since the beginning of civilization. There are many examples of resulting devastations to the climate, loss of fuel for cooking, massive soil erosion, reductions in wildlife populations, and general decline of the economy of regions where forests were lost. Many European settlers who came to America did so because of problems caused by deforestation in their home countries, and major deforestation continues to occur in many developing nations even today. Faces from the Past: Profiles of Those Who Led Restoration of the South’s Forests ix How could the United States avoid most of the problems resulting from regional deforestation? The answer came from a coordinated effort to develop reforestation guidelines. Forward thinking individuals in the forest industry, Federal and State governments, private landowners, and university groups were determined to restore the devastated lands into productive forest systems. In the early 1900s, forestry was in its infancy in the United States. The Biltmore Forest School near Asheville, NC, was created as the first forestry school in the United States. However, a number of university programs rapidly followed. Cornell, Yale, Minnesota, and Michigan universities were leaders in developing strong forestry programs. It is somewhat ironic that foresters from northern universities came to the South to lead restoration efforts that were needed because much of the forest devastation in the South was created by northern industrialists a few decades earlier.

Design: Eva Kok Translation: Ninette de Zylva (editing) Printed by: Digigrafi, Wageningen, the Netherlands ISBN Agromisa: 90-8573-027-9 ISBN CTA: 92-9081-327-X Foreword Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) are wild plant and animal pro- ducts harvested from forests, such as wild fruits, vegetables, nuts, edi- ble roots, honey, palm leaves, medicinal plants, poisons and bush meat. Millions of people – especially those living in rural areas in de- veloping countries – collect these products daily, and many regard selling them as a means of earning a living. This Agrodok presents an overview of the major commercial wild plant products from Africa, the Caribbean and the Pacific. It explains their significance in traditional health care, social and ritual values, and forest conservation. It is designed to serve as a useful source of basic information for local forest dependent communities, especially those who harvest, process and market these products. We also hope that this Agrodok will help arouse the awareness of the potential of NTFPs among development organisations, local NGOs, government officials at local and regional level, and extension workers assisting local communities. Case studies from Cameroon, Ethiopia, Central and South Africa, the Pacific, Colombia and Suriname have been used to help illustrate the various important aspects of commercial NTFP harvesting.

Original Article “Better than White trash”: Work ethic, Latinidad and Whiteness in rural Arkansas Miranda Cady Hallett Otterbein University, OH Abstract Diverse sites in the US South are being transformed by “new Latino immigration.” Rather than being a homogeneous process, experiences of migrant settlement are shaped by the racialized social worlds of particular historical social communities – and may in turn transform local racial formations (Winders, 2005). In one small town in rural Arkansas, Latina and Latino migrants perform boundary work (Lamont, 2000; Hartigan, 2010), constructing their identities as “good” workers and neighbors. Although migrants assert belonging and dignity by framing themselves as “better than White trash,” nonetheless this belonging is predicated on the reproduction of racial and class hierarchy as well as conformity to the structural demands of neoliberal capitalism.

  • It's Jerry's Birthday Chatham County Line
    K k JULY 2014 VOL. 26 #7 H WOWHALL.ORG KWOW HALL NOTESK g k IT’S JERRY’S BIRTHDAY On Friday, August 1, KLCC and Dead Air present an evening to celebrate Jerry Garcia featuring two full sets by the Garcia Birthday Band. Jerry Garcia, famed lead guitarist, songwriter and singer for The Grateful Dead and the Jerry Garcia Band, among others, was born on August 1, 1941 in San Francisco, CA. Dead.net has this to say: “As lead guitarist in a rock environment, Jerry Garcia naturally got a lot of attention. But it was his warm, charismatic personality that earned him the affection of millions of Dead Heads. He picked up the guitar at the age of 15, played a little ‘50s rock and roll, then moved into the folk acoustic guitar era before becoming a bluegrass banjo player. Impressed by The Beatles and Stones, he and his friends formed a rock band called the Warlocks in late 1964 and debuted in 1965. As the band evolved from being blues-oriented to psychedelic/experi- mental to adding country and folk influences, his guitar stayed out front. His songwriting partnership with Robert Hunter led to many of the band’s most memorable songs, including “Dark Star”, “Uncle John’s Band” and the group’s only Top 10 hit, “Touch of Grey”. Over the years he was married three times and fathered four daughters. He died of a heart attack CHATHAM COUNTY LINE in 1995.” On Sunday, July 27, the Community Tightrope also marks a return to Sound Fans have kept the spirit of Jerry Garcia alive in their hearts, and have spread the spirit Center for the Performing Arts proudly wel- Pure Studios in Durham, NC, where the and the music to new generations.
