Photograph of pine growth. This picture follows OK-457-A showing good pine reproduction in 50-acre area which was release cut in August 1950. Removal of overstory allowed sufficient light for pine seedling growth. All pine growth is from natural reseeding. Dead brush in foreground is post oak which was deadened or cut in August 1950. Large oaks were girdled. Pines are shortleaf and loblolly. Alvin E. Howard, project conservationist, inspects pine growth. Camera position marked by upright metal pipe painted yellow.
