Forestation Plan Proposed For Vast Tree Belt Across Plains
A Kansas man reports decades of effort to plant trees on his farm as part of a federal project to create a 100 mile wide forest belt from the Canadian line to the Mexican border. The plan envisions 180000 acres of green ash and other species, fence posts supplied by the CCC, soil work by farmers, and leased land, with a ten to twelve year timetable and costs around 15 million dollars per year for the first phase. The undertaking would require 260000 miles of fencing and 200000000 fence posts, and could become a monumental marvel of the era once completed.
