Modifications Required on a Machine in Mississippi

The Biloxi Ranger District of the Mississippi National Forests is located within convenient fishing distance of the Gulf of Mexico. In this flat coastal plains area there are some 16,000 acres of wide, open, wet "savannah" lands. Unlike true savannahs which are characterized by the presence of saw-palmetto or bunchgrass, these openings are low meadowlike areas which remain wet a large part of the year. The higher ground in them runs heavily to sandy soils.
