'Country Roads' i
By CtlARLE PECK {
County Extension Agent }
For most of us, figures are
1)ret.ty hard to swallow. But some-
times they do a hody good by set-
ting him straight on some of tim
more important things of life; sort
of like taking a stiff dose of stzl-
plmr and molasses when spring
fever sets in.
DO YOU KNOW that about 2,-
500,000 acres of forest land, scat-
tered throughout western Wash.
ington, are owned by about 36,649
owners? This does not take in
company land or industrial for-
ests. In these acres, only the small
hind owllers are counted; farmers
and the like.
r!f, If these lanes sere managed
growing timber, each ame
could grow nearly 1,000 board feet
of forest products each year. This
means that western Washington
owners of small acreages of for-
est land, taken all together, could
grow for profit npwards to two,
and one half billion board feet of i
forest products each year. Figared
at fifteen dollars per thousand
stumpage, this annual growth
could amount to thirty-seven and
one half million dollars. And
what's more, such income would be
almost clear profit, continuing
year after year.
The business of managing small
tracts of timber for greater growth
is called farm forestry or tree
farming or forest farming. We
like "forest farming" beat because:
(o us that tells the story of order-
i ' ' ' "
y 1orastrv a it apphes to raining
a crop from small tracts of forest
land
Anyway, what does this busines.
of forest farming mean to folk in
Mason county ?
IN &BOUT 40 yearr, most of
old growth timber in this area
will have been harvested Then
industry will drop back on to a
second growth show;to a second
growth economy. This has already
happened in the southeast where
giant wood-using industries mamt-
facture products wholly from sec-
ond and even from third and
fourth growth pine. It will happen
here.
If the owners of small acreages
of forest land will take a hard
look at this trend, he can put him-
self into a very favorable position.
Fro', if his lands are under manage-
meat; if be learns to tilin when
thinning should be done and, most
important, if he handles limber
satcs in a bus!net-like fashion, he
will have in his hands one of the
finest of all investments.
Everywhe,'e, up and down west-
ern Washington, you can hear
folks growl about industries buy-
ing up forest lands. Well, why
shouldn't they ?
In /Host cases tile owners of
acreages don't give a hang
about tintbor managenmnt. Usu-
ally lain lands are ch)se to market,
are on good roads and have the
best tree-growing softs. It's good
business to get hold of this land.
Who wouldn't jump at a bargain
when it'S as obvious as a dew ekaw
on a ho'imd's foot?
BUT llACK of this is a fact
whicl few people know and which
few people will accept.
In the first place, industry
needy a sure and constant supply
of timher to keep its wheels turn-
ing; to make a profit and to em-
ploy people. The thousands of
acres of small forest holdings fit
into this picture. Industry must
buy them in order to keep going
indefinitely; indefinitely for its
good and for the good of the peo-
ple in its business area.
But, in most cases, if industry
were assured that the small for-
est owner would manage his land
for continuous production, few
small tracts would ever be pur-
chased for industrial use. In the
10ng run, a company finds it cheap-
er for the smklltowner to retain
ownership if he:wlll manage his
forest lands.
liLTORICALI,Y, in our neck of
the woods, the small owner ha,,
not made nulch of a move toward
management. Hence, the many
small forest tracts and submargi-
nal agricultural lands sales to in.
dustry.
One of these days the business
of forest farming will take hold.
When it does, most of the owners
of small tracts of forest land will
scratch their heads and say "Man,
oh man, why didn't I do this years
ago ?"
With nickel once again in good
supply, increasing amounts will be
used in nickel plating on domestic
appliances such as toasters, waf-
fle irons, ranges and percolators.

DO YOU KNOW that about 2,-

owners? This does not take in
company land or industrial for-
ests. In these acres, only the small
hind owllers are counted; farmers
and the like.
r!f, If these lanes sere managed

could grow nearly 1,000 board feet
of forest products each year. This
means that western Washington
owners of small acreages of for-

at fifteen dollars per thousand

could amount to thirty-seven and
one half million dollars. And
what's more, such income would be
almost clear profit, continuing
year after year.
The business of managing small

In the first place, industry
needy a sure and constant supply

acres of small forest holdings fit
into this picture. Industry must
buy them in order to keep going

But, in most cases, if industry
