ARE OF MORE PROFIT Than Clearing the Land and Trying Other Crops on Land. A permanent woodlot is an essential part of a well-equipped farm. In heavily wooded States especially fanners are likely to overlook this fact and recklessly cut, misuse, or clear up their forest areas. It does not occur to them then that it may be advisable to allow thrifty, immature timber to mature rather than to remove it at a loss; and that it is often better to pi actice intensive agriculture on areas already cleared than to clear additional areas which are in growing timber. The one direct economic reason for the use of land as woodlot is that on some areas timbei is the most profitable crop that can bo grown. This, of course, ;s especially true of poor and rough land. Where all the land s adapt.: d to more valuable crops the woodlot should occupy anly a small part of the farm area. I There arc a great many indirect considera iocs, however, which justify the maintenance of a permanent wood lot on the farm. The important ones, a number of widen are usually active in any particular ease, are: (i) For convenience of home use for fuel, posts, and other farm needs; (2) as a v.iiuioreak for build ags c.r crops; (3) as a shelter for stock; (-1) for prolectio', of land from erosion; (5) to furnish work tor men and teams during spare time; (G) for puteiy esthetic reasons and for recreation purposes, for which reasons alone a farm with a wsll-located grove of trees, however small, will sel? tor more tha I one without. Thus a woodlot may at the same time increase the general prosperity cd tne farm, add to its comfort a; a homo, and enhance its value as an investment. The roii oi; farmers have not given as full consideration 10 the woodlot, as it da-o. ct * is tliat they have not hau comple:? enough knowledge of the mark* i possibilities of various woodlot p oaiuts and of the rate of growth and pas ibio yields per aero oi p: iperlv caie.i for stands of different species and age s, or that they have considered only the present need and have not looked ahead. Special attention is now being given by the I forest Ser.iec to these questions and I to the questions of improved methods I of maik ting. Information about i the uses of various kinds of wood and j the markets for them has been comj piled for a number of States. In 1 same cases this information has been 1 published by the State foresters in Wood-Using Industry Reports ami : in Handbooks for Marketing Woodlot I Products. A new bulletin prepared by the forest Service (farmers' Bulletin 71 h, Measuring and Marketing j Wood lot Products) is a handbook of practical information lor farmers regarding the measurement of timber, t lii^ r.?> - > o n? ...v. i .... ..... hi 11icii woouiot products arc sold, the methods of sale, and the way to find a market. Another just published (Farmers' Bulletin 711, The Care and Improvement of the Woodlot) contains information intended to assist the fanner in managing his woodlot so that it will yield the best quality and the largest amount of timber of which it is capable. The farmer too often considers only the local and immediate uses of a V. oodlot ?>l ! wrw* :horn and disregarding other functions that might ultimately prove to be more important. For example, where agriculture is entering heavily wooded regions, timber is likely to be considered only as incumbrance. In long settled farming regions, where most of the timber has been cut and only a few trees are left, the farmer may prefer to save the remnant for the shade it gives to stock or buildings or because it improves the appearance of the farm. In prairie country, protection to grain crops, orchards, stock, or buildings, together with service as a convenient supply of wood for farm consumption, may cause owners to place a high value (Continued on pagt 7.)
