Protected from fire and manag ed wisely, forests will yield a golden harvest year after year. This is as true in South Carolina as it is anywhere else in the United States. But, strangely enough, many people, including some woodland owners, find it hard to think of timber as an agricultural product. They fail to recognize that trees, too, are a crop. Those who make a business of tree fanning know what good woodland management can ac complish. They know that South Carolina’s annual 20 million dol lar forest harvest can be increas ed substantially. With 160 million American customers clamoring for wood and products made from wood, the timber market is getting better each year. American com- mitments overseas, expanding de fense needs at home and an ever-growing list of new wood uaes promises to keep forest pro duct markets good for years to come.

Commercial uses. It successful ly developed by the Experiment Station and there Is every rea son to predict success, would be turned over to the swiftly-expand ing dairy industry of the Pied mont Section. Thousand of dairy farmers would benefit through such a project.
