End Prodncts Of The Tree Farm
Harvest Meet Basic Farmer Needs
Mora (ten a million fermtrs
In the South own commercial
forestland. Many are tree hr*
men who have made timbtr a
major kma - term crop.
The South haa marly 43 mil-
lion icree of tree terms - two-
thirds the nation’s total. While
much of this acreage Is owned
by lumber companies, paper
mills and other forest Indus-
tries, 60 percent of the re-
gion’s tree termer* are ter-
«ais.— ———
A tree term is s well - man-
aged, well - protected woodlsnd
' area designed for maximum
quality yield on a permanent
basis. Farmer - owners take
their timber harvest to maiket
at the forest products factor-
ies.
Tree terming is an lmpor-
, tent
management programs of the
timber industries. The combin-
ed impact has brought the
growth of Southern Pine saw-
timber to the amazing level of
16 billion board feet a year -
three times the growth of any
other species In the nation.
Timber crops constitute an
Important source of income for
Southern termers • and much
mors. End products of the har-
vest art fulfilling many basic
term needs .
Southern Pin*- the chief
staple of the region’s tree
terms - Is one of the world’s
strongest and most versatile
woods and therefore well adap-
ted to various forms of term
buildings. ' ’r
Farmers may use lumber
manufactured from their tree
crops for frameworks of their
homes, Interior paneling, ex-
terior siding and trim.
In term buildings, an Impor-
tant use Is the pole • frame
structure. Pressure treated
wodd poles, are. Imbedded
Inga or foundations. The build-
ing Is completed hy the applies*
tion of standard items of lum-
ber to the framework of poles.
Many termers do the work
themselves with conventional
tools.
Wood trussed rafters are also
highly practical in term build-
ings as space generators.
These shallow triangles of
lumber are so strong test the
roof needs vertical support only

Southern Pin* Is recognized
as the easiest species to treat
because ~ot Ihs depth and uni-
formity of penetration that can
be obtained with chemical pre-
servatives. As such, It Is well
adapted for poles or fencing

' ssure treatment with chemical

species provides three • fourths
of all pressure treated poles In
the United States.

C*literals: "A letter which ap-
peared in tb* Fresno Guide, Sep-
tember S. wee very interesting
to me. This letter was from
Ethel Drury, Lae Vegae. Nevada,
and pertained to the way wo
amused ourselves in the days of .
long ago. She tells of the County
Fair at Durango, Colo, at which
the visiting tribes of Indians
were a memorable feature One
chief in particular was a notable
character at the Fair
Tor'many'yeera I had in my
possesion, a picture of "Buckskin
Charley”, hand-painted on buck-
skin. ft was truly a work of art.

"Buckskin Charley” at the age
of 96. The clipping tells bow'

piementa are other uses for
Southern Pine on the term.
Some lumber companies uti-
lize berk to make fertlllzer-
still another essentiail term
commodity.
Tree termers who utilize the
end products of the timber har-
vest for their own needs are
gaining more than a dependable
material. They are alto making
a direct contribution to the for-
est - based economy on which
their welfare depends.
"Buckskin Charley”, rescued the
Women and children.
“Mrs. Drury also speaks of
the books wo used to borrow
from neighbors and friends. She
speaks of the "Elsie Dinsmore
series." I would love to acquire
some of these books. My grand-
children would enjoy them as
much ss my children and I did.
I would also like the chance to
read again, The Lucky Sixpence."
