AMERICAN FORESTRY 



\ 





The Making of 

 Southern Pine 



FIRST the forest cruiser, lone explorer, 

 and ad\ance ajjent of the lumberman, 

 judges and chooses with keen, appraising 

 eye the prime stands of virgin woodland. 

 A great sawmill is erected. More thou- 

 sands are added to the millions of persons 

 in America who derive their livelihood 

 from manufacturing trees into lumber, and 

 another thriving prosperous community is 

 added to the five hundred maintained by 

 producing Southern Pine — that sturdy, de- 

 pendable material which still is and always 

 has been the least e.xpensive, most easily 

 available building material in the world.
