National 

 Forest 



Timber 

 Sales 



1UMBERMEN have bought 

 National Forest stumpage 

 ki preference to acquiring 

 privately owned timber for an 

 operation because of the desira- 

 bility of working under a Govern- 

 ment contract. They have not 

 found the requirements of the 

 Forest Service impractical or 

 burdensome. An important factor 

 is that National Forest stumpage 

 is paid for only as it is cut — no 

 heavy initial investment in tim- 

 ber is required.

 Forest Service from July 1, 1913,
