ing and the further utilization of thinnings and woods and mill waste 

 will very materially augment the importance of this great resource. 



This entire amount goes to capital and labor within the State; 

 perhaps about 25% to the labor and capital directly concerned in 

 the forest industry and fully 7.V < or more to other labor and capital 

 throughout practically every avenue of the trade and industry of 

 the State. 



It is one of the objects of the demonstration forest to show by 

 actual demonstration how our forests can be made perpetual through 

 forest management. The importance of the University's demonstra- 

 tion forest in helping to solve some of the most important problems 

 in the future economy of the State must be evident to all. It is not 

 merely a question of the permanency of the forest industries, which 

 are of basic importance, but also that the disbursements of this in- 

 dustry to all the other industries of the State shall continue in the 

 future as in the past, to furnish the life blood of the State's com- 

 merce and agriculture. This, then, is the fundamental purpose of 

 the demonstration forest to show the simple and practical methods 

 of management which, if applied generally, will result in the per- 

 petuation of our forests with all the economic interests dependent 

 upon them. B. P. K.
