 If you know of anyone who would like to take ad- 

 vantage of this opportunity urge them to write to the 

 State Forester. 



Farm Woodlands An Asset 



Farm owners are slowly waking to the fact that 

 their woodlands are an asset instead of a liability. 

 Their 200,000,000 acres well on to 40 per cent of 

 the total timbered area of the United States today- 

 must be made to do their part by adding to their 

 owner's income, and our country's wealth. 



What do owners desire of their woodlands? 



Many are looking at the aesthetic side and are 

 beginning to realize the extent to which woodland 

 adds to the beauty of the farming country, and to 

 the desirability of country living. To a very consid- 

 erable extent, these owners and their neighbors 

 can ^eat their cake, and have it, too" for the forest- 

 er can show them how to harvest their timber crop, 

 and yet preserve the external general appearance of 

 the piece of woodland. 



A large number appreciate as never before the rela- 

 tion between the permanence of springs and streams 

 and the presence of a woodland cover. But here 

 again the forester can help the farmer by showing 

 him how he may cut his timber crop and yet protect 

 the water resources of his farm.
