EVERY form of business depends 

 more or less upon lumber. No 

 other materia) lends itself to so 

 many uses. The beauty and comfort 

 of our homes, the very existence of 

 our railroads, the economical handling 

 of manufactured goods, the benefits of 

 -a free press the entire prosperity of 

 the nation, in fact, is built up on .a 

 plentiful supply of this most necessary 

 material- 

 Oar Vanishing Forest* 



Within a century, our forests have 

 been reduced from 850,000,000 acres 

 to 150,000,000. We are consuming 

 lumber at a greater rate than ever be- 

 fore. Replanting is a matter of years, 

 while our vital need is to protect our 

 present supply. Conservation and pre- 

 servation must join hands you must do 

 your share by preserving from'decay 

 every stick of lumber that you use. 



Carbosota is a wood preservative 

 that every lumber buyer, large or 

 small, can employ with profit. Its 

 application is simple, and it has the 

 effect of greatly prolonging the life of 

 wood at a cost far below that of re- 

 placing it after it has decayed.

'A Valuable Opinion on 'Forest Devastation' from 

 Henry S. Craves, Former Forester 



*We recently received a letter 

 from Henry Solon Graves, now 

 ea-forester of the United State* 

 Forest Service, Department of 

 Agriculture, Washington, D. C, 

 which we consider altogether 

 the most substantial statement 

 Mr. Graves has ever made on 

 the subject of forest devastation. 

 Here it is: 



'We must take our choice be- 

 tween stopping forest devastation 

 and lessening prosperity. Do we want to 

 sink to the condition of the European 

 countries, whore scarcity and high cost of 

 wood handicap industry and human com- 

 fortf We mu*t decide now..... 



'Timber must not become an imported 

 luaury in the United States. We must apply 

 the American spirit of development in stimu- 

 lating production- but at the right point. We 

 must neither lock up our forest resources 

 nor butcher. them, hut make the most of 

 them. Not restrictions on the use of 



timber but efficient use of land to 

 growtimberand efficient use of the 

 timber itself is the true way out. 

 The first step is to call a halt on 

 the present devastation of timber- 

 growing land. We are letting 

 use and ruin go hand in hand. 



'I am urging that all the in- 

 terests concerned join in a drive, 

 not to stop the use of timber but 

 to stop waste . . . 



The conservation of timber 

 by extending its life in use is true forest con- 

 servation. We must do everything that 

 science and ingenuity can devise to increase 

 the usefulness and prolong the life of wood. 

 I am heartily in accord with every sound 

 effort that is being made to eatem! the 

 longevity of timber in various industrial 



uses The conservation of "

 the whole scheme of forest coi 



the lumber. For larger work, where 

 suitable equipment is obtainable, the 

 Open Tank process, which consists 

 in the immersion of the lumber in hot 

 and cold baths of Carbosota is naturally 

 more effective, although more costly

The Farmer 

 and County Agent 



The rise in lumber prices has hit 

 the farmer as well as every other user. 

 If he buys lumber it costs nearly 

 double what it did. If he cuts his lum- 

 ber from the wood-lot, the increased 

 value of his own or hired labor has 

 boosted the cost until it is just as 

 essential for him to prolong the life 

 of his own lumber as for any other 

 user of wood. 



Usually the county agriculj 

 agent will gladly show the farmer, 

 to save money by wood presen
