A LUMBERMAN'S SUGGESTIONS 

 T\ F. CLARK, of McOsborne and Clark 

 * Lumber Company, of Minneapolis, 

 Minnesota, a member of the American 

 Forestry Association writes : 



"I am very much interested in reforesta- 

 tion, and every element that enters into 

 forestry, as I think the time has come when 

 every man, whether he is a lumberman or 

 not, should take a great interest in con- 

 serving our forests and woods. I am very 

 much in favor of changing the thickne 

 of hardwood lumber, and establishing the 

 custom and practice of using thinner 

 woods in practically every place where 

 inch wood is used. 



"The pine men have preserved the for- 

 ests by establishing the grade on a thin- 

 ner basis, and the time is here when hard- 

 wood should also be established along these 

 lines. Our desks and chairs, floors and 

 everything that does not require strength 

 could be reduced a large percentage, and 

 yet be suitable for the purpose, and it is 

 a great saving to our hardwood. I have 

 advocated this in several places, trying to 

 get the people of Minnesota interested. 

 My experience in selling hardwood to man- 

 ual training departments is that they insist 

 upon having absolutely clear lumber. They 

 teach the child to make the things, but the 

 child has no conception whatever of the 

 way the wood grows, or the grades which 

 the tree produces. Many of the teachers 

 and children do not know the different 

 kinds of wood, and it would be surprising 

 indeed to learn how few out of 100,000,000, 

 of our countrymen know the kinds of 

 trees, or the kind of wood after the tree 

 is manufactured into lumber. 



"I am very much enthused in agitating 

 these matters, as well as matters relating 

 to reforestation and conserving, saving and 

 protecting our forests." 



FUTURE TIMBER CROPS 



/"^ROWING future timber crops must be 

 largely, though by no means wholly, a 

 Government and State function," said E. 

 T. Allen, Forester, in discussing the lead- 

 ing Forest Policy proposals at the Second 

 American Lumber Congress and 18th An- 

 nual Meeting of the National Lumber 

 Manufacturers Association which was held 

 April 20 to 22, at Chicago. 



Mr. Allen distinguished between local 

 and national policies and the Congress 

 passed a resolution to the effect that as 

 most forest programs are largely local, 

 local committees of the various regional 

 associations should be appointed to confer 

 with local forest authorities to determine 

 the steps needful and to promote their adop- 

 tion. An early declaration of principles in 

 the light of what shall be determined is 

 urged so that a wise and efficient policy 

 may be developed looking to the perpetua- 

 tion of forest supplies. 



Dr. Hugh P. Baker, Secretary of the 

 American Paper and Pulp Association, pre- 

 sented the forest policy promulgated by his 

 association in a splendid talk.
