TIMBER CONSERVATION 



In a bulletin recently issued, Secretary Wilson, of the Department of Agriculture, calls 

 attention to the fact that the State of Louisiana, ranking second in its wealth of timber 

 only to the Pacific Coast States, will have cut all of its 199 billion feet of lumber in thirty 

 years at the present rate of consumption unless it begins a plan of conservation and re- 

 forestation. He says: "With efficient protection of this young growth, and better utilization 

 of the present commercial stands, the forests of Louisiana, even in the face of a much 

 greater agricultural development than now, should remain an important source of wealth."
