It wiU be noticed that these lists do not make any reference to the 

 raising of large sized hardwoods. It is true that wide, clear 

 boards of oak, ash, cherry, etc., cannot be grown profitably with 

 a stumpage price of $10 per M. What has happened in Europe 

 and wiU xmquestionably happen here is that the stumpage prices 

 of high grade hardwood will go above $10. For 200 year oak $50 

 per M has been paid in Germany.
