10. Discuss whether (a) the forest is more important for watershed 

 protection or for our lumber supply; (b) recreation areas in the forest are 

 more important than pulpwood-producing areas; (c) wildlife management 

 should be an important part of forest management; (d) farm woodlands are 

 profitable to the Corn Belt farmer. 



11. List the forest industries that depend directly on the forest for raw 

 materials. 



12. Visit as many wood-using industries in the community as possible 

 and find out where they get their raw materials and how these are trans- 

 ported. Find out where their products are used and how transported. 

 Find out how many people are employed at each place visited. 



13. Find out where your local supplies of construction lumber come from. 

 Trace the route on the map. 



14. Find out from an electric or telephone company what kinds of trees 

 are used for telephone, telegraph, and electric-line poles, where they grew> 

 how they are transported to your community. 



15. Find out what these words mean: Forest, coniferous, deciduous, 

 altitude, timber, board foot, watershed, national forest, hardwood, soft- 

 wood, erosion, pulpwood, wood pulp, resin, rosin, piling, veneer, naval 

 stores, plastics, primary forest industries, sawlog, veneer log, cut-over land, 

 cordwood, chaparral, timber line, reforestation, afforestation, exploitation.

 insects and disease when importing lumber and forest products. 



17. Point out on a world map the international exchange of forest 

 products. 



18. Make an extensive exhibit of forest products. This will take some 

 research because it is not generally known that often combs, fountain pens, 

 some clothes and rugs, are made from wood. Write to your regional 

 forester, at address under which your State is listed, and ask for a copy 

 of Wood — The Material Of A Thousand Uses.
