LUMBERMEN’S: FARM IN THE DEEP WOODS. 
When carried on in connection with lumbering operations such a farm proves a real 
profit maker. Advantages—-farm produce for the camps at cost, of better quality and 
without excessive transportation charges by rail or tote team; opportunity to make 
use of the fertilizer that is usually wasted around the hovels; a chance to give a few 
good men an all-the-year job, farming in summer and lumber in winter, resulting in 
better labor conditions. Photo by Maine Forestry Dept.
