BONDED MANINGSEED 
Bivee MANINGSEED is collected under the 
supervision of professional foresters from stands specified and described by the 
Manning Seed Company. The information furnished with BONDED MANING- 
SEED specifies the location of the stand from which the cones were collected by 
township, range and section (a unit in the survey system of lands used in the western 
part of the United States—a square area one mile on each side), and by-elevation 
zone to the nearest 200 feet. In addition, information on slope, aspect, soil, age, 
stand condition and most representative U. S. Weather Bureau station is given. 
Eleven stands in widely separated areas have been selected as collection points 
for BONDED MANINGSEED. These are representative of the moist Coastal zone 
and the drier interior sites. As each of these areas produces a crop of seed, it will be 
collected and offered for sale as BONDED MANINGSEED. As sufficient demand 
develops for more collection areas, more will be set up and complete data on them 
provided. The areas selected at present are: 
Forks 13-0.5 
Hoquiam 22-0.5 
Jewell 35-0.5 
Brookings 43-0.5 
Louella 56-1.5 
Darrington 65-0.5 
Granite Falls  61-1.0 
Pe Ell 77-1.0 
Ashford 78-1.5 
Palmer 83-1.0 
Cascadia 86-2.0 
As cone collection is possible in these areas, stand identification date will be 
taken and published in Manning Seed Company’s NEWSLETTERS.
