THE FUTURE TIMBER SUPPLY.
Atlanta. Gn., June 10.——For its tu
tare supplv c- timber the South must
look to the farmers’ woodhatß,
Roland Tvr er. general agrico.ltir
agent of the Southern Railway S• s
tem, calling attention to the problem
and the oppoVanity which “our van
ishing forests” present to the South
ern farmer.
The farmer’s woe Tot can be move,
to yield a steady cash income as well
as to furnish the lumber needed for
the farm, says Mr. Turner, .ui ui gir r -’
careful maragenfent of woodlands
which are on soil too rough or i
tile ’or tillage hut which can be made
to pay a profitable dividend by cutting
out the mature timber and protecting
the young growth from injury by fire
and other causes.
What can oe done to make me
woodlot pay is shown by the
i.o 1921 the farm wood’ots or IV.sarc
land, where advanced forestry meth
ods have been adopted, showed an av
erage income of $2.75 per acre a- d
each tract was cut over in such a man
ner that a new crop will fol’ow the
old.
As the South’s largest consumer of
! v/ ood as well as the owners of a large
: Phrt or its present timber supply, far
mers have a vital interest in forest
I preservation on their own farms and
! ? aa make their wooded lands pay an
| income as well as to keep down their
. mnicer bill, Mr. Turner concludes.
RECEIVES FIVE-YEAR TERM.
Is Sentenced to Go to Prison Follow
ing Jury Verdict.
W. R. Clayton, at one time pros
perous automobile dealer doing a large
business in new and used cars at Fay
etteville, was last week sentenced by
Judge Henry G. Connor to serve five
years in the United States prison at
' Atlanta, Georgia, for receiving auto
mobiles transported in interstate com
merce, knowing them to have been
stolen.
Clayton was convicted on an indict
ment charging the receipt of five Ca
dillac automobiles but the defendant is
alleged to have dealt in more than
one hundred stolen automobiles having
a total value of more than $200,000.
From the standpoint of the amount
of money involved, the prosecution i
ranks as one of the largest if not the
largest in the United States since Con
gress passed Dyar anti-automobile
theft act in 1919. Practically all of
the automobiles are alleged to have
been stolen in and around New York
by Frank Eckels, alias J. Cummings,
and associates. Eckels is now serving
a term in the New York State Prison
and several of his erstwhile confeder
ates are also behind the bars but none
of them were tried here.
The Clayton cases have been hang
ing fire since 1920 when Clayton was
first accused and original owners of
the automobiles began to recover their
property.
Clayton was allowed 30 days in
which to straighten out his business
affairs before beginning his term in
prison.
He gave bond in thesum of $2,500
and is to report to United States Mar
shall R. W. Ward, at Raleigh on July
14 to be taken to Atlanta.
