Prom this timber in 1914 saw mills and crate factories produced a total wealth of 23 1-2 mil lion dollars. Approximately 13 mil lion acres are in farm wood lots, "which produce annually wealth amounting to -11 1-2 million dollars. This places the State first, in wood lot wealth. To illustrate the import ance of . this fact, it was- shown that the cotton and corn crops alone in the State produce greater wealth" than our woodland crops.
