Record Timber Sales Made In National Forests Past Year - -_____— Nearly Two Million Dollars Worth Sold. Big Increase Record breaking timber sale business for National Forests in the South during the fiscal year just closed has been announced by Joseph C. Kircher, Regional Forester for the U. S. Forest Ser vice. Nearly $2,000,000 in revenue were returned to the U. S. Treasu ry from the sale of timber and other forest products. “This revenue represented an increase of 48 percent over '4142, which was a year of increase in itself,” Kircher said. “War de mands for wood have increased greatly the urgency of producing as much timber as possible—tim ber cut on a selective basis and in accordance with good forestry.” “Practically every bit of timber cut and forest products sold went to war industry,” Kircher added. Revenue from the sale of forest products on National Forest land is returned to the Treasury of the United States as dividend on the public’s investment in the National Forest system. Twenty-five per cent of the total revenue is dis tributed to the counties in which the forests lie. in lieu of taxes on publicly owned land. Some coun ties in the South are receiving a greater return from these National Forest receipts than from similar land in private ownership. The Southern Region of the National Forest system was estab lished as such only in 1934. The Arkansas National Forest land was largely reserved from the public domain. The land in other Nation al Forests was bought for water shed production, timber produc tion, and as demonstration units Grow Turnips For Good Dairy Feed Dairymen who have no silos can produce from six to eight tons of turnips per acre to take the place of silage in the winter feeding of their cows, says John A. Arey, Extension Dairyman at State Col lege. According to Arey, the feeding of 20 to 30 pounds of turnips per head daily will materially increase the milk production of dairy ani mals. He recommends that the turnips be seeded early in August on low, | fertile land which has received a good coating of manure and 600 to 800 pounds of a complete, high grade fertilizer. The purple top or Pommeranian white globe are two good varieties to plant. Turnips and other root crops are slightly laxative and tend to keep the cow’s digestive tract in good condition, thereby enabling her to get more out of the other feeds which she consumes. in proper forest management. Most of the land had been badly cut over when purchased and it has been necessary to provide ade quate fire protection and stand improvements to bring the land back into productivity. The record breaking achievement made by the foresters in the past year’s timber sales on Southern National For ests ranks the Region second in the nation lor value of timber produced from National Forests. The Pacific Northwest Region is the only one to exceed the South in National Forest timber sales record.

The war along the Russian front continues in decided favor of the Red army, which, yesterday, was reported barely 12 miles from the great industrial center of Kharkov, where they smashed into a rail way town 45 miles east of Bry ansk. The Russians were said to have made general advances along the entire 300-mile active front, with 70 towns and villages taken in the Kharkov area. At one rail way station 250 German trucks fully loaded were reported to have been seized by the Russians.
