But don't i hope you don't see them in your waste time with 7-10 splits?Just | game. Farmers Often Misjudge Value Of Their Timberland Moat farmers do not sell forest crops regularly. Consequently, j they have very little sales exper ience In this field. Also, most farmers don't figure they have much cost in their woodland and so any dollar may look good. But why not get the high dollar both this year and over the years from your woodland? In order to make a successful sale, you must use good business procedures, along with deter mln Lng the market for your wood pro ducts. ? There are four essential steps in making a successful woodland sale: 1. The Estimate. 2. The Bid. 3. The Contract. 4. The Follow Up. FIRST, and most Important, is i the estimate. To aell without anf accurate estimate is to put your self at the mercy of the buyer. You should know within 5 to 10 per cent accural the value of trees to be sold. (1) Train yourself to do It. Ex tension foresters, through your county agent or the state forest ers, will help you, or (2) A consultant forester will make the estimate for you and handle the whole transaction for a percentage or flat fee (S) For selective cuttings of timber, the N. Cv Division of For estry will assist in selecting, mark ing and measuring trees to cut. Contact your county agent or county forest ranger for their help. (4) A fourth alternative is to get estimates from several lumbermen. SECOND, competitive bids. Once you have your estimate, ob taining bids is your second step. Don't take the first bid that comes along. Chances are If someone comes by and volunteers a bid for your timber, he is looking for a bargain. The estimate is still your best protection, but competitive bids are your next best protection to see that you get the high dollar. If possible get bids from at least three reputable buyers. This will get you the feel of the market Reputation of the buyer is impor tant. for on this will depend the care given trees reserved from cutting during the harvest. Often, where a large sale is be ing made, there may be some ad vantage in the auction method of selling. You will possibly get more bidders and obtain a "truer" market'value for your timber. THIRD. The third essential is your contract. You should by now have your estimate and have an idea of the market. Next you will need the specifications which meet your desires about the manner in which the timber will be harvest ed. if you accept a bid. In a sale these specifications should be written in a contract which Is binding both to the buyer and the seller. This contract may seenv unnesessary in a small sale, but it is the legal document which should clear up any misunderstand ing or overcome the fargetfulness of a verbal agreement. Some prin cipal points a good contract should cover are: 1. Sale area boundaries. 2. Clear definition Bt tree* to be cut. m V ?? 1 3. Ownership of laps and slabs 4. Date and manner Of payment. 5. Time allowed to remove tim ber. 6. Right of way to buyer. 7. Protection of remaining stand from fire, unnecessary road con struction and logging damage. 8. Defense of property against liens. 9. Penalty clause to protect re served trees. 10 Removal of laps and slash from fields and pastures. FOURTH, and last, but not less significant, is the follow-up: The buyer is going to see that you live up to your agreement. See that he lives up to his. Cigarette Economics MACKINAW CITY, Mich.

Pine Beetle Killing Trees In Mountains By B. J. KOWAL Southeaster Fares* Experimental Station Forest Service. U.S.D.A. Since 1092 Western North Caro lina and Eastern Tennessee have had increasing destruction of their pine timber due to a group of in sects known as pine bark beetles The greatest offender of this group of insects is the one known as the Southern pine beetle, the No. 1 killer of pines. Since that time close to 90 mil lion board feet of pine timber have been killed. In 1094, when con certed efforts began to control the beetle, the loss in Western North Carolina and Eastern Tennessee was estimated at about 22 million board feet. Since then the cur rent loss has dropped somewhat due to control efforts by forest : landowners and through natural factors. However, considerable losses are still occurring; if beetle activity continues at its present rate and builds up in the propor- j tion it generally follows as warm ; weather approaches, we may well expect severe losses this coming summer. This Insect kills trees by boring through the bark and feeding be tween the bark and the wood un til the tree is girded and death follows. Attack first begins on trees which have been injured by drought, lightning, and other con ditions; as the beetle builds up into large populations, attacks are made on vigorout,-trees Eventually large numbers of trees are attack ed. There are #nly two ways of con trolling such outbreaks: One is to renlove trees'containing insects as rapidly as possible and destroy the infested material by processing it into lumber and pulpwood. The other is to fell the infested tree and spray it with BHC; this more costly method is employed when it is not practical to move infested wood to the mill. These actions prevent the excessive breeding of the beetle and buildup of large populations. These methods of coptroj are be ing followed over the entire area where our breaks exist. However, they are being applied largely by, the larger land-management agen cies. In some counties where there are many small forest landowners, control 1 snot progressing as well as might be desired. Large land owners are helping the samll in sofar as possible. The Champion Paper and Fibre Company, for example, is taking in Infested wood as rapidly as it is able. Small private landowners adjacent to National Forests or National Park boundaries are aid ed by these agencies but there are still many areas in which the owner himself must exert control effort. Whether or not this is done de pends to a considerable extent on various agencies giving the infor mation to the landowner. Exten sion foresters, district foresters of the state, private industry, and the U. S. Forest Service are attempting insofar as possible to advise more landowners what to do. The Division of Forest Insect Research of the Southeastern For est Experiment Station of the U. S. Forest Service has been in close touch with the epidemic of the Southern pine beetle, not only in North Carolina, but in all states of the Southeast. Its insect survey unit has made numerous aerial sur veys over infested areas, prepared reports for the information of landowners, and assisted landown ers in training control crews in the proper methods of detecting insect outbreaks and controlling the in sects. The research unit of this Division is attempting to develop more effective methods of control, for example, its eqtomologists re cently found that BHC (benzene hexachloride) In oil appied to the MsarkAf a beetle-infested tree is more effective in killing beetles and considerably cheaper than the old orthodichlorobenzene treat ment. They are studying the flight habits and behavior of the beetle to determin why epidemics spread and the way in which they do so. In their immediate plans is a pro ject to determine what factors in the environment favor the beetle's activity. One of the flrst approach es will be to determine whether stand density favors the beginning of insect outbreaks. The division will be working on other forest insect problems of economical Importance, and enlist the cooperation of forest landown er? In keeping them posted of their problems and of the effectiveness of various measures which they apply for insect control. Landowners are advised to get in touch with foresters from pri vate industry, state, extension de partment, National Forests, or Na tional Parks, or wtih entomologists from the Southeastern Station to obtain advise regarding the most effective methods of controlling their insect outbreak:- and prevent ing further losses and getting the best utilization of their timber.
