In order to get the ; most profit from his timber crop, he should become familiar with the different species and the sizes and purposes at which they will bring the best market price.

Cottonwood, ash, and yel low poplar become commercial ly valuable at mucn earner ages than white oak, black walnut, orpine. The purpose for which the wood is to be used also de termines the age at which to cut. In many cases the farmer cuts and hauls his own timber during the winter months when other farm work is least pres sing and thus makes a profit on his labor as well as that of his team. On the other hand, if he sells it to a lumber company the experienced men can cut the trees with less damage, not only to the falling trees them selves, but to the small grow ing trees that will later produce another crop.

For example, in some central hard wood regions, farmers often sell their select yellow poplar trees profitably and with the cash purchase suitable lower cost lumber that will answer their building requirements, i Likewise, there are too often cases where choice white oak of the best quality for veneer r furniture stock is being sawed into fence posts. In other cases farmers show good judgment by using suitable lumber sawed from their own trees by local mills, rather than using more costly material that has been shipped from a distance. Large logs are always more valuable than small ones of the same grade. . By keeping in touch with market conditions farmers can market their timber when it is in demand. With rarely an ex ception the timber on farm woodlands is not dying, decay jing, or being attacked by in , sects at a rapid pace and unless • it is overmature, is is increas ing yearly in volume and val jue.
