Fir Bttumps Projective.
It t now believed that fir stumps will
become a source of productive value, and
the owner of logged off timber land will
in time be enabled to prepare the soil for
other crops at a diminished cost. The
fir stnmp and its long roots are rich iu
resinous gums, and the staple prjV.u-ts

big ree itself.
Persons Interested In timber have long
discussed the probability that fir stumps
would become valuable forthjircooi at
rial products. In addition t t'o staple
