The forester base* hi* argument 1 for more attention to woodland I management on three facta. They ‘ arc. first, the shortage of timber is । worldwide and there is no relief in 1 sight. The International Timber conference which met last year in Europe concluded there was little prospect of world demand for tim- ; ber decreasing before 1960. if I then. Second, there is a shortage of ! saw timber in the United States | While it is not critical. Ross points to the fact that the annual drain on the saw timber resources is i 50 billion board feet. New growth | is at the deficit replacement rate ; of 35 billion board feet a year. Ross third point is the fact that | Phone 65 old growth timber in the north west is dropping. Western Oregon i privately owned saw timber is de- ' creasing at the rate of 5 percent or more a year. < Consequent ly, lumber using in dustries must make the change in time from old growth to second i growth lumber. With this change, markets for farmer owned timber ' will expand and develop. Ross concludes.
