and results all will be benefited. .
Forest landa In privets ownership art
mainly of two kinds, small holdings, for
--' " the most part farmers" woodlota, and
. larger areas, chiefly valuable for lura-
, ber. Assistance will be given to the
owners of each kind, so far as the funds
' at the disposal of the bureau will permit.

elhr planted, as -In regions' otherwise
'' treeless, or of natural growth. The
' 'value of this wooded portion,-besides sf-
-fording protection from the wind, ' Is
. chiefly for fuel, fencing, end railroad
rfe-ttes, with.- soma bntldtn g material and
the. wood needed for special uaes about
1 the farm. . v
Without the woodlot the farm would
very often be an unprofitable investment,
because the farmer .could not afford to
buy the wood which now coats him very
little except the labor of cutting and
moving It. Indeed. In very many caaes
th woodlot kervps the farmer going. His
abor there during the winter, when
1 otherwise he would be Idle, makea tip
' for any deficit from the cultivated land,
' and the ready money he receives from
the sals of fuel, ties, or other material
la Indispensable to his comfort and pros-
- pevlty. . - : ." '
! . In two directions,' then.- material-and
money, tha product of his woodlot Is of
?hlgh Importance to the farmer. But in
T the majority of cases this part of thn
".-farm Is far leas useful than It' might
'('easily bo made. This Is true because
' ths farmer does not study Its productive
'. capacity as tie doea that of his fields
; and pastures, nd hence does not make
lt yield as fully as he might, with little
- 'or no additional labor, if he went about
;'" It In the right way. -
In every foreat region of the United
