Small Holdings
Biggest Factor
In Timber Land
Oregon's vast land owning
'timber barons" are very much
figments of overly vivid imagin
ations because actual facts and
figures do not bear out the oft
expressed belief that timber and
trees are all owned by "big bus
iness."
This statement is made by O.S.
C. extension forester, Charles R.
Ross, who points out that wood
land owners in the state number
close to 45,000. He says 63 percent
of Oregon's privately owned for
est reserves are owned by indiv
diuals with holdings of less than
5,000 acres each.
Farmer owners of woodlands
play Important roles in the tim
ber picture, Ross emphasizes. In
western Oregon, for example,
there is an average of close to 40
acres of wood for each farm.
Many other small acreage timber
owners are local businessmen,
city workers living in the coun-
ly from the field, are being con
structed in strips which will be
seeded to alfalfa and grass this
spring for permanent hay. This
field was severely eroded by wu
ter during the past winter.
District supervisors at the meet'
ing reported the purchase of a
packer from Mrs. Hilma Ander
son for use on conservation seed
ings of sweet clover and alialfa

try, and various other Investors.
From the national standpoint,
4,000,000 persons in the unneu
States own a piece of woodland
which contains less than 500 ac
res. Together these small acre
age timber owners control 200.
ouu.000 acres of forest. That Is 60
percent of all the privately own
ed forest land in this country.
Meanwhile, a change is taking
place in the minds of the small
forest property owners, Ross
states. Prior to about 1910, few
farmers, for instance, saw any
thing but a pasture and wood
reservoir in their wootllots. They
felt it did not pay to try to sell
small trees, an dit took two life
times to crow salable timber. A
sweeping change in viewpoint is
now taking place, Ross observes,
and present day woodland own
ers are seeking income from their
trees. Nowadays they are talk
ing knowingly of poles, sawlogs,
pulpwood and fuel markets.
Future markets for woodland
products are bound to inenviv
with second growth timber be
coming more valuable as the re
sult of inroads on the stands of
old growth forests. The day when
farmers can receive an annual
"cosh crop" from their woods is
not too far distant, Ross said.

W recommend to you very hihly our thrnc-tiTm Gov
raor, Harold E. Stanson, for the next President.
W know him well. He was born on a Mmni'BotH home
toad which hia father and mother are atill furminK. He haa
always been right on agricultural queationa, from oleomarga
rine and cooperatives, to parity and conservation. We also
have confidence in him on the big isRucs that affect us all. He
has been firm and conaiatnt againat the communinta. He has
been constructive leader in every respect. He hacked an
outstanding farmer, Edward J. Thye, as (lovcrnor and as
United States Senator.
How farmers Backed Stassen
i We farmers of Minnesota have been solid behind Harold
Stassen. The best proof of this waa hia sweeping victory in
the farming areas of Minnesota in his third election after we had
hod the chance to see how he acted aa Governor for two terms.
In his third election as our Governor the farmers
backed him overwhelmingly For eiample, in the
corn-bog county of Martin down near the Iowa line
Staaaen received 4,881 votes to 1,717 for hia opponent.
In the dairy county of Goodhue on the Wisconsin
line Staaaen received 6,536 votes to 2,711 for his op
; ponent.
'it In the wheat and diversified agricultural county
V of Rock on the South Dakota line, he received 1,819
' votes to 471 for his opponent.
I And in the big agricultural county of Oiler Tail
up on the North Dakota line he received 6,327 votoa
to 4,580 for hia opponent. In the state as a whole he
received 409,800 votes to 299,917 for his opponent.
In the Township of Eureka, which Is a complete
township of milk producers in his home county of
Dakota, where they had known him for two terma as
county attorney and two terms as governor, he re
ceived a remarkable vote of 158 to 27 for his oppo
nent. ,
We know we speak for the farmers of Minnesota aa a
whole when we recommend him to you aa the best man for
President of the United Status, in your May 21st primary.
With our neighborly best wishes,
Sincerely, ., .
