A Real Style Find
Merchandising Wood
How is the owner of a farm
woodlot to "merchandise" his
crop? How is the investor in any
type of small forest ownership
to finance the practice of for
estry on his land? On every for
est acre of private ownership the
first questions are: What wood is
salable, where can it be sold, and
for how much?
Believe me, and I speak from
experience as a three-time forest
land owner, the answers have
more bearing on the practice of
private forestry in these United
States than any other facts that
can be brought up.
Forestry must be paid for. It
is paid for on publicly owned
lands through the collection of
taxes and their disbursement by
government agencies. It is paid
for on privately owned lands out
of capital investment or from
sales returns.
This towering, overshadowing
fact of facts in our American for
est economy is amazingly by
passed by foresters in all the
branches of the profession. It is
most of all avoided by foresters
who are charged with the pro-

motion of farm forestry.
Look at the Record
Now I am going to tell a tale
out of school. Eight years ago the
American Forest Products Indus
tries organization was set going
to educate the public on the gen
eral forestry principle that trees
are a crop, on the fact that the
forest is the one natural resource
that, replenishes itself, and to tell
the good news of many progress
programs of American private
forest management.
For four years this educational
work was conducted with in
creasing appreciation by the pub
lic in general, and particularly
by educators. Then, the directors
and technical folks of AFPI met,
in November, 1945, to add an
"action program."
It was decided to (1) carry in
formation on the best forest prac
tices to small foiest land owners,
including farmers, (2) "encourage
an industrial program for the or
derly marketing of farm forest
products," (3) enlist cooperation
from all groups and agencies in
terested in forestry for the ad
vancement of the entire program.
This was the stuff I'd been
wanting to see put into effect
ever since my hard luck as a
small forest land owned. And
now I'm" glad to say that No. 1
has been made a real job for four
years b. this highly efficient
outfit, all the while earning more
plaudits from educators, farm
leaders, state foresters and the
U. S. forest service.
But No. 2 has remained prac
tically a dead letter. The reason,
I think, is that until recently the
merchandising of wood was a
dead letter in the education and
experience of the professional,
technically-trained forester and
forest engineer. The government
forester is still all but prohibited
from calling on retail lumber
dealers in the course of his pro
fessional work. The industry-employed
forester, a freer man, nev
ertheless commonly steers clear
of forest products salesmen, their
organizations, their meetings,
and their literature, and would
not be caught dead reading a for
est products sales promotion ad
vertisement. Thus the AFPI "More Trees
for America" program remains
unknown to the sales and adver
tising departments of forest in
dustry, and too often farmers fall
into the belief that it is just an
other government program in
forest education.
The Farmer's Friend
There's nothing seriously
wrong with all this. I hasten to
assert. There's a lack, that's all.
To fill the lack first of all it
should be recognized that in this
region the farm forest-owner's
best friends, and all forestry's
best friends, arc the west coast
lumber companies that advertise
west coast lumber all over the
country and have staffs of sales
men "merchandising" it.
This sort of marketing effort
helps everybody who has a crop
of wood to sell from his land
in western Oregon and Washing
ton. Such effort does not build up
consumer interest in just one
company's lumber but in all lum
ber that is sold as douglas fir,
west coast hemlock, western red
cedar and sitka spruce.

and today announced plans
for observance of Tourist Host
week. May 22 to 28, which was
recently designated by Gov.
Douglas McKay. A record
number of tourist inquiries hat
been received by the travel in

highway commission. In ob

By Donald J. Sterling
Managing Editor Oregon Journal
We are a nation on wheels.
And we may thank the gasoline
engine for that. Largely because
of the automobile, the intangible
thing called tourist travel has de
veloped into America's third
largest industry.
When the season beckons and
we have the leisure, we step on
the starter and set forth to see
the sights that appeal to us. The
beckoning is of wider range in
view of the current emphasis
upon longer vacation periods.
Few regions in the country
have more to offer the touring
motorist than has Oregon. Nation-wide
surveys indicate that
39.8 per cent of the vacationists
prefer the lakes, 36.8 per cent
the mountains and 30.3 per cent
the seashore. Oregon has all
three and many other attrac
tions in abundance and within
hailing distace of each other.

miles are paved, provide the ac

modations cater to the tourist de
mand. More than three quarters of a
million out-of-state cars visited
Oregon during 1949. The great
majority of these were registered
in the neighboring states of Cal
ifornia and Washington.
These visitors and others from
more distant parts set the pace
for Oregonians themselves. Let
the emphasis for 1950 tourist
traffic be for Oregonians to see
Oregon.
Then is nothing new in this
approach, but it needs emphasis
and more emphasis. All too many
of us have not availed ourselves
of the pleasures of knowing the
great outdoors within the con
fines of the 96,000 square mile
area that is Oregon.
Let us at least make a start as
the summer season approaches.
Let us see Oregon for ourselves.
