The second growth has shown
remarkable gains after the aider
mature timber lias been re
moved, releasing the young
trees.

His property on Sykes creek
about two miles from Wimer is
being logged by himself with
an assist on the loading by the
neighbor's wife who runs the
tractor for him. His timber is
all virgin growth and is being
logged to leave the healthy
trees for future harvests.
