During the past 30 years the
lumber business has been made
over, modernized and re-tooled
in its basic thinking as well as
in its production processes. Un­
der today’s American forest man­
agement, timber is a soil crop—
not a mine to be worked out vein
by vein—and lumber remains its
basic product.
The lumber business like the
grain business, stands for pro­
ductive use of the land. Lumber­
men all over America are grow­
ing trees as a specific, planned
part of their business. In the
woods the forest engineer, with
college diploma and shield of
membership in the Society of
American Foresters, is as familiar
a figure as the boss logger of
tradition.
A picture of the lumber business
today in terms of manufacture,
sales and uses—that is, simply
as a commodity business—would
be old hat. All forecasts on lum­
ber agree that its present and
future problem is to maintain
available supplies of commercial
trees of sawtimber sizes (which
vary regionally) to me-t demand.
And all authorities agree that
the first job in meeting this
problem is to raise trees and
protect them from fire.

parison with wheat. The raw
material grows from planned re­
seeding amid the stubble of the
cutovers.
The sawmill is the
threshing machine of lumbering.
Wheat goes chiefly into bread,
which people eat to live. Lumber
goes principally into housing,
which people build to live in.
To make sure that there w41
be ample supplies of timber for
the future, the lumber business
has taken leadership in forestry
and the foresters in the public
service follow its course.
Mil­
lions of acres that were consider­
ed valueless 20 years ago are now
being replanted or reseeded and
given protection against forest
fires.
Today the individual user of
wood products—even the casual
newspaper reader—has a responsi­
bility for tree growing. The house
you dwell in, the desk you write
on, this paper itself, could not
be made without leaving stumps
and rubbish on forest land, even
the bread you eat has its stubble
and straw on the wheat fields.
The lumber business is growing
more trees among the stumps
for more houses more desks, more
books, more newspapers. These
things are growth of the soil,
fruit of the forests, the end uses
