^ WHITE PINE GROWING 1$ PROFITABLE (From the Forest Serrtety 4<, 44. Le- || paitment of Agricultiii^y-^jtyytyJ .. || An an expii.ment, ' i heA^NvflHHfl | the Beaverhead nationaAjfofcBt ping the baric from the fcksca otWEMB her of lodge-pole pine trees at various' periods before they are to be" Cut for telephone poles. This girdling causes the trees to exude resin, and it is det sired to find what effect this may have as a preservative treatment for the poles. The growing of white pine, says the department of agriculture in a bulletin recently issued on the subject, is a profitable undertaking at 0 per qent compound interest. To bring in these returns, the trees may be cut when not more than from 35 to 70 years old. The original white pine forests are approaching exhaustion, according to the department, and with the growing scarcity of large sized, high grade white pine lumber, lower grades now find a ready market. Besides this, the tree grows rapidly, has a heavy yield, and is easy to manage. Second growth white pine, 50 years old, on good soil, may yield as much as 49,000 feet of lumber per acre. On medium soil, stands of the same age 36,000 board feet, and even on poor soil 24,000 feet. White pine boxboard lumber, one. of the chief products of such stands, sells for from $12 to $18 a thousand board feet. Material for making matches, another product, sells for from $17 to $18 a thousand. Even larger material, suitable for saslies and blinds, some of which may be cut from a 50 year old stand, brings from $30 and $35 a thousand feet. Second growth white pine, j the kind that is found on thousands of ' abandoned fields and pastures in New England, and that which has sprung up after lumbering in many places where the' original white pine forests stood, a value today, says the department, that makes it well worth the attention of the owner. Too often, caution the forest officers, the farmer or other land owner sells 6econd-growtli white pine stumpage for less than it is worth because he does not know how much lumber the stand is actually capable of yielding, or else is ignorant of the price the lumber and other producta will bring. Too often, also, the foresters say, the owner of secondgrowth fails to realize that perhaps by holding his pine trees for a few years longer, or by thinning it properly at the right time, he can obtain a great deal and better timber, and consequently a much larger relative return in than if he allows it to be cut clear when the first opportunity offers. The best second-growth white pine, 45 years old, will yield about 42,000 board feet per acre, but the same stand, when 55 years old, will yield 55,000 feet, an increase of 13,0^0 feet per acre in 10 years. And this is not all, for along with the quality. Not only morq, but better timis to be had. Counting in this facof quality, the lumber from an acre of best white pine, 65 years old, is worth about $1,000 against a value of $750 when the stand is 45 years old.
