Redwood Men Are At It
While the Rest of the Country Talks They Are Reforesting Cutover Areas
Fron tho B, F, ChroniclP.
While the rest of the country talks about the necessity of reforestation, California lumbermen are engaged in a practical experiment in Mendocino and Humboldt counties. liedwood planting is going forward there on an increasing scale following results already obtained, which are said to demonstrate the economic feasibility of reforestation over large areas in that region.
I1 is granted that the redwood lumbermen have the advantage-of unusually favorable conditions for reforestation. The redwood grows rapidly, makes valuable timber, and the hillsides that produce it are nearly worthless for anything else.
TFe most interesting period of the experiment will arrive when the redwoods are nearly, but not quite, ready to be cut. They will then have a considerable value. Assessors will cast an eye on them. How well can they stand the taxes in that period after they have begun to have value and before their owner can r'ealize ?
That's the nub of the whole question of reforestation. The redwood men feel that they can get over this hump. It is not vet so certain in the cases of other kinds of timber.
Swayne Company Opens 1925 Season
The Swayne Lumber Company has started the 1925 season lumber cut at its mill here.
'Warren Swayne, general manager of the company, said that the compiny would operate on a slightly increased scale as compared to former years. Wood crews now are felling logs that will keep the local mill running until next winter.
FIXIN' Speaking of fixingOf changing what isThere are lots of tricks In the lumber biz. New Floors belowA modern doorYou would know What it was before. It isn't rashAt all-at allTo cut big sash In the parlor wall. Or fix a seat on The old front stoopWhere love's young dream Can loop the loop. A very few figgers And you'll decideOn a screen with the chiggers And gnats outside. This change will help Both comfort and health, It takes little woodAnd not much wealth.
