White Pine And California Sugar Pine

CALIFORNIA WHITE PINE and CALI· FORNIA SUGAR PINE grow in Cali· fornia and the Klamath Falls, Oregon, district.

In this region there stands the prodig• ious total of approximately 137 billion feet of timber, composed of 105 billion feet of California White Pine, and 32 billion feet of California Sugar Pine.

The natural growth and reproduction is adding to this reservoir of wood supply at the rate of 250 million feet annually.

Fair estimates show that the supply of these unsurpassed woods, at the present rate of production, will last for fully two centuries.

Reforestation is being carried on most sively in these woods, and it is the hope of lum• bermen that the supply will be perpetuated.
