 Practically only dead timber. both that standing and that lying on the ground, is used for fuel. No other trees are cut down for fuel unless specially marked for destruction by the forester When a purchase is made the trees and timber to be used are designated by the supervisor. After being cut into cord lengths (the wood Is, of course, cut by the purchaser) and corded. the wood must be inspected by the forester. who stamps "U. S." with a hammer on one stick or more sticks in each cord as a certificate of inspection. Any one using wood or timber not inspected. or cutting down any green timber not marked, or sell ing or otherwise disposing of any wood or timber not marked or inspected. is liable to arrest and punishment
