Dy the following report Of proceedings

template increasing their supply by
sinking additional wells in North La

time to "A discussion Of projects TO

Although contract, in blank. as to
price and terms, from Colonel Faw,
of Horse Creek nOtOriciy, was On the
clerks desk, 1t was not even accorded
the courtesy o. Il pcrusal, and IL Is
evident that that project will not be

Arkansas Valley Water Supply and
Power Company were among those
present. and as this proposed supply
Is from the same source As that OF
Colonel Faw, it is probable that 1t

Statistics gathered by the Bureau Of
the Census and the Forest Service
show that the quantities OF timber
used last year for lumber, shingles.
ties. pulpwood, cooperage stock. mine
timbers, lath, distillation, veneer,
poles, tanning, and turpentine and
rosin, expressed in board feet, reach a
total OF approximately so billion board
feet. While these drains upon the
forest are known with reasonable GER
tainty, there are Others OF which there
is no record. These are the demand
for posts, fuel and domestic purposes,
regarding which it is more dificult to
obtain information. because the pro-
ducts often pass through no market,
but are consumed on the farm where
they were produced. Careful esti-
mates, however, place the total of
wood used for fuel alone at an equiv
alent of so billion board feet a year.
