appraised value 40 q minimum price.
The minimum prices set for the
Rainier timber vary from so cents to
sl.5o per thousand feet, according TO
the kind of timber. These are stump.
age prices-that is, the purchaser buys
the trees on the stump and does all tho
logging. but pays according to tho
board foot measure Of the logs. The
government aims to allow the manu-
fscturer liberal profit on the basis
that numbering involves q good deal Of
business rick, and the minimum stump.
age prices are flxed accordingly. Often,
however, competitive bids raise the
price above the advertised minimum. =
One of the provisions of the contract
which the successful bidder for the
Rainier timber will enter into will bs
that II market prices advance material
ly the Governments Chief Forester
may, after the sale has run three years.
require reasonable readjostment OF
the stumpage prices up to an added
fifty cents per thousand. The object
of this stipulation is to prevent loss to
the Government-that is, to the public
and an undue profit to the purchaser
thru lonR-term contracts entered into
on rising market Provision against
such speculative profits is regarded 40
especially necessary in view Of the long
term sales now sometimes made to get
purchasers for large bodies OF inacoes-
sible timber.
For the Rainier sale the cutting
period allowed 10 only five years, since
the quantity Of timber involved-ap-
proximately 100000 board feet-doss
not call for an extended operation.
One National Forest sale made this
year WAS for 100000 board feet and
the purchasers were allowed QUITTING
