the production of timber ON the
other hand, it frequently happens that
woodlots which yield nothing but
little firewood for home consumption
are permitted to occupy valuable land.
In deciding whether such lots shouiu
be cleared and titled. the cost OF clear
ing. the increased value of the cleared
land, the interest on the investment
the salable value of the timber prod
ucts, and the added expense for fire
wood which will follow the disap-
pearance of the timber must all be
taken into account With unwoodeo
areas. the ACCESSIBILITY of bringing
them under the pillow may be de-
termined by comparing the probable
cost with the market price of good
arabic land in the neighborhood-
Obviously. the higher the price OF
land rises the more incentive there Is
for the farmer to avoid waste in the
utilization of it. 1t is significant, now
ever, that the investigations OF the de-
partment of agriculture have shown
that, irrespective of the price, ten
ants put a greater part of their land
TO productive use than owners.
To anyone who IS buying or leasing
land, then, the important question /:
