Much Timber Cut
For Pulpwood Use
is Being Wasted

College Station, Raleigh, Nov. 49,
When a farmer "clear-cuts" tract
of timber for pulpwood, he is throw
ing money away, sNid r. H. Page, Jr.,
assistant extension forester at State
College.
Yet the offer of pulp mills to buy
timber, may, induce a farmer to cut off
big and little trees for pulp in orer
to make a sale at once, Page continu-
ed.
A stand of trees requires wedding
and thinning just thessame as cotton
patch, he said, and normally the wood
obtained through these thinning OPP
serations may abe sold for pulpwood.
But the larger trees will usually
bring from two to four times as much
when sold for saw logs as they will
when sold for pulp, he pointed out.
aAnd while the pulp mills will take
wood as small as four, inches in dla-
meter at the little end of four to
five-foot stick, Page added it is I'M
wise to clear out stands or cut the
small trees when they are growing at
their fastest rate. :.
When cutting, trees for pulpwooo, :.
is a good practice to leave ABOUT zCo

When pulpwood is cut from dense
young stands, the stands are lmprov-

"You are in luck" Lionel had
said: and then we had talked OF
other things.

feeling that had been a bit bonn
bastic. and after that 1 was care
full not to speak of what I con-
ceived to be my glittering pros
poets. Yet 1 think Lionel let 1t be
known among his friends what the
future held for me. A good many
of the men asked about my uncle's
ranch-it seemed to give a sort OF
spectacular Importance to my
otherwise inconspicuous person

acres, surrounded by a retinue of

In a way, this vision Of my fu-
ture gave me self-confdence. and
the intimacy which grew up be-

feeling of security.

undoubtedly, the thing which tied

he accepted. Yet I know now that
i should never have given in such
great measure if around him and
over him and all about him had
not been the glamor of his rela-

set so high in my thoughts.
Our literary adventures became

and he would stare at me and say:
"Some day we'll write a play to-

We started a play, indeed, and
worked late into the night, smok-
ing cigarets, and putting much ink

Thumbing Their Way

One Of the most dangerous feat
ures Of highway travel Is the great
number of young men who are
thumbing their way from place to
place.
Many Of them stand almost in
the way Of approaching cars to at
tract attention. Some day there
will be serious accidents.
What is to be done about the sit
uation is a question. Many states
and communities forbid thumbing.
They make 1t unlawful. That meth
cd has an element Of harshness to
those who wish rides and to the
tender hearted motorists who real
ly wish to give a lift to those who
need and deserve it.
Most thumbing is not necessary.
Much of it is done by those who
could purchase transportation but
prefer to ride on the other fellows
gasoline and power. There are peo-
pie who will thumb their way
through life. They will ride off
anyone who will carry them and
live off from anyone who will sus-
tain them. Such people usually
thumb their noses at their benefact-
ors.
There is but one suggestion.
Those who can pay their way
should travel on their own resourc-
es. That is sensible and self respect
ing. Those who need rides should
ask for them in a way which Is
considerable of safety. Those who
pick up wayfarers should do so in a
manner consistent with safety
