Growth Could
Be Doubled
In j. ). Forests

WASHINGTON, D. C.-In the
next few weeks more than 100. 900
leading U. c. citizens will receive
copies OF the latest unit in Ameri-
can Forest Products Industries for
est information series-:..Progress
In American Forest Management"
Extensively illustrated, the new
36-page brochure provides an an
alysiS of the condition Of over a mil
lion and one-haf acres Of privately
owned, industrially operated, forest
land.
"A new progressive evolution in
the management of industrial forest
lands is under way and has been
gfor many years." says the booklet
also points to the profession
al forester's belief that u. S. tim
ber-type lands could, under proper
conditions, double the current rate
OF new wood growth.
Forestry industry is abandoning
the old philosophy Of cutting tim
Der and moving on. It Is settling
down with permanent stake in the
community" the Introductory por-
ton Of the booklet asserts.
One of the highlights of the for
est analysis is an explanatory sum-
mary Of the survey recently made
by State Foresters and others > in
cooperation with National Lumber
Manufacturers Association, showing
that only 6.3 per cent of the tim
berland in industrial ownership is
presently in wholly unproductive
condition. The booklet also calls at
tention to the fact that forest own
ership is primarily a business Of
relatively small units, with less than
Is per cent of the total area COM
posed Of holdings in excess Of S.
600 acres. 49,
In addition to the text, these and
numerous other significant points
are graphically displayed by charts
and photographs.
Supplementing the general an
alysis of forest conditions and man
agement techniques, approximately
half of the booklet is devoted to
a series of specific examples
case histories Of Is companies OPP
Grating in all forested sections.
These also are documented with
photographs.
Prepared specifically to meet the
thoughtful standards of profession
al people and other civic leaders,
the booklets distribution will be
confined largely to foresters, econ
omists, bankers, teachers, architects,
lawyers, writer's and editors.
Part OF the booklet has been re-
produced, however, in an inexpen-
sive form for wider distribution,
under the title, Our Forest Future"
The condensed version, OF 20 pages,
is. only 3/4 inches wide and Az
inches deep, which makes it suit
able for inclusion in pay envelopes
or similar containers, and bulk
quantities of it are available on re-
quest to American Forest Products
Industries, 1919 Eighteenth Street,
N. w., Washington s, D. c. Smaller
quantities Of the larger booklet,
Progress in American Forest Man
agement', also will be available on
request for complimentary mailings
by forest industry companies.

Income Stabilized
By Crop Insurance
Greater Expenditures
Involved During War

Planting war crops means added
expenditures and business risks.
Farmers must buy new equipment
and use more fertilizers and other
materials. All are scarce.
When cotton or wheat crops are in
sured up to SO or rs per cent of aver
age yields, farmers are in q better
position to plan production Of all
the commodities they produce. With
some return on wheat or cotton crops
certain, farmers can afford to make
more acres available for war pro-
duction.
Thus crop insurance stabilizes
income, helps the grower to
meet his obliga tons, and helps
provide for financing crops es-
sential to winning the war.
Many wheat and cotton growers
planted vital war crops on part
OF their land for the f1rst time last
year-and did it with an assured in
come from their regular money
crops.
Through the Federal Crop Insur-
ance corporation, they were insured
against failure Of their cotton or

Newlyweds Find
Romance, Cash on
Their | Honeymoon
Take Harvesting Outfit on
Trip From Kansas to
' Canadian Farms.

UODGE CITY, kAN.-Ihe mar
vest moon that guided their 5000
acre honeymoon has brought both
romance and cash to Ray Grouse
and his l8-year-old bride.
Married last June, the Dodge City
custom harvester and his wife left
on their wedding trip accompanied
by:
Three grain combines Ito cut and
thresh grain tn single opera
tom.
Three tractors.
Three trucks.
A house trailer, coupled to their
automobile.
A harvest crew OF 10 men.
They toured ripening fields Of
grain all the way from southern
Kansas to the chill farms OF Sas-
katchewan, across the Canadian
border, where they've just finished
their brisk race with winters heavy
SHOWS.
Bride Did Mans Work.
Mrs. Grouse did the work OF
full-time harvest hand at many OF
the stops, as well as running the
cook shack for the crew. Any Ford
county farm girl, she explained, can
run tractors or combines as well
as the next man.
The caravan that covered farm
roads Of Kansas, Colorado, Nebras-
ka, the Dakotas and Canada through
the long, hot summer included four
units. Each OF the three trucks,
Mrs. Grouse said, carried tractor
and pulled combine. Their auto
mobile and trailer was the fourth
unit Of the procession.
Harvesting was swift. 1.-The feet
would move into a field, and in
jiffy tractors and combines would
be moving and threshing the wheat,
and the trucks would be hauling the
grain to the bins" Mrs. Grouse re-
lated. They kept their trailer parked
at the nearest town; the crew lived
IN hotel rooms at each stop.
Overall-clad, the young bride did
the cooking in her trailer kitchen.
She was unworried by the number
OF diners-she used to cook at home.
and she was the oldest Of Is chill
dren.
Raced Against Snow.
1t was late September when they
were winding up the North Dakota
harvest, Grouse wrote friends here
and the provincial harvest labor
committee Of Saskatchewan asked
him to come over and help US"
The speedy combine outfit prom
ised victory in the race with oncom-
ing SHOWS, he said, although such
outfits had never before been al
lowed to cross the line. In wartime,
precedents are broken, he added;
and the necessary clearance papers
at the border we're quickly made
available.
Crouse's first Canadian job was
a 3,OOO-acre wheatfleld near Rou-
leau, Saskatchewan; the pay, 81 an
acre. This was early October, but
snow already had made the grain
difficult to cut, he wrote. He used
special pickup attachments on the
combines to lift the doWnbeaten
grain, he explained.
His permit from provincial author
tiles would allow him to operate in
Canada until February rs, "but we
have heard of these Saskatchewan
winters and we don't fancy being
showed in"
So the honeymoon caravan has
gathered its last harvest-until next
summer, at least.

Where handwriting Is done, q
hooded or small top milk bucket Is
preferred. This type Of bucket will
exclude about so per cent of the
number Of bacteria which usually get
into the milk during the milking

all other utensils used in handling

wheat crops from such hazards as
insects, drouth, food, FIRE, hail, plant
disease, Winter-kill and wind.
Participation in the wheat insur-
ance program has increased each
year for the past three years. In
l94l, Al, 1888 contracts were written
with wheat growers. -
The cotton crop is being insured
again this year. Because the ma
ton has had cotton SURPRISES in the
past, 1t is not generally recognized
that crop losses cost growers an
average Of $50 million dollars annu-
ally. Insurance of the 1912 cotton
crop on the same basis as the wheat
crop will mean much to the 10 mil
hon who depend directly on cotton.
Insured growers pay prcmi-
ums based on their crop loss ex-
perience. A commodity note en-
bodied In the three-year contract
guarantees the premium will be
paid. Payments may be made
In either cash or the commodity.
II an annual installment is not
paid, the equivalent may be de-
Quoted from the indemnity II

ment due the farmer for partici-

paid with a certificate OF indemnity.
This is convertible into cash or the

As is the case with other phases
OF the farm program, the crop in
