Farmers Wasting
Too Much Forests,
Says w. K. Beichler

w. K Beichler, State Forester,
stated yesterday that about 80 per
cent of the logs, pulpwood, poles,
piling and other forest products
used by North Carolina forest in
dustries come from farm woodland
and other small timberland build
ings. However, he made this sob
ering statement; 'Three out of
every four owners of those small
timber tracts are cutting their tim
ber destructively.s What trees are
left are finished-off by repeated
wild fires and unrestricted grazing
of young seedlings by cattle, hogs
and sheep"
The State Forester said that
much of the destructive cutting il
our State can be blamed on the
lack of adequate technical assist
ance to the farm owners. Under the
Norris-Dorsey Farm Forestry Act Z
farm foresters comparatively en-
ployed by the State and Federal
government are giving free service
to farmers and small woodland
owners. Beichler estimates that to
adequately advise North Carolina's s
farm owners a total of 80 forest
ers are needed. sour farm foresters
are so few that they must spread
their work far too thin," he said
"Some have a backing of as many
as Is untitled requests for aid from
farmers"
The reliance that our forest in
dustries place on the timber that
comes from farm woodlands makes
it imperative that they be properly
managed if they are to continue to
sustain these industries.
The State Forester said that with
it's limited means the State faces a
big job in helping farmers to ()
reforest barren and understocked
lands, (2) protect their lands from
wildfires, (3) reduce the damage to
young trees from grazing, and (4)
refrain from overcutting their tim
ber. "We are doing our best to
serve Tar Heel farmers with the
farm foresters that we have. How
ever, with this limited help, we can
only hope but to scratch the sur
face of the huge forestry job that
we must do if we are to insure our
forest farmers of steady income
from their timberlands, and our
forest industries of continuous
supply of wood.

The guests appeared in cos
tune: the girls wore long calico

colorful picture as they swing and
sway according to the rhythm OF
the music and the mood of the
caller. A famous caller from
Denver, Mr.. Emil Lindseth, was
the guest of Mr.. and Mrs. Baker
last night. On Thursday evening
