What Is My
Timber WOrth?
Bulletin Out

Most farmers, wouldn't sell
their livestock, crops, or other
farm produce without doing a
little figuring on market value.
But many farmers. says Carl
j. Holcomb forester at Virginia
Polytechnic Institute. sell their
standing timber with only
vague idea ct what it's worth.
An effort to correct this some
what strange situation is seen
in the publication Of new bul-
letin at VPI, What is the Value
of My Standing Timber?" The
publication is unusual in the
sense that it not only gives
pointers on estimating value, but
also gives suggestions on how to
increase the value.
For instance, the bulletin
points out that small trees have
less volume per inch of diameter
than larger trees. The products
which can be cut from small
trees are limited. Only pulpwood
excelsior, mine props. posts.
ties, etc. can be cut from
small trees, and only a low
Price can be paid fer the stump
age. So. the bulletin advises, lie.
your trees grow a few more
years to sawlog or veneer log
size and to a much higher value.
Sell small trees only when thin
ming to improve the stand.
The bulletin should be Of value
to the buyer Of stumpage as
well as the seller, Holcomb
says. When an operator buys a
tract Of timber marked for sale,
he must figure what products
can be cut from the trees and
how much it will cost to get
them to the mill before knowing
how much he can pay.
Copies Of the bulletin are avail
able from county agricultural
agents or from the VPI Agricul-
tural Extension Service, Blacks
burg.

Farmers Should Act

More flue-cmed tobacco is go
Ing under loan this year than in
any year since 1856, according
to the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture. James E. Warren,
Chairman Of Virginia's Agricul-
tural Sterilization. and Conser-
walton Committee. said this is
rejecting unstable. conditions in
flue-cured tobacco markets. This
situation is considered an in
dustry wide problem affecting
all belts.
Some 2l5 million pounds of
1962-crop flue- cured tobacco had
gone under the loan program
this marketing season through
November 8. According to pres
ent indications. between 225 and
go million pounds will go under
loan by the end of this season.
This amounts to about II per
cent of the estimated total crop
of 1872 million pounds which is
the highest amount going under
loan since the 1855 and 1856
crops. In more recent years,
from 1859 through 1861, only
about to 6 per cent of each
crop went into the loan pro-
gram.
Yield Scars
According to the latest esti-
mate. 1875 pounds per acre will
be harvested this year, which is
the highest on record. Yield is
up over 400 pounds per acre

on one of the reasons for the
current trouble in flue-cured to-
bacco," Warren said.
He said that many growers
were preoccupied with produc-
ing quantity at the expense of
quality. This is being don
through too much concentration
on one variety of high yielding
tobacco; excessive use of sucker
controls; too much fertilizer; too
great a use of irrigation water
In some areas: improper topping
and spacing the plants too close

What Can You
Afford To Pay
For A Bull?

What can the beef cattleman
afford to pay for bull? A good
rule of thumb. says George Lit
ton. head of the Virginia Poly
technic Institute animal huSban-
dry department. is 10 per cent
| of the value of the COW herd.
Bulls on some farms may be
worth $1,000, but on others they
may not earn half this much.
! 1t depends, says LittOn, on how
well the calves are managed
and marketed.
If calves have enough to eat
to gain to the limit of their in
helited ability, they will pay for
a high priced bull. If they can
only make average growth be-
cause of grazing on broomsedge,
briars, thornbrush, and gullies-
there is little use to buy a high
priced sire.
But, when pastures are i'm

Bulls need SO per cent more
feed than cows and they should
be Wintered by themselves until
breeding time. They should be
fed legume hay and silage to re-
place the weight lost during
season, says Litton. Three to
five pounds of grain per day for
a couple of months would be ad-
visable, he acds.
Bulls should gain liz pounds
per day when properly fer. and
when not being used for breed
ing. Oats is a favorite grain for
bulls because of the minerals,
vitamins. and bulk it adds to
the ration. Corn and barley can
be used. but with more care.

He points out that large guam
