Vast virgin areas sacrificed yearly by lump-ermen
Washington May 31 Nearly one half of U S land area once forested has dwindled to about 470 million acres of timber and millions of unproductive acres. A 1922 Agriculture Department yearbook blames timber harvesting for resource depletion. Fire destruction tops 8,000 acres yearly and much lumber is cut in virgin stands. The piece notes idle cut over lands raise costs, but foresees uses for wood in chemical research and potential fuel alcohol production, with possible forest regrowth returning land to timber.
