Forest ranger urges broadbent grange to value small woodlands
Ronald K. Stickney district forest ranger from Powers addressed Broadbent Grange on forest conservation and world timber trends. He highlighted that most marketable timber is west of the Mississippi and that growth lags drainage due to fire disease and cutting. He praised farm woodland management and noted 57 percent of US forest land is in small ownership. He cited examples where owners profit from forest products and stressed timber as a coming crop. The meeting included degree ceremonies for Stickney and Marilyn Roberts and plans for new candidates. Refreshments were served after the session.
