More Interest Shown in Private Reforestation
Dr George W Peavy president emeritus of Oregon State College reported growing interest in private reforestation in western Oregon. Hearings considered classifying about 40 000 acres of logged land as reforestation land. Under current law owners may have cut over lands classified for reforestation with taxes of 5 cents per acre year. When timber is harvested counties receive 12 percent yield tax of logs value. County officers favor the classification and cooperate with state forestry officials to implement the law.
