OUTLOOK FOR LUMBER USERS
Not Very Bright, According to National Industrial
Conference, Which Makes Gloomy Report.
The United States is using up the standing timber
of the country six times as rapidly as it can be grown
and the cost of lumber is certain to show a vast in-
crease, according to the statement of the National
Industrial Conference Board in New York.
The
statement is as follows:
"The problem of our lumber supply, its protection
and its renewal, is one of the big problems before in-
dustry," says the board's report. "During the last
150 years, which span the development of the United
States as a nation, the great virgin timber resources
of the country have been wasted, sometimes willingly,

"It is estimated that the continental United States
originally contained 5,200 billion board feet of timber.
This amount has now been reduced to 1,600 billion
feet of virgin timber and 600,000,000,000 feet of culled
and second growth stumpage, amounting all told to
42 per cent of the estimated original stands. The
original forests of the United States covered an area
of 82,000,000,000 acres, which have been reduced to
about 469,000,000 acres, of which 138,000,000 acres
are in virgin forests, 250,000,000 acres contain culled
and second growth timber, or small trees of no mer-
chantable value, and 81,000,000 acres are of practically
no value.
"Aside from the major problem arising out of the
reduction in the amount of available timber, the geo-
graphical distribution of the remaining timber in for-
est land is of prime importance. Sixty per cent of
all of our timber and 75 per cent of the remaining
virgin growth lie west of the great plains. On the
other hand, the greater part of the manufactures of
the country are situated east of the great plains. The
relative inaccessibility of much of the remaining tim-
ber in terms of transportation cost to the principal
consuming regions underlies the cost of forest
production."
