We also* tried to show where government foresters and other agencies can help the farmer to overcome these problems and make the farm woodlot an integral part of farm life. To continue could be said products sold measured in product. Saw-logs, the chief products from farm woodlands are sold on the basis not of a raw products unit, but with this theme it that all agricultural from the farm are units of the raw of a manufactured unit, the board foot, which is not generally under stood, Unscrupulous log buyers fre quently take advantage of this and pay less than fair value for the raw product, The woodland owner thus acquires an unfavorable opinion of the productive capacity of that part of his ( farm devoted to growing a forest crop. . ’ Any department of Lands and For ests Zone Forester will be glad to spend some time with any landowner to show him how to measure logs..
