Excerpt from Conservative Lumbering at Sewanee, Tennessee Four more years of lumbering remain to be done, and for three years at least there is an assured annual profit of or half of what the University was formerly willing to accept for all of the timber. In a word, timber formerly valued at will have been made to yield a profit of about $7, 000. The high profits were made possible through the careful planning of the lumbering in order to prevent waste and to secure the largest returns from the merchantable trees. In the cutting, provision was made that the land should again produce valuable timber. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
