Book Description

Excerpt from Foreign Trade Study of the Forest Products Industries The forest resources of the world are largely an unknown quantity, the only available figures are given in total acres of forest lands. Such figures really convey little, if any, information as to the world supply of saw timber. While it is known that Russia, Africa, South and Central America contain vast forests, not even estimates in board feet measure have been made of the amount of saw timber available in these remote regions. The above 1928 figures are taken from the Forest Service survey. Other figures are from the Bureau of the Census.
