A. relative to marketing this kind ot timber. Many of them have neier sold timoer before and'do not know with whom to taks the matter up. The government however has Just Issued i bulletin giving the names of firms in each state who have government contracts for furnishing walnut timber. There are two firms in Illinois, one being the Langton Lumber Co, at Pekln, 111., and the other, T.

A. Foley at Paris, 111. The government suggests timber owners take matter up with these companies before cutting the trees. Most of these firms prefer to buy In carload lots. A ear- load usually contains from 3 to thousand feet.

To determine ths autfr ber of board feet In one of these logs, the government advises using Doyke system. This Is to take the diameter of ths In Inches at the small end of log, subtract four inches from this diameter, taks one-fourth of ths remainder and square it, multiply the result by ths nomber of feet In the length of the log Thus, a log 1C Inches In dl- amter at small end and 10 feet long should contain ninety board feet.
