Cqlifornio Now Soid to Ronk Second in Lumber Output

San Francisco (Special)-California today ranks second in the nation in lumber production. Almost 400 billion board feet of sawtimber-enough to supply all the wood needs of the United States for the next 10 years if neither state or nation were to grow a single board foot of ns\ / \Meedare standing in the commercial forests of the Golden State. 'Ihese facts were cited in June by D. S. Denman of San Francisco, a trustee of American Forest Products Industries, Washington, D.C., the national Tree Farm sponsor.

Denman said the forests of the United States today are growing more wood than is being removed from them by harvest and through losses to fire, insects and disease.
