Giant-SLzed Bite!
E*Vfny lumberman who has ever thrilled to the " pungent aroma of freshly sawn lumber, will recognize this familiar scene. The camera has captured the dramatic action of a huge band saw eating its way through the length of a white fir log.
The action took place at \Winton's Martell, Calif ., mill, and is one of the many interesting photos used to illustrate the new book, "Gifts of tlte Forest," by Gertrude -Wallace $flall. Photography is by John Calvin Towsley. The book is written entirely about the tree farms and lumbering operations of the \Winton Lumber Co., and is intended for use as an elementary school text book.
Myron Krueger, Professor of Forestry, University of California, has written an enlightening foreword to the book in which he points out the need for the lumbering industry to explain its "conseraation through ilJe'' activities to the young minds of America.
\7e of S(inton are proud to have played a part in this important public relations role for our industry. "Gifts of the Forest" should go a long way toward awakening public appreciation of the conservation steps being taken by our industry to preserve our important forest natural fesources.
Your lYintonnzan will be glad to show you a copy of this interesting book the next time he calls.
