Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Swedish Forests, Lumber Industry, and Lumber Export Trade
Swedish forests will never be cut out. Ou the contrary, there is no doubt that under the resent s stem of management the quantit of standing timber will e not on y maintained but increased throug reforestation, the drainage of swamp lands, and other measures.
A glance at the map of Sweden will immediately show the great advantage which that country has in its network of rivers; the dis tance from the place where loggin operations are carried on to the nearest waterway is only a few m' es. Practically eve forest triet has been exploited; there are only a few areas in t e northern most part of the country where cutting has not been carried on, owing to the fact that the rivers have been unsuitable for ?oating legs.
