The article reveals differences in quality and utility between virgin growth and second-growth lumber, highlighting critical implications for foresters in managing resources.
The forester who strives for volume production and neglects a consideration of the probable grade and quality of the second-growth lumber product may find his efforts misdirected. Second-growth lumber from most species differs markedly from that of virgin growth and its utility varies as a consequence. The study reported in this article, although limited to one species, is timely and important in that it directs attention to the differences between the two classes of lumber. 2
