Abstract

I have no revolutionary ideas to offer concerning the management of white and yellow birch. The most I can hope to accomplish is to acquaint you with Brown Company's current and past operating procedures in northern hardwoods, and to relate some of my observations of the results we are getting from harvesting substantial volumes of birch and other commercial species from nearly 800,000 acres of timberland in northern Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont.
