Excerpt from Pulpwood Production in Lakes States Counties, 1960 Timber cutting rates vary from year to year. Frequent measure ment is required to maintain a current, useful picture of the balances between timber cut, timber growth, and desirable out. To partially meet this need the Station publishes summaries of the output of various timber products as often as reliable data can be acquired. Reports of pulpwood output by States have been published each year since 1946. This is the second report on pulpwood cut by counties in the Lake States region (see maps following this page). All of the 59 mills using Lake States timber in 1960 furnished figures on their wood receipts by State and county of origin. The help of the many pulp and paper mill officials who took part in this canvass is gratefully acknowledged. Thanks are also due to Ray Pfeifer, Forest Survey Coordinator, Michigan Department of Conservation, for collecting data for the Michigan pulp mills. The volume of timber cut annually varies by areas within States. Although many products are difficult to trace to county of origin, pulp wood origin can be traced with good accuracy. Knowing the production of pulpwood, which'is a major Lake States product, makes it possible to estimate the production of all products and the resulting timber cut by counties and county groups. The last section in this report presents, for each Forest Survey district, estimates of the timber cut for all products from the six principal pulpwood species. The tables are followed by charts comparing this estimate with the most recent previous estimate of timber cut. While not as reliable as the pulpwood production figures, which came from a loo-percent canvass, the total timber cut estimates give an indi cation of the trend of cutting in these important species.
