Burned Forests Yield 13 Billion Feet Of Timber
Ten years ago a disastrous forest fire swept through four hundred square miles of this vast Western American timberland. Thousands of great fir trees remain standing stripped and blackened by flames. Today lumbermen are reclaiming these fire blasted trunks. Cutting them and getting them to market. Powerful equipment and skilled lumberjacks turn the wasted and once forgotten land into beehive of activity. Giants of the forest reclaimed from the dead now on their way to serve the war needs of the nation.
