and quality of the remaining trees. Timber and pulpwood sales have been used extensively in recent years to open up the edges of access roads at little or no expense. This *daylighting" helps keep the road dry, facilitiates travel, reduces maintenance and provides a cleared area for wildlife food production. Sales of posts and rails are primarily for weeding purposes to open up and improve the species composition of small stunted hardwood stands. Browse production from stump sprouting in these selectively cut areas is quite rapid and the beneficial effect continues for several years afterward. Under the Commission’s current timber management program, sales are scattered rather widely over the areas on a compartment basis. These divergent operations tend to spread the vegetative changes over a wider area than would the harvesting of fewer large sections.
