: FOREST CONDITIONS
: IN CALIFORNIA

The forest reservations of California
and Oregon include greater area than
all other similar reservations in the
United States put together, and yet
they are far from covering the territory
that rational forest system would de-
mand.
The forests of California are practi-
cally confined to the mountain ranges.
Those at the northern portion of the
state correspond to forestal confiu-
ence of the Sierra and Coast ranges. AS
these mountains divide and encircle the
great interior valley of California, so
also do the forests. As far south as
Chico the valley and foothill conditions
are favorable to forest growth, espec-
tally to oaks, and where, as in some of
the enclosures of General BiGwell's at
| Chico, nature has had full sway a growth
of oak has taken possession, which may
properly be called forest"
Throughout the northern part of the
state there are several Indian reSerVa-
tions, viz, klamath, Hoopa and Round
valley, but there are no forest reserVa-
tions, or any forest management. The
government land system is so defective
in relation to the needs of modern lum-
bering, that fraud is invited, and has
been generally practiced.
The great numbering interests Of Cali
fornia are largely confined to this sec
ton. The forest growth of the Coast
range is, in the north, mainly pine and
Douglas spruce Pseudo-tsuga taxi
folia). On the interior, or valley SIDE
the oaks predCminate and take more
and more d grove-like growth.
About Humboldt the Redwood (Se-
quota sempervirens) takes entire possess
sion Of the coast front of the mountains.
This district extends south to Santa
Cruz and divides with the Duglas spruce
section of Oregon the honor of being the
greatest producer of merchantable tim
Der to the acre in the world. The tam
| bark oak, rapidly being exterminated
| 60. densflora), and the beautiful ma
drona (Arbutus meneezD are confined
| to the coast ranges. There is no forest
reservation on the coast range, except
| the insignificant Trabuco, in Orange
| county, far to the south. After passing
| Santa Cruz no forests of commercial
! Importance exist on the coast range. The
mountains are mainly covered with
! dense brush or chapparal. On the high
er ranges there are pines and spruce, and
| toward the interior oaks again assume
| possession.
| The entire coast range from San Fran
! cisco north, was gone over by the extinct
state board of forestry. and the forests
plated by sections. The maps of this
work are accurate, and may be found in
| the first and second forest reports Of that
| board.
| At the same time the forests of South
ern California were plated. These are
the only accurate maps of any portion
of the California forests. Other maps,
| however, exist.
| The great Sierra backbone of the state
| has grand forestal growth as far south
as the Tehachepi with extension by the
f, arboreal islands in the San Bernardtino
| and San Jacinto ranges.
| The principal commercial growths are
yellow pine (Pinus ponderosa), sugar
pine (Pinus lambertiana), incense cedar
| (Libocedrus decurrens), and Douglas
spruce and fr. There are several species

Rowe's Sixteen Wives

Thomas Rowe, aged 26 years, said to
be the father of ineteen children and
husband Of sixteen women, all supposed

feeling is strong and universal amongst
the irrigators and the business towns
supported by them The miners are all
favorable, except where they fear eX-
clusion from the reserves. The future
forest policy of the country should recog

in the hull, and at the same time opens
all the matches of the sunken ship and
makes fast within the hull the large
main pipes which connect with the huge
air drum on the tug.
That much being accomplished, the
next step toward the raising is to make
fast to the hull in the securest possible
manner the numerous cylindrical bags.
These are sent down to the diver who,
with chains. binds them along the keel
on either side. These bags are connected
by stout pipes with the air pump above,
and when all are made fast the powerful
machinery of the tug connecting with
the pump is set in motion.
AS the bags gradually fill with air un-
der the influence of the powerful pres
sure from above, they exert lifting
power on the hull which is not to be re-
sisted Gradually the huge frame is
completely turned over and eventually
I rests on the bottom of the sea. upside
| down, the air in the bags being of suffi-
cient buoyancy to keep it in position.
| Meantime the large main pipes which
| were first made fast inside the hull have
| not been idle, and as the powerful and
| steady current of air is forced through
| them into the hull, the water is grad
ually forced out, and light, buoyant air
| takes the place of the heavier water.
| AS the air pressure increases, the hull
| DeCOIIIeS lSHleF anu TlSeS tOWdTu the
surface. Air being constantly forced
| into the hull and the bags strapped
along the keel, the pressure is maintain
| ed and the water kept out on exactly the
| same principle that it is kept from fill
! ing the inverted cup held under water.
| In addition to turning the hull upside
down before it is enlptied of water, the
bags ranged along the keel also serve
| the purpose of keeping the craft in the
proper position while it is being raised
! through the water.
Strange as it may appear, the proper
position for the craft during the pro-
| cess is keel up. Were this position not
| maintained, the ship would naturally
right herself and again fill and sink,
| thus undoing all the work of the wreck
| ers.
| Once the ship is at the surface it is
| a comparatively easy matter to maintain
the air pressure while the hull is towed
| to the nearest dry dock.
AS long as the air pressure is main
| tanned within the hull, the ship cannot
sink, and once in the dry dock it is easy
| to right her and place her in position to
| make the necessary repairs.
| By the use of the Gaillard system, as
| it is called of wreck raising, almost all
| the disadvantages under which wreck
| ers have heretofore labored are obvia ted.
| All of the hard and laborious work is
| done by the air bags and the air within
| the hull There are no ponderous
cranes or derricks to be moved about
and the very sir1plicity of the whole
| arrangement is what recommends it
most forcibly to wreckers and divers.

about the size and condition of their stocks

Aside from information about their

pressed themselves definitely about the con-
dition of trade. Only 100 of them returned
gloomy answers. On the other hand AZ
said that business was fair, .sa5 that IL
was good and 456 that IL was very good.
That is, more than 2Sla per ceat of the con-

clared that business was very good.
The number of replies from one state or
