facilities, not only to Bismarck, but
the rapidly developing country up

TIMBER IN THE PHILIPPINES,
Forest Lands Comprise Over Twenty
Million Acres.

Forest Lands Comprise Over Twenty
Million Acres.
The division Of customs and insular af-
fairs Of the War Department has made
public a summary Of the first report Of the
Philippine bureau Of forestry, organized in
Its present form under an order of the mil
itary governor, dated April IA, 1900. The
director, Capt. Ahern, estimates the total
number Of tree species in the archipelago
at nearly 500. There are no pure forests
Of any one Species rarely more than three
or four trees Of one variety being found
grouped together, so that a lumberman
looking for shipload of one kind of tim
Der would find 1t practically impossible to
cut that and no other. and cargoes must
be assembled from different points.
Capt. Ahern states that from different
sources Of information he is led to believe
the public forest lands comprise from one
fourth to possibly one-half the area Of the
Philippine Islands. or from twenty to forty
million acres. There are fully five million
acres of <1rgin forest owned by the state
in the islands Of Mndoro and Paragua.
The Island of Mindanao, with area of
some twenty million acres. is almost en-
tirely covered with timber an devon in the
province of Cagayan, in Luzon, there are
rore than two million acres of forest. In
many other provinces of Luzon, especially
in the country close to Manila, much tim
Der has been cut, and to fill large con-
tracts the lumber men are obliged to go
quite distance from that city in order to
find suitable tract.
Capt. Ahern mentions tracts Of virgin
forests to be seen on the southern islands,
where from ten to twenty thousand cubic
feet of magnificent timber per acre was
standing. with trees more than $50 feet In
height, the trunks clear of branches for
sixty feet, and more than four feet in di-
ameter. He states that in these forests
there are millions Of cubic feet Of timber
which should be cut out in order to thin
this dense growth, that the maximum
annual growth could be obtained. There
Is a large variety of valuable gum, rubber
and gutta percha trees. seventeen dye
woods, and the ylang ylang, the oil from
the blossoms of which latter tree Is t!
base of so many perfumes. There are no
forest roads or driveways in the islands
considered worthy of mention.

GOOD ROADS MOST NEEDED.
Report of the Commissioner of the In.
terror of Porto Rico.

u
terror of Porto Rico.
The commissioner Of the interior for Por-
to Rico, William H. Elliott, in his annual
report to the Secretary Of the Interior, says
much expert manipulation, as we'll as de-
tective ingenuity, will be needed to I'M
tangle the mass Of cross-titles, duplication
and tapping of grants and concessions and
unauthorized occupation of public lands
that has grown with the centuries Of rule
in the interests of the favored few. The
archives Of the island were found in dis
ordered condition. Many records Of cases
never have been closed and are mixed with
those disposed OF. Encouragement and
classification are necessary prior to inveSti-
CATION. Prior to American occupation the
Spanish government ordered careful list
ing of the real property in each municipal
ity, but either because Of the expense or for
political reasons failed to execute the work.
This listing, according to the commissioner,
must be accomplished before the numerous
questions Of ownership can be definitely de-
termined.
The first great crying need of Porto Rico,
the report says, Is good roads At the time
of American occupation there was only one
really good road, that from San Juan to
Ponce, and most Of the island was and prac-
tically remains without other means of
reaching a market or communication be-
tween towns than over dilapidated and can
gerous trails, often impossible for days, lis
all streams there are torrential. The COM
missioner proposes to suggest to the legis-
lature that loan be f1oated Large enough
to build the most needed roads at once
The report of the president superior Of
the board Of health of Porto Rico says the
number Of true 1epers on the island prob
ably does not exceed one hundred, and It is
confidently believed that the disease can be
totally exterminated In few years by
cereful segregation of every case as it is
discovered.
