SOUTHERN FOREST RESERVE.
Park of Two Thousand Acres to Be Els
fabIished nv Ccnureas

Park of Two Thousand Acres to Be Es-
tablished by Congress.
The efforts of the Senators and Repre-
sentatives from the States of Virginia.
North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama and Tennessee are at present
directed toward stirring up interest in a
proposition to save the splendid forests
of those States from complete annihila-
ton. The reckless destruction of forests
in many portions of the country. and the
resulting scarcity of timber, have awak-
ened the people of the southern Appa-
4achian States to the danger of having
their mountains denuded in the same
manner.
Consequently, it is now proposed to
save the trees of that section by the es-
adjustment of National Forest Re-
serve of not more than 100000 acres.
a bill is at present pending in each
branch of Congress, appropriating So
100000 for the establishment of such a
reserve. The Agricultural Department,
assisted by the United States geological
survey, has made thorough survey and
investigation of the forest condition in
the States above named. Secretary Will

park, and if the bill becomes a law he
will have charge of the expenditure Of
the $5000,000 Ii the project should go
through, the territory would be known as
Mckinley Park.
The proposition is not entirely new, a
favorable report having been made on a
similar bill in the last Congress. Reck-
less cutting and the forest fires which
follow are destroying the hard wood for
ests Of the South at a rate and TO an ex-
tent which is already having serious re-
suits over wide areas. In addition to it's
probable effect on climate. it is causing
irregularities in the flow of the streams,
which are destroying their value for wat
er power and navigation during the dry
season, and during the rainy season are
washing away the soils on the sleeper
hillsides and mountain slopes, filing up
the stream beds with sediment ana ,ie-
stroying the agricultural yGiue of the low
lands along the streams. Both the dinin-
ishing flow of water during the dry sea-
son and the deposit of sediment in the
stream beds AMI harbors during periods
of flood are becoming yearly more dan
gerous to navigation and arc leading di-
rectly to increased annual appropriations
for rivers and harborS.
