my hope is that I will live to see
the barren lands of Michigan turned
over to the state commission of for
estry and that the state will provide
$50, 900 annually for the planting of
trees and taking care of some of this
land that is going to waste and pro-
ducing no revenue. but is continually
producing expense in the way of ad-
vertising, tax sales, etc. When we
realize that foreign countries are de-
irving a big revenue from growing
trees and municipalities owning a few
hundred acres or few thousands acres
of forest and the income of such forest
being sufficient so that not one single
cent of taxation Is required, we Won
der why 1t ds that Americans are not
smart enough to utilize our own natur-
al resources in this way"
Some Idea of the immense value of
timber lands is obtained from a few
statistics about Oregon. Oregon has at
present 300, 600, 600 feet of standing tim
ber At the present rate of consump-
ton Oregon's timber supply would last
$50 years. At $12 per thousand feet the
states timber is now worth $500. 600, 900
or more than the total amount of mon
ey in circulation in the United States.
Oregon has enough timber to build
solid board fence so feet high around
the entire United States.
