Alexander Halonen, a Finnish
miner employed at Quincy, met a
sudden death while a, work in level 40
OF No s shaft Wednesday morning at
about 8 clock in manner which
has not yet been positively deter
mined, as the circumstances are
rather unusal and could not be
definitely determined before the
inquest is held, The theory advanced
is that while earring the drills he
encountered live wire which was
strung directly above the spot where
he. fell and was electrocuted.

upon prices, particularly where there
is still q great deal of available
timber, is to raise the price Of the
outside stumpage toward its actual
value of withdrawing the excess Of
suppy y of low price timber from the
market. But later, as the supply OF
timber dwindles and values are
forced upwards by speculative
holdings, the effect of the forest will
be TO check the advance Of prices. In
the virgin forests growth is just
about balanced by decay. 10 the
western fore SITS, however, natural
deterioration is greatly augmented
by forest fires. The fires usually do
more harm Dy damaging merchan-
table timber, but, great as this injury
is, vastly more actual loss in forest
wealth results from the yearly
burning over of the grass and under
growth of the forest Ground fires
do not consume the large trees, but
they destroy the seedlings outright
and injure growing trees so that
they quickly decay. Finally the forest
floor, composed Of a mold of needles /,
twigs and mosses, is burned away.
Far beyond the present influence
of the national forests upon the
lumber will be their Importance in
the future. The United States is
now facing short age in the stock
of available timber. The yield from
the national forests will aid greatly
to bridge over the period in which
mature timber will be lacking. "a
period which will last from the time
the old trees are gone until the
young trees are large enough to
take their places. The definite result
OF the sale OF timber from the fores
will be to osustain the lumber business,
to maintain q steady range Of timber
values and so discourage speculation,
and far more important still, steadily

NATIONAL RESERVE.
Forest Reserve to be Used by Uncle
Sam as a Weapon Against Monopoly.

A point in the industrial progress
OF the United States has now been
reached where development of the
country is made, not in the face OF
the forest but with its essential aid.
The old process of exhausting the
supply of tim Ger in region and
then seeking new fields is practically y
over. Already the lumber industry
is turning back on It's tracks. A
quality of timber is eagerly sough in
the lake states which q few years
ago was ignored as utterly useless,
and in the south the whole pine
region is being gone over in u close
search for the old field pine, tree
once despised but now bought up at
prices much higher then thso.
formerly paid for the magnificent
timber of the virgin forest.
A publication just issued by the
department OF agriculture entitled
National Forests and the Lumber
Supply defines the important part
which the national forests are
destined TO play in the economic
development Of this country. Abuses
have grown up under the laws which
provide for the disposition of public
lands, notably the segregation of
large holdings OF timberland for
speculative purposes. Timuer from
the national forests is now purchased
by the thousand board feet, aud
payment is made upon the actual
scale of logs when cut. Two dollars
and half per thousand feet is
comparatively low as present
charges 70. but since the cut ranges
from 5000 to 20, 900 feet per acre, the
government receives from five to
twenty times that much for the
timber as it did under the timber
and stone act.
Public opinion now demands, not
that the government should dispose
of its remaining timber lands as
rapidly as possible aad leave it to
private enterprises to exploit the
forest hastily, but that what re.
mains OF the national forests should
ne more conservatively used. The
government has been forced into the |
lumber business solely 10 order tha;
a supply Of forest product may be
guaranteed to future generations.
Probably sixty-fve per cent Of the |
total stand Of merchan table timber
within the forests is located on thc
Pacific coast where forslong time the
enormous supply OF privately ownec
timber will satisfy most OF The
demand. This more accessible privat,
timber surrounded the forests a.
the meat Of an apple surrounds tn,
core. II has been entirely eaten ava,
in many places, while in others IL Il
looked up by spectators. The thin,
70 remember, then, Is that this
inmense body of public timber J.
there as a great reserve against th,
time when private timber lands vii
be depleted, and for use as weapon
against monopoly.
