FoREsTRn IN JAPAN.
Have Been Practicing Forest Plant
ing for 1900 Years.

mig tOf As&OV AeAfs.
Just at the time when this coun-
try is beginning to struggle with the
problem Of outstanding its forest re-
sources. of protecting its mountain
slopes, and Of improving the water
ways, Il is interesting to know that
the Japanese have successfully at
tackled the same problem. before the
land suffered severely from the evil
effects following deforestation. The
farsighted people Of Nippon have
foreseen the results OF the destruc-
ton of their extensive mountain for
ests, and have safeguarded them
selves by placing all OF these under
government control.
The practice of forestry has been
carried on in Japan for q longer
time than in any other country. For
1900 years the people OF Japan have
been planting and growing forests.
with success that has been little
short Of marvellous Under careful
management, the Japanese forests
yield very high financial returns. This
high yield is only made possible by
the close utilization Of every bit OF
the tree so that scarcely a twig is
wasted, and by the improvement OF
the growth Of their forests by care
fully conducted thinning and tend
ing. The woods are first thinned at
the age of thirteen years, and then
every five years after that up to the
time Of the final harvest. at 40
years.
1t was with the opening up OF the
hitherto inaccessible mountain for
ests that the Japanese government
became most intensely interested in
forestry. The mountains were sim
government land, SO all that was
necessary to protect them was to
place proper restrictions on the sale
and cutting of timebr. This was ef-
fected by declaring the forests on
the steep slopes as reserved forests,
in which the only cutting should be
done under government direction.
The forests on agricultural lands.
not needed for protection. are classed
as available forests. and here the cut
ting is not so carefully restricted.
Thus Japan has efEectually prevent
ed the stripping Of her mountain
slopes before any great damage has
been done. In some districts. where
the mountains are near towns, the
steep slopes have already been clear
ed, and this has resulted in floods
and the washing down OF the soil
from the slopes on to the farm lands.
But these cases have been exception
al and have merely served as a warn

DEBRIS CASE
S. Court of Appeals Decides in
Favor Of Mine Owners.

SAN FRANCISCO Nov. Tin the
United States circuit court Of appeals
an opinion was handed down By Cir
cult Judges Gilbert and Ross and
District Judge Hunt in the appeal OF
the agricultural interests Of the
Occur d'Alene river against the Bun
ker Hill and Sullivan Mining and
Concentrating company ct al, repre-
senting the Mineowners' association.
The decision of the circuit court OF
Idaho was adverse to the agricul-
turists and this was affirmed by the
appellate court with the modification
that the complaint of Timothy Nc
earthly, William Ramey and Elmer
Doty, the appellants, should have
been dismissed without prejudice.
COntending Claims.
The suit involves large interests.
On one side are arrayed the ranch
men, representing $500, 600 in prop
erty, and the Occur d'Alene mines,
representing $4,000, 900 of invested
capital are on the other. 1t was
claimed that the mills of the mining
companies so polluted the waters OF
the river that they poisoned the live
stock, rendered the crops unstable
and SO filled the river With silt that
it was no longer navigatable. An in
junction was asked for.
In reply the mine owners contend
ed that no damage had been done
since they had built expensive re-
tanning dams; that the waters were
navigable. and that the output of the
mines of the disputed
duced over $2,5OO,00O in excess OF
the value of the entire agricultural
products of the state and valley,
They claim that if the injunction was
granted $12.OOO,OOO of the capital
would be tied up, $25. 900. 900 loss
would be entailed on the owners, the
inhabitants of that region would
suffer loss of $4,000. GOO and that
the development of the resources OF
the state would be paraIyzed and
the mining industry ruined.
Question Still Open.
The dismissal of this suit with
out prejudice practically leaves the
question involved unsettled" said
Attorney w. T. Stowell last evening,
"as it gives these three men. who are
all the compliments in the case, a
right again to bring suit. His opin-
ion was confirmed by Edwin MeBee,
one of the attorneys in the case.
