NO LAND WITHHELD
Representations About Ma
tional Forest Land Wide
of Facts

An impression that the national
forests contain large areas of agri-
cultural land to the exclusion of set
tlement, and large areas of untim-
bered grazing land unjustifiably
brought within the national forest
boundaries for the sake of grazing,
has gained wide currency" says
Secretary of Agriculture James Will
son, in his annual report just made
to the President.
To satisfy myself ON the ground
as to the facts, | made personal in.
vestigation of these matters during
the past summer in the States of
Idaho and Wyoming. Presumably
the time will come when some por-
tions of the present forests can,
with benefit to the community, be
converted into farms. Through dry
farming, plant breeding and the in
PRODUCTION of new forms of useful
and drought-enduring vegetation,
agriculture is steadily gaining upon
the desert, and may be expected to
gain on the forest in semi-arid re-
gions. Growth in population also
will bring an increasing demand for
farm land, But it will also bring an
increasing demand for timber and
water conservation. The present is
not the time to decide where the
line should finally be drawn.
Il found no evidence that the Ma
tional forests are Withholding from
settlement land now demanded for
agriculture. AS to grazing land. it
is sufficient to say that proper ad-
ministrative control of national for
est grazing has necessitated the fix
ing of the boundaries where they
now are, that public sentiment in
the States visited is strongly in favor
of the maintenance of the existing
boundaries, and that representations
that great areas of land are held for
other than forest purposes are. in
my judgment, wide of the facts"
When tracts of land suitable for
agriculture are found scattered in
the national forests, they are always
contrary to the belief of many
opened to sett ement under the Act
o. June II, 1906, and the Secretary
sa, vs. in his report that nearly 1,50C
hon 'esteads. with a total area Of
l4O., 1O0 acres, were listed during
the Ia Vt fiscal year.

TIMBER : SALE BUSINESS
In Southwest is Rapidly In.
ereasing and Indicates
Prosperity

Albuquerque, N. NJ, January
|2S-According to statement just
made by the District office of the
Forest Service, the returns from
timber sales in the southwest point
overwhelmingly to revival of busi-
mess. Acting District Forester
Woolsey said.
The contrast between conditions
during November, 1908, and Novem-
ber, 1909. is very marked. The
actual receipts during November,
1908, amounted to only $3,252.58,
whereas during November, 1909,
the receipts were $10,027.l6. In
other words, 1909 receipts are ap-
proximately three times those for
the same month in 1908.
During November, 1908, the
timber sales contracted for amount
ed to $1,S02.27, while during No
vember, 1909, they aggregated
$119, 1898. Although the cutting
of much of this timber will extend
over a period of years, the large
November sales are sure indica-
tion of prosperity.
The value of the timber actually
cut in November, 1908, according
to reports from supervisors, amount
ed to $4,634.92, whereas during
November, 1909, the actual cut was
to the value of S9,221.5S. 1t is
evident that there is some disparity
between the receipts for timber
sales and timber cut. This is ac-
counted for by the fact that timber
is paid for in advance of cutting,
but generally speaking. it is appar-
ent that the timber disposed of
during November, 1909. was two to
three times as much as during No
vember, 1908
| Forest officers say this is exceed
ingly gratifying in view of the inn
proved silvicultural methods employ
ed, and in view of the conservative
methods of cutting. The reports
show conclusively that the timber
sale business is improving, and yet
the silvicultural needs Of the for
ests are more carefully looked after
! than ever before. These increased
sales indicate that the disposal OF
timber is on a sound, practical basis
and there is still much mature
stumpage that presents an attrac'
tive investment for lumbermen.
