Claims First Place Among Nations of Earth in It's
 Forest Products.
THE COMPARISONS IS
In This Country Forests Form Less Than 20 Per Cent of Land
 Area.
International News Special

Washington, Dec. 6.-Although the United States leads the world with bumper cropss msllionaires, trusts, records for athletics, miles of rail- roads and many other things, besides having the 'fbalance of trade" in her favor, it must nevertheless take off it's hat to Russia which claims first place among the nations of the earth in it's forest products. The estimated area of the Forests of the United States is 545,O00,000 acres. that of Russia is S12,640,O00 acres, Canada which ranks third has forest area of about 1,A9,000 square miles, of which 100000 square miles is covered with merchantable timber
 Raphael Zon, chief of silvcs of the Department of Agriculture. has com- piled a comparative statement of the forest resources of the world. MT. Zon says:
 Under present conditions there Is HCaTCely d. GlVlIiIeu CuuHlIy Wn~Cti economically is entirely independent of all other countries. The Life of all nations is now closely interwoven, and even countries like the United States Or Russia which contain within their borders practically all natural re- sources necessary to make them inde- pendent in every respect, are con- stantly interchanging their products with the rest of the world"
 It is impossible, he says, to form clear idea of the possibilities of country and it's future development without taking into account the mat ural resources, and the general eco homie condition of other countries with which it does business. Highly developed means of transportation make 1t often more. profitable to ob- tain certain products from coun-

try which for some reason is best fracture them at home, even though it is possible to do so
 country deprived of many natur- al resources may still be prosperous and progressive, Mir Zon says because it Is able to obtain all it needs from other countries having a surplus of products which it lacks. The British Isles are striking example of this. With comparatively Limited natural resources and high consumption of timber, grain and other raw material, England has highly developed indus tries which enable her to exchange her finished products for raw mater ials she needs. In a general way this holds good for forest products, but with this difference: Forests not on- ly produce timber but play an inn portant part in the life of every na- ton by exercising an influence on the water supply, on agriculture and the general health of the population. For this reason only a few countries with an insular climate, as England and Holland, may with impunity re- duce their forest areas beyond a certain safety limit. Ordinarily . country with a forest area of 20 per cent or less shows to a marked de- gree bad climatic conditions, with prolonged droughts, frosts and alter hating Hoods and low water.
 Portugal with a forest area of five per cent of her total land area, Span with 13 per cent. Greece with 13 per cent, Turkey with 20 per cent, Italy with IA per cent, are examples of this.
 In considering forest resources of the Limited States it is necessary to take into account forest resources of other countries, in order to determine the extent to which the United States can depend ,n case of exhaustion of it's own timber upon other nations or to determine the part which it plays and will play in supplying the de- mands of other countries for forest products.
 Forests of Europe.
 The forests of Europe occupy an area of 75o000,000 acres, which is about 31 per cent of the total area of Europe. The most wooded corn- try is Finland, followed by Bosnia, Herzegovina and Sweden The least wooded are Portugal and Great Brit ain. The proportion forests decreases from the north and east of Europe to- wards the south and west. Russia, Finland, Sweden, and Norway, to- gether possess 5S3,000,O0O acres. The forests of other countries except in few localities, are little explored. In Asia, the forests of Russia, British India and Japan lead. showing total

acreage of 3,050, 0,29S, ,000 Estimates for the entire world place the total acreage at 5000,00O acres.
 The forests of the United States ac- cording to ownersh D divided as fol- lows: National forests 1O0,O00,O 900 acres; state forests, 3,000,000 acres, private and unreserved public forests approximately 422,000,00O acresa
 While government and state owner ship of forests has invariably proved advantageous, yet the proportion of forest lands, owned or controlled by the state cannot always be taken as a criter on of the state of development of forestry in a country. The gov ernment may, for historic or economic reasons, have only a smal1 area of it's own, but still exercise great in- fmence over the forests of other own CTS. Thus Austria has only 4.6 per cent of the total forest area under state ownership, Switzerland, 4.6 per cent and Franee 1.2 per cent.
 In the United States forests form less than 29 Der cent of the entire land area. The area per inhabitant is about 6 acres.
 As the forests of the Unite States are cut for commerce, the stumpage area increases rapidly. The latest and best estimate of the stumpage of the United States places it at 2,500,000, ,000- 900 feet board measure. There is a cut of about 23,OOO,0OO,OOO cubic feet of standing timber year, an est,mat- ed growth of 12 cubic feet an acre annually.
 Consumption of Timber.
 According to department of agricul- ture home consumption of timber in the United States is larger than that of any other country in the world. The United States exports annually about 2600,O00,000 feet board measure and imports approximately 100000 feet.
 A review of the timber trade" says MT. Zon, shows a steady increase in wood consumption the world over. The increase in exports from Russia, Fin land, and Sweden $ needed in west ern Europe to make up growing de- ficit there and will not he a source of supply for the United States. Thus the tendency is toward a greater oy- ercutting of timber by the exporting countries, which, if continued, will lead to a universal shortage, with no surplus to draw from. This picture, gloomy as it may seem, is offset by the birth elf a new economic force movement toward the introduction of rat 'onal forest management
 If such management is long delay ed ill the United States, it is said, the country will face the problem of slo wconversion of scrubby woodland
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1910-12-27

to productive forest, thereby adding materially to the cost of living
 The solution of the problem" MT. Zon decares for a good wood sup ply, is to begin now to prepare for making a diminished forest area SUD- ply an increased population.

THE automobile show attracted
hundreds of people to Milford last
week and it proved a success as to
the purpose of holding it, and we
un derstand that the manage
ment did not come out any worse
than they had expected. Another
year an automobile show in Milford
will attract a large attendance for
several reasons principally be-
cause of the interest it creates in
better roads. The addresses on
this subject on Saturday, the last
day of the show in Milford, by DR..
Layton and Mr.. Johnson of the
Agricultural Department at Wash
ington, were instructive and set
many to thinking over this particu-
lar subject.
