Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1911-03-30

The total amount of standing timber
in the United States is $500, 900, 900, coo
board feet. The present annual drain
upon the supply of saw timber is fifty
billion feet
One-half of the privately owned tim
Der in California; Oregon, Washington,
Idaho and Montana is now owned by
thlrty-sevcn holders. This timber is
being largely held for the future, when
these owners will be the dominating
influence in the industry.
We are beginning to realize more
fully the value of our forest resources.
Public sentiment has been created
against the spoliation or the destruc-
ton of the vast timber tracts by fire.
Detailed field examinations made by
National Forest officers show that dur
ing the forest fires of last summer in
Oregon and Washington, there was a
loss to the National Forest timber of
over seven hundred million feet. This
is equal to the amount cut by all of the
Portland saw mills last year, which
produced revenue of thirty million
dollars. In the Ctlville reserve alone
100, 900 acres We're burned last year.
The fire, however, in the Colville re-
serve was mostly surface fire and
consequently was less destructive than

Hunting Seal and Polar Bear.

The usual sights on entering are; on
the way opposite you steamer-lilxe
berth covered with skins-th sleeping
quarters of the family; underneath, or
IN front, sit one or two women, busily
sewing; to the right, man making
hunting gear. Never will you find an
Eskimo family idle. An occupants are
naked to the waist, sometimes only
covered with a loin cloth. Along the
wall on either side burn several lamps.
These lamps are shallow soapstone
basins filled with the oil of the seal
whale or walrus; along the edge is
placed little ridge of moss which an
swers the purpose of the wick in our
lamps. The lamps do not smoke and
besides Illuminating, throw a great
heat. Above the flame hangs a piece
cf blubber to replenish the oil; also a
teakettle.

The Place of the Militia.

The United States has so small a
standing" army that it has small
standing with more warlike nations of
the world. The military forces here
are often made the object of ridicule
by foreign military authorities. The
great military reserve power in this
country lies in the state militia.
Under the present law, all men, be-
tween the ages of IS and 43, are sub
ject to military duty, and are prac-
tically part of the militia, and amen
able to service. The organized militia
consists of about 80, 900 men,. These,
with the regular army of $4,000, form
a force of about 100, 900.
Idaho has ten companies Of the
national guard that may soon be put
on war footing of 100 men each,
making 1000 members. Under an
emergency call, probably from 25, 600
to 1000 men in the state would be
subject to service. The government
has large authority, under the present
law, to call out state troops, so that
it is possible to raise large force in a
comparatively short time,
1t is claimed that an army of 1,000,-
900 men could be modified within a
month and 100000 within three
months. These would be largely raw
recruits and would require considerable
drilling. The value of the state militia's
organized work is little appreciated,
but in case of war it would be better
understood The state can afford to be
liberal with it's militia, as preparedness
for an emergency would be far prefer
able to the prevalent conditions in state
militia affairs. Teller.

L.iuhtnino Rods.

There were no lightning rods in an
Gent times. The first one that the
world ever saw was set up by our
own illustrious countryman Benjamin
Franklin shortly after the year 1852.
He had just had his celebrated expert
ment with the kite. in which he DEM
with electricity, and was therefore
prepared for the construction of the
rods for which the world had waited
so long. 1t Is not generally known
that Franklin was as distinguished In
science as he was in craftsmanship

National Forest Ro6ge Regulations

The Secretary of Agriculture has ap-
proved a revised form of the grazing
regulations which govern use of the
National Forest ranges. In the opinion
of the department officers, the most
important departures from the cid
regulations are found, first, in the fact
that provision is made for recognition
of perment national advisory board
board representing the sheep and cattle
interests, which will confer annually
with the secretary of agriculture con-
corning grazing matters; and secondly,
in the laying down of rule that en-
forests where the quality of range and
advantages for raising cattle and sheep
are equal, the year-long rate for sheep
after the season of 1911 will be thirty
per cent of the yeal-long rate for
cattle.
The new regulations have been mac e
the subject of extended and most care
fal consideration and are promulgated
at the present time as the result Of a
general revision made of all the regu-
latlons governing the use of the
national forests. Before deciding on
the grazing regulations, Secretary
Wilson invited representatives of the
two great national organizations of
sttekmen, the National Wool Growers
association and the American National
Live Stock association, to present their
views to him on grazing mstters, and
to make any suggestions which they

It Is the expressed belief of Secre-
tary Wilson that the new regulators
mark a step forward in the administra-
ton of the national forests by the gov
eminent, with the hearty cooperation
of the stockmen, under effective
methods which have in view both the
largest possible measure of service to
the public from the forests and the full
est promotion of the welfare of the

this service.
