FOREST FIRES.
They Are Sometimes a Gain to Those
Who Own the Timber.

Who Own the Timber.
People who have read accounts of
great forest fires may be surprised to
learn that. in place of loss. such fires
are sometimes Il gain 10 the owner.
The loss in lumber if cut within a few
years is small, and the removal of un-
derbruSh reduces the cost of lumber
ing.
That Il forest fire could in any way
be benefit and not an injury seems
so novel that some proof is necessary.
The statement has been made that
more timber is destroyed by fire every
year than is converted into lumber.
As Il matter of fact, the report of the
forest service declares the actual fire
loss in national reserves for the last
three wears has amounted to only one
tenth Of | per cent. From some fifty
lumber companies the highest admit
ted loss from fire is per cent in twen-
ty years Another company estimates
its fire loss for fifty two years at per
cent. and another, during sixty. has
had an annual loss Of One-siXteenth of
per cent Twenty eight companies re-
port their loss since organization as
hardly worth mentioning"
The pOiut of these reports. so sur
priSing to those unacquainted with the
lumber business is that the fires, while
| they kill the trees. do not consume the
| trunk The less severe fires do not
necessarily kill the trees. Worse fires
do this by burning the underbrush
around the trees and perhaps the tops
of the trees But the trunk Of the tree,
the log from which the boards are to
| be cut. is seldom touched. The killed
! timber makes as good lumber as the
other. the only difference being that it
| is necessary to cut it within a limited
| time
White pine or hemlock in the upper
| Mississippi valley must be cut the first
| or the second winter following the fire
or worms will injure the lumber. The
| two year period applies in the inland
| empire" and to the hemlock on the
| slopes Of the Cascades. Western
! spruce need not be cut for three years
and western fir for four years Red
! cedar has no limit and trees burned
fifty years ago are now being turned
| into Shingles.-Jonas Howard in Chi
| cago Tribune.
