Philadelphia in 1900, and to this
day this old pipe, when dug up, is
found to be in a remarkable state of
preservation. Later cast iron and
steel began to take the place of
wood, especially in communities near
the centers of the iron and steel
industries. Within the past five or
ten years, however, the wood pipe
industry has received a new impetus,
and you will now find wooden pipes
in all parts Of the country, notably
In the West. In fact, it has invaded
ever the iron and steel centers, n
striking instance being that OF one
Of the largest iron and steel com
panies itself. Some Of the advan-
tages already claimed for wood pipe
are that it is preserved by water
rather than rusted or corroded, it is
not affected by frost, it requires
less labor and experience to lay it,
and 1t Is cheaper.
AAO WOON ctaVS p1pC lCSCully idlu
at White Salmon, Washington, holds
the record for size, being a mile in
length and thirteen and a half feet
in diameter! While there are not as
yet many wooden pipes in Oregon
and Washington, this study is of
especial interest to this section be-
cause of the fact that most of the
wood Of which these pipes are made
Is supplied by these two states.
Several woods are used, but Doug
las fir is n Of the best for the
purpose. Pipe factories in Portland,
Tacoma and Seattle are shipping
this product to all parts of the Unit
ed States and Canada.

Forest Protection Progresses

4,135,000 feet were lost in Clallam
County and considerably more fire
killed which will probably be logged.
It is thought that not to exceed
100000 board feet of green tim
Der was destroyed on private hold
ings in Oregon. Damaging fires oc-
Cured tn only a few localities and
even in such places they were large
ly confined to old burns or slash
ings. Expenses for fire fighting were
of necessity high in many localities,
and patrol costs were also increased
as a result Of the long dry spell.
The year may be well compared to
1910 for although the 1914 drought
extended over a period Of IA days
as against 81 in 1910, the former
year more dry winds were expert
enced. The loss of only about thirty
million board feet Of green timber
in 1914 as compared with a billion
board feet in 1910 measures the
step taken In Oregon along lines of
forest protection.

Use of Wood Slave Pine
THE District Forester at Portland,

THE District Forester at Portland,
Oregon, announces that his Of
flee has recently undertaken a
study of the wood stave pipe in Ore
gon and Washington.
A study OF the wooden pipe, ma
tional in its scope, was begun some
time ago by the Forest Service at
its Madison, Wisconsin, laboratory.
The local study is a part of the pro-
gram as outlined by the labor
atory. Its purposes is to gather in
formation upon the s~erviceability
Of wood staye pipe for conduits, as
compared with iron, steel. concrete.
and other materials. A circular let
ter Is being sent to all wood pipe
users in Oregon and Washington,
asking in regard to the kind of wood
used, size of pipe, details Of con
struction, length above ground and
buried, character Of soil, water pres
sure. advantages and disadvantages,
and causes of failure. 1t is expect
ed that this study will bring out the
full limit Of efficiency of the wood
stave pipe, or in case Of failure, re-
veal methods whereby such failure
may be avoided.
The use of wooden pipe to con-
duct water dates back to a very
early period. There is a tradition
that the Romans used 1t in their
water works. In more modern times,
1t is known that the first water COM
pany in London, organized in 1913,
supplied water to a part Of the city
through wooden pipes. In this coun-
try, wood pipe was installed in

Fir is Leading in
National Forests

The District Forester at Portland,
Oregon, has recently completed an
estimate, by species, Of the timber
on the tw~enty-eight National For
ests In Alaska, Oregon and Wash
ington.
OF the total stand of 292,594 mil
Hon board feet, Douglas fir ranks
first with 95,756 million feet, and
Is found on all but three of the Ma
donal Forests-the two in Alaska
and the Fremont In south-central
Oregon. On account of the abund-
ance Of western hemlock timber on
the two National Forests in Alaska,
this sepcies ranks second with 1851
million feet. Yellow pine holds third
place with 30,363 million feet, and
Is found chiefly east Of the summit
Of the Cascade Mountains in Ore
gon and Washington. These three
species constitute 6S per cent Of the
total stand under the jurisdiction OF
the Forest Service In these three
states.
This estimate, which Is only ap-
proximate and will be improved
upon as opportunity offers, segre-
gates the remaining amount of 80
per cent into twenty other species,
some Of which, like redwood, are
found on only n or 4 very few Of
the National Forests In this region.

Because Of extreme drouth, the
fire risks on the national forests in
the Northwest have been greater this
season than In any other since 1910,
the worst year since the forests we're

this year because experience In fire
