A box Of dynamite under the giant

The Forest Service has just CON-

The Forest Service has just CON-
pleted the work on the largest single
planting project ever undertaken in
the North west, approximately one
thousand acres having been covered
this spring on Mt Beto in Tillamook
county. This planting of trees is a
part OF the regular reforestation work
OF the Forest Service and is designed
to restore the forest on burned over
areas whore the original forests have
been destroyed by fire, and where mo-
thing Int brush now occupies the
land. In this way are barren places
on the National Forest made product
i've and future crop q. timber pro-
vided. While the NIL Hsto pSoieat
represents the largest ,area covered
ieforestation work this spring has been
done upon the Snoqualmie Forest. in
King and Snohomish counties, Wash
ington, and upon the Oregon, San
tiam, Casoads and Suislaw forests in
western Oregon and upon the Malheur
forest in eastern Oregon coverng In
all approximately 1850 acres. II ia
stated that the success Of the spring
planting work was somewhat handi-
capped by the exceedingly dry wea-
ther in March and April. and while
1t facilitated the actual labor of plant
ing, it was a detriment to the trees
and may retard their growth.
