GET TOGETHER

"The United States must decide up-
on national forest policy in order
to perpetuate its timber supply" says
Charles Lathrop Pack, president of
the American Forestry association.
We are far behind France. Great Brit
ain, Germany, Japan and other ma
lions in this respect.
The United States has only about
one-fourth of its original forest and
this is now disappearing three times
faster than it is being reproduced.
We must. before it is all gone, pro-
vide for timber supply for our fu-
ture needs and We can do so if for
esters get together with the lumber
men and cumberland owners and agree
upon practical, workable forest pol
icy. The country is grateful to Col.
Henry S. Graves, United States for
ester, for demanding national forest
policy ut this time. and the foresters
are the men whom the country ex-

"The agricultural land lying be-

tools, planing-mill products and the
like. About one-third of the total
capital invested in the woodmanufac-
turing industries of the country and
about One-third Of the wage earners
in these industries are found in this
section. They use five and half bill
lion feet of lumber year, or about
quarter of the aggregate used In
this country for such enterprises.
To-day the home product does not
nearly meet the annual requirements,
but, further than that, the cutting
that is done far exceeds what Is
grown each year. 1t Is probable, from
the best estimates that have been
able to secure, that the annual growth
Of material of potential value in the
three states is not over one-Quarter of
what is cut each year. This means
that the forests are progressively los
ing ground with considerable rapidity.
"This deficit is due only in part to
the clearing of land for agriculture.
1t Is due also to the failure to handle
the lands in a way to secure good re.
production and properly to protect the
young trees that become established
With better care and management the
forest lands of these states should
yield two or three times the presen,

the per capita production of nearly all
the important crops, but also, accord
ing to recent report, in the number
of cattle and swine per capita. More
over, estimates for milk, eggs, and
poultry indicate an increase in per
capita production during the war. In
view of these facts, it probably would
be unwise to stimulate large increase
in the per capita farm acreage at the
present time, especially where such an
increase would have to be effected by
utilizing land which is inferior or
which would be made available at

Land Settlement Problems.
"At present various private agencies
are engaged in promoting land settle
ment. Many of them are honest in In
tention, promise and practice; others
keep within the letter of the law but.
through exaggeration and indirection
of statement, create false impressions
in the mind of the settler. Many VIC
late no canon of fair business practice.
but their interest is in profits, and
they do not pursue policy calculated
to develop profitable and wholesome
community life. Only few have made
careful studies of the conditions OF
successful settlement and developed
their business with a view to the set.
tiers progress and success. Practi-
cally all are seeking to realize the
highest possible price for their unde-
veloped holdings. and the settler is
compelled to face the problem Of ad.
justment to pioneer conditions while
carrying a burden of land value which
often represents, in part, the capital.
ization of q future increase in earning
power.
1.-THE intending settler of small
means Is rarely able to distinguish be-
tween the good and bad methods of
selling land in new regions. The more
i INSCRIPTIONS the land company the
more lurid it's advertisement and the
more extravagant its promises. Set
tiers often are induced to invest all
their savings in land not suitable for
successful farming, to purchase more
land in relation to the capital available
for Development than they should. OF
to undertake projects the cost of clear.
ing or reclamation of which will prove
to be prohibitive. The results in many
instances have been tragic failures af'
ter years of incredible hardships. waste

jury to the business of legitimate and
well-meaning land concerns.
1T would be desirable If govern
mental agencies, by systematic aid
should furnish reliable Information tf
those seeking farms, should take par
ticular pains. through their agricul
tural machinery, to give Jew settler'
very special assistance and guidance
and, where conditions are favorable
should aid in the development Of well
considered settlement plans"

poets to formulate this forest policy.
II IL their business to do IT and to
do 1t we'll.
The national and state governments
hold only some 3 per cent of merchant
able timber. Therefore, the majority
OF the owners of the timber must be
IN accord with any policy debating
the management, the protection. and
the refOrestatiOn of their land before
1t can be successful. You cannot COM
pei an owner to develop and perpetu-
ate his tfmberland at a financial loss;
If you wish him to reforest his land.
you m"st make it pay him, as other
countries do.
One most important feature of a ma
tional forest policy on which agree
ment Is possible is fire protection.
Forest fires have this year caused
millions Of dollars of damage in the
northwest. The United States forest
service spent more than a million dol
lars fighting these fires in July alone.
Private agencies spent lavishly in pro-
tecting their lands but the fire protec-
ton measures in neither national.
state or private forests are sufficient
to properly protect them. Get to-
gether then on national, state
and private forest fire protection
program. 1t Is the need of the hour
and when this has been done the first
step toward mutually satisfactory
national forest policy will have been
made. Other features of this policy
are certain to follow in due course.
