about One-third of the wage earners
in these industries are found IN TINS
section. They use five and half Dill
lion feet of lumber year, or about
a 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 l 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
Weld two or three times the present
growth, and this would, l believe, be
possible without checking the extern
sion of cultivation over lands suited
to that purpose. There are many
convincing reasons why these states
should produce as much as possible In
the way of forest growth from land
that is best adapted to that purpose
and in the aggregate these areas
amount to a great deal"

VALUE OF FORESTS

$50 important are forests in the
life of a nation that Germany will
find that France will insist upon Ger
many's paying in lumber for the casu-
allies of the French forests which
were destroyed during the war" de-
clares p. S. Ridsdale, secretary of the
American Forestry association, who
has made a tour Of the allied coun-
tries. Mr.. Ridsdale went to Europe
TO investigate forest losses in France
Belgium, Italy and Great Britain, so
that the American Forestry associa-
tion might determine how America
could help to replace the destroyed
forests of Europe by presenting for
est seed to the various governments.
"In northern France many of the
forests" he says, 'have been so badly
smashed by shell, shrapnel and rifle
fire or so badly cut for trench tim
hers. fuel wood and other supplies for
the contending armies that they have
been virtually destroyed. They can
he restored only by replanting.
s"The agricultural land lying be
+veen the forests in various sectors
of the battle front have been so tori
to nieces by shell fire that it is nc
longer serviceable for agriculture and
like the devastated forests, will have
to be planted with forest tree seet
so that in years to come the shell
holes may be filled by gradual ero
sion and the humus Of the soil re
stored.
Italy, Belgium and Great Britah
will make similar requests"

poets to formulate this forest policy.
1t is their business to do it and to
do it well.
Inc 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
it can be successful. You cannot COM
pei an owner to develop and perpetu-
ate his timberland at a financial loss |;
you must make it pay him, as other
countries do.
One most important feature of 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 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 a 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 a mutually satisfactory
national forest policy will have been
made. Other features of this policy
are certain to follow in due course.

GET TOGETHER

"The United States must decide up
on a national forest policy in order
TO perpetuate it's 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
tions 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 a timber supply for our fu-
ture needs and we can do so if for
esters get together with the lumber
men and timberland owners and agree
upon a practical, workable forest pol
lev. The country is grateful to Col.
Henry S. Graves, United States for
ester. for demanding national forest
policy at this time, and the foresters
