Should Protect Forest Lands.

Wisconsin citizens live in a natur-
ally wooded and timbered country.
Trees are a part of our everyday life,
says a communication from the state
conservation board. We have used
what nature gave us in timbered lands
with a prodigal hand We have
failed and are failing to restore and
protect a reasonable amount of forest
growth in the state. Virgin or mature
timber lands are meant TO be cut and
their products used by all. Being a
readily replaceable resource, we
should never lack for suitable supplies
Of timber and timber products if we
give, on suitable lands, the young
trees Chance to grow to maturity.
We can have maximum of farm and
forest development on the lands of
the state and should plan for this de-
velopment if we have our best inter-
ests at heart. Our prosperity rests on
our natural resources, of which the
forest has been and will continue to
be one of our basic sources for raw
materials. Forest-produeing lands
should be protected. The public well
fare demands plentiful supply of
forest products indefinitely. The for
est fire strikes directly at our welfare
and prosperity in this respect, and is
at the base of our forestry problem.
Give the young forest sufficient pro-
lection from fires and in few years
we will have hundreds of thousands
of acres of young green forests On
lands now practically nonproduetiye.
Fires started for the clearing of lands
for agricultural purposes. for the
burning of railroad rights Of way for
highway construction, and for many
other purposes, are c0mmendable in
themselves, but these fires should be
controlled and not allowed TO run over
adjoining lands. The wild or uacop-
trolled fire is the one that does the
damage and is the type of fire from
which the forests Of Wisconsin. Young
and old of all species, need protection.
