UNCLE SAM PLANTS
TREES FOR POSTER|TY

TACOMA, July 6.-U. y. S.)-
While this is garden time in the great
northwest Uncle Sam started last
week on little garden planting ven-
ture that covers an area of approx
mately 400 acres in the mountains
near Tacoma and which will be
ready for harvest about one hundred
years from now.
This spring gardening of the govern
ment is part of the reforestation pro-
gram of the forestry department and is
in charge of f. j. Fenby. deputy for
est supervisor of the Rainier national
forest reserve. Thirty thousand young
Douglas fir trees no higher than ones
shoes are being planted by Mr.. Fenby
and l2 forest rangers.
OF course the planting Is rather
rough and does not follow out we'll
lined rows as in gardening in the back
yard, bGt the rangers are placing the
young trees about eight feet apart.
/ Last year 500 acres were planted.
The area which is being replanted
covers about 100, 900 acres which were
burned over about twenty years ago
and which is now nothing but a vast
eXpanse of blackened stumps stretch
in away for miles in all directions.
This is one of the initial efforts of
the government towards reforestatiOn
and it is understood that this plan of
planning for the future of the lumber
industry of the country will be contin-
ued along a greater scale.
