the Atlantic and Great Plains have
been cut, for such cutting was neces-
sary and inevitable. 1t is rather be-
cause much Of our good mother earth
is out of work. There are some 326
million acres of loggedoff land which
have not been converted into farms.
EighV-one million acres of it are
wholly idle as far as the production
of any other useful crop is concerned.
Many other million acres are grow
ing but a small portion of the wood
they might produce. A large part of
every old forest region is idle today.
There are twenty million unemploy-
ed forest acres in the Lake States
and another twenty million in the
South. Idle logged-off land lies
within a stones throw Of great lum-
Der consuming centers in New York
and Pennsylvania. There are over
five million acres Of it in little New
England.
As the sawmills move across the
Great Plains into virgin fields, the
average homebuilder or manufactur-
er pays the piper. With every fresh
move, the freight bill on lumber pro-
ducts goes up. Consider what this
means to a great market like Chica-
go or New York. Nearly two and a
half billion feet of lumber pass thru
Chicago yearly. 1t is the greatest

standing the taste Of prosperity that
the farmers had during the war, there
Is today lower standard of living

In conclusion, II seems to me that the
farmers are chiefly striving for a gen.
orally beneficial lntegration Of their

should be found on examination that
the attainment Of this end requires

sawmills just completed by the For
est Service. The cut of lumber in
practically every western state has
increased. In nearly every eastern
state is has declined. Washington
heads the list of lumber producing
states and manufactures a sixth of
the entire lumber of the country.
Louisiana long held second place, but
now it yields to Oregon. California
becomes the fifth in rank, replacing
another of her southern sisters. The
American sawmill has steadily eaten
its way westward and now is cropping
the last rich virgin pastures. Over
60 per cent of the timber left in the
United States lies beween the Rocky
Mounains and the Pacific Ocean.
From that region the country must
draw a steadily increasing part of the
thirty-five odd billion feet of lumber
which it needs every year for its
dwellings and industries.
Last summer rode over a 60-mile
stub railroad in the mountains OF
West Virginia on which thiry-five
Sawmills, large and small, have been
dismantled and abandoned within the
last fifteen years. Its stations are
mostly sawdust piles, each with its
cluster of vacant, rotting buildings.
Another stub few miles distant
once marketed the product of twelve
large sawmills. Now one of them is
left and its humming saws will be-
come silent in four or five wears. The

lumber market in the world. Thirty
years ago is was supplied by the
abundant forests of the Central and
Lake States and the freight charge
on the average thousand feet of lum-
Der coming into the city was well
under $500. Today, with the bulk
of the lumber shipments coming
from the far south or the far west,
the average freight bill is not less
than Sl5 per thousand feet. The
lumber users and distributors Of
Chicago are paying from twenty to
twenty-five million dollars a year in
added traffic charges because the
sawmills in nearby states have cut
and moved on. And for every dollar
of this excess freight, there is an
acre Of idle forest land within three
hundred miles of Chicago's lumber
yards.
WARNING GIVEN.
Because of unemployed forest
land, we are draining our timber re-
sources SIX times as fast as they are
being replaced. Because of this, we
today feel the slowly tightening grip
Iof a national timber shortage. The
idlenesS of forest land is making it
more difficult and costly to house our
people, to supply our newspapers
and magazines with paper, to main
tain our manufacturing industries
that depend upon wood. 1t were
well to heed the writing on the wall.
We should view the unemployment
of acres exactly as we view the un-
employment of human labor.
The answer is not far to seek. For
estry is no longer fanciful theory.
1t has become the concern of the ev.
eryday business man. We are pre-
eminent as nation Of timber users.
We must become a nation of timber
growers. Once the business man
grasps that fact and puts his support
behind the nationwide reforestation,
the problem of timber supply will be
in a fair way toward solution. There
is forest land a-plenty in the United
States to build her houses, supply
her factories, and print her newspa-
.pers, ii it is kept at work growing
trees.
