weighing from IL to 16 pounds are
more likely to cure with high quality

pieces. Neither hams nor bacon
should carry excessive quantities OF

Nation Wakes to
Forestry Needs
Review Of Year Shows
Activity in Meeting
Problem.

washington. Jan, 20.-The year
1000 was the great year for forestry
i the United States, if not in fact
the greatest year yet known by this
country.
The final telling blow Of the year
WAS the message of President HARD
inc to Congress on December y wnen
he said:
eve must encourage the greatest
POSSIBLE cooperation between the
federal government, the various
states and the owners Of forest iands'
to the end that protection from
fire shall be made more effective
and replanting encouraged
Forestry sentiment is growing ma
+ionallv. as evidenced by the fact
that 1922 opened with the devotlng
of an entire week to study OF TINS
nroblem by the agricultural COM
mittee of the House Of Representa-
tiyes. on the Smell bill, sponsored by
the national forestry committee which
included the American Newspaper
Publishers Association, the Ameri-
can Paper and Pulp Association, the
National Lumber Manufacturers AS
sociation. the Association Of Wood
Using industries, and several more
local organizations Of wide lnfiu-
ence.
The Chamber of Commerce OF the
United States named forestry
committee, which travelled 10000
miles. visiting all Of the country's
lumber producing regions, as to the
effort of the organized business
interest of the country to learn the
facts, upon which a future national
forestry policy could be predicated.
New advance steps were taken by
the paper industry Of the United
States toward providing future
permanent supply of raw materials,
by the development Of the national
campaign for better forestry know
ledge by the paper mills. The wood
land section of the American Paper
and Pulp Association, tentatively
formed in the fall of 1920 as an
organization of the foresters OF the
wood superintendent in the paper
industry, became permanent organ
ization, and recognized 1actor
in the activities of the paper makers
of the country.
The Bogalusa Paper Company Of
Bogalusa, La, subsidiary OF the
Great Southern Lumber Company,
announced as 1922 neared its close
that it was such believer in fores-
try that it had turned over to the
State authorities for technical forest
nv management $1,000 acres, upon
which timber will be grown under
state law, to provide a permanent
raw material supply for its paper
mill. This is the biggest forestry
step taken by any of the Southern
states members of the American
Paper and Pulp Association.

apement than would have been the
case under ordinary 'ligging methods.
The Spanish River Company, Cana
dian property, has placed eight or
ten townships, or over 300 square
miles, of pulp wood forest, under the
control of it's forestry department.
The Mead Pulp and Paper Com
pany of Dayton, O., controlled larg-
" by the same interests which are
back Of the Spanish River Company
has conducted extensive experiments
in the artificial reforestation OF the
Ohio valley region with poplar and
other hard woods, readily adaptable
for plup making.
The Chateaugay Pulp and Paper
Company, Of Chateaugay, N. T., or
dering 10000 Norway spruce trees,
gave the state of New York's con-
servation department the largest SIN
gle order for trees for artificial re-
forestation placed during 1922.
There are in the paper industry,
eighty men whose forestry work and
training in such as to entitle them
to membership in the woodland
section Of the American Paper and
Pulp Association. Many more, un-
doubtedly, are in this work, but not
organization members.
At least three main paper COM
panies are practising actual refor-
estation, using chiefly spruce for,
pulp wood, but some pine. They
are the Orono Pulp and Papar Com
pany, Orono, Me-; the Eastern Manu-
featuring Company Of Bangor, Me-;
and the Pejebscot Paper Company
Of Brunswick, Me.
In New York, three important pa
per companies at least are practis-
ing technical forestry, and artificial
planting cut-over lands. These in
clude the Chateaugay Pulp and Pa
per Company, Chateaugay, N. T.,
Finch, Pruyn & Co., Glen Falls, N.
Y. and the St. Regis, N. Y. In ad-
dition, the forest lands of the Rae
quote River Paper Co., Of Potsdam,
N. Y, looked ahead SO many years
ago that George w. SESSION, Jr.,
president of the company, formerly
president of the American Paper
and Pulp Association, sent his son
to Cornell university to take tech
nical course. This SON now is head
of the forestry department OF the
fathers company.
Reforestation is most notably
development Of the Eastern States,
where the timber was logged off
before the lake state forests were
touched, and the need has conse-
quently been felt in the east much
earlier than in the west.
