Solving Many Forest Problems

wake of numbering are decidedly bene-
ficial as they cause the material to
decay much more rapidly than it would
otherwise and thereby reduce the dam
ger from fire.
Of the many preventable injuries
which may occur in a forest, next to
fire, grazing, if improperly conducted
is the most destructive. When the
stock are too numerous young pines
and other tree seedlings are consumed
or so greatly damaged as to be worth
less for future growth. Reduction of
the vegetative cover by overgrazing
also results in destructive erosion be-
cause a cover on the ground is needed
to stay the flow of heavy rains or
melting SHOWS. The precipitation, in
stead of being absorbed by the soil,
collects IN drainage channels and runs
off in torrents carrying with it much
valuable surface soil and tearing great
gullies in the country. The function
of the forest for watershed protection
is thereby greatly lessened.
It is the job of Investigators, con-
tinues Mr.. Pearson, to solve such
problems so that the forest may be
properly used and still continue to
function as nature intended they
should-hy furnishing perpetual
supply of lumber and fuel, and con-
serving the rain and snowfall for
beneficial human use.

flood control must be disregarded, so
that as a flood control enterprise it
will be less satisfactory and vastly
more expensive because Of the drag
ging in Of this feature.
It is easy to see why the senators
and representatives from California
are so keenly in favor of the Boulder
Canyon project as now proposed. They
want cheap power in southern Cali
fornia, and they know that If this
great power development is made the
power must be sold cheap in order to
be sold at ALL Where the supply of
goods offered in any market exceeds
the demand this is always the result.
But it is hard to believe that the SEN
ators and representative from other
parts Of the country will develop equal
enthusiasm From the point of view
of the nation as whole there is no
convincing argument in favor of the
additional expenditure and the addi-
tional risk involved in adding "tail''
of electric power development to the
dog of flood control and reclamation.
The result will probably be to bur-
den the nation for the benefit of Cali
fornia, which is unwise, if not illegal
Clearly the construction of control
works on the Colorado river has been
already too long delayed They
should have begun some years ago
for the protection and development of
the Imperial Valley, if for no other
reason, but if this cannot be done
without saddling the nation with this
great and unnecessary electric power
development, it will be wiser to post
pone it indefinitely.
It is disheartening to find some Of
our ablest government leaders favor
ing such scheme. They must know
that it is economically unsound, and
their position can only be explained
as piece of political expediency be-
fore presidential election.

Every organization producing va
riety of products and having certain
functions to perform as does the ma
tional forests needs to conduct num-
erous Investigations and laboratory
experiments to learn the proper
methods of handling such a property.
states G. A. Pearson, director Of the
Southwestern Forest Experiment Sta.
ton.
Many varied and vexing problems
are encountered in the administration
of some twenty million acres of land
in the national forests. It is the pur-
pose and function of the district ex-
pertinent station staff to help solve
these problems.
There are, continues Mr.. Pearson,
many silvicultural problems of vital
Importance to the future welfare Of
our forests. For instance, how many
mature seed trees should be left to
insure a reproduction on cut over
land? How rapid is the growth OH
the young timber left on cut over
areas? How should the branches and
tops, termed brush by the foresters,
be disposed of at a reasonable cost
after logging so as to avoid the de-
struction of the new crop by fire
These are but few of the problems
on which the investigative staff are
working.
Then too, continues Mr.. Pearson,
trees have many natural and acquired
enemies. There are, for instance, the
bark beetles which frequently swarm
in large numbers and destroy many
thousands of feet Of merchantable
timber; and the tip moth which feeds
on the terminal branches of young
trees and greatly retards their growth
and development. Animal pests such
as porcupines feed on pine bark ana
girdle the trunks and branches caus-
ing loss. If such depredations are
distributed over large area of forest
land little damage is apparent but i'll,
for some peculiar reason, porcupines
congregate in large numbers In 4
small area much damage may be done,
particularly if this region has recent
" been logged and go to 70 per cent
Of the original stand has been re-
moved. In such cases preventive
measures are necessary. The beauti-
full, and generally harmless, tassel-
cared gray squirrels may also become
pest if they congregate in cut-over
areas.
Fungi is another agency that may
either be helpful or harmful to the
forest. These, if growing on live
trees, are harmful because they pro-
duce rot in the wood and render all or
portion of the tree useless for lum-
Der. Other fungi which rot fallen
branches, logs and debris left in the

ment is in the nature of unfair compe-
tition in which the government of the
United States should be the last to
enter; and it is safe to predict that if
the federal government should now
change its policy and enter upon the
development of electric power upon a
large scale, the result will be harm
full Private enterprise will be dis
couraged, and the outcome may be
that the federal government will find
itself engaged in purely commercial
enterprise for which it is i'll equipped.
All interference with business is dan
gerous, and this is peculiarly unneces-
sary and unwise.
Now if the development of electric
power were a necessary and integral
part of the enterprise of flood con-
troll of the Colorado river, the fore
ging objections might be overridden.
But exactly the opposite is the case.
The cost of converting this flood con
troll and reclamation scheme into an
electric power enterprise is of great
and unknown magnitude. In order to
adapt the scheme to the development
of electric power the best methods Of
