LOCAL INDUSTRIES
FOREST AREAS

What does a national forest mean in
the way of local industry? Or is it
just something outdoors and remote?
The Minnesota Arrowhead Associa-
ton asked Howard Hopkins, supervi-
sor of the Chippewa National Forest
at Cass Lake. That is the forest which
is now on production basis.
The Superior National Forest, though
four times as large, is only just get
ting into production. The state for
ests are so far not much more than
paper propositions. The st. Croix
reserve in Pine county is only a pro-
ject. But the Chippewa forest is
working.
Well, the Chipewpa forest is now
ready to supply one going concern at
Deer River, and keep it going; supply
one projected enterprise at Cass Lake
and keep that going; supply another
local mill from third forest unit and
still another from the fourth forest
unit-and keep them all going on the
basis of perpetual yield.
That is what can be done from 200,-
900 to 100000 acres The Superior for
est is four times as large. The state
forests are expected to run to LOCO, 900
acres or Whereabouts.

and answered the question quite COM
pletely. What can be done on the

and studies were made as to the
growth of each species and future
crops that might be expected. While
these studies have not as yet been
completed, they have secured suff1-
cient information to allow the formu-
lation of plans as to the handling OF
the timber crops of the forest in re-
gard to markets and local industries.
It has been found that the Chippewa
forest can best be divided into three
or four subdivisions AS indicated by
the accompanying map Each of these
units, or subdivisions, will produce an
annual crop of mature timber for the
establishment and perpetuation of a
local mill.
The accompanying diagram indi-
Gates the present plan. The mature
timber on unit 1 will be sufficient to
supply the timber annually for the
perpetual operation of a small sawmill
at Cass Lake. At present there is no
sawmill there and the industries are
seriously crippled for this reason. The
citizens of CaSs Lake who fully realize
the potential value of a forest area
adjacent to them are now trying to
interest mill owner in the PROPOSE
ton, and it is only a matter of time
before mill will be located in that
city-and this local industry will be
started and located at Cass Lake, due
almost entirely to the perpetual an
nual supply of raw material which the
adjacent forest area can offer
Unit is the region which will logic
ally be handled for the supplying Of
ripe trees for the local box mill at
Deer River. This mill forms a vital
part of the industries of this town
and has cut off very largely all the

and in order to effect the change Mr..
ChriStianson has been compelled to
draft and introduce no less than five
bills. This is little unusual; in fact,
we think it's record, but it helps to
illustrate our point that there is not
much that's new under the dome of
the capitol.
Bear Bills.
The state being a sovereign body,
cannot be sued. If you make mis-
take and pay money to the state it
takes legislature act to refund 1t
to you. If the state, or its agents
injure you, you cannot go to the law
about 1t, you must go to the legisla-
ture. Many Of the bills introduced
into the legislature are short acts to
reimburse someone for losses, injuries
or money wrongfully paid to the state
At each session considerable num-
Der of claims are submitted for the
depredations of wild animals These
are "bear bills. A bill for a pecul-
lar claim of this kind was offered
this week. About year ago, on the
outskirts of a northern Minnesota
town, bull moose suddenly emerged
from the brush and charged a pass
ing automobile. He caved in the
whole side of the car; also, he broke
his neck. Under the law the unfor-
tunate owner of the car had to turn
the body of the moose over to the
state. That gave him an idea, so here
is his bill to the state for the $342 rs
that it cost him to repair his car.
Strong for Education.
More than one-half of all the
money appropriated by the legisla-
ture is for education, fact in which
the people of Minnesota should take
considerable satisfaction They are
perfectly justified in pointing with
pride to it. The appropriations COM
mittee of the house and the finance
committee of the senate this week
began consideration of the public
schools for funds for the biennium
When these requests are finally pass
ed upon for the two year period, the
total will amount to more than $21,-
100000.
So great is the clamor for places on
the appropriations committee of the
house that the membership of the
committee was enlarged this week to
IS. If the house does not watch out
the first thing it knows the appropria-
tions committee, already the biggest
committee, will be able to outvote it

adjacent timber outside the forest
area. The owner of the mill at Deer
River has been faced with possibility
of moving his mill with consequent
great economic loss to Deer River
due to the growing shortage of raw
material. Unit of the Chippewa Ma
tional Forest will in all probability be
able to supply an annual supply of
mature timber for this mill to keep
it perpetually in Deer River. With
out this supply the mill would be
forced to move in relatively short
time.
Unit 8 has no adjacent mill of
any size and no local industries. It is
planned to put up sufficient amount
OF timber now in need of cutting to
make 1t worth while for the successful
bidder to install permanent mill
near the center of the area and there
after sufficient ripe timber will be
ready for sale each year on this area
to supply this mill perpetually. In
other words, this unit will probably
cause the establishment of a perman-
ent sawmill with the permanent in
duStry both in the woods end and mill
end of the operation.
Unit 4 Is now being examined and
cruised, and growth studies are being
taken to determine how the annual
crop of timber to be cut of this area
crops as stated above will be very apt
should be handled.
When the Forest Service offers tim
Der for sale it is always put up for
bids and the highest bidder secures
the timber. At once it occurs to one
that this plan Of handling the timber

CHIPPEWA NATIONAL FOREST

Chippewa can also be done on the
Superior, only on larger scale as the
Superior Is about four times as large
as the Chippewa. Mr.. Hopkins said:
It is often asserted by those who
profess to have studied the question
that setting aside considerable areas
in northern Minnesota for the produc-
ton of forest crops will kill the in
dustries in that region and tend to re-
convert the area as whole into
forest wilderness and stifle the towns
and communities in the entire neigh
borhood. If one really searches for
the facts in the case, he will discover
an entirely different situation and
that the result to be secured by set
ting aside areas for timber production
will mean the building up of commu-
industries in the neighborhood that
will be of greater benefit than any
other use of the area.
The oldest area in Minnesota that
has been set aside and handled for
the raising of forest crops is the Chip
pewa National Forest, situated in parts
of CaSs, Beltrami, and Itasca coun-
ties and comprising net area of only
$4,000 acres of government land
handled by the United State Forest
Service. Since this forest was COM
pletely turned over to the Forest
Service in 1923, the timber sold has
largely been confined to mature and
overmature timber in need of removal
to prevent decay. In the meantime
the area was cruised and mapped to
find out what the resources were in
the way of timber and young growth
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1929-01-25

to break down for what is there to
prevent big mill from some distant
point bidding and securing all the
timber offered for sale on any or all
units, then shipping this timber out
and wrecking the local industries.
While there Is no absolute proof as TO
why this will not happen, there is on
hand the best proof in the world in
the shape of previous experience
which is after all the best of teachers.
When the first timber sales were made
on the Chippewa forest, the bulk of
and shipped out Of this vicinity.
Gradually these outside shipments
have dwindled and at the same time
sales to local mills have increased. It
Is becoming more apparent every day
that the days OF the large mills are
rapidly passing and in their place is
rising small mills which will saw the
raw products near the cutting area
and ship out lumber rather than logs.
This means that local industries will
be built up and continued ass3Nng as
the supply of raw material is applied.
The one way to establish and main
tain perpetual saw mill industry in
any one community Is by securing
perpetual small supply of timber from
that vicinity. This can only be done
If sufficient area is set aside for
the raising of the timber crops The
fact that such area can be moderately
small in size Is well illustrated by the
accompanying diagram showing the
proposed method Of establishing and
supplying perpetual saw mill indus
tries in the vicinity of the Chippewa
Notional Forest
Experience has demonstrated on the
Chippewa National Forest that It's
timber crop will be devoted more and
more to the establishment and main
tenance of permanent small saw mills
and local industries. What is being
proved on this forest will undoubtedly
be true on other areas set aside for
forest crops in northern Minnesota
There will undoubtedly be exceptions
to this plan as in the case of large
private companies who will own forest
areas for timber production to supply
their own distant mills, but these
cases will be exceptions rather than
the general rule. The setting aside of
large tracts in northern Minnesota for
