New York, realizing the need of
state supply OF lumber is distributing
10000 trees annually. TO be planted ON
cleared land, thus insuring supply
for the future This same policy of
reforesting lands formerly devoted TO
agriculture rs being adopted by all of
the Atlantic and New England states,
Prof. Kirkland spoke Of the great
Importance OF the lumber industry TO
this portion OF the Puget Sound dis
trict, the increasing number OF pulp
mills, in many cases built adjacent to
the sewmills, utilizing large quantities
OF the previously waste materials, with
the demand for pulp growing yearly.
Fifty per cent Of the industries OF
this section Of the state are depend-
ent on the lumber business. directly or
indirectly. geattle is one of the twelve
largest centers Of lumber manufacture
in the nation. This section, apparent
ly is only at the beginning Of It's de-
velopment In the industry, provided
the source Of supply Is not exhausted,
Since, Mt the present rate, all privately
owned timber In the Puget Sound
section will be cut In ten years II re-
forestation conservation and fire pre-
vention programs are not actively
pursued, the question is most i'm
portant.
Here on Vashon Island the need of
conservation and replacement Of our
forests Is correspondingly great. With
the unwlse cutting Of our forests, with
the destructive fires from which We
each year suffer, destroying the young
trees which should be permitted to
replace the larger trees, there Is real
need Of saving what we now have,
and experimenting by means of re-
planting. The county should be asked
for equipment for fighting forest fires,
a program Of education that will bring
about greater care in fire prevention
should be pursued, as It is undeniable
that most Of our fires are incendiary,
possibly not through malice SO much
az through lack Of intelligent con-
sideration Of the great economic waste
involved. Doubtless many Of the fires
Of the past season were started in an
effort to destroy caterpillar nests, a
plan not at all feasible.
Professor Kirkland stressed the need
Of planting intelligently and more
intensive use Of the land already
cleared, rather than further clearing
pointing out the advantage Of well
cared for cherry orchards, and chicken
ranches, rather than wholesale clear
ing of our land.
At the close OF his address Professor
kirkland spent some time III answer
ing questions that were put to him by
his interested audience.
The concluding number of the
evenings entertainment were group

the problem Of keeping them con-
tinually productive is very vital
problem,
Prof. Kirkland said that OF the 10
million acres OF land in Washington,
two million we're devoted TO agricul-
ture, two million TO cities, railroads
and highways and that west Of the
Cascades were ten million acres OF
waste and forest lands. II cutting OF
timber were TO be carried on at the
present rate 10000 acres would be
cleared In century, but II proper
methods OF reforestation were pursued
continually, with the rapid growth
trees make In this country the supply
Of available timber would remain
practically the same as ut the present
time. The replanting OF the trees, as
the land is logged off Is one OF the
greatest conservation needs the state
today.
II the program of reforestation Is not
carried out Washington faces q de-
pletion Of her great source Of natural
wealth equal to Pennsylvania, at one
time an important lumber-producing
state. Pennsylvania spends annually
$25,OO0O00 for freight on lumber alone,
whereas had one or two million dollars
been spent for reforestaticn there
would have been no necessity Of this
imrortation. at triple the price II
