Some Economic Aspects of the
Forest Situation

No adequate conception of the for
estry movement in our country can be
had without reference to the role
which forests have played in the de-
velopment of this nation and to the
dangers which face us today from the
standpoint of forest production. This
country was originally blessed with a
tremendous area of virgin forest
growth, estimated at 1922 million
acres, covering all Of the land east of
the Mississippi, the Lake States, the
Rocky Mountain region, and the Pa
cific Northwest. In the early years OF
settlement, reductions in the area of
forest land were confined largely to
land clearing. Timber was abundant
and of little value; at the same time,
the steady growth of the country de-
manded an increase in farm acreage.
Consequently in the east $50 million
ceres were cleared prior to 1880, this
area comprising about % per cent of
the total eastern forest. Clearing OF
agricultural land thereafter constitu-
ted but very minute amount OF the
total of forest destruction.
In the meantime, the cutting of our
forests for lumber and other products
was we'll under way. The lumber in
dustry, as such, started in the North
west and from there moved south
ward and westward. First, Maine,
then New York, and by 1860, the
State of Pennsylvania, led in lumber
production, and by 1870 Michigan was
in the lead. The Lake States for
ests, at first thought inexhaustible, re-
tanned the lead in forest production
until around 1900, when leadership
shifted to the South. Now, after
thirty years, the timber industry OF
the South is waning, while the states
of Washington and Oregon are assum-
ing the leadership in forest produc-
ton. How long the virgin forests of
the Northwest will last is matter of
conjecture, usually estimated by eco
nomists at from 80 to so years.
Since the cutting, the forest areas
have reproduced rather poorly, and
large areas are now classified as waste.
The reasons for this have been large
ly economic. AS long as there was
cheap virgin timber available, it did
not pay the lumberman to cut careful
ly or to provide for regrowth. Forest
fires have commonly followed cutting,
carrying on the devastation.
Summing up our forest situation,
we find that in this country at the
present time our heritage of 1922 mil
| lion acres of virgin forest has melted
away to present figure of 1873 mil
lion acres. Besides this area, we have
$50 million acres of culled second
growth lands restocking at least in
part, while there are 81 million acres
not restocked. The original stand of
timber in this country was about s.
200 billion board feet while the pres
ent stand totals only 1000 billion
board feet, or about one-fourth.
Our forest problem today is two
fold-frst to provide timber sup
ply for the future, and secondly, to
utilize the forest land which is idle.
Both are of great importance. We are
essentially a wood-using nation which
has ridden the wave of prosperity on
our abundant wood supplies. To lose
these supplies will put US under a
great handicap. On the othe rhand,

vast reaches of our land can be impor-
tant economically through forest pro-
duction, the only use to which they
are suited. Forests growing continual
ly on such land will produce needed
wood and they will also support labor
and capital in their harvesting.

so long as this is true we need not
worry so much about the bogies of

by our free traders at home.

My dear Mrs. Jerome:
MY husband recently died. For
the last three years have been
in love with another man and l
imagined that he was in love with
me. He made violent declarations
of love to me and 1onged for the
time when I would be free to be
his only. Now, that I am free he
scarcely notices me. In fact, ne
tries to avoid me. cannot un-

more in me. Can you explain IL?
WIDOW.
Very likely he is one of those mod
ern pests, the bachelor who preys up
on other mems wives.
A man who hasn't the nerve te
take a wife of his own; who is too
selfish to want to give up his free
dom; he plays married women be-
cause he thinks they are safer" Al
long as the husband is alive he has
no fear of complications which might
lose him his freedom and force him
to assume the responsibility OF wife
and possible family.
