ue. The latter, held in the ground for economic or other reasons, is like money in a hank. It can he drawn upon as the need arises.
 But growing trees, like all sni- mate things, must eventually attain a maturity after which they decline, die and rot away. This is a law of nature which even scientific forestry cannot entirely wipe out
 Causes Real Problem
 Some of this is helpful since it acts as restorative to the soil But where the disparity between the ac- tual cut and the potential is as great as exists here. evils arising rom il lead to a real problem in conservation. Good quality, sound lumber will not come from areas where the growth is too dense There are limits to the number of trees that an acre or any kind of soil will sustain.
 Failure to harvest them as they reach maturity has resulted in over crowding on most of Alaska's na- tional forests areas Mature trees have aged and died in countless numbers in the past 2S years. All Of this has meant economic loss. This 1 is a fact recognized by the forest i service and is the cause of real con- eern. One Of the main reasons be- hind the earnest desire of that or ganization to have the pulp and newsprint manufacturing industry developed here is to end this by mak- ing it possible to put into play scientific forestry practices, thinning out the denser growths, instituting orderly harvesting and improving the existing stands.
 The economy of this is plainly ev- ident. And it would be a step to- ward real and planned conservation.

(BY JOHN E. PEGUES)

JUNEAU, Alaska - The timber cut from Alaska's national forest areas in 1897 was 35,359,00O feet board measure, it was revealed by B. F. HeintZleman, regional forester. Stumsage receipts totaled s53,317.
 The years cut was 4,563,000 feet smaller than that Of 1886. and re- ceipts were reduced 1,291. The to- tai cut since the creation Of nation al forest areas in the Territory in 1859 $ I.0o9. 9.094,0 000 feet. and total receipts s1.6S7,606.
 Two Forest Areas
 There are two national forests. in the Territory-Tongass and Gnu zach. The former, which covers most of Southeastern Alaska, contains the major portion of the timber resour- ces, although the Chugach, lying along the central coastal region, is an important source of supply for To al needs in that section.
 The relative value of the resodr- ces is reflected in the record of the annual cut for the past 27 years. The Tongass production for that period is 975.463,00o feet, and that Of the Chugach, 112,627.000. Re ceipts are respectively s1.41S,539, and s169,067
 Less Than Possible
 IL is significant to note that the entire cut from both forests since 1909 is less than the annual poten- tial cut for the Tongass forest as officially estimated oy the forest service. This calculation, based upon years Of careful study, surveys, map ping and selective cruises showed that it is possible to cut 1,500,00O feet of timber each year Tn the Ton. gass in perpetuity.
 That is another way of saying that the annual replacement growth would replentish an annual cut fol all time to come of billion and one-half feet of timber. The faci that the actual yearly cut is now about one fortieth of that amount indicates in some measure the degree in which failure to bring our Al aska timber resources to extensive use is resulting in real waste.
 Live timber, unlike most of oul mineral resources, is not capable o being stored and preserving its val

FIGHT SALOON LAW

measure obtained a supervisory
writ of control from the State Su-

Judge Padbury of Helena ruled
in district court that the measure
was an emergency appropriation

The new writ places full control
over the law in the Supreme trib-

chosen the San Juan's Day tradi-
tion to spread this information. IT
always rains at p. M, on San
Juan's Day says tradition For
more than a hundred years our
native population has perpetuated
this tradition and years without
number 1t has come true. Last year
rain fell on International and Nor
