Vanishing America

Since 1900. the Indian population
OF the United States has increased
from 237, 1000 to $4,000. Authorities
say that Americas forests, also pop
ularly considered to be vanishing,
would grow more wood annually
than we cut if forest management
Is correctly applied and our forests
are protected against fire. So per-
sistent is natures urge to grow
trees that seed-trees left in modern
logging operations soon spread a
carpet of new growth over forest
land to produce new stand OF
timber. Fires are the greatest de-
stroyers of these young trees which
may be the forests of tomorrow.
