The land, he as serted, is a broad term including soil, forest life and the like. Stone said no one has the right to de stroy the values for the future cit izenry. Into all this must be figured the economic importance of the .for ests. Stone said the studies may lead to things such as this example: In the South Umpqua watershed, a stratum of water-impervious hardpan underlies a shallow over burden of soil. Douglas fir roots can't penetrate the hardpan, se must draw life from the foot or so of topsoil. But experiments have shown that sugar pine tends to send its taproot system through the hard pan to reach water below. It may be, he said, that a sugar pine forest to replace the fir forest would serve to break up the hard pan the pines' roots breaking through the heavy earth. In that way, the earth might be able to increase its water storage capacity, actually becoming a new reservoir for heavy rainfall in the watershed. Stone spoke before the weekly forum luncheon of the Roseburg Chamber of Commerce in the Ho tel Umpqua.
