Benton Mackaye Contributor.
Benton Mackaye of the United States
Department of Jfabcr has contributed an
article entitled “Reconstruction and Nat
ural Resources,” in which he discusses
Oregon’s soil, forests, ores and water
power, in the light of, and aid of, recon
struction. Mr. Mackaye says, “National
reconstruction is going to require state
reconstruction, as well as the most
friendly possible co-operation between
the two jurisdictions. And it is a prom
ising sign to see the state of Oregon, and
its University, taking a firm hold in the
leadership of this movement.
In a paper on the idle hands of Oregon,
written by Thornton T. Manger, of the
United States Fore t Service, promoting
the idea of the back-to-the-land move

Mnnger cited the need for farmers in \
both eastern and western Oregon. In the !
latter part of the state there are 2,000,
000 acres of unimproved, slashed-over
land. 50 per cent of which is agricultural,
and which is sufficient to support 12,500
families, allowing 80 acres to the farm.
Land Mot Productive,
i It is pointed out by Mr. Monger that
i much of this land in its present state
! is not productive, and it is his idea that
i the government should take steps to en
I courage the little farmer and the home
i steader by financing the clearing of these
j lands as well as putting up houses and
! buildings. This backing would greatly as
j sist the beginner and could in time be
paid off by small installments.
Along this idea of reconstruction. Hurt
1’. Kirkland, professor in the College of
' Forestry of Washington, has contributed
; an article on the “Continuous Forest
j Production in the Pacific Northwest.” A
I summary of the program which he sub
I mitted to the Commonwealth Review is
| as follows:
To Require Reforestation.
1. Require that all permanent forest
lands be reforested to at least 75 per
cent full stocking following cutting. The
cost of this is so small that it is not
| unreasonable to put it on the private
! owner as a part of his obligation ns a
: trustee of an important renewable re
! source.
2. Require protection of young
growth from fire. In case any is destroy
ed the owner should be required to re
forest. This will insure efficient protec
tion.
3. Begin consolidating ownership in
economic hands and in workable units for
continuous forest production.
4. Place each tract on a continuous
sustained yield basis so that each year
income will be available to meet all ex
penses and pay annual returns on the
investment, just as a farmer or railroad
or city block pays annual returns.
The Review also contains in this is
sue an article written by John II. Lewis,
state engineer, who offers suggestions of
available projects for employment in ir
rigation and drainage work. He discusses
the Chamberlain bill now before congress
which provides for loaning the credit of
the United States for irrigation districts,
for the construction of approved projects
by the federal government, these to be
turned over to the community upon com
pletion.

spent in the service, that I did not get
across. Things were breaking pretty
good when the armistice spoiled it all.
After being commissioned at Hancock
I was finally assigned to the 95th di

“I have been lecturing in the divisional

fire. There was a lieutenant colonel,
three majors, a number of captains, and
first and second lieutenants galore in
the school and the work was very inter
esting. I was making good and had been
recommended for a first lieutenancy.
