I WHITMAN NATIONAL j
j FOREST ENLARGED
I Acting under the authority of a'
' special act of congress approved Sep-
jtember 8. 1918, the president has, i
! on recommondation of the secretary i
oi agriculture, signed a proclamation !
aaning approximately 50,000 acres
to tho Whitman national forest, Ore
gon. The lands involved are situated
on the divide between the John Day,
1'owder and Burnt rivers, In eact
central Oregon.
Over 4.000 acres consuls of timber
lands which were Included in patent
ed entries. As the roault of suits
brought by the United Staten, the
patents ror these entries were can
celed by the courts because they'
were acquired through fraud or mls-
take, and the lands were returned to!
government ownership. Tho can-j
celed claims carry a total estimated !
stand of nearly 46,000,000 feet board 1
measure of tlmbor. j
Much of the other land Included in
the addition is privately owned. It I
consists largely of cut-over timber
land, on which the timber growth Is'
rapidly reproducing. One portion of
the act of congress authorizing the
addition provides especially for the
exchange of government timber for
privately owned lands In the Whit
man national forest which may be
chiefly valuable for the production
of timber or the protection of stream
flows. Several applications for ex
changes of this character have al
ready been submitted.
