TWO OLD TREES
iTwo yellow" fir trees wo ro re
cently cut in Clatsop county
Oregon, each was eight feet
across tli stump wliicli were
tight Icet fiom the ground.
The younger of these trees was
431 years old and its e'dei
brother 448 years. The young
er wus 19 yours old when Col
umbus discovered America and
the elder 36. When Lwts and
Clark made their winter camp
on Clatsop Beach a hundred
years ago, the younger tree was
331 years old and over seven
feet in diameter, and the older
wus 348 years old and about 7
feet through.
The record before us does not
give the height oi amount of
lumber the trees would make,
but us trees grow tall in Clatsop
co'iniy, Lie presumption is lhat
they were about 330 feet tall
each.
Thee trees were the harvest
that took centuries to produce
for tue woodmen. Will) nws
aud machinery it took at a
.-horl t1. us j to gather thi., Q ip
that had been tnaturi g lor
nearly half a thousand years.
Vheu the original forest is gone
what will our impatient lumber
men do for material with which
to curry on their business?
For the first seven months of
1903, fifty two ships l.idcned
with lumber suiled oceanwnrd
bearing lumber made from Ore
gon forests to the Orient, Europe
and Africa and iu all G4,5S0,
281 feet board measure. For
the same time 107,000,000 feel
wore shipped to California, and
large quantities to Iduho aud
points east of (ho Hocky
miuinlaiiia.
In Oregon, according to the
Columbia River and Oregon
T imbirmen, tliero were 403 saw
mills and o"8 shingle mills. Ttio
