Timbermen, as usual, are not surprised at the prevailing forest fires this fall, and it is reported mat such rich districts as Santiam are now endangered. w Oregon has nearly twice as much standing timber as Washington. The burned era largely exceeds the cut era, and all measures taken to prevent this seem to be useless. Every year adds to the enormous loss, pruning the resources of the state in a terrible manner, and taking it altogether is a loss of millions of dollars to the state. Accepting government figures, the 5000 square miles of burned forest in Oiegon once supported 54.000,000.000 feet of the best timber on earth. In computing the state's enormous timber resources government officials place the average stand of commercial timber on the forest lands west of the Cascade, at 17,000 feet per acre. ' Stringent measures should be adopted to stop much of the forest fire loss, as it is very often caused by carelessness. Efforts will be made in this direction.--Pendleton E. O.
