OREGON'S BIG FOREST f IRES
According to the latest reports, Oregon
has lest as much from forest fires as
San Francisco lost in the recent earth
quake, the only difference heing that
Oregon's loss oomes annually by degrees.
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
