Doc . The object of forestry
la to coneervo throuarh u." la tha
rheerlna; announcement contained In
tha annual report of tha secretary of
Agriculture, made public today. This
la somewhat different from tho object
aa aonorally understood In tho days
when Gffford Plnchot. aa Chief For
ester, had full say aa to tha handling
of forest reservation. But what doea
Secretary Wilson aay next? Road this:
"The National foreata ara now a
heavy eharare on tho Government and
much of the timber la over-mature.
A natural question Is: Why ara not tho
salee Increased, at leaat to a point at
which the forest will pay their way?
Tlasker Withheld Krwaa "alev
"Tho answer la readily irlven. 8ince
the panic of 107 the lumber market
baa been depressed- Dunns; the past
ear there haa been overproduction In
the Northwest, where the heavleat
stands of National forest timber ara
found. To obtain any treat Increaae In
tha receipts' from timber aalea last
year I ahould have had to offer tha
timber at a price far below Ita actnal
value.
"Within a relatively few years tho
timber on the National forests will be
In arrest demand to meet the fast-arrow-Ins;
necesaltlea and to help develop tha
West. I should be utterly dlsreg-ardful
of my responsibility and duty to the
public, which owna the timber. If I
were to permit lara-e amounts to be
needlessly sold on bargain-day terms,
and with tha knowledge that. Inatead
of promoting tha conservation of our
timber resources. I am accelerating;
their waste. "
In other words, while Secretary Wil
son. In one aentence, talka of conserva
tion through use. in the neat paragraph
he says be will not sell the overmature?
and deteriorating timber at normal or
"bargain-day" prices, but will let It
t stand and rot and, become utterly
' worthless. If this Is the Wilson Idea of
conservation with use." It la not far
different from the Plnchot type of con
servation. Wllaoa Idea Farther IllaatrateeL
To Illustrate further: "On the beet
information In hand." eaya Secretary
Wilson. "I fix each year a maximum
rut to bo allowed during the year,
usually for each forest, without jeop
ardising the future supply of timber for
local use. This Is done to prevent over
rutting. The maximum rut authorised
during 191 1 was a little less than J.IOe.
OO.OOO board feet. There waa oat on
the National forests during the fiscal
year 111 a total of almost 800.000. 00
board fret of timber, of which about
lTS.004.aoe feet were aold and over 111.
Ooo.eoo feet cut under free use. It la
estimated that the annual cut which
might be obtained from the National
forests without diminishing the avail
able supply (since the Increase by
growth would offset It) la over 1.150.
00.000 feet, or more than sis times
what waa cut."
Here, again, one-slith of the mature
timber that should have been cut waa
old or given away: flve-slxtha waa
withheld because bidders would not of
fer a price which Secretary Wilson
thought waa fair. The timber that he
sold last year brought In 1841.000. at an
average price of 12.6S per thousand. 12
rents more than he asked the year be
fore. Thus, with an overstocked mar
ket, as he describes It. he Is asking
more for Government timber than he
did a year ago. and refuses to sell even
this overmature timber when he eannot
get what he thtnka that timber Is
worth. This. then, according to his
own words. Is Secretary Wilson's Idea
of "conservation with use."
rivo BUtllea fet Vatawket,
Further peruaal of the report brings
out other Interesting Information. For
Instance. It la found that 20.000.000
feet out of tT6.000.000 sold was timber
killed by the forest fires or 110. The
rVrretary aaya be hopes ultimately to
sell J. 00ft. 000. 000 feet of the C.OOVO0.0oe
feet killed by those fires: tha rulk of
that dead timber, he aaya. la too re
mote from transportation to permit of
Its sale. Therefore, the 8 000.000.0o0
feet, like the overmature timber, will
stand untouched until It falls to the
ground.
There waa lesa grazing In the forest
reserves during the past year than In
ll. Grazing permits were Issued for
1.352.000 cattle. 1.000 horses, 7.171000
sheep. 4500 bogs and 7S.000 goata. The
amount received In crazing fees waa
I1S.0. which Is 151.41 less than the
year before. The regulation of grazing
In forest reserves, says the Secretary,
la only Incidental, yet grazing Is more
profitable from the Government stand
point than the selling of timber. The
stockmen ara paying more for the use
of the foreet reservea than are the lum
bermen. Secretary Wllson"a report
makes It appear that the Government
la maintaining "grazing reservea." In
which the conaervatlon of timber la In
cidental to the regulation of the range.
TURBINE SYSTEM REJECTED
Nary Find Reclprocatlna; Engines
Are More Economical.
WASHINGTON. Dec. After com
petitive tests on small vessels, the
Nay department has decided to aban
don the turbine type of engines for
battleships and to substitute the re
ciprocating engines this despite the
la.-t that virtually all other natlona
have adopted the turbine engine.
l:ear Aum'.ral II. I. Cone, chief of the
bureau of steam engineering, who ron
.lu. t-.l the tests, says It was discovered
t)iat t.-.e reciprocating engine was
about St per cent more economical. The
battleships New Tork and Texaa. now
belter built, will be equipped with them.
Admiral Cone adds, however, that the
raw turbines aa Installed in the fast
cruisers and scouts have materially
raised the speed at which these ves
sels have been safely and continuously
drlten.

taken 4ert took place Friday after

corner-stone of a now House for Girls
In this city. The bouse, when com

been given by Lord Strathcona.
Right Rev. Charles Scadding, Bishop

a bousa In every university city, and
expressed his Interest in the admirable
plans. Ho has visited similar houses

Oregon In Eugene.
"Tha people In Oregon." ho said,
"recognize the need for such a place.
where young women students at tho
university can have all the oom forts
