PROGRESS II FOREST IM Government's Improvements In Reserves of Much Inter est to Oregon. WASHINGTON, D. C, Dec. 28. Oregon has a natural Interest In that part of tho report of tho Secretary of Agriculture which Is devoted to permanent Improvements on tho government's national forests. Such work as the construction of miles of road and trail, teldphone lines, drift and pasture fences, ranger houses and barns, has opened up and Im proved many square miles of torri torj In the thirteen national forests in the state, and for these and sim ilar purposes $G5,19L33 was spent during the last fiscal 'Year. Four hundred thtFtysoVen miles of trail and twenty-four Wiles of road, wore built, 7S miles of telephono lines wero strung, and tho forest ranges were Improved by the con struction on thirty-nine miles of pas turo fence. During the year twenty three houses, to be used for ranger quarters, and two barns and two corrals, for rangers' horses woro built. Four bildgos were construct ed and various misocjlaneous im provements were made. In speaking of tho permanent improvement work on all thd National Forests, the Sec retary of Agriculture has tho fol lowing to say In his annual roport: "Tho agricultural appropriation act of 1008 included an Item of $500,000, which was mado available for permanent Improvement work on the natlonai forestB. The object of this work is to help open up tho for ests to inore use and proyldo means for their belter ftnd more economical protection, through tho supply of means of Communication and trans portation, well-located field quarters, fire lines, fences to assist In tho handling of stock and watering places. These improvements aro es pecially investments of capital, which add greatly to tho value and usefulness of the forests. "Tho work completed during tho year included 3,400 miles of trails, 3,200 miles of telephone lino, 100 miles of wagon road, 40 miles of firo lino, 250 bridges, 550 cabins and barns, nnd COO miles o'f pasture and drift fences. In addition to tho sum provided by the specinl Improvement fund, over $100,000 from the gon oral fund of the service wns turned from current expenses to defray tho cost of this work, but much of tho work planned and urgently needed could not bo carried out because there was nothing with which to pay for it. "Detailed estimates covering a to tal of $2,000,000 for permanent Im provements, which It was desired to comploto in 1909, wero submitted to tho congress. They showed for tho entire amount exactly what It was proposed to undcrtako on each na tional forest, and at what cost. Tho amount provided by tho npproprlai tion was $COO,000. For 1910 estimates will again bo submitted for permanent Improvements, tho cost of which agiegato $974,981. These es timates aro tho result of specific and fully Itomized plans, which aro on filo In tho forest service. They aro In no sonso a request for a lump sum, tho spending of which remains to bo planned In detail after appro priation Is made. It Is of urgent Im portance that this work should bo provided for. "Though the construction of per manent Improvements qntall tho need of provision for their main tenance, tho added ofllc'ency of tho forests as economic resources secur od through theso Improvements rich ly lopays tho cost. With tho na tional forests as with any other re sources, tholr returns depend on tho oxtont to which development tnke3 placo through judicious outlays of capital. If the land Is not to remain a wlldornoss It must bo made sor vjceablo to tho needs pf civilized man by constructive oxpondlturos, Gorman cough syrup for colds and coughs at tho RED CROSS.
