Allen, forester 6f the "Western Forestry- and Conservation association, and actlnr secretary for the stats con servation commission,, returned yester day from 'the meeting; of the National Lumber . Manufacturers association - at New Orleans, where he delivered a pa per on protection against forest fires. nr. Alien says tne souwern umoer and lumber Interests have bo system whatever for protection against forest fires, but are beginning to .take notice of the rood, work done In the northwest along; these lines. He admits, however. that the danger from fire is not as great In" the pine districts as in the fir timber, where there is always more er less undergrowth. , He ' called . the at tention of the southern timber owners t- the fact that burning of the grass la the - great - forests killed off the . new crop ef , trees and hence bad an evil effect upon the propagation of the for ests. ' ..v-. - i- . On his way to Portland Mr. Allen stopped off at Oorvallls to speak be fore tn ureron Jtgricuitursj college students on the need of a stats forest policy in Oregon, and offered sugges tions as to what is wanted from the legislature for the promotion of suoh a policy. He explained that what the state wUl seed In the first place Is a state forester and a state forest fir patrol. . - - : r In regard to reforestration, Mr. Allen explained that the way to accomplish this is by fixed low taxation of burned or cutover lands, which will encourage tbelr being held and protected for s futur crop, the state to receive Its revenue mainly throurh a comparative ly, large ' tax upon th value of the stumpage when the future crop Is cut. An organisation Known as tbe Oregon Forest Fir assoclaUon was organised la this city a few. weeks aro for the purpose of getting established s forest fire patrol system, and a committee appointed at that time to get th vari ous district interested will report at s meeting to be held In this city next Wedaeday aflerDOoa. . - , : Sheet Music 2 for 25c Rube .
