This Is the parallel drawn by IS. t.
Allen, forester for the Western Forestry
&' Conservation association, .In a book
" he has Just Issued on "Practical Pores
try in the- Pacific Northwest," and In
wMch paTtlcular stress is laid upon the
danger of forest" fires and the destruc
tion wrought by the flames from time
to time.
Demands Quick Action.
"Forest fire destruction is u danger
in every way as real and immediate as
.riot or Invasion," the writer goes on to
exnlatn in ' this connection, "equally
measurable In losses to us today and
more far-reaching In effect upon future
prosperity. Although less sensational,
it demands no less prompt action."
Continuing, the writer says that the
foregoing facts prove "that our present
forest policy is unprofitable to the state
and the citlsens." In suggesting a rem
edy he sets forth that forest fires are
almost always unnecessary, that they
can be prevented by care and caution,
that the public, including lumbermen
and loggers, should become Impressed
with the danger of carelessness in deal
ing with fire where it may. endanger
standing timber. Forest fires, he points
out, "usually result from a neglect of
consideration for Injury and distress to
others which is not shown by the Amer
ican people In any other connection.
-Menaoe to Industry.
"The traveler or resident in the for
est regions simply falls to realise that
his .own welfare and that of countless
others requires the same precaution not
to, let fire escape, rtd the same activ
ity in extinguishing fires, he discovers,
' that are accorded as a matter of course
4n, cities and towns."
.In reality, he contends, they are more
important. In the city Insurance and
capital come to the rescue, labor Is em
ployed and - ouslness Is resumed. But i
when the forest burns. Industry dleS and
labor Is driven away empty handed.
The writer calls attention to the
fact fairly good, fire laws are on the
Statute books, yet .every forest cont-,1
rounfty sees fire after fire" set through t
lsfnorsifce. ' carelessness br purpose,
without giving any attention to the
guilty party. In cities, however in
significant In the damage, arson leads
to the penitentiary. Occasionally an
arrest is made in an especially aggrav
ated case, but invariably aquittsl fpl
lowe because the community-considers
the matter none of Its business, and
then the value of the fire law la at
end jn, that-region. ., ..'
Patrol .System Weeded.
As a" solution, the writer sets forth
-the absolute necessity of a strong; pat
rol system, so that the forests will
be safeguarded Just as- are the
buildings and property of a city, and in
connection therewith a strong public
sentiment and deep interest. ' ; :
The book deals with every phase
of forestry logging and .; lumbering,
and, at the very beginning 'gives the
significant Information that five states
Of , Montana, Idaho, Washington, , Ore
gon and California,, contain half the
merchantable lumber In the United
States, today. ? S '.T'r 'i-"If -.1. .:.; '' . :,
i,. In dealing with the subject "Forest
ry, and the' Public," Mr. Allen says that
forest wealth is community wealth and
that " the 1 public's Interest ' Is affected
Very little) by ' the passage of timber
lands Into private ownership, for all
the owner can get out of It is the stump
age value. The people get everything
else. -.The' forests earn nothing ex
cept by belng cut and shipped to the
markets of the , world, -
Tint of xind Published.
The book is the first fit Its kind ever
published in the Pacific northwest and
is the first comprehensive discussion
of the subject by a western authority,
the writer being a professional forester
who has lived on the Pacific coast for
26 years and for 18 years engaged In
government, state and private forestry.
Perhaps of greatest value to owners
Of timber lands and farmers are the
chapters devoted to the management
of forests and the relation the forest
holds to the farmer In these chapters
the writer goes very fully Into the sub
ject of , f orestatlon, the rate of. growth
and probable - returns and many 'other
features that heretofore' have not 'been'
touched by authorities or students along
these lines. ,
A limited number of the books has
been published and to defray the ac
tual cost of printing ' the association
sells them at H cents the copy. They
may be obtained from the offices of the
