Stamps given upon request. Double Tradin Bull Ilun watershed, through legisla tion' providing for exchanges In the Oregon national forest. Is being steadliy consolidated Into government ownership by. the city of Portland, according to C. J. Buck, assistant district forester. There are at present 28 private timber ownera In the Bull Run reserve who are tempted to carry on logging operations on their timber land, and for these the forest service is attempting to find lo cations elsewhere. All the privately owned land in the reserve has been cruised and a large portion of It appraised by the forest ' service by means of funds appropriated by congress. The law in all cases leave the final decision In 'the hands of the Mcretary : of agriculture., and in each case the exchange must clearly be of benefit to the national forest before It is approved. . ' lr Protection Facilitated Other land exchange bills apply to the different forests in the Whitman, the Ochoco and the Paulina, now a part of the Deschutes, Fremont and Crater for--ests. . Through entire government ownership ef the Bull Run watershed, not only will danger of .water contamination be -avoided, but the work of fire protection and control will be facilitated. Trading of public land has long been -an Industry in Oregon," explained Mr. Buck. "In early days, under the work ings of the old lieu land law, certain persons became somewhat overzealous and certain federal Indictments result- - cdv The old lieu land law, which was repealed by an act of congress , and is now a thing of the past, made possible the exchange of government land in for est reserves for vacant public land out side. Under the workings of this law , much worthless land was purchased In side the forests from private owners and traded In on the baste of scrip for valu able Oregon timber land located nearer , Settlements And legging operations. ' .' 'ft "In spite of this unfavorable begin ning, a careiuiiy thought-out syBtem or land exchanges has now been worked for exchanging land with private-land owners to the benefit of both parties. "In fixing the boundaries of the na tional forests, naturally some privately owned land was Included. Practically an the land most valuable for agricul ture or1 , for timber had been privately acquired before the forests were cre ated. Fifteen per cent of the lands in side the forest boundaries in . Oregon is privately owned. Much of this land was purchased and held for its timber vslue. In many cases it lies at high al titudes and . is not contiguous to any present logging operations. The pres ence of this private timber land in the forests . Increases the cost of national forest administration, fire protection, forest management, and other activities. "The owner of this timber land is in. an equally bad position. He has often obtained title to scattered tracts, mak ing concentrated and efficient fire pro tection and logging operations Impos sible. More and more individual own ers of ' these scattered tracts are com ing to the forest service with the propo sition of exchange. Congress has al ready passed several laws whereby such exchanges may be effected. In fact, a number of exchanges have already been roaae to me satisfaction - of both the government and the private owner. : Carefal Seratlay Hade , '.The ' laws usually ; 'provide for ex change on the basis of equal acreage and equal ' value. The government cruises carefully and appraises all the timber on both areas, and no exchanges are made that are not clearly of benefit to the public, even In the event where the values are found to be equal. The Idea back of the exchanges is the con solidation of national forest lands, and at the same tune, as far as possible,- of private lands also. "Large areas df cut-over timber land In private, ownership, which arc almost valueless after the timber is removed, and which In many cases will revert to the state for taxes, win to .,o extent be acquired by the federal gov ernment . through exchange of small tracts of timber In order that, under government ownership and protection, future crops of timber .may be ob tained. ' . .'PlS-!ire8ta of Oregon furnished MOOveop.ooo feet of saw timber in 1917. Under proper forest management they can furnish nearly twice this amount of timber annually forever. Proper forest management provides for adequate pro tection from fire, insects and trespass ; the harvesting of the timber as a crop at suitable Intervals, and provision for restocking the cut-over areas with a new Stand of trees. Much or. Oregon's future development depends upon her forest resources.and It ts very impor 5.ant., these resources be properly Women's Crepe Waists At $6.95 Second Floor A special group of women's high-grade .waists repriced downward for the Inventory Sale.
