Water Value
In Northwest
PORTLAND Lfl Water now is
a more valuable forest ' product
than timber in' some areas of th
Pacific Northwest, a Soil Conser
vation Service official said Wednes- j
day. . !
, R. 1 A. Work, head of the water ;
forecast section of the Soil Conser-1
vation Service at Portland, told the
Society - of American Foresters of
examples jn the Rogue and Klaro-
ath River baiina in Orcenn.
There the water value is $025
per acre, while timber, on a sus
tained yield basis, is $175 per acre
in the Rogue Basin and $110 per
acre in the Klamath, he said.
The water value of forests can
be expected to increase as the
years go by. Work said, predicting
that .the (arm use of water and
water-using industries will increase
from 8 to 10 times in the foresee
able future.
Curtis u M. Everts Jr., Portland,
sanitation and engineering: expert
fnr thm (Ivrrnn Bn,.) f U.Wk
urged great care in management
of watershed forests,
He gave a variety of suggestions
to the foresters, including advice
to build roads well away from
stream beds, to cover log landings
and skid trails with light slash to
prevent soil erosfon. and to achieve
quick reforestation of cut areas, by
hand planting, if necessary.
Fire and insect 'problems in
Alaska's forests were described by
two foresters.
Wi F. McCambridge of the Forest
Service office at Juneau said
nearly every acre in the Tongass
National Forest has suffered dam
age from the black-headed bud
worm. In the Juneau area, there
are no uninfested spruce or hem
lock trees, he said.

plaint from Berg's Market that!

luted. When found, the boys car
ried packs containing among
other things a .22 rifle, fishing
