4 EIGIIT PAGES. DAILY EAST OREGONIAN, PENDLETON. OREOON. TUESDAY, JULY 7, !$, PAGX TORES. TO 'S ruriESTS The Oregon Forestry ' association, which W8B first orgaiilze'd Octobor 9, 1896, and reorganized December 22, 1906, has begun the publication of a monthly magazine, The' Oregon Fores ter, at Corvallls, and sets' forth a dec laration of principles and a plea for forest preservation, as follows: This organization solicits your sup port and co-ofurratlon In effecting: A campaign of publicity for the pur pose of educating our people as to the great economic value of the forests of the state. An awakening of our people to the necessity and Importance of legisla tion on behalf of the' forests of our state. A public sentiment' In favor of con servative forestry and forest protec tion, i An' Intelligent State ' forest policy. Here are a few 'figures that are worth your careful attention: Our forest area 1b approximately 30,000,000 acres. At least one-third, and probably more, of this area Is of such character that no other crop will equal In profit that of a permanent forest cover. Oregon today possesses more stand ing timber than any other state In the Union. She hag over one-half of the standing timber of the Puclflc coast area, and over one-fifth of the stand ing timber f the United States, not Including the Insular possessions. The crop standing on the commer cial Umber land of Oregon today Is estimated to be 300,000.000,000 board feet. The output or lumber for 1906 was approximately 2,000,000,000 board feet, and for the lust year, 1,540,000, 000 board feet At a market price of $10 per thous and, that makes a total of $13,000,000 to $20,004,000. The other products of the forest are tan bark, ascara, polei"! piling, cord wood, pulp wood, etc.. easily brings the total for the forest products up to $40,000,000. Of this vast amount probably not far from $30,600,000 went to pay the various workers In the woods and mills of the state. Then add to this their wages deriv ed from the manufacture of finished products within the state, whlh has been estimated to be $5,000,000, and we have a total of $35,000,000 In workmen's wages for one year. What other Industry of the state can make such a shewing without one dollar's expense to the common wealth? This great wealth of-timber Is an lnherltane from the age, 'und this as sociation stands for "the protection, conservation and economic harvesting of It. It Is conservatively estimated that In this state an amount f timber eiual to twice the mill put Is each year destroyed by fire, except possibly the year 1907. What doosithis mean to our people, our manuul workers especially? Nothing more nor less than a dead loss of $70,000,000 a year, enough to build and equip 20,000 homes for average famtlls. Is It not time that we took steps to avoid this appalling loss; to protect this most valuable resource? The work that lies before us now is one of pure, loyal patriotism. Wi want to leave to the future citizens of this 'great state as unimpaired an heritage as the redman left us. We desire to see Oregon avoid the creation of such barren wastes as are too frequently seen In the wanton de- T I REIULE C I Over Twenty-three Years Ago Baby had Severe Attack Years Later Grandfather Suffered Torments with the Disease Virulent Sores Developed from Knees to Toes.

Pretty little blue-eyed Dorothy Woods, 6 years old, was saved from death in her burning home yesterday morning by tho bravery of Owen He gan, u neighbor, aged 70, who risked his life to Buve the child, says the Portland Oregonian. The little girl lived with her mother, at 576 Borth wlck street, In a smoll framo cottage. Shortly after o'clock, when Mrs. Woods had gone to church, the child started a fire in the kitchen stove and dropped a burning match on the mat ting-covered floor. The matting caught fire .and In a few moments the dwelling was wropped In flames. ' Began, who lives next to the Woods cottage, at 677 Borthwlck street, heard the girl's screams and broke down the front door of the blazing dwelling. The child was surrounded by flames In the kitchen and her res cuer dashed through a blazing cur tain to the single door of the kitchen took the frightened girl In his arms and carried her to safety. The fire department, when sum moned, could do nothing except save tho surrounding buildings and tho cottage was destroyed, leaving Mrs. Woods destitute. Neighbors gave her assistance and will probably raise money for her benefit. The building belonged to J. Sunskl, who carried a small amount of insurance.
