WOOD SUPPLY
IN FOREST C AN
BE ESTIMATED
How much wood the forest lnd
of western Oregon and western
Washington produces each year, and
how much It Is capable of producing
under improved management, are
questions that can now be answered
dependably, according to Thornton
T. Munger, director of the Pacllic
northwest forest experiment station.
The station has Just completed the
growth phase of a detailed survey
of the region's forest resources and
is Issuing a report, prepared cnteny
by W. H. Meyer and P. A. Brlegleb,
on "Forest Growth in the Douglas
Fir Region."
The regional forest survey, part of
a nationwide project, locally under
the direction of H. J. Andrews, made
a study of the depletion of existing
forest resources by cutting, fires,
wind storms, and Insect epidemics.
As a result, accurate and complete
Information is now available for the
Douglas fir region as to the extent
of timber lands, the volumes of the
existing forest stanos. their ages,
density, productive capacity of the
lands, and the quantities of timber
that are being cut and otherwise
killed. Previous research had reveal
ed the rates at which Douglas fir
second growth stands of normal
density grow at varicia ages on sites
of varying qualities; and the rates
for hardwoods were .determined by
new studies, application of these
growth rates beuig made to uiven.
tory data. Results snow lust how
nearly, in this region the forest is
holduig its own against present in
roads, and indicate to what degree,
if present trends continue, It will
sustain the demands ol the future.
Current annual growth of the
Douglas fir and otner coniferous
lorests is found to do approximately
888 million cubic feet or XIOO million
board feet; that of the hardwoods
31 million cubic feet, or 72 million
board feet. Average annual depletion
from all causes during the decade
preceding 1933 is calculated as 8300
million board feet, including a 7800
million foot cut. Measured in board
feet, the current annual growth of
the coniferous stands is only about
28 percent of their average annual
depletion In that decade. Potential
annual coniferous growth, which
under Intensive forestry practice
could be obtained each year on the
lands suitable for tin.ber production,
is found to be about 3759 million cu
bic feet, or 8200 million board feet.
This means that in the Douglas
fir region an annual drain on the
forests such as that of the decade
preceding 1633 could be equalled by
annual growth If the over-mature
stands were replaced with growing
stands, forest lands now idle were
regenerated, and the density of the
existing second-growth stands were
brought nearer to normal.
Statistics of current annual growin
are tabulated separately for each of
11 geographic units Into which the
region was divided for survey pur
noses, and for each of the region's
38 western counties. Copies of this

YALE ADVANCES
STUDY OF WOOD
New Haven, Conn., Aug. 21. OP)
The Yale wood collections now con
tain more than 32.500 specimens,
representing 10,400 named species of
2,468 genera and 225 families as the
result of a worldwide study of woods
by the Yale forestry school. The
additions during the last two years
alone almost equal the total number
of specimens on hand a decade ago.
The most outstanding addition
made to the collections was obtain
ed as a result of a visit by Prof.
Samuel J. Record to Holland. This
consisted of a gift to Yale by the
Commercial Museum of the Colonial
institute at Amsterdam of 2.215
Javanese wood specimens collected
with herbarium materials by Koor
dprs. This material was studied for
more than 30 years by Dr. Jansson
ius of Holland, and the results of
his work were published in six vol
umes. Students at Yale can exam
ine the actual material described
in the text.
One of the Record's major pro
jects has been the study of the tim
bers of British Honduras. The work
was begun years ago in cooperation
with the forestry department of the
colony and with the field museum
on natural history. Record collab
orated in the authorship of a vol
ume on this subject, published this
year by the museum.
For the work in timber testing,
ft has bfen found advantaneotu to
use specimens of little known, but
potentially important tropical trees,
as the data thus obtained are con
tributions to science.
