Sllmie.otu mill Hm Millions of Vr.t of tiumher Uncut The chief Are warden of Minnesota lu his uunual report says that the standing Umber lu the State It worth eatlly 100.0W,(XW, and It Is thlt prop erty which the lire warden system sveks to protect, according to the New York I'ot Tho State Itself owns 2,000.000 acres of luhd, a part of which Is forested and protected by the fire warden tyateiii. The State last No vember aold $0X1,000 worth of timber from Hi own laud, and hat In all re ceived $1,000,000 for Jutt the Umber sold from lands It received ai a gift from the United States. The State Hill continue for many years to sell timber of various kinds from these lauds, and Is on this particular account deeply Interested lu preventing dam age by forest fires. The local servlco In preventing and fighting fires, both forest and prairie, la rendered by the town supervisors, who are ex-ofllclo lire wardens, ond by those whom they summon to assist and In unorganized territory by Are wardens specially ap pointed. The service Is paid for In the first Instance by the count! e In which It Is rendered, and the State pays to the counties two-thirds of such ex pense. One of the richest pine timber re gions of the Northwest was the Sagi naw and Huron shore districts of Michigan. In 11193 there was cut in that district SCS.OOO.OOO feet of pine, but Uie supply of pine Umber had so diminished during the next ten years that In 1U03 only 63,000.000 feet wero cut. The number of feet of pine logs cut In Minnesota the senson of 1002 1113 was 2,000,000,000. The amount of pine lumber cut In Uie year 1113 by the mills In the districts of Duluth, Minneapolis, above Minneapolis and St. Croix was 2,200,02,000 feet A comparaUvely small amount of thlr may have been from the forests of Wisconsin. A liberal estimate places the remaining standing pine In Minne sota nt 28.000,000,000 feet "Any one can Judge for himself," says the war den, "therefore, how soon this forest capital will be exhausted and say whether It Is not time to begin a sys tem of reforestaUon by uUllzIng waste land In the production of pine Umber." In summing up bis report the war den says: "What forestry mans for Minnesota Is simply this: The re maining original pine timber will be cut In the next fifteen years. Some second-growth pine, If protected from fire, will then be cut from year to year, bnt It will not be as good as the original growth, and there will not be enough of It for home consumpUon. Lumber will be dearer and our great lumber Industry will decline. There are, however, fully three million acres of waste land In scattered localities, which If planted with pine would In time become normal forests, yielding forever a supply sufficient for our home need. Such forests would by tbelr growth perpetually yield a net annual revenue on the capital invest ed of 3 per cent compound Interest besides many Indirect benefits. On such waste sandy land It will take on an average about eighty years for a crop or pine trees to grow to mer chantable size. Individuals cannot wait so long for a crop and they will not engage In the business. The State, to whom time does not occur, must undertake the work by purchasing waste land and planting It with pine. The Minnesota forestry board Is ready to go to work, but until there Is some man In the legislature who wUl make forestry a specialty and flght for It with energy we shall not get the nec essary money for forestry."
