the tide receded at daybreak.
Few people have ever been caught

TO PRESERVE

AN IMPORTANT MATTER.
Unleae the Wheleaale Oeetruetion I
Stepped, a Woea Famine la
Sure to Result.
Can it be possible that an Ore
gon cannery company can prevent
a cannery company from another
state from entering this field? If
so, it is high time the people of
the Willamette valley encouraged
the establishment of independent
canneries. There is money in fruit
raising, and there is more money in
the industry if the fruit-raisers of
the Willamette valley, are not solely
dependent upon a trust for a mar
ket for their product It U not a
sign of progress wnen a trust can
dictate where canneries shall be lo
cated in this valley, and arbitrarily
fix the price of fruit at such a low
figure that there is an enormous
profit for it and discouragement for
the gtowers. The Willamette val
ley can raise the finest fruit in the
world, and ii the people would take
the proper ateps and financially
back independent canneries, the
valley would fairly boom. It is cer
tainly up to the people. They can,
if they become a little active, throt
tle the trust and make this a more
inviting field to homeseekers.

Among all of those servants plac
ed at the dfcposal of mankind bv
Nature, none are more useful thau
are the forests. The rivers and
streams are controlled and regulat
ed by them; climate and rainfall
are equalized; wood, lumber and
fuel supplied; floods, avalanches
and soil erosion prevented; the
winds moderated; and the devasta
tion of fertile tracts of country check
ed. Iudeed, the past experience.of
the human race has positively dem
onstrated that were it not for the
forests the most feriile and prosper
ous countries would soon be trans
formed into desert wastes, uufit for
human habitation.
Before the forests of Lebanon
were destroyed Palastine supported
in affluance teu million people. The
mountains have long been denud
ed. Forbidding slopes, barren! and
ugly, rear their weird forms sharply
above dismal and desolate valleys.
Scarcely 400,000 people remain iu
all the region, and most of these are
in wretched, hopeless poverty.
Syria, once maintaining a multi
tude of prosperous towns and cities
Antioch having a population of
half a million is at present the
scene of irreparable ruin. Tne de
struction of Syria's forests began
2650 B. C, followed by the disap
pearance of her soil and the decay
of her industries, would aloue have
produced this effect. Babylon,
once capital of the world, is a heap.
Nineveh and Carthage, once the
seats of mighty civilization, and
abundantly equipped by generous
Nature for permanent life, are deso
late wastes. Man destroyed the
forests, and lands which once flow
ed with milk and honey were trans
formed into deserts
The destruative changes occas
ioned by the agency of man upon
the flanks of the Alps, the Apen
nines, the Pyrenees and other
mountain ranges in central and
southern Europe, and the progress
of physical deterioration have be
come so rapid that, in some localities,
a single generation has witnessed the
beginning and the end of the melan
choly revolution-
The forest question involves the
two great questions ot wood and
water. Wood is a prime necessity.
Our population is increasing rapid
ly, while our wood supply is more
rapidly diminishing. We are con
suming wood three or four times as
fast as our forests are producing it.
Unless radical changes are soon
made in American methods of for
estry, a wood famine will assuredly
eusue. Forest cover on monatala
and hilltops is indispensibleinhold
ing back rain water, and maintain
ing equable stream flow. Denuded
hillsides mean an alteration of de
structive floods and droughts.
Friends of the forest should exert
themselves and assist in securing the
needed legislation for the preserva
tion of our forests. The people must
be aroused and informed, and must
make their will known to their rep
resentatives. United, earnest effort
will secure this legislation. The
American Forestry Association ia
striving, as never be lore, to bring
the question home to every citizen of
the United States, for it is indeed
national question.
