INTERESTING FACTS ON FOREST
ASSEMBLED BY LOCAL RANGER
By F. F. WEHMETER,
Hepner Forest Ranger.
Oregon has 14 national forests,
divided into 65 ranger districts for
administration.
Oregon has approximatetly 396
billion feet of merchantable timber
or over one-fifth of the timber left
in the United States.
The annual requirement of the
people of the United States is 40
bilion feet.
It is estimated that it will need
117,000 people to harvest, over a 30
year period, the present mature
crop, and that the wealth circulat
ed through this cut will represent
275 million dollars per year.
Timber estimates for Morrow
county are 105,000 acres of pri
vately ' owned timber containing
one and one-half billion feet, and
121,995 - acres of national forest
containing nearly 600 million feet
of commercial timber.
Grant county has 366,500 acres of
private timber land containing four
billion, 390 million feet, and 1,358,
561 acres of national forest with 10
billion, 52 million feet.
Wheeler county has 190,000 acres
of privately owned timber land
with two billion, 470 million feet of
timber, and 155,548 acres of nation
al forest with one billion, 247 mil
lion feet
Oregon has one state forest of
77,000 acres.
In favorable locations Douglas
fir timber has brought $4.00 per
thousand feet stumpage, and yel
low pine has brought $8.00. White
pine in New England has sold for
over $20.00 stumpage. Thirty years
ago 10 was considered a fair price
for Douglas fir stumpage in Ore
gon. In 1926 Oregon cut approximate
ly four billion feet of timber with
a manufactured value of over 100
million dollars. Forty-seven thous
and people were employed, repre
senting 65 of the .state's indus
trial payroll.
Forest industries and standing
timber pay over one-third of the
taxes of this state.

Forest economists estimate that
Oregon forests can be placed on a
sustained yield basis and furnish
employment for 80,000 people with
a manufactured wealth of at least
one and one half times that of the
year 1925.
Water power is potentially one
of the greatest if not the greatest
for any state in the Union. This
water power depends upon the
care of the water sheds. They will
have to be kept in forest cover.
Recreation is another great re
source depending for its life on the
forests. It is estimated that three
million people visited the national
forests of Washington and Oregon
the past season. I believe the tour
ist crop netted Oregon something
like 20 million dollars last year.
Hunting and fishing depend
largely on the care of the forest
cover. No timber, means no water
and no game.
The grazing resources of the
state depend on the cooler forests
for their summer pasturage.
Approximately seven million dol
lars are spent In Oregon and Wash
ington for the Improvement of the
national forests and their adminis
tration. Thirty-five percent of all national
forest receipts are returned to the
counties of the state for road and
school purposes, each county re
ceiving a share according to the
area of national forest within the
county boundaries.
Few people realize that our Ore
gon Douglas fir rivals the Califor
nia sequoia or redwood for size.
Douglas fir have been known to
achieve a height of 380 feet and a
diameter of 17 feet at stump
height
Two million acres of Oregon's
timber producing land Is now a
waste with little or no present val
ue, the balance of her forests need
your protection. Fire Is the great
enemy of the forests and incident
ally and ultimately your pocket
book. Be sure you get that last
spark, whether it's in a camp fire,
pipe or cigarette, when traveling in
or near any forest land.

W.'CT.U. NOTES.
MART A. NOTSON. Reporter.
In Mexico, every week one hour
is devoted to teaching of temper
ance in the schools. The hour is
called the "anti-alcohol hour." The
method was initiated by the min
istry of industry, commerce and
labor. Evidently, the economic as
pects of the campaign are largely
the determining factors. Health,
morality and sobriety favor the pro
ductiveness of any people.
Dr. W. A. Evans, prominent Chi
cago physician who conducts a
health column in the Chicago Trib
une, in answering an inquiry, said
there is possibly some connection
between eating sugar and the de
sire for alcohol, but "just what it
is no one knows." He went on to
say:
"Men drink alcoholic beverages
because of desire and not because
of thirst. The urge is emotional
rather than physical. They are
somewhat out of mental balance.
People drink to fool themselves
that they may think they are kings
when they are slaves, rich when
they are poor, powerful when they
are weak, jolly when they are
downcast If you and your hus
band hav no desire for liquor It is
because you have mental balance,
are not given to wishful thinking,
have emotional poise, do not let
your feelings dethrone your judg
ment, have had proper training,
have character, and have had fa
vorable social environment; and it
is not because of the food you eat
or the water you drink."
Notwithstanding all the clamor
to "smash prohibition state by
state," forty-four state legislatures
which adjourned early In 1931 did
not repeal a line of prohibition en
forcement. These legislatures were
composed of approximately 8000
members, elected in 1930, when the
wet campaign was at its height in
which the wets sought to repeal or
modify prohibition. The wets in
troduced 200 wet bills in 32 states,
but in 12 states they could not find
a single member who would Intro
duce such a bill. The only wet
measures passed were in the form
of vague memorials to congress.
These came from seven of the 44
states in which legislatures were in
session, and were- mere gestures.
They accomplished nothing. In
seventeen states bills introduced -to
repeal prohibition laws were de
feated or killed In every instance.
This does not seem to bear out the
oft reiterated claim of the wets that
the majority of the people are fa
vorable to repeal or modification
(nullification). The legislatures
