E L U JIB E R'tOGUE" WEDNESDAY, MAY 27, 1925 PAGE TEN IRE INTEREST ' REFOHESTATiON Redwood District Now Cut ting, Annual Increase Only A great change has come over the attitude of practical lunmber mon toward forestry In the last few years, according to the Na tional Lumber Manufacturers' as sociation. The law of supply and, demand has begun to have its ef fect and lumbermen who formerly could.see .no business Incentive in reforestation are now taking it tip us a dollars and cents proposition. The great distance of the bulk oT the remaining heavy stand of lim ber from the main markets, and the increasing price of forest products are mainly responsible for this change of attitude. The, Western Vrtroctrv nnrt Pnnservflttnh Associa tion, which is a protective, organi zation of timber owners of the North Pacific region, has estab lished a forestry research and ad visory bureau which Ib now making studies of the" practicability of re forestation for many of its mem bers who own ; hundreds of thous ands, of acres of forest land "In the aggregate. This work has pro ceeded far enough to indicate that a large proportion of the present and future cut-over land in Wash ington and Oregon, especially west reforestation basis. About 80 per cent of the red wood lumber production of, Cali fornia is now coming . from the lands of timber owners who have definitely committed themselves to a policy of perpetual liimbering In volving continuous reforestation. It is now considered certain, that the redwood region need never cut less lumber than at present. . The Southern Pine association, the great organization of manufac turers of southern pine lumber, at Us recent annual meeting In New Orleans, declared most emphatis ally for reforestation on private lands wherever practicable,.. .About twenty-five leading southern "pine manufacturers have already begun, or are now planning, to put their operations on a perpetual basis. One of the greatest groups of lumber manufacturers In the United States Is that of the Weyerhaeusers, representing 50 to 60 different companies. They Imve. recently .or ganized a million dollar corpora tion for the sole purpose of dealing with the problem 'of reforestation. Thousands pf small timber owners, estate, owners and farmers are in troducing forest management.. More than a million acres- have been planted by private owners, to say nothing of the vastly larger areas that are naturally reforesting under systematic protection .from fires.

Kelly, lumber, company, and while here he inspect the company's mills ut Springfield and Wendllng. The Hades method has been In no by the company for the past two years, . It Is, stated, The . Uodos method of lumber cutting effects o saving of approximately 10 per cent In lumber, and increases the cut ot "clear'' lumber 25 to 40 per coin, it is stated. The logs are cut parallel with the bark, rather than with the heart, and thus the lumber next to the "bark Is' saved, while only thu heart,. Is tapered. This results In strnlghter grain, which makes lumber, of a. much higher grade, points out .Mr. Page. This system ii now In use by 500 mills in the south and west, says Mr. i, and the saving, "''which amounts to a large figure in conservation ot na tural resources.

' VIRTUES OF CALIFORNIA WHITE AND SUGAR PINES Natural advantages of noil, cli mate and altitude combine to make California AVhlto Pine trees the larg est of the species. (Plnns ponder osa). California Sugar Pino (Plnas Lanibe'rtiana) ,1s the largest ot hll pfnes. Trees are found In tho Cali fornia district measuring 2.10 feet high and 12 feet In diameter. From J to 6 logs, 16 feet In length, usual ly produce 1000 board foot of lum ber, while this amount Is often ob tained from even one or two logs. These big pine logs yield a large percentage of upper grade lumber, an average y-leld being: California White Pino, No. 2 Shop and-bolter, 35 46 . . , , California Sugar Pino, No. 2 Bhop; and. better, 4B0. MbrooVer, 'greater thicknesses, wider wicTths and a larger percent age of the desirable lengths come from , these California Pino .logs. Fully) 85 of the cut In No. 2 Shop and Better Is six-quarter and thick er. Random shipments front mills will average 12 Inches, with over 00 18 foot lengths. This permits tito te-worker to rip and cross-cut to the best advantage. Because the big California trees have little tap er, the lumber is straight-grained; ii nil the slow growth nnd long life of these species produce a fine, soft, uniform texture.. Cuttings from this soft-tcxtufod, straight-grained .lum ber hare the minimum' tendency to Warp, Clip or tw.M. , 100 billion feet ot California White Pino and Hugur Pine timber now stahds Hi the Virgin forests of Timberleague Schedufe ; May 31 ' " Lamm's at Modoc Point: Pelican Bay at Pelican City. . ; ' , " , June 7 Tennant at Tennant.

Ottlcials ot the White Pine lumber company, ntumetuhlod to witness tho unloading ot n log-cur. upon which was pluecd Ihe patented atako In vented by H. O. M. Leishmun o( this city. ,, . . , - , The divlr Is culled hy tho In ventor, n combination Ktuko mid chain. It permits of thu tripping of the binding chain nnd the stake with one action, allowing the entire load of logs to roll from the car with out thu customary hazardous work of cutting the wooden stakes ordln urlly used ou log-cnrs. In eliminating tho dnngcr from unloading log-curs, uurt in speeding up (he tiuloadlng process to the ut tnoHt, this device c:n be greatly ap preciated by the peopln of this north western region, where accldi-nts at tendant to the . unloading , of log cars are nil too common. , Mr. Lolshnmn claims for J ho sisko that it will more than pay tor It self in luinbeMilrtho during a period of elRhieon months.
