WEDNESDAY, AUGUST, i!, li)25
, A REFORESTATION PROGRAM
The announced policy f the iiong-Holl company,
which will "include rOseeding ;it a rate equal to the pro
gress of denudation and following within three years of
loKtfintf operations," would, If widely adopted, do more
to solve the timber problem of the future than any
reasonable plantings by individuals. The memorial idea
i worthy, out its value is chiefly that of propaganda.
It helps to awaken sentiment, stimulates understanding
of the necessity of conservation, and popularizes the
movement, liut for practical results it is indispensable
;hat the job shall be approached in a large way.
There are, for example, HI, 000,000 acres of land in
the country that have been stripped 'of their timber, yet
are regarded as fit only for arboriculture. More are
being added every year. In the impossible event that
every man, woman and child in the United states, in
cluding the babies, Were enlisted in an annual plant-a-tiee
campaign, it would take more than a century to do
the work, which is only a part of that which is required.
Meanwhile, consumption would have overtaken and pass
ed replanting. The solution lies in systemati.ation of
practical processes, by which many trees, not a 'few
shall be set out by men who understand the business and
have an interest in tending them. It is unnecessary to
ignore the esthetic value of trees, and probably inexpe
dient to do so since interest in it contributes its propor
tionate mite to the total, but the figures that control
run into millons and billions, and the individual mctrod
is slow.
A by-product of the announced program is interesting
and may prove fruitful. Experimentation with species
different from those which are now being cut will test
the suitability of the country for their growth and the
bearing of the principle of rotation in forestry. Nature
almost invariably has rotated her tree crops, though it
has. taken eons to do it, where we now propose to re
duce the term to years. But this is one of the minor
piloses of the larger enterprise, which proposes to Hit
f'-restation on a commercial basis, where it belongs.

Fire Hazard Causes Over

600 acres. Four of these are on the Cascade National
Forest ; Western Lumber Co. timber sale area, 8,300
acres; Signal Lumber Co., timber sale area, 800 acres;
Salt Creek watershed, 59,000 acres; Fall Creek and Win
beny Creek watersheds, 100,000 acres. The others are:
Deschutes National Forest, Crane Prairie region, 13,400
acres; Crater National Forest, Ashland Creek watershed,
12,160 acres; Utnatilla National Forest, Mills Creek
watershed, 22,000 acres.
In Washington there are tea clos-
