' Public policies must to a very large degree determine whether or not timber crops are to be continuously, grown. It is therefore necessary that the public generally have understanding of the problems involved in the holding of timber and growing of new crops in order that just and equitable policies may be formulated. Once there is general .knowledge of these things, it is believed our western states, with their wonderful natural advantages, will become a desirable field for permanent industries dependent upon products of the forest. For many years we have looked upon forests as a natural resource which once removed were gone forever. This viewpoints a natural one in the light of what has hap pened in many of our older states. Today; however, we are beginning to realize that forests are a crop, and that given proper treatment new forests will replace those removed, so that timber supplies need never be exhausted. The thing which however seems difficult to realize is that it takes a long period to grow a new forest crop to a state of merchantability. In this forest crops differ from the ordinary crop requiring one year to mature, or at best only a comparatively few years. They differ, too, in that the yearly increase in volume of a forest the yearly layer of wood put on by each individual tree represents only a few hundred board feet of material, worth only a very small sum. ..In other words, the money value of the yearly forest growth represents a very small amount per acre, from which mast be paid taxes, fire protection, admin istration charges and other charges, which may be occa sioned by disease or other causes. Again, the forest owner cannot each year turn his yearly forest growth into money. He must wait a considerable number of years until the ' accumulated growth hac produced a merchantable tree. And during all of this time the yearly volume increase of the trees must of necessity be stored on the land in plain sight of the assessor, and also subject to ravages of the' elements, and disease. The crop at best can be harvested but once in a lifetime, and there are no returns until harvested. ' It is therefore not surprising that authorities agree that only land which will serve no other useful purpose may profitably be devoted to growing of timber crops. Almost any other use will give greater returns. In fact, the cost of carrying timber property over long periods is so great, as compared with possible realization, that all authorities agree there must be revision of our tax laws to meet the peculiar ities of a forest crop, and that in the absence of such revision private enterprise cannot be a factor in perpetuation of our timber supplies. ' . It is doubtless a fact, however, that our vast areas of land only suited to forest production should be kept pro ducing, or else they must become a burden upon other prop erty. Fortunately, even though their capacity for yearly production is small,, demands of this class of property upon the public treasury are light. Forest properties are seldom benefited by roads or schools, and they are protected against fire and other ene mies veiy largely at the expense of the owners. In the exploitation of forest crops it i3 necessary to construct mills, build railroads and use expensive machinery. All of these things are placed upon the tax roll, and in addition to the timber itself, share in the expense of state and local gov ernment. As a matter of fact, in addition to bearing a full share of the burden of taxation, forests contribute in a large degree to the general welfare of any community. Among the chief benefits which may be enumerated are recrea tional value, water conservation,. shelter for wild life and ameliorating effect upon climate. In considering the peculiarities of a forest crop and the. policies which must be put in effect if forest industry is to -continue best to serve the community, we must not overlook the fact that fire, insects and disease exact a yearly toll from our forests, and that public co-operation is'essential if we are successfully to combat these evils.
