In prcKontinK a fcij'ch of articles pertaining' to Forest
Industry in the Klamath country, it is the purpoHe not only
to show need for care of raw material, its protection against
fire, insects and other enemies,' but likewise to point out
Borne of the peculiarities of timber as a crop and as an in
vestment, as well as public benefits resulting from existence
of foreBts. '
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.
