FOREST LAND OWNERSHIP
m
PhK' Six

The question of forest land ownership and manage
ment is of peculiar concern to citizens of Oregon.
Our future prosperity depends, to no small degree,
on proper use of thisvclass of property.
Forest Land area of Oregon is now slightly over
25 million acres, of which nearly 60 percent is in
federal ownership, the balance being in state and
private ownership.
This constitutes 43 per cent of our entire land area.
Some land now in forest should and will eventually
be put to other use, but doubtless not less than 8J, 2
million acres of state and private lands and a larger
amount of federal holdings, or 37 per cent of our
land area, should be permanently devoted to pro
duction of forest crops.
The portion of the above which has been deforested
throug!-. fire and by reason of lumber operations is
over 5 1 million acres, nearly equally divided be
tween federal government and state and private
owners. It is these denuded areas, largely unfit for
other than forest growing and which are increasing
by some 200.000 acres yearly, that bring home
most strikingly need for taking thought as to our
future timber supplies.
True forest lands, irrespective of ownership, will
be a state liability or asset, depending upon wheth
er or not they are kept producing a valuable forest
crop. It is the crop and not the land which in this
instance has value and to which we must look for
public revenue.
In view of the state's interest in land ownership,
the following are worthy of careful consideration.
Excerpts from an Annual Report of
Chief Forester of United States
"Unstable forest land ownership is today the great
est single obstacle to the rapid spread of timber
growing throughout the country. It is represented
by the land speculator, or the lumber company
which intends to dispose of its holdings when cut
over, or the State without a policy of permanent
forestry for its timberlands. or the State, county, or
town which is anxious to have tax-reverted lands
chiefly valuable for timber growing put back on the
assessor's rolls. If all or most of the 470.000,000
acres of forest land in the continental United States
close to one-fourth the entire land area were in
the hands of owners whose future returns rested on
actual use of the land, the Nation's forest problem
would be much nearer solution. ' '
There would still be necessary, of course, the prose
cution of research on a large scale and over a long
period to learn the best' methods of growing tim
ber and of utilizing what the forest produces just
as extensive and continued agricultural research is
necessary for better and more profiting farming.
In the case of timber growing, research must nn
swer many riddles which now perplex and hold
back the landowner. There would be necessary a
large amount of educational work to make known
the best methods and induce those who would prof
it by using them to undertake them. There would
be necessary public facilitation of timber growing
thrnugh the removal of obstacles and economic,
handicaps, such as the risk of fire damage and of
higher taxes than this form of land use can sun
port. These are all essentials of an adequate pub
lic program of forestry. But so lorj as those who
hold title to forest land are not interested in making
or keeping it usable for timber growing, a funda
mental obstacle remains."
A fair system of forest taxation, greater public co
operation in protection matters, and extension of
markets for wood products will go far toward the
desired stability in forest land ownership. Unfair
taxation and public indifference to the needs of a
great industry can only exaggerate a present day
far from satisfactory situation.
