OF TIMBER HERE
Ravages Of Pine Beetle On
New Survey Of Klamath.
Timber Amazing
The fact that a large amount of
timber In Klamath county Is not
being taxed was clearly Indicated by
the flrBt report yesterday by Edgar
and Cullison, timber cruisers who
are, working on a big contract let
by the county court for tho purpose
of checking up on 100,000 acres of
timber In the county.
The first report, presented the
county court yesterday afternoon,
on the 15,000 of the 100.000 acres
to be inspected, shows that there
is more, by 31 per cent, timber in
the county which Is not 'being taxed.
The present taxes are based on the
last cruise, nearly 15 years ago. The
total net gain of timber, over which
Is on ; the present taxation records
Is 00,285,000 feet. That gain Is
over approximately one-seventh of
the area to be covered by the cruise.
Should tho remaining area show an
increase In proportion, a total of
463,SS5,000 feet would be the
amount untaxed.
lU etltf Ravages Visible
A total of 24 sections have been
covered by the surveys thus far. In
21 of these over-runs were recorded.
giving the total gain as 66.2S5.000
feet. In three sections losses were
found exceeding the county's figures
for a total of 2,870,000 feet.
Despite a concentrated effort to
check the pine beetle In Klamath
timber, startling IH-efrecta were
found on the inspection. At present
the ravages of this bug are in evi
dence In 21 of the 24 sections cov-
fired fn the Edgar and Cfilllrfort re
port. A' total of 4.905. 01)0 foot of
beetle Killed yellow. pine is recorded,
which Is not included in" the total
estimates stated above, containing
only merchantable timber. , '
