TREE PLANTING POLICY GIVEN (Go a tinned From Face One) for the Weyerhaeuser mill years before It located here and then paid a Just tribute to the men of last concern wnoee derision bad been to apead tire million dollars here In a major lumber operation, ney, general manager, who said la part: - SIMI'LK PROCESS . "The process la a simple en but It ha required a great deal of study and naturally la expeu site. Instead ot logging In the nid tasBioned way we nave start ed on a program to make a per- lietual timber operation In Kla math county. In order to achieve that result we conduct a selective logging program in which we do not cut youug tree but lea re loem growing on the land. "To Insure tbelr safely the tire hsssrd must be considered and we therefore create tire protectlos for the trees. This Is done by telling the dead atuff. laying out roads snd clearing sections to prevent urea from spreading to the young trees. DIFFERS FROM 1. 8. "Fslling the snags Is Probably tne greatest expense, for tnls must be done so thst they lie on the ground and do not etand. we do not burn the down atuff for we find that more protection Is rend ered by allowing nature to cheiai caliie and decay th down tim ber. The plan followed by th com pany la similar to the govern ment's process," Mr. Macartney stated, "but It differs In several respects. First, the government burns snd the company doea not. Secondly, tho government leavee urge trees occasionally and the company finds that leaving larger treea only cause those trees to become wlndshaken and they soon perish. As for sufficient seed, nature aeea that plenty ot seed is given from ordinary elsed treea and the big problem la to care tor the young treea and not let' them be destroyed by fire.' STATEMENT MADE Mr. Kimball spoke on th re forestation problem and express ed aa optimism that was admir able over the plan as It haa thus far progressed. To show to every one present thst a definite policy had been adopted, he read the of ficial atatement from the Weyer haeuser Timber company, which follows: 1 For many years forest growing was not considered a problem to be given serious con sideration. (a) There was aa abundance Of cheap raw material. (b) Flrea were numerous and little precaution taken to prevent them. It was not felt they could be prevented. 2 As the industry grew It made substantial Inroada on tho fotests ot New England and Penn sylvania and moved Into the lake states. Fire and insects were all of this time aiding In reducing the foreet area. The center ot pro duction, moved to the south and finally to the Pacific coast. It began to be apparent tnat forests were exhaustable and while exhaustion for the country was and is today a remote possi bility, this is not true for certain rcgiona. 3 la tne meantime timoer Be came a little more valuable and Its protection against loss through fire, insects and disease began to bo given consideration. 4 Generally speaking active steps looking to tire protection were the first aod most Important move on the part of timber own ers and states in the direction of continuing forest crops. 6 In the Klamath region now- ever the importance of fire aa a destructive agency soon had a serious competitor In the well known pine beetle, while in some other regions diseases and other fcrest Insects have been extreme ly destructive. C Protection against lire loss is now a well-established practice in the United States and particu larly in the West. Insects and disease epidemics are not so well handled as a rule, there being but few well organized agencies ac tively interested in this work. Forest Growing ot mgniy Profitable 1 In no section of the world has forest growing proven a high ly remunerative venture. Where most successfully practiced, as in Germany and France, it seldom yields a return ot over 3 to 4 per cent which, until recently would h&vo been considered rather a low rate In this country. 2 To arow forests successfully requires a large measure of pub lic cooperation In matters ot pro tection, taxation and use ot the products ot tho forest. 3 There are many orawnacas ts a forest Investment as compar ed with some other forms: (a) Length of time required to produce a crop. (b) Risk ot losing a crop be fore It becomes salable. (c) Uncertainty of . future value of forest products which has a direct bearing on possible profits. (i) Uncertainty of future public'pollcy toward forest land owners and possibilities ot ad verse legislation affecting an Investment well under way. 4 In view ot the drawbacks lo this kind of a venture maoy have and do hold forest growing should only be engaged la by Govern ment, Klale or municipality. There are In fact many reasons for public participation in the en New Method Cleaners "There's a Difference" SPRING SPECIAL $1.25 up &g $1.25 up (Pleats Extra) , The Original Beauty and Lustra Restored $1.00 MEN'S SUIT.

If such a course does not follow It means large additional areas removed from the tea rolls, an added army of pnblla employes, and th In' vltabl political management, or mismanagement, of a great bust' nes. 'e)erheiiaer limber Company IMaa 1 Resitting th important place ocupled by forest Industries In the community, the Weyer haeuser Timber company, before starting Ita Klamath Falls opera' tloa gave careful thought to what might Be done In the way ot Insuring a permanent euterprls. 1 It was realised that first ot all control ot fir la cut-over arena waa essential. Careful atudr was made of plans being carried out elsewhere and a system arriv ed at which Is a modification of that In vogue on lands of th Fruit Growers Company ot Susan ville. California. Their plan has Government Forest Service sanc tion. The plan of the Weyer haeuser Timber Company gives every promise ot success and w hope to carry It on at less cost thsa similar Intensive plana have proved poeilbl. 3 Prior to starting operation. studies of growth aod distribution of tree stses'la the areas soon to be logged were conducted. These proved that by cutting pine to a diameter limit ot about 17 Inches, and other species aa market per mits, some 40 tree per sere, 3 Inches In diameter and over would be left, and of course a large number of smaller tree. 4 It waa estimated that by leaving' aucb a number ot treea a substantial crop ot timber should be available after about 40 years. While thla new crop will not be aoythlng like as heavy as the present on, and the trees being small, the quality will be quite different, no donbt forty ear hence our Ideas as to what constitute usable material will hare been materially modified, as will perhaps too our methoda ot logging and manufacturing. 6 To glv some Idea ot rate of growth of pine In Klamath county we show the following, based no on studies made In the region: A pine 4 In. In diameter la 40 years become 9 In. la diameter: A pine S In. In diameter. In 40 years become IS In. la diameter; A pine IS In. In diameter. In 40 year becomes 17 In. in diameter; A pine 11 la. In diameter, in 40 years become JO In. la diameter; A pine IS in. In diameter, la 40 year become 13 In. In diameter. in volume the increase Is some what faster; but It must be admit ted It takes a long time to grow a valuable tree based on present day standards. . S Up to the present time some 6500 acre have been logged by the company. It Is felt that ex pectations la the way of material for a future erop as planned are present la thla area. Plans have been slightly modified since be ginning operations and probably will be further so aa need arise and betterment through change Is apparent. 7 The Company Is desirous of maintaining In Klamath County a contlnnona operation. To do this involves growing a second and succeeding crops ot timber. This project has already been started and waa under way at the outset of the operation so no time has been lost. Details of the program will be Improved npoa as work progresses and conditions change. It Is felt however that what has been started will Insure a second crop if we -are successful in pro tecting the yonng timber from fire and Insect attacks. The Com pany's plans largely apeak for themselves when onr logged over areas are Inspected, foresters, and others who have looked over tho work, express themselves as well pleaaed with progress ap to the preseat time. Public AM Dcpeadcd Cpoa 1 It must be remembered however that'public approval and cooperation are essential to any large or small reforestation pro ject. Without protection against fire no project can succeed, and without public aid and coopera tion protection Is well nigh Im possible.

He admonished everyone who had thought Klam ath to be a saw mill town where men had to make their money and move on that such Is not true, but that a permanent and lasting city is to continue to grow here with pine timber as the major resource.
