_Torcefu! Appenl for Forest Preservation & —carefu PULSE OF WESTERN PROGRESS | in the West. ! RESTORATION OF A FAMOUS LANDMARK ' Tapid City's Chiord and Timver in zation Plant—TFrait Wakhington—Sum- muary of Recent Happenings in | the Northwest, Mr. Artbur De Wint Foote, a civil engi- #oer v Boise City, 1dabo, writes to the New- York Tribune a strong appeal for better | protection of timber on He confirms what the public domain, i Bee has repeatedly shown, that the so-called protcction of west- | #rn timber lands §s & sham. “The pohicy of the general governmomt for protecting its forests, 1t policy it oan be called,” he writes, “has resulted in that it has never protected & troo from either fire or axe. [1s total work consists in a few laws against stealing which are more troublesome to the settler than to the timber thief. The peorle living in the arig region know that for every tree cut X ure destroyed by fire. They realiza how silly it is 1o punish & man far stealing & tew logs whiles fires are psrmittad to destroy thousands of them. They laugh ut the law, std & jury cavnot be found which will send & tunber thief to prisou 1t is tot oniy the Joss of the timber whict these people deplore; they fully appreciate that the destruction of the forests means the Tuin of their water supply be weil informed in regard 1o the physical Iaws governiug climate and rainfall and the -influence of prevailing winds, but they know, what the people of the east are beginning to | Jearn, that the forests regulate the flow of strenins. They know that from the forest covered bills come the perenu1al streamns that keep their aitches full aul the summer jon while from the DArren mountains come th the streams that tear away their dams and heodgutes in April and become streaks of dry sand and hot boulders in August, * * * ““The destruction of the forests comes, not from the great number of fires, but from the few that are never puc out. People are more #bout their fires in this region thau is generully supposed, but there are no rains until the autumn 1o DUt out those that ge started. Iu the Yellow stonc park, althouch thousanas of camp fires are made every year, the patrol have littie difficully in keep- ing down those carelossiy left to run. It 1s the fires coming in from the outside that make the trouble and are fast destroying the | wooded beauty of that wonderland, “This ‘Army of Patrols’ whict would be necessary 1o protect these forests is not & very formiaable one. The state of ldano | haus within its borders about 10,000,000 acres of forests and would require about 175 | putrols. To maintain this force should cost | the state about 60,000 per ennum. The | state has also about 00,000 ncres of graz- | iug lands, Onec-guurter of these, rent cents per acre, would pay the expense of forest putrol, and $40,000 more. The servi of these putrols would aiso be in uemand for watching and regulating the cotting of the forest products. There is no reasonable ob- | jection to cuttine much of the timber of bese forests. 1f properiy done it would be a marked bepetit The preservation of timber land is essen- | ti8l 10 the future welfare of the peopie and ( the success of irrigation. Mr. Foote argues that this can be best accomplished by ceding the public lund to the respective stutes and territories, but the cession should be condi- | tionea thut the forests be reserved to the | public for ali time. In no other way can bey be saved from the grasp of greedy wood butchers and the fires of campers. The ex- perichce of eastern states should be heeded in the west. It is & well established fact that the sudden floods which ravage the Ohio and Allegheny valleys periodically are lurgely due to the siripping of the mountains of timber. Without the shelter of timber winter snows melt rapidly and disastrous floods are the result. New York siate is moving before it 1s to0 lute to preserve the Adirondack forest from privatc ownersbip. Western states should emulate the examnie and avoid the disastrous consequences that will follow if the present indifference to for- t preservation continues. Cedar Shingle Industry in Washington. e manufacture of cedar shingles has be- oome one of the principal industries of What- com county, Washington. Two vears ago but very few shingles were manufactured; a daily output of something less than 100,000. Atthe present time tbere are twenty-five shingle mills in mctive operation the ounty, with an aggregate output of over 2,000,000 shingles per day. The more re- cently built mlis are using machivery of the 1atest model. One of these is situated on ew Whatcom's water front. aud is tue iargest and_best equipped stingle mill in he st This wili_alone bas a capacity of 400,000 shivgles per day, and has adjoining the mill three dry-kilus with a capacity of 2,000,000 shingles, which amount is mavu- factured every five days when the mill is Tunning at its greatest speed. Owing 10 the upiimited forest of giaut cedar pesr oy nd the superior grade of shingles made from the same, large quantities of svhich are shippea east, miuny lumbermen from the enstern stutes have been aitracted there, and without doubt many nvew mills will be oreoted in the mear °future.
