North End © BY PETER P,. CARNEY Have you ever stop; to think how this nation would fare if there were no forests—no wood to supply the thou- sund and one necessities of domestic and industrial life? The American public, blessed with an inheritance of vast natural resources, His always been prodigal of its wealth. The rey wey of rich soil, copious water supply, and minerals and ber in abundance, has resulted in an attitude of in- difference to the possibility of their exhaustion. There is always a day of reckoning, however, and this is particularly true in regard to our timber resources. Three-fifths of the original timber supply in the United States is gone. There is now consumed annually more than 51 billion board feet of material of sawtimber size, and nearly five billion feet is destroyed by fire, insects, ete. Our depleted forests are growing less than one-quarter of this total amount. Not only are the remaining virgin forests |being cut heavily, but we are using yp the second wth jand small material on which depends 6ur future su In all, the requirements of our population are close to board feet per capita. The answer to the forestry problem is not to use less wood, but to w more-—to put our idle acres to work producing trees. The crux of the problem Jies in pre- venting forest fires. During the past five years there have been 160,000 forest fires, 80 per cent of which could have been prevented. These fires destroyed 56,488,000 acres. Last year forest fires devastated an arta larger than New England. The annual loss for five years has been more than 85,000,000. Gov- ernors of the various states are being interested in the move- ment to prevent forest fires, and by getting the sports- men’s associations to pay strict attention to the situation and to have the school teachers: keep the situation before | their pupils it is hoped that the loss can be cut down each year. The purpose of Forest Protection Week as outlined by President Harding was to make provision for a plentiful supply of timber; to protect the forested watersheds from |which flow streanis supplying cities and farms with water; |to keep green and beautiful the forest-covered lands which serve as playgrounds for the nation, and to bring before |the American people the serious and unhappy effects of the 1 Present unnecessary waste by forest fires, to the end that thru their individual and collective efforts the forest re- sources of our country may be saved from destruction. Every good citizen should know what forests mean to his country, to his state, and to his very home; and that every fire that burns in the forests is a detriment to the progress of civilization. All boys and girls should have instilled in, their minds the untold damage that may result from care- lessness with fire in the woods. In destroying the forests | we are not only damaging the present, but are literally burn- ing up the future. en the timber is gre the streams will up and there will be no fishing 6r hunting. That is sofhething that every one should remember. Conservation should be the watchword of all.
