PENNSYLVANIA'S TREE PLANTERS 



Water companies, owners of mining 

 properties, and clubs of sportsmen in 

 Pennsylvania planted more than 1,200,000 

 young forest trees on their holdings dur- 

 ing the spring of 1922, according to an an- 

 nouncement made by Major R. Y. Stuart, 

 the state's chief forester. During the last 

 eight years the same groups have set 

 out about 5,217,000 seedlings. 



Last S'pring, the mining companies' plant- 

 ings exceeded those of water companies 

 and outing clubs by a wide margin. The 

 former planted 840,000 young trees to pro- 

 vide a future timber supply for the opcra-

CAMP FIRE PERMITS REQUUED 



Federal permits to build camp ores are 

 now required within the Nationa. Forests 

 of the Pacific Coast States, an.ounces 

 the Forest Service of the United States 

 Department of Agriculture, These permits 

 are free and may be secured froii all 

 forest officers and other authorized jgen- 

 cies. Serious forest fire;s and unfavorable 

 weather conditions have caused govern- 

 ment officials to take this step as a 

 matter of precaution. 



Five hundred men are now fighting un- 

 controlled fires in the Rainier, Wenatchec 

 and Snoqualmie National Forests of 

 Washington. The Herman Creek fire in 

 Oregon now covers 3,000 acres and is 

 burning close to the Columbia River high- 

 way. In spite of the cflForts of 165 fire- 

 fighters, the conflagration has destroyed 

 valuable timber and a sawmill; it now 

 threatens a Forest Service ranger sta- 

 tion. 



High winds and low humidity, say dis- 

 patches, have caused the fires to leap re- 

 peatedly into the tops of trees and jump 

 fire-line after fire-line as if they did not 

 exist. Fire lookouts on their mountain 

 peak observation stations have been in- 

 effective for many days because of the 

 dense blanket of smoke that hides the 

 forests. The seriousness of the situa- 

 tion, say forest officers, can be gau.ged by 

 the fact that Governor Hart of Wash- 

 ington recently issued an appeal to all 

 persons engaged in logging throughout 

 the state to suspend operations until rain 

 comes. He. also urged tourists and others 

 to limit all fires to those of urgent neces- 

 sity, and to extinguish every smouldering 

 ember before leaving camp. 



MICHIGAN PAYS THE PIPER 



Commenting on forest destruction by fire. 

 District Forester George H. Cecil, of Port-; 

 land, Oregon, cites the situation in which^ 

 Michigan now finds herself. From a state 

 whose forest wealth was considered inex- 

 haustible she is reduced largely to a pro- 

 ducer of fuel wood and other minor for-Jj 

 est products all because of indifferejicC 

 to fires, wasteful cutting and lack of re- 

 forestation. In other words, Michigan is^ 

 now paying the piper for twenty-five years
