TO CHECK RAVAGES OF BLACK HILLS 
BEETLE. 
In the effort to check the pine bark beetle, 
which has been severely attacking the forest in 
parts of the Black Hills Forest Reserve, South 
Dakota, the Government is resorting to drastic 
measures. For the first time under the Forest 
Service, actual cutting, skidding and burning of 
debris have been carried on by Government em¬ 
ployees. Insect-infested timber, both standing 
and already felled under Service direction, is of¬ 
fered for sale. Large quantities of it can be 
secured at a fraction of the price charged for 
green wood. 
\ et this wood is just as good for lumber and 
railroad ties as green wood, and would ordinarily 
bring an equal price. Small sales have not been 
numerous enough to remove the infested timber; 
hence it is necessary to offer special induce¬ 
ments if the timber is to be saved. Timber not 
now accessible can be reached under extensive 
operations which would warrant the building of 
the necessary railroads. 
This action followed upon a study of the in¬ 
sect situation on the reserve by Dr. A. D. Hop¬ 
kins, in charge of forest insect investigations in 
the Bureau of Entomology, who recommended 
that the Service push the cutting and disposal 
of infested timber as the only means of prevent¬ 
ing the spread of the beetles through wider and 
wider areas. To broaden the market for the 
timber a clause in the agricultural appropriation 
bill, last winter, permitted the exportation of 
timber for two years beyond the borders of 
.South Dakota. But even this has not brought 
enough or large enough applications to take the 
timber which should be disposed of. Hitherto 
the Government has waited for a bidder before 
advertising for competitors. This procedure, 
through delay, threatens too serious a loss in the 
waste of trees now infested and in the spread of 
the beetles to fresh stands. The Forest Service 
will now take the initiative and advertise for bid¬ 
ders, in .order to draw attention to this timber, 
which is a menace to the future supply on the 
reserve. 
By securing prompt purchasers for the infested 
logs and standing trees, and destroying the in¬ 
sect broods by firing the bark and slash, it is 
hoped that the surrounding forests will' soon be 
saved from further insect attack. 
The timber attacked by the bark beetle has not 
lost its commercial value. There is no reason 
why the desired sales should not more than re¬ 
imburse the Government, besides utilizing a large 
amount of pine which would otherwise be wasted.
