China affords the best illustration of a country paying the price for deliberate denudation of mountain forest coverings. Pine-killing bugs of the west do as thorough a scalping job in their own way. We don’t have to go to China to find instances of serious flood damage resulting from destruction or removal of treés on mountain watersheds—or for examples of the periodic drying up of water sources for irrigation from the same. cause. Vast areas of the west, without forests to ¢antrol mountain run-off, could come to be like China. SERIOUSNESS OUTLINED That would be more serious than the loss of timber for lumber. Man might find substitutes for wood, but he hasn’t invented anything to take the place of water in an arid land. the irrigated west runs into the billions; that in communities dependent upon agriculture into more Dillions. The importance to America of the western farm production has been brought home to all by the recent droughts in the Mid-wést. If our irrigation wére to fail because of forest destruction, it might be just too bad for everybody. CURBS REQUIRED A lot has been made of the@pecessity for fire prevention to maintain the watersheds. Little has been heard about insects that year in and year out kill more forest trees than fires do. Both must be curbed. On my recent forest inspection trip in Northeastern California I learned that barkbeetles are a primary contributing cause in the destructiveness of most forest fires. Standing trees killed by these bugs are tinder for spreading flames to living ones, prone logs are so many fuses. In fact, fire and bugs work neatly together in forest devastation, trees weakened by scorching being first to succumb to insect ate tack. z RAIN VALUES TOLD In the mountain fore8t rain pelting into trees is broken into spray. The ground is covered with a duff of pine needles, and a slow, deep penetration of moisture is the result. This finds its way valleyward in normal stream flow or seeps into underground basins from which it can be pumped. The forest reduced to snags by fires and beetles offers no such protection check. Water that might normally have been diverted from constantl yflowing streams, or lifted from regularly replenished reserviors for irrigation is wasted; floods rush down upon lowlands farms and the cities. » FEDERAL SUPPORE ASKED ‘Phe California State Chamber of Commerce, in asking for a Federal appropriation to develop fective means of forest insect control, stresses both the importance of lumbering and the indispensability of the mountain tree coverings for the conservation of water for agricultural, domestic and power development. purposes. The greatest item of all in California’s economy, it feels, is agriculture. California agriculture has unquestionably suffered from water shed . deterioration due to the twin agencies of destruction, fires and bugs, and a type of lumberman, fortunartely in the minority, who mows down trees without any regard for future forest regrowth hasn't helped any. That goes for other parts of the west as well. SOUTHLAND INTERESTED Southern California, whose lumber interests are nil, but whose limited forest watershed areas are vital to an intensive farm production, is bound to be especially interested in the agricultural -problem arising from the serious forest insect situation. The preservations of the mighty midcontinental watersheds of the Colorado river also has-a particular significance for this section and other parts of the Southwest. It is impossible,-of course, to set a value on publicly owned forests opened to the people of America for} recreational. purposes. The average national park visitor would probably say without hesitation that Uncle Sam’s gloriots western coniferous wonderlands are worth saving, whatever the cost.

Insects Endangering Growth in their bark—at from $4 to-$15 a tree. ANGLES ENCOUNTERED But one encounters a_ tangible monetary angle even when considering the intangible recreational value of forests in’ relation to insect damage. Private investments in resorts in timbered areas are enormous. Mountain cabins by the tens of thousands have been built by people whe like to enjoy their outings in the woods. Some are on sites leased in government tracts, others on privately owned wooded properEy ‘ Forests in all the nation’s western playgrounds and throughout the mountain. domain are suffering constant tree depletion because of destructive inseets, Very real values, pased on a heavy outlay of money, are involved in this tree killing. DANGERS FORESEEN Populous Southern California’s timiber areas are probably more’ intensively used for recreational purposes than any others in the west. They are menaced to a degree no one but the entomologist realizes. There has ‘been but one beetle outbreak comparable to those that have deciminated forests in other parts of the state—a localized holocaust among Coulter pines, following a fire in Palomar Mountain in San Diego county—but the bugs have not been idle. Increasing: numbers of ‘dead trees in pine stands everywhere attest their slow, relentless progress stopped them. Gne of these days, when natural conditions are “‘right™ for them, experts say, vast hosts will emerge from their breeding places and strike. Of the national parks, I visited only Lassen on my trip, and it is one of the less frequented ones. The country’s pet live volcano will one day be the only thing left to see if ‘barkbeetle destruction of pines is permitted to go on. The real forest tragedies however, are being enacted at Yosemite in California and the Yellowstone in Wyoming, visited annually by hundreds of thousands, I say the ruin in Yellowstone last spring, that in Yosemite some years ago. . GHOST FORESTS RECALLED Both vast parks are full of ghost forests. In the latter the once magnifcent lodgepole pine stand of Tenaya Basin had been completely destroyed by mourtain pliine beetles when I saw it. The slopes around the famous Mariposa Big Tree Grove wére white with the snags of sugar pine killed by the same satanic insect. Other fine forests, I’m told, have gone the same way since. The Yellowstone lodgepole areas have simply melted away before this bug’s attacks; dead trees outnumbered the living almost everywhere, it seemed. The Forestry Service report of 1933 states that 12,000,000 trees have been killed by beetles in a single year in this realm of the geysers. CONTROL APPRECIATED But for some measures of control by the Forestry and National Park services, it is certain, California’s national forests would be more ghost . like in many places than they are, So much for the forest damage being done by barkbeetles in the west. The same bugs, or their near relatives, are.steadily . destroying, lesser stands -of mature coniferous) trees in the North Central, Atlantic and Southern States. In the South, especially, knowledge developed from California research would be welcomed, for the vast southern pine belt, after generations of logging, is coming back. Dixie has worked out processes for making excellent newsprint paper pulp from its pines and won’t care to share its new growth with bugs: California should not lack for support in its new forest program.
