IRRIGATION NEEDS FORESTS
Question of Absorbing Interest to People of California—Sources of Water Must Be Protected
Lewis E. Aubury, state mineralogist of California, writing upon the needs of western irrigation, and the value of the national forests in that connection, says: While the subject of irrigation has at times been of absorbing interest to the people of California, they have given little thought to the sources of water supply; which lack of interest, in view of the necessity for protection of these sources, reminds me very much of a friend of mine who recently purchased an automobile. He was so proud of his new acquisition that he invited a few of his friends for a spin. All went well for a while. Suddenly the machine came to a stop, and believing something had gone wrong with the running gear, he jumped out, wrench in hand, to seek the cause of the stoppage. First he turned a crank, then he tightened a bolt. He went under the machine, and over the machine, and all around the machine. He screwed and unscrewed, opened valves and closed them, but all to no avail—the blamed thing would not budge. After expending consider-
First he turned a crank, then he tightened a bolt. He went under the machine, and over the machine, and all around the machine. He screwed and unscrewed, opened valves and closed them, but all to no avail—the blamed thing would not budge. After expending considerable time in efforts to discover the cause of the difficulty, it suddenly occurred to him: to examine the gasoline tank, when to his astonishment and consternation, he found it empty.
So with our friends, the irrigationists. Unless they awaken in time to the fact that if they ignore the protection of the sources of their water supply, their ditches will be empty, they will, like my friend who owned the auto, suddenly discover that they have paid too little attention to the most essential requirement. An empty gasoline tank will not furnish power to propel a motor, neither will empty ditches promote the growth of alfalfa.
It may be true that there are isolated cases where the management of the national forests works a hardship, not only on the stockraiser but on the miner; but I say, give the forest service a chance—it is yet young, and I believe, from my knowledge of the system of conducting these holdings, that any wrongs with which it may be afflicted will soon be remedied.
The complainants might well be asked which they would prefer—government supervision, or private ownership of the timber lands in the hands of a monopoly, and to be continually confronted with the sign, "Keep off the grass."
I see much trouble ahead in the not far distant future for the people of this state, and particularly the northern portion of California, unless the government, and for that matter, the state, provides means to properly control the monopolistic tendency to acquire not only our
I see much trouble ahead in the not far distant future for the people of this state, and particularly the northern portion of California, unless the government, and for that matter, the state, provides means to properly control the monopolistic tendency to acquire not only our timbered lands, but our water supply as well. The miner, agriculturist, horticulturist, and in fact, the people generally, will have their most valuable public utilities controlled by a few individuals.
Therefore, as a check to our monopolistic friends I can see no better method to adopt than strengthening national forests and lending our aid towards the present policy of the president.
GAME PRIVILEGES PAY THE TAXES
The Hampden forestry association which has been formed to acquire white pine and other timber tracts in Massachusetts and Connecticut and hold same for proper management of the timber and for enhancement of timber values, have solved for themselves the problem of taxation, which might otherwise stand in the way of their holding timber lands. They are leasing the privileges of hunting and fishing in their forest to men who will stock the preserves with game and pay a rental practically equal to the taxes.
This is but a small expense for the sportsmen, and it enables the forestry association to get the benefit of the growth of the timber. Inas-

Congress is continuing its hearing on the bill introduced by Representative Hepburn of Iowa, at the request of the National Civic Federation, to amend the Sherman antitrust law, and the Aldrich financial bill is still before the House. If Congress is successful in passing some legislation, this session, which will enable business men to proceed without violating the law, it will have worked wisely and well.
