CUTTING OF SMALL TIMBER A Court Opinion Denying Owner Right to Destroy Trees Where They Conserve Water, and Lessen Ravages of Floods In holding that the legislature has a constitutional right to pass laws regulating the cutting of timber on private lands, if the cutting is liable to be detrimental to the public welfare, the judges of the Maine supreme court handed down an opinion of great importance to the owners of forest land in that state, and of interest to land owners in all parts of the country. The opinion refers particularly to the cutting of small timber which should be left growing to give a forest cover which will conserve the water and lessen flood ravages and prevent or diminish soil erosion and consequent filling up of the rivers and lakes. The judges specifically state that regulations of that kind cannot be construed as the taking of private property for public use, and that the state need not pay for young growth which it may forbid the owner to cut. This was not a court decision, for no case was before the court for review, but was a formal opinion prepared at the request of the senate for the guidance of the legislature in the enactment of laws to regulate forests and protect the interests of the public. Similar questions have come up in other states and may be expected to come up in the future. In the proposition which the Maine forbid the owner to cut. This was not a court decision, for no case was before the court for review, but was a formal opinion prepared at the request of the senate for the guidance of the legislature in the enactment of laws to regulate forests and protect the interests of the public. Similar questions have come up in other states and may be expected to come up in the future. In the proposition which the Maine senate submitted to the judges for their opinion it was stipulated that a law should not be enacted which would interfere with clearing land for agricultural, mining or manufacturing purposes, or for building sites, or pleasure grounds. The purpose is to forbid the total stripping of forest land where a forest cover is necessary to prevent the wash of the soil, the lessening of flood ravages, and the mitigation of drought, and where the public good requires that such cover be preserved. In submitting their opinion the judges cited numerous examples of legislation restraining property holders from using their property in such a way as to endanger the public welfare. A man may not erect a dangerous building on his city lot because it would imperial or damage the property of others. For the same reason, a forest owner may be restrained from denuding his hillsides to such a degree as to send down upon the lands of his neighbor the soil wash to cover their meadows, choke their streams, and injure them in their rightful use and enjoyment of property. It was declared that there is nothing in the constitution of the United States or in that of the state of Maine prohibiting the enforcement of a forest law of that kind. Maine's greatest wealth is in its forests—directly or indirectly. In several ways it has been a pioneer in forest legislation and management. It is one of the few states—probably the only state—whose forests are nearly holding their own. Lumbering has gone on there for a long time, and every year there is something ready to cut. The folly of stripping land and leaving it defenseless against erosion is well understood in Maine, and the legislature has taken preliminary steps toward a law to compel unwilling forest land owners to leave enough small timber and brush on the ground to cover it.

Timber is one of the principal materials purchased by the railroads and its economical use is a subject of far reaching importance.
