Forestry in Japan.
Just at the time when this country
is beginning to struggle with the pro
blem of husbanding its forest resour
ees, of protecting its mountain slopes,
and of improving the waterways, it is
interesting to know that the Japan
ese have successfully attacked the
problem, before the land suffered se
verely from the evil effects following
deforestation. The farsighted people
of Nippon have foreseen the results
of the destruction of their extensive
mountain forests, and have safe
guarded themselves b'y placing all of
these under government control.
The practice of forestry has been
carried on in Japan for a longer time
than in any other country. For 1,
200 years the people of Japan have
been planting and growing forests,
with a success that has been a little
short of marvelous. Under careful
management. the Japanese forests
yield very high financial returns.
This high yield is only made possible
by the close utilization of every bit
of the tree so that scarcely a twig is
wasted, and by the improvement of
the growth of their forests by care
fully conducted thinning and tending.
The woods are first thinned at the
age of thirteen years, and then every
five years after that up to the time
of the final harvest, at 120 years.
It was the opening up of the hith
erto inaccessible mountain forests
that the Japanese government be
came most intensely interested in
forestry. The mountains were still
government land, so all that was nec
essary to protect them was to place
proper restrictions on the sale and
cutting of timber. This was effected
by declaring the forests on the steep
slopes as reserved forests, in which
the only cutting should be done un
der government direction. The for
ests on agricultural lands, not needed
for protection, are classed as avail
able forests, and here the cuttitng is
been done. In suie district-, where
the mountains are near the town ,
the steep slopes have already been
cleared. and this has resulted In I
floods and the washing down of the
soil from the slopes on to tle farm
lands. But these cases have been ex
ceptional, and have merely served as
a warning. which Japai has heeded
before it was too late to prevent wide
spread dest ructi"on.
