SPORTS AFIELD Ry TED NESTING Insects and disease destroy at ipast half again as much timber every year as do forest fires. Great quantities of time, effort and money are spent to combat forest fires, but the massive dam age inflicted by insects and di sease is grossly overlooked. This estimate of damage by the little forest killers includes only saw timber killed in epi demic areas. It does' not include the small trees of future forests that are killed, or the crippling and sickening of other trees, or the lost wildlife habitat or the damage to watersheds and to scenic qualities. In fact, the Ameri can Forestry Association declares that the total is three times the loss by forest fires! Because of the Sfrruce bafk beetle, forests in some of the best big-game country in Colorado are dead. In this one epidemic, 4 bil lion board feet of timber were de stroyed. That’s enough to build 400,000 five-room houses. When processed, that volume of timber would have a market value of 2200 million. That’s what happened in Colo rado. Maybe it’s far from where you live. Perhaps you don’t fish and hunt there, so why should you get excited? Because right now there isn’t a forest area in North America that’s safe from insects and disease. They are enemies of every outdoorsraan in the nation. They’re a potential threat to game and fish resources and to essential natural wildlife environment, right in your hunt ing and fishing territory. Here, according to an article in Sports Afield magazine by Arthur Carhart, are some clues on how much damage the tree killers have caused: From 1910 to 1920 the spruce budworm destroyed timber in New England, Canada and Min nesota that would have supplied enough pulp wood to keep U. S. newspapers in newsprint for 25 years. The oak wilt is loose right now in the forests of the Mid west and Atlantic Coast states. The pine bark beetle tore through forests of California, killing all trees on the Laguna Recreational Area; it blasted the Black Hills forests a few years ago. The gypsy moth, in 1952 alone, de foliated trees on 1% million acres of hardwood forests in New Eng land. The chestnut blight has prac tically wiped out that tree species. The white pine blister rust has spread across the continent. A fungus is attacking pine seedlings in southern forests. What should you do about it? You might try to impress your state and federal senators and representatives that they’re fall ing short in their part of the bat tle against the bugs. CHANCE MAKE MONEY every week mailing postcards.
