A bureau oi forestry was established iii the Philippines in April. 1900; with Captain George P. Ahsrh. Ninth Help on Staten infantry. in charge. The work of this bureau has convinced that Tait Commissmn oi the great impcr~ tapes of the timber lands as a ndtural source of wealth. and of the necessit of putting“ the Bureau on a substantial footing and handling these woodlands under scientific forest methods. Fur thermb’rc. it is evident that the cutting of timber under proper regulations will provide a large and increasing annual revenue to the government. it has been found necessary to permit the cutting of timber to supply the present pressing needs. but and has been taken at the same time that the cut- ting should be done in a manner that would work no injury to the future growth of the forests. These cousirb eraticn’s led the commission to cable to Washington for trained foresters (.o assist in putting the service on ‘a more satisfactory footing. Under the Spa‘tiiiih administration the timber lands or the Philippine Is- lands wore In charge of a Department of Forestry. which was organized in 1863. The personnel of' this depart- ment was made up of expert foresters rangers. clerks, draughtsmeh, etc. the higher oiiiclals being selected from the Spanish Corps of Engineers. After Captain Abel-ll was unpainted he received slithority to‘ employ a small number of foresters. runners and clerks; by September his adios force lied been doubled: in drder' to handle the work or the bureau properly. The call for activity on the'part or‘tli‘osc In charge of theBureau of Biometry was emphasised at once by‘the lumber famine in. Manila and other important towns owing to the destruction of buildings in the war and the increased demon for good dwelling houses re sultin from the large lullulk of Ameri cans. For these reasons the falling of trees and the Marketing of lumber bud to begin soon. ofter the establishment or the bin-.euu Captain Allern is in constant communication with the Divi sion of Forestry for assistance and co- operation with the Philippine Bureau of Forestry. The woik of that bureau was con- ilned for some months to the island of Luzon. but recently has been curried, to other points in the Archipelago The present plan of the human is to cover all the important forests as the development of the working force will permit One gloat drawback which is retarding the work of the bureau. Is the lack of capable and actIVe subor- dinate officials. it is difllcult to find men familiar with the forest condl tions and the. uses of the woods of the Philippines. who are entirely satisfac~ tory in‘ other respects. it is believed that the best means of securing a com , potent and emcisnt force is to employ new man and train them-on the ground as speedily as possible. In thlawork Measrs. Bruce and. Hamilton will be able to render valuable assistance. The Bureau was recently reorgan- lsed so as to consist of an cinder in charge. an inspector; a botanist, "a chief: clerk. and stenographer. a translator, a law cleric-a record clerk. ten assist~ ant fowstels and thirty rangers. iii the intention of the officer in charge to work up a forest service on the lines of the work carried on in the U. B.Ds partment of Agriculture, through its Divlaon of Forestry. 'l‘he wholesale destruction of timber will be stopped and the cutting will proceed under reg- Nations-looking to the future yields of the forests. The lire question will also receive close: attention. v ‘ Captain Mars in a recent report. calls attention to several obstacles in the way or immediate success in him: boring in the Philippine islands, the most earlouii drawbacks being luck or good roads and skilled labor. rarest reads and rival driveways are almost unknown, and present methods of lum- li’e‘rilig are slow and “passive.
