. American forestry. Forests and forestry. TORRENT OF ST. MOREL Looking up the lower part of the stream, showing how it will henceforth be kept in a stone channel KEENE VALLEY IN THE ADIRONDACKS Our frontispiece of Keene Valley in the Adirondacks, from an admirable photograph by George Parker, shows the group of highest mountains, Mt. Marcy, The Gothics, Wolf-jaws; to the northwest, Mt. Porter and Table- top. Starting on Mt. Marcy, a large stream, known as John's Brook, flows down through the valley, emptying into the Au Sable River at the fore- ground. It is one of the most impor- tant watersheds in that region. The Rogers Company of Au Sable Falls is conducting a four-years' pulp job, tak- ing every tree down to three inches in size. Already the stream shows the effect of it. In addition to their work, the fires have run through this region, so that there is a strip for about two miles on either side of the brook nearly bare. The company has built a seven-mile road to bring down the pulp through presumably impassable country. 207.
