You will be forced from this time on to go much further for your timber, and to cut it from places very in- accessible, and your logging costs are bound to increase, not gradually, but with a jump. The way in which the forests have been cut over, and the carelessness in regard to fire, which existed up to five years ago, have left waste many large districts which should have been useful to you for many years to come.

Competition Valueless The time has come when this cpies- tion should be taken up ard exam- ined carefully. In the woods there is no reason whatever for competi- tion, but as a matter of fact should only compete with each other in try- ing to get your logs out as cheaply as possible. This can be done more efficiently by co-operation. There is no reason why you should compete in the question of labor or provisions, but by getting together and planning your operations together, and plan- ning them with some idea of the pre- servation of the forests, and you can certainly have some great economics and economies which will preserve the forests over the greatest term of years.
