by cedar and hemlock.
The new growth, he
commented, starts out with
between 5,000 and 10,000
seedlings per acre which is
reduced to about 100 trees when
they are mature.
While claims have been made
that clear cutting damages the
soil, Dr. Stanley Gessel, professor
of soils, told the group, definite
proof is lacking in most instances.
There is a great deal of work
being done on soils at universities,
and, computors are helping in
compiling the information so
more can be learned.
It has been the policy in many
areas to convert the forest soils to
agricultural soils, but, condili~ms
in Western Washington have made
this difficult, Gessel said.
The soil is the product ,')f the
environment, he said, and soils are
constantly changing.
You have to know what you
are talking abotlt before you can
claim clear culling damages soils,
and, in his opinion this
inlormation is not complete.
Each case could be different
because ol the ditlerent type of
soil, Dr. Gessel said.
Dr. David Wooldridge,
professor ot hydrology,
commented that about 95 per
cent ot the run ofl water in this
area comes trom forest lands.
Cutting the timber increases
the amount of run off, he said, as
the trees use up water which,
when they are gone, goes into the
streams.
Sedimentation in streams
c~,rnes largely from road building
in connection with logging
since the old growth has just
about reached its maturity and
cannot take advantage of tile
benefits of thinning as the second
growth can.
In answer to a question on the
effects of fertilization of forest
lands on the acquatic
environment, they commented
that the fertilization which gets
into the water increases fish
production because the food
supply ]s increased.
Dr. Gerald SchreudeI,
discussing the economic effects of
logging and recreation on forest
land, commented that how you
look at clear cuthng depends on
what side you are on.
The various methods of forest
land use put either timber or
recreation first, he said. One of
the problems is to put a value on
the use of the land for recreation.
Restrictions or a ban on clear
cutting would cause an economic
shift from the forest factor to the
recreation lector, he stated.
Dr. ]homes Waggner, who
also discussed the economic
implications of the clear cutting
question, stated that it clear
cutting was banned, there would
be a reduction in money
lrom timber harvesting, but, at the
same time an increase in
businesses dealing with recreation.
The economic benefits from
the use of forestland would
switch from the timber industry
to tile recreation industry, and,
would probably benefit different
people.
One factor to consider, he
said, would be whether or not the
amount of additional recreational
activity would make up for the
