PRESERVATION
OF THE FORESTS
OF WESTERN A. C.
Essay on the Appalachian
National Park,
BY MISS AGNES C. PATTON OF
. THE NORMAL AND COLLEGI
ATE INSTITUTE.
The following Is the graduating es
say read by MIm Agnes C. Patton of
Athevllle at the close of the Normal
and Collegiate Institute term last
week, her subject being "The Appa
lachian National Park"
The forest land of the United States
Is owned in three separate ways: First,
by the government, to which belong
the reserved and unreserved forests of
the public land states; second, by some
of the states; and third, by private
owners.
The private lands exceed in area
those owned by the government and
the states combined. Often the private
forests, as other individual property
are held for the returns they yield re
gardless of their age and growth. The
lands held by the government or the
states are under certain legal laws
which protect ihelr forests from denud
ation. -
These reserves occupy the poorer
sections on which agriculture or pas
turage does not pay. The cultivation
of the soli raises it to the highest use
to mankind. The land which cannot
be cultivated is that which Is purchas
ed for a reservation or national
park. The cost Is very small because
of the rough condition. Here Mother
Nature is given full sway, the forest
. ielng, as it were, her kingdom with an
undisturbed reign. The park reserves
:re pleasure resorts for many millions
of people who spend the greater part
.of their lives, in manufactories and re
jpuJiv tenement houses under a
smoky sky. The contact with nature
drives care away and they return home
refreshed and Invigorated, ready for
duty.
The growth of the practice of out-of-door
life throughout the world has been
rapidly educating humanity to the
value of natural scenery and to Its
Charm. The American people are be
ginning to see the evil effects of denud
ation of our beautiful forests. Unless
these forests me brought under gov
ernment laws the destruction will con
t'nue, r' The government has given millions ol
tiullars to the development of the Yel
lowstone park In the west and parks
for the north, but where is the park hi
ths east? The American people are em
phatically health and pleasure seekers.
Ths many millions living east of the
Mississippi river demumt and deserve
that their government should' make
some adequate provision whereby they
can successfully prosecute the search
fur health and pleasure. Fur more than
a Quarter of a century the people of
the south huve been discussing the
paramount advantages that would fol
low tlm establishment of u park in the
east. It would make permanent expert
care of our wonderful forests, the pres
ervation and Increase of gurnet he con
struction of imicailamlzcd rimcls to all
points of Interest. The park would In
fluence wealthy cltlsens to build their
homes In the section which would lend
to the upbuilding of all outlying towns
ml villages.
Travelers exclaim over the rmble
parks of the old world with their broad
spansp of the greenest of grass trim
med to a perfect sod. a veritable carpet
of velvet, ornamented by the mighty
oaks, enlivened by many herd of fat
deer, descendants no doubt from the
famous buck and doe on which bold
I? bin Hood displayed his uVcher skill.
" hy should beauty's charms belong
o:.ly to the old world?" Is there any
v, l!d reason why we should not have
l.i:ks equally as beautiful? liecldedly.
ni,, for there Is every reason why ours
should. In a few years, surpass In at
tl'U'tlons even the best of those across
tUo water.
Where Is any description of a Euro
pean park which contains such a
wealth of nature's treasures as the
Southern Appalachian range in West
ern t'arollna? A park within which Is
a mighty uplift like the Hlack moun
tains, the Smoky. Hoan, Toxaway or
any of (he hundred others from which
we could select to make the central at
traction of our park. Surely there Is
to be found no dashing streams of wa
ter so pure and sparkling as continu
ously nush from the riven rocks of
these beautiful mountuins. A few
years ano the deer, the turkey, the
pheasant and many other kind of gmne
were abundant here and will be again,
if allowed to dwell unmolested In this
their native habitat. All this has a
bountiful nature provided fur the peo
ple and If it be not enjoyed to the full,
the fault lies not at nature's door, but
wltn us who are permitting these de
lights to he squandered.
No nobleman of England ever owned
so grand a natural park as did once
the red man In Western Carolina. To
the Indian It Is lost forever, but our ef
fort and prayer shall be that It be pre
served to the white man. No other
portion of our country Is so rich In
flora as this part of the Appalachian
range. Here are mountains 6W) feet
In altitude, all clothed In virgin forests
to the summit, Intersected by deep
alleys, beautiful lakes, rlvs-rs. brook
ltts and water falls, As ore has said:
"It has not the snow clad altitudes of
ths Sierra Nevada but here Is a great
country of undulating table lands and
mighty mountain ranges whose toll Is
' - as productive as the prairies of Illinois.
Hers are peaks where Vulcan might
forge his thunderbolts, and where the
gods of Olympus might sit in council
above the clouds. Here are fertile val
leys sleeping peacefully beneath the
glant cliffs of mountains that rise In
majestic grandeur above the storms,
watered by crystal streams that break
la everlasting melody fresh from the
granite of eternal hills; here Is a re
gion where winter lingers not, the
mountains swell with life at the breath
of early spring and clothe themselves
In garments of emerald leaf and many
tinted flowers; summer sunshine
wraps the earth in lustrous woodland,
changing to royal robes of autumn,
splendors of purple crimson and cloth
of gold; transparent waters of rivers
and creeks glide and dance and foam
over their rocky beds; above them as
as arch the arms of giants of the for
ests, on their banks the violet, the tiger-lily,
the ivy and the laurel breathe
perfume as sweet as the odors of the
'lilies of eternal peace.' "
The commercial value of the forests
of North Carolina is inestimable If
maintained. This Is the meeting of
the northern trees with the southern.
It is the home of the rhododendron.
Here are found trees from five to sev
en feet in diameter and 140 high. Is not
this a virgin forest? Should it not be
protected from the axeman's hand?
If the forests are allowed to be de
stroyed, then our beautiful mountains
will be left bare and soon become dry
and unattractive. The mountains of
Western Carolina are not noted for
their great altitudes and snow caps,
but for their abundant flora. The
Rocky mountains rise to great helghtB,
but In many places are entirely bar
ren, while those of the Appalachian
range are verdure clad to the very
summit.
With the denudation of the forests
the climate changes and becomes as
the climate of a desert. In the early
history of Palestine, the land of the
Bible, the country was very abundant
In flora; especially In early spring It Is
said to have been marvelously beauti
ful. In later years the forests were al
lowed to be destroyed and-' now in
many places it is almost barren! The
beauty was destroyed with the forests.
"The scenery of a country Is part not
only of Its material but of Its spiritual
heritage. It Is impossible to destroy the
work of God without taking a little of
God out of It." Deforested land land
particularly In a mountainous country,
Is the direct cause of destructive
tloods. The Interference and absorp
tion by the trees distributes and regu
lates the rainfall. In dry seasons the
trees protect and hold back the evapo
ration of the Innumerable and minute
tributaries to the springs, water
courses and rivers, thus regulating and
preserving the water supply, without
which regulation no region can long
remain profitable or attractive. The
forest acts us a source of national
health.
The climate of the Blue Ridge plat
eau Is superior to any country known
for Its health abroad. The geographi
cal situation and the geological forma
tion are peculiarly adapted for a health
resort and Is preferred by many to the
famous climate of southern France,
Switzerland and the Rhine valley. Ma
laria is unknown. The germs of tuber
culosis cannot live in the mountain air
purified with the odors of the balsam
and the pine. What country o:in be
compared with this, "The Innd of the
Hky," "The Mecca of Health and Won
derland"? "Oh, proudly then the forest kings
Thelr.banners lift o'er vale and mount.
And cool and fresh the wild grass
springs,
Hy lovely path, by sylvan fount."
