Directions: Use this passage from a letter on conservation, written by President Theodore Roosevelt, and your knowledge of U.S.

history to answer questions 1 through 3.
In the East, the states are now painfully, and at great expense, endeavoring to undo the effects of their former short-sighted policy in throwing away their forest lands. Congress has before it bills to establish by purchase great forest reserves in the White mountains and the southern Appalachians, and the only argument against the bills is that of their great expense. New York and Pennsylvania are now, late in the day, endeavoring themselves to protect the forests which guard the headwaters
of their streams. Michigan and Wisconsin have already had their good timber stripped from their forests by the great lumber companies. But the western states, far more fortunate than their eastern sisters in this regard, can now reserve their forests for the good of all their citizens, without expense, if they choose to show the requisite foresight.
—President Theodore Roosevelt, in a private letter in 1907

President Theodore Roosevelt spoke of how forests in the Western United States were still in good condition because they had not been destroyed by timber companies.
