SPRtERVW THE FORESTS.

-15 of the most important questions
w which our national and slate
res have to deal, and yet one
is too generally neglected, is that
the preservation of our forest.
ndent of the fact that they add
to the wealth of the nation at the rate
d $700,000,000 annually or ten times
iwsm than the output of all our gold
r silver mines-which alone ought
isuuoure for them proper asre-the
icacnt conclusions reached by ad
eatl~c men, to the effect that they de
tdrnaans, to a peat extent, the climatic
ami the hymenic conditions of our

the preservation of our
tibered lands among the subjecta
tha should receive the early, constant
aml careful consideration of our legis
lstors
httona
It is estimated by experts who have
devoted much time and thought to the
bquiry that at least '0 per cent, of
the entire agricultural region of any
eountry should remain permanently
6 forests. Twenty years ago it was
amerted that the annual clearance of
woodland throughout the United States
amounted to 10,000,000 of acres, and
that at this rate individual owners
would ultimately be entirely stripped
of their holdings. But it is not only
the ax that is destructive to forests.
Browsing animals and fires are suite
as detrimental. To these injurious
sgencies must be added the enterprise
ag and conscienceless railroad cop
tactor, who annually destroys 30,0Q0,
00t vigorous young trees in his quest
Sor ties. Taking these and other ene
mies of our forests into :.ccount, it will
bsseen that but for the energetic ac
lia of our national and state govern
mants the terrible calimity of the en
he sweeping away of the natural cov
n of the soil woud be among the
ble events of tie future-a disas

Nor us this am reflight of the im
"m"on. It at qy seem to the super
fima' observer ti verge on the extray
apnt to talk of a possible timber fam
he in a coqrntry so new as ours, and
- that was si lately reclaimed from
he 'forest primeval;;" but it is an un
imiable fact that we are cutting down
wr trees far more rapidly than we are
jhnting them, sad although our in
hsitance of timber has been great,
smob a policy steadfastly adhered to in
he future can lead to but one result.
b bring about a better state of thing,
Sipublic sentiment oug
r be created, and business men and
brumere should be informed how in
fsly their prosperity is bound up
with the preservation of the wooded
lmd. They should be made to under
ramd that by the effect of the forests
em the water courses the entire naviga
tio., and much of the transportation,
gteem of the country is regulated.
assanfacturers are also largely de
ýsmdat for the water supply for their
ftories and mills on the wisdom that
pesects the timber lands where them
iaams take their rise and through
which they flow. No proO table mill
ig could be done where the water
wnrse was a torrent during one-fourth
dt the year and a dry bed for the re
mainder of the season.
d the year and a dry bed for the re
mainder of the season.
It is encouraging to note that the
mbject is now receviug practical con
s~srstion in many localities, and
esecially this state and in Pennsyl
iiam. The report of the New York
Isrrstry commission, presented to the
lggislature, contains many interesting
tile and valuable suggestions; while
s Agricultural society of Pennoyl
weials actively engaged in spreading
te fasts before the le. The estab
ment of "schools of forestry," in
ameordaace with th, plan that has
'wrked so admirably in Germany, is
einestly rdoommended, together with
der measures all tending to further
*s end in view. On one point all au
oi mties seem agreed-that it is un
wise to hand the timber resources of a
aountry over to private parties, leav
ag them independent of all govern
ment control. At one time this state
owned every acre of the Adirondack
region, but this noble domain was
given away with a recklessness that is
rearcely credible, and what it now
possesses it has gained through tax
ales, while its titles are thus of the
rmost precarious character, the land
speculators being engaged in a con
t struggle to procure a cancella
tian of the sale. The wholesale pur
chase of forest lands from individual
owners is urged by the commission, to
remedy this state of thing, and to
prevent the stock of timber in the
stale from being too largely depleted.
