There are two big questions up to llic pe pie oi tt;u

The war, as war. to all intents and purjx ses i- over
this country is concerned, but the burdens which we have b

out every day. No one in America, however, is starving I
and no one will starve to death if his need- are made know

Were the aid asked for adult- the appeal might not be
strong, but the money is asked in order that the lives of inf:
children may be saved, children who were in no way responsi

REFORESTRATION A VITAL QUESTION.
uai hi
A very few generations hence and the world will practically i liP'"!-! ,arii
be without forests, unless there shall be something done very soon installed for the c
to reforest the places which have been depleted, stripped of the worthy matron
trees which once covered them. P. S. Lovejoy, who is a member; Worthy patron
of the University of Michigan forestry faculty, recently contributed conuctressv"
an article relating to the disappearing trees which at one time Associate condu
covered vast areas of Northern Michigan. t the very a mmence Mter.

poorer, instead of richer, from year to year, producing less and Pianist Madge
less of value. This third of Michigan takes in 10,000,000 acres gyivla Johnson 11
or so, the most part of it being in the northern part of the lower Esther; Florence I
peninsula, the rest in the upper peninsula. "The bulk of these hank ; rts Trowbridge, K

jt,0O0,000 acres each of non-productive land.
With this vast amount of waste land, capable oi leinc re
planted with forest trees adapted t' the soil, Mr. Lovejoy urges m jUl'r of 1
that for the sake of the future of the country, reforesting should for the si
be commenced at once. A very important commodity obtained called a n

At the present rate of consumption the old virgin sawlog timber matter gon

Of course, not all the cut over land of the country is value- Rive
less. Much may be, and some is, converted into valuable land pt "lis
agricultural purposes, but the increasing scarcity of timber is awak ere
ening attention to the future needs of the whole country and con- amo
gress will be urged to take action looking to a future forestry pro- .
