How OUR FORESTS ARE JTsED Up

How OUR FoRKsTs ARE USED Up
Our forests are rapidly going while no
adequate provision il being made to re
plcnish them. The State of New York
has great park full of timber in the
northern wilderness, but annual fires are
making havoc in that region. The
great woods are probably losing more
than they gain from annual growth.
Wood is becoming scarce and inacces-
siblc every year. In many States the
forests on level ground have mostly dis
and only remain upon high
hills or mountains, which are not easily
accessible. The Monetary Times tells
low the forests disappear
To make shoe pegs enough for
American use consumes annually 100, ),
600 cords of timber, and to make our
ucifer matches, 100000 cubic feet of
the best pine are required every year
Lasts and boot trees takes 800. 900 cords
of birch, beech and maple, and the
handles of tools, 500 coo more. The
baking of our bricks consumes 2,OO0,-
900 cords of wood, or what would cover
with forest about $4,000 acres Of land.
Telegraph pole. already up represent
500, 600 trees. and their annual repair
consumes about 400, 900 more. III e
ties of our railroads consume annually
thirty years growth of $4,000 acres, and
to fence all our railroads would cost
$45, 600, 600, with yearly expenditure
of $15, 100000 for repairs.
In the northwest there has been a
very rapid destruction Of the forests.
and much solicitude is felt as to the fu-
ture source of the timber supply.
Straw lumber has been manufactured o
some extent in Kansas, and is said to
answer the purpose as we'll Straw
lumber may be the lumber of the fu-
ture. The refuse straw from the grain
producing States of the west will be
utilized. Instead of raising trees, the
land can be devoted to grain, which
may be sold, and the straw used for
lumber Coal for fuel and straw for
inside finishing may relieve the pres
sure on the forests and give them
chance to grow.

We should like to see the Midland
road built. 1t would open up spler-
did region, and perhaps in time, would
give us an Ocean Steamer line from
Beaufort. Gen. A. ID. Mclean, of
Harnett, advocates direct route as fol-
lows
IF the said company would conclude
TO build an air line from Goldsboro TO
Salisbury, it is in my judgment good
route, and the distance only 125 miles J;
passing through the counties of John
.ton, lIarnctt, Moore and Randolph
Ii is, lie my judgment, the most desir
able route to build a railroad now in
North Carolina. The counties of John
ston, Harnett and Moore have the finest
kind of yellow pine timber for lumber,
they have good cotton land also.
SO far as your city is concerned, it
would increase your cotton trade at least
1000 bales per annum. The above
named route would cross at or near
Smylie Falls, on the Cape Fear River,
which is the head of navigation for
steamboats, Oh said river The grading
of the road would not cost more than
$1,000 per mile and the people of Har-
nett and Moore will doubtless subscribe
a sufficient amount to grade the road.
This Midland road was recommended
by Gov. Swain (if my recollection is not
at faulD 50 or 40 years ago.
