We had an interesting call yesterday
from Prof. HOugh, Of the United States
Agricultural Department at Washington,
who has charge Of the Forestry branch Of
that department, and who has been on an
extensive trip West in the interest Of his
specially. His mission was to examine
into the condition OF the Government
timber lands and to consult with State
authorities as to the best methods OF pre-.
venting the waste Of timber and the en-.
cOartgement Of Its growth in parts Of the
country where II is scarce. The Pro-
lessor knows all about timber, and
considers 1t q subject Of great
moment TO the future Of the
country, albeit II Is one to which the peo-
pie are as yet giving very little attention.
lie thinks the day is not distant when the
timber lands Of West Virginia will be con.
sidered the most valuable portion Of our
territory. lie says that the United States
has now less timber in proportion to liz
area than any country In The world. The
acreage Of timber to cleared land Is only
about twenty per cent, and thS per
cent Is rapidly diminishing. The rapid
settlement Of the west is fast exhAuSting
the pineries Of the lake regions and the
upper Mississippi region, and the uses Of
lumber are all the time increasing. Rail.
road construction creates an immense
drain on lumber for ties and for cars. Few
petsohs appreciate the vsstness Of the
railroad system Of the country as con.
ss!nmet OF wood. Hence he Gays that the
time is near at hand when we will awake
70 the fact that thedemand is greater than
NE supply, and then there will be de.
Slded appreciation In the value Of timber
