The Forests Of Wisconsin.

Wisconsin contains 22,500. 900 acres
of pine forests, which gradually change
in character and decrease in product
iveness as it reaches northward. Lakes
become more common, swamps occupy
a considerable portion of the area.
The pine trees are smaller and more
scattered, although generally less in
termiXed with hardwood, and the
lumber they yield is of poorer quality
than further south.
The aggregate amount of standing
pine is $4,000, 100000 feet, The cut
for the year aggregated 2.087 900.
There were manufactured LOO, 030,-
600 shingles and 348, 301 900 laths. OF
this amount of cut lumber 4S5 ,552, 900
feet were manufactured along the
Mississippi river in Illinois. Iowa and
Missouri as far south as st. Louis.
The hardy woods of Wisconsin are ir-
regularly distributed through the state.
Four counties are estimated 10000, 600
cords. in addition to some timber of
commercial value. Valuable oak tim
Der exists in large quantities in some
counties, and hardwoods are found
distributed through all the southern
portion of the forest area of the state.
The cut of hard-woods for the year
was 117,04I. 900 feet, exclusive of
sc, 545, 900 slaves and 7.44S, 900 set of
headings.
The cedar swamps scattered through
the pine belt of the state cover an
area of some 1866. 600 acres, and are
estimated to contain 62.S00.000 posts.

addition to large quantities of tamarack
