Put lumber on the Free List,

Boston Post:-Ex-Goy. English OF
Connecticut, who is reported to be
worth sS55,o00,0CO, has been largely inter-
ested in the lumber business for many
wears. He was asked if he favored the
placing Of lumber on the free list.
saMost assuredly do" was his reply.
Maine is stripped Of all but her coarse
lumber, and New York stateis denuded
Of It's hard wood supply. Michigan IS
the only.state from which we can Oh
tain a supplyof building woods The
South has the woods, TO be sure. In
Arkansas, notably, there Is a great sup
ply, but it costs more to get it up here
than it would to get Il from Canada.
Our policy Of protecting il this instance
has worked to the destruction OF our
great forests. The country suffers ma
terially in consequence. Unless lumber
Is nut on the free list what few woods
we have left will be sacrificed and then
!. we j shall be at the mercy OF the Cana
dams. 1t is bit the part OF wisdom te

A PROCLAMATION

NY
The planting and cultivation Of trees
in a prairie country is a subject of so
great Importance as. not to be easily
over estimated. 1t concerns not only
the comfort, but the material interests
of the people, and appeals as well to the
desire for pecuniary gain as to love of
the beautiful and ornamental. 1t is a
subject in which all are alike interested
and upon which all may act.
The success Of arboriculture in this
Territory has already been demonstrate
ed, and there is no doubt that both indi-
vidual and generalestS would be great
ly benefited by the setting apart and
cultivation of u part of every farm in
the Territory rs a permanent plantation
for the raising of timber. With this
supplemented by proper planting for
ornament along the streets and around
the residences, school houses and pub
lie grounds in both town and country,
the outlay would be returned ten-fold
in the increase Of values and the added
beauties OF farms and homes. While
laying the foundations Of what is des-
tined to be a great anG populous COM
monwealth we should not reject the
help which nature offers to make it al
