De FUSIAK SPRINGS, FLA.
The Proposed Forestry CoHgress-Th,
Value of Timer Cultivation.
[coRREsPoNDKSoE OF THE APPEAL I


De FUsIAK SPRINes, September We
feel assured that the proposed Southern
Forestry Congress, to b5 held 10 Decem.
Der, at De Funiak SPRINGS, Fla, will meet
with the hearty support of the APPEAL, q
journal which has done go much to de-
velop Southern industries and to benefit
Southern people.
The disastrous fl )ods of the past few
years, which have caused SO much loes
and suffering to Cincinnati and terrible
destruction 10 the Mississippi Valley, can
be traced directly 20 the rapid deforestiDg
of woodlsI ds The alarming prospect of
the now fertile mississippi Valley becom-
ing barren desert is by no means pleas
ant thought, and yet this is its future un-
iess sJmething is done TO stop forestry de-
struction.
The nations of the old world declined
with the destruction OF their woodl Inds,
and Germany to grow in strength and
power when she made tree planting her
most important government work. Her
bravest iegions who gained military glory
and fame in the French war came from
wooded regions which two centuries ago
were bleak, barren deserts. Let us, there
/ fore, profit by the lessons of history, and
] save in time our fair land from the fate of
Egypt.
As a question OF profit, leaving out
| climatic considerations, tree culture pays,
as seen by the following ex rsct:
Hinton ..Va) Herald: Some months age
Mr. Thomas of New York purchased, of II :"
Strsle walnut tree standing on the land oi
Straley, in Med we'll county. The price paid for
the tree in the woods W $3.50. 1t was cut II to
four logs sixteen feet each, and brought to
Prince Station for shipment. When laid down
at the station the who cost OF the tree to Mr..
Thomas was $500. On Saturday the four logs
were sold to Villains i Co. of New York fol
$500.
Col. W. D. Chipley of Pensacola, gen.
tleman who has devoted much time and
thought to the subject OF safe investment:
for minors, was asked by a party few
days ago this question: "How can best
invest $500 for my infant daughter ?" TIC
which Col. Chipley replied: "Piant ten
acres in nuts, five acres each in pecans
and English walnuts." What better in.
vestment can anxious parents make fol-
their children than following the above
advice. Mother Nature, more honest
| than man, will not default on judicious
| investment thus planted in her bc-om.
Families in your State who desire to make
| Investments for their children cannot dc
better than to inve It in old, woIn-out, neg.
lecte lands and plant them in walnute
the timber of which is in demand at ex
orbitant pficss.
We hope to meet large delegation from
your State ard Mississippi at the Southern
Forestry Congress, in December. Parties
intere sted should address the Hon. G. @
Banfle, secretary, De Funiak Springs

The hest evidence that can be given
our readers to show that our amusement

selected as stand for the greatest, grand

The show referred to is the one whcse

just what we say it is-the very best.
The Sells show, in point of magnitude
and equipment, cannot be SO described il
