sOLICITOUS FOR THE FORESTS.
Indiana HOrticulturists Will Seek Leg.
islative Enactment.

When the Indiana Society of Horticulture
lists met at New Amsterdam last May a
great deal Of interest was shown in a pa
per read by Attorney j. II. Blair, of this
city. Mr.. Blair discussed the timbered Sec
tons of the State, and advanced the theory
that the water supply of the streams was
yearly growing less because of the havoc
made in the forests by the woodman's Ak.
The society took up the subject for discus
sion, and finally passed resolutions deplor-
ing the reckless sacrifice of forest trees and
recommending that the Legislature take up
the question. The following committee was
appointed to prepare a suitable bill to be
introduced In the next General Assembly:
Gen. John Coburn, c. S. Denny and j. II.
Blair, of Indianapolis; Professor j. Troop,
Of Lafayette; Addison Coffin, of Amo; NJ.
v. Hanger, of Evansville: j. b. Burris, of
Cloverdale; w. w. Stevens, of Salem; W.
H. Ragan. of Greencastle. The committee
met yesterday at the Statehouse and ar
ranged for another meeting, when a bill
be prepared for the consideration of the
legislative body which convenes in Janu-
airy: Mr.. Blair, in discussing the questions,
THE influence that forest areas exert
upon climate and wateriow Is an important
feature; The influence which the forest has
upon climate and moisture Is of a local
character, and the local climate is of the
most Importance to us. The presence of
heavy timber retards the flow Of rainfall
and the water is absorbed by the soil and
slowly finds its way into small streams
which empty into larger streams. BY this
means the sudden rising of water courses
are averted. When the forests have been
removed the rainfall rushes down hillsides
and ravines, suddenly increasing the vol
ume of streams which continue with great
rapidity of current, carrying everything
with ii. This violent rushing of water car
ries away fertile loose soil and leaves the
surface no~nproductive. European countries
have for years been giving this subject at
tention and by practical experience have
demonstrated the truths / have cited. If
the present disregard for the future in the
telling of forest trees is permitted to con-
tinue, 1t will be but a short time until the
supply is exhausted"
