SOMETHING ABOUT FORESTS.
Mr.. Austin Cary Tells a Few Features oil
the Study.

Mr.. Austin Cary, whose work the past
few years in forestry in this State, and
studies abroad have placed him high
in the rank of experts in this line, was
in the city, Saturday. on business and
to visit his friends. He left for Bruins
wick on the afternoon train where he
will visit friends in Brunswick
Mr.. Cary has recently been at work
in the study of Maine forests, and has
prepared much material on the sub
ject.
Mr.. Cary is very enthusiastic over
his work, and being of a naturally
scientific inclination. gets genuine
pleasure from it,.
In speaking of his travels abroad,
last summer, he is full of praise for
the German forest managers, who are,
as Mr.. Cary puts it, as thoroughly
versed in their profession, as one of our
practising physicians is in his. Dur
ing his stay in Europe, on which he
looks back with great pleasure, Mr.
Cary met number of Englishmen in
bavaria, who were finishing up a
course of a two years course of study
under the direction of German fores-
tiers. The preparatory institution for
Englishmen who are to take charge of
the great work in India is situated near
London. But, for England, as well as
all other countries, Germany is the
place of all others to gain the best
knowledge of scientific forestry.
The work of the English in India is
most profitable to them, and likewise
to the Indian princes, who have recog-
nized the profit to their estates derived
from hiring expert men to look after
the forests of whose products the well
known teak wood is the most valuable,
both as ship building material and for
domestic purposes of various kinds
The French, too, Mr.. Cary says, have
fine forestry system The oak and
beech trees of Normandy are famous
for their size and perfection.
All the German states, Austria, Bo-
den and Bavaria, pay careful atten-
ton to the matter. There is in Ger
many great demand for poles for the
hop growing. These poles are sur piled
by young trees from neighboring for
ests,and Trimmings of the forests Refuse
lumber of various kindsis also made up
into poles. There is also great demand
for wood material for use in the vine
yards CT France, the Rhine and else
where.
! The study of forestry is an import
ant one, and there is an increasing
room for it's application in this coun-
try, whose lumber interests are SO
vital.

Economists and pledged the government

Capt. Gen. Weyler responded, congrat-
ulated the delegation upon the outburst
of sincerity evidenced by the reports of

mists on the attitude they had taken.
Senior Salagas in his rejoinder said that
throughout the many years of political ex-
perience he had never before dealt with
a representative of the home govern
ment. He believed Capt. Gen, Weyler
was eminently fitted to solve the exist
ing political problems of the colony, and
speaking on behalf of the autonomsts he
could say they were highly satisfied with
the captain generals impartiality and
policy.
These important declarations by the au-

Weyler are much commented upon in Ha-
