A PREGNANT LESSON.
Much of SPANS and ItaIy's Woe Due
to the Destruction of Forests.
From the RILIshllra- Disnatch

to the Destruction of Forests.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Inasmuch as a proposition is pending in
Congress to reopen to settlement certain
forest reserva tons in the West, very per-
tinent comment is that made by Mr.
Charles Francis Adams on one of the
causes that have led TO the downfall of
Spain. 1t is a fact that this peninsula
once supported a population of 10000, 900 to
50000.000 and now holds a meager II, 10000
The main reason for that is stated by Mr..
Adams as follows:
During the last three years I have passed
much time In Europe, visiting, among 9TH
er countries, Spain. Italy Germany,
France and England. Whoever wishes to
study the effect of decreasing on a coun-
try and on Its people should by all means
visit Spain. Not only has the country
been ruined. but the very character of the
people has been changed by the wholesale
destruction of trees and the neglect of
their renewal. The rivers have become
mountain torrents, and large portions of
the country a rugged upland desert. The
same process Is to-day going on in Italy
The result on that country, as noticed by
me in visits ten years apart, is ,amentable.
The ancient forests are being wholly
stripped from the mountains, and. while
the rivers are converted into torrents. the
water is not held in the soil. In Germa-
ny, on the other hand, the forestry laws
are admirable. The result upon the coun-
try. climate and rainfall is apparent to the
most careless observer.
1t Is certainly timely to urge the ma
ton that it shall not permit itself TO copy
The Spanish example of decay in this or
In any other respect. The fact stated by
Mr. Adams has been corroboTated again
and again, to the effect that the renuda-
ton of the mountain slopes Of Spain and
erosion of its soil has reduced it to a con-
dition Of semi-arldily and lessened ats
power to support population until one
third of its ancient population is to-day in
dulging in bread riots
1t should be a shock to our. self-respect
TO note that of all the civilized ma tons we
most nearly copy the Spanish stupidity in
the waste of our forests. The source OF
our error is nearer than theirs Our
gTandfathers or grandfathers were
from the necessity of the case a tree
telling race; and with the custom inherited
fIom them We have gone on, destroying
forests where they still exist and failing
to restore the waste land that they have
been cut from. We should certainly sci
about showing ourselves to he wiser than
the nation whose decay is'now so evident
The forests of the Pacific slope should
b. inteliigently preserved the waste lands
of the Mississippi valley and Atlantic
coast should be reforested
There can be no better investment in a
double sense than to replant those por.
tions of the country that are practically
useless for farming with the trees that In
a generation or two would by their value
as timber repay the cost with interest.

powder mill superintendent, "are the two

a certain number of feet per second with

certain number of tons to the square

quired varies from 1900 to 1850 feet in a
