Arbor Day Notes.

: Wood, and not gold, is the basis of
national wealth.
Trees shelter animals and homes from
the winds of winter.
Trees furnish material for a great va
riety of useful things.
"The tree is the father of the rain
and the mother of the fountain"
Trees improve the climate by shelter
ing the ground so that it is warmer in
winter and cooler in summer.
Children can inspire the tree and
shrub adornment of churchyards and
public squares.
Children should plant trees along the
highways if such work is not done by
older people.
"The wealth, beauty, fertility and
h~ealthfulness of the country largely de-
pend upon the conservation of our for
ests and the planting of trees"
Gas the leaves Of trees are said to
absorb all noxious qualities of the air
and to breathe forth a purer atmosphere,
so it seems as if they drew from us all
sordid and angry passions and breathed
forth peace and philanthropy"
When it is desirable to sow seeds
rather than to transplant, they should
be placed in fertile and we'll drained
land, in places sheltered from cold or
hot winds and drought. Seeds of trees
should be gathered as soon as fallen. If
the season is dry, they must be watered
and tended after being planted.

Waste Timber Lands.

There are in Minnesota nearly s, OOO,-
900 acres of waste land, from which the
trees have been cut, and on which no
taxes will eve be paid. These lands are
reverting to the state for nonpayment
Of taxes as fast as the lumbermen can
get rid of them. Active steps are being
taken by members of the coming state
legislature and others interested toward
the outlining Of a plan by which the
state shall gradually reforest these mil
lions of acres and hold the lands as a
public property to be numbered as occa-
sion may require and the state may di-
rect. It is claimed that millions Of dol
lars can be earned by this course, and.
that the numbering industry in Mime
sofa can be continued indefinitely and
almost uninterruptedly.
These new lands, if forested at once,
will be ready for the ak by the time
the present forests are gone, if the
young trees on the present timbered
lands are preserved and not ruined by
the process of cutting those now large
enough to make q board: In Europe
the forested acres earn from 81 cents to
several dollars per acre per year.

Cutting of Christina. Trees.

The recent protest of j. Sterling Nor
ton Of Nebraska against the cutting of
Christmas trees is warmly commended
in that section. In his protest he said:'
'The trees selected for slaughter on
this anniversary are always the straight
est and most symmetrical. There were
last year more than 20, 600, 900 of
Christmas trees cut down and put on
the market. The absurdity of celebrat-
ing the birth Of the Saviour Of the world
by a wanton waste and extravaganza
which jeopardize the welfare of mil
lions of human beings yet unborn is OBJ
vious to every thinking man."
