uated Around the Mediterranean.
Anyone who has travelled through
the comparatively treeiess countries
around the Mediterranean, such as
and large portions of Italy, must
fervently pray that our own country
may be preserved from so dismal
fate, says President Charles ". Eliot.
1t is not the loss Of the forests only
that is to be dreaded, but the loss OF
agricultural regions now fertile and
populous which may be Iesolated by
The floods that rush down from the
bare hills and mountains, bringing
with them vast quantities Of sand az
gravel to be spread over the lowlands.
Travelling a few years ago through
Tunisie, | came suddenly upon a fine
Roman bridge of stone over a wide,
bare, dry river bed. 1t stood some
thirty feet above the bed OF the river
and had once served the needs Of a
prosperous population. Marveling
at the height OF the bridge above the
ground. | asked the French station
master Ii the river ever rose to the
arches which carried the roadway of
the bridge. His answer testified to
the flooding capacity Of the river and
TO the strength of the bridge. He said,
II have been here four years, and
three times have seen the river run
ming over the parapets of that bridge.
That country was once one Of the
richest granaries of the Roman en-
pire. 1t now yields a scanty support
for sparse and semibarbarous popu-
lation." The whole region round
about is treeless. The care OF the ma
tional forests is provision for fu-
ture generations, for the permanenee
over vast areas of our country for the
great industries of agriculture and
mining upon which the prosperity of
the country ultimately depends. A
good forest administration would soon
support itself.
