1t is well that the United States gov
eminent should look into the matter
of forest preservation in due time be-
fore it comes to the point reached by
Russia, when in 1896, on December %,
the record of Russian legislation was
enriched by the addition of a law which
provided that anyone caught cutting
down tree without proper authority
should be sent to Siberia for life. This
was forestry preservation with venge-
ance, but il was too radical even for
the Russians, and few years later the
law was repealed. The same year that
this law was enacted the government
lost about 2,oOO. 600 American money
on account of forest fires, the forest
revenues at that time amounting to
only $30o,ooo annually. These forest
fres did such damage that in one prov
ince in an area of about zoe, 600 acres
there was not a tree left fit for the pro-
duction of building timber.-Philadel-

for years reflection--all thickening
the haze of the late summer with the
dust of the roads. And Hillsborough
itself was black with people. The
shouts of excited men. the neighing
of horses, the believing of cattle, the
wailing of infants, the bowling of
vendors, the pressing crowd, had be-
gun TO sow the seed of misery in the
minds of those accustomed only TO
the peaceful quietude of the farm.
The staring eye, the palpitating heart,
the aching head, were successive
stages in the doom of many. The fair
had its floral hall carpeted with saw
dust and redolent of cedar, its dairy
house, its mechanics hall, sacred to
farming implements, it's long sheds
full of sheep and cattle, it's dining
hall, it's temporary booths of rough
lumber, it's half-mile track and
grand stand. Here voices of beast
and vendor mingled in a chorus of Gu
pidity and distress. In Floral hall Sol
Rollin was on exhibition. He gave
me cold nod, his lips set for tune
as yet inaudible. He was surveying
sundry examples of rustic art that
