GOVERNOR YATES ON THE
OBSERVANCE OF ARBOR DAY

Gov. Yates has issued "a proclama-
ton designating Friday, April "a, as
Arbor day in this state. He says:
The forests of this country are of
great economic value. 1t is esti-
mated that the annual consumption
of wood is at least twice as great as
the annual growth. Aside, therefore,
from identifying the home surround
ings and the public grounds and high
ways, it is good public policy to in
crease the practical knowledge which
may lead in due time to u restoration
of the balance. For these reasons |
urge in an especial way that the
work of planting trees on the
grounds of schools of all grades be
continued, and that all teachers EN-
ployed by the state or any district
provide for suitable instruction in the
care of trees and their Importance.
In the celebration of Arbor day by
the schools and educational institu-
tons it would be also appropriate. al
though it is not especially enjoined
by our statute. to couple with study
of trees, lessons on the value of our
birds and the great Importance of
their protection. The young people
of Illinois cannot have too great an
appreciation of nature or too keen
a sense of the relation between her
many beauties and utilities.
