FOREST CULTURE.
The Lyndonville Journal puts the whole
subject in a nutshell when it says:
Scientific forestry IN simply a species
OF farming with tho distinction that the
forester has to wait from 30 to 70 years
for tho maturing Of his crop instead Of
five or six months. A tract Of woodland
scientifically farmed IL capable Of yielding
n uniform crop each year, but, because
OF the time which must intervene between
the inauguration Of n system Of forestry
and the frst profits II Is perfectly proper
to ask the State to lend its aid in start
ing and promoting this new species OF
farming"
The incalculable BENEFITS 70 the State At
large to accrue. directly and indirectly,
from the pursuit Of this enlightened policy
or forest preservation and forest culture
Will doubtless be admitted by most men
who have given tho SUBJECT any thought

 Formerly a Pastor Here.
 The following letter from Rev. Frank A. Scofleld was read in the First Meth odlst church, Meriden, Sunday morning. The letter was written in the .Polyclinic hospital by Rev. Mr Scotield himself The letter follows:
 Polyclinic Hospital,
 East 34th St.. New York,
 March IS, 1904. Dear Brothers and Sisters.
 I am very glad to state that in the kind providence of our Heavenly Fath- CT, am improving fast and have every hope of being able to return home in a week or two more. A very severe in fiammation in my left eye, which for some days refused to yield to treatment, has caused me more apprehension and pain than the operation itself. But this inflammation by the surgeons skill and constant care has at last been greatly allayed and all danger to the sight has passed. The operation will be a perfect success and a great trouble from which IT have suffered many years has been radically removed. I thank you all very much for your kindly interest and pray CTS in my behalf.
 Very cordially yours, FRANK A. SC0FIELD.
