RAILROAD TIES AND FORESTRY

To make forestry profitable is to
cause it to find favor with the land
owners of this country, and that seems
to be what the demand for railroad
ties will Don do.
The estimates made by ex-senator
Henderson Of Nebraska concerning
the number of ties used by railroads
in this country every year and the
amount Of money expended for them,
go to show very clearly that farmers
and other land owners will soon have
to begin The cultivation of timber trees
in order to supply this large annual de
mand.
He says that the railroads use about
ITO, 600, 900 ties every year, valued at
about $45, OOO, 900. Their purchases OF
other kinds of timber and lumber raise
the aggregate expenditure to about
500. OO0, 900 per annum.
This makes the market which must
be supplied, and since our forest area
has been greatly reduced. it is evident
that the time has com for land owners
to plant trees for the purpose of sup
plying the demand for ties and other
forms of timber. Oak and catalpa
