POSSIBLE TN CON-

 Now it is difficult to persuade the active pushing, hurrying American who wants to SOW to-day and reap to- morrow that he ought to provide for the future by sowing to-day in order that someone else may reap 50 years from now, and yet we must come to that in the matter of forestry if we would realize the best results and put the business on a solid basis. Gov Woodruff's suggestion that every town ship should have 100 acres of woodland where wood may be raised as a crop for the public benefit may seem wild or farfetched to the man who deals in rapidly rising Cor falling) values and who wants to realize, one way or the other, between sunrise and sunset. And yet the lesson of experience is with the Governor. We do not know but that it might be needful to increase the 100 acres to 200 or even more, but the prin- cple involved is everlastingly right. And here is the demonstrations in Europe to-day there are towns of con- siderable size which own wood lots which have been planted and replanted scientifically for years, which grow in value and improve with every year and which pay all the taxes and all the ex- penses of the towns which own them the people being relieved thereby of al such burden. Tn these lots old woods is cut off annually to sufficient extent to keep that which remains in health 1 full condition and to give room for the young trees to expand to their best adj vantage; wherever it is needfrl, new trees are set out and this replanting replaces the annual loss by cutting and every year new lot of wood natures | that can be taken out in advance and I sold at the market value, the proceeds, as has been said defraying all expenses of the towns, including the care of the wood lots, taxes and public improve nlents. It is entirely possible for many Connecticut towns to do the same thing to cultivate wood and keep it in good condition and in paying quantities, If a proper beginning is only made. And Il win not De needful to wait 59, nor 9 nor even 10, years for the first fruits oi such an investment, since standing timber in wood lots can be bought con venient to, many towns to-day whicf treated scientifically and judiciously could be made productive and re
 muiaertative immediately But thi
 thing must De done properly and then i
 is d sure success.
 This is apart from the general ques
 tion Of forestry preparation for tho
 sake of the sources of the streams an
