Millions of trees are being planted
by the railroads Of the country in or
der to provide ties. The steady
denudation of our forests, coupled
with the increased demand for timber
of all kinds, will make forestry one
of the best paying industries of the
future. Young man, plant trees-do it
now. The required investment is not
large and the dividends undoubtedly
will be immense.-DeLand News.
