made an excellent showing if the fact
that the team was in a badly crippled

WHAT FORESTRY HAS DONE:
AN INTERESTING REVIEW,

Many people in this country think
That forestry had never been tried
until the government began to prac-
tice it upon the national forests. Yet
forestry is practiced by every %civiliz-
ed country in the world except China
and Turkey. II gets results which
caa be got in no other way, and
which are necessary to the general
welfare.
What forestry has done abroad is
the strongest proof of what it can
accomplish here. Tho remarkable
success of forest management in the
civilized countries Of Europe and
Asia is the most forciblc argument
which can be brought in support Of
wise forest use in The United States.
The more advanced and progressive
countries ARRIVE first and 90 far

things. Indeed. we might almost
take forestry as a yarlstick with
which to measure the height Of a civ
ilization. On the one hand, the ma

widely and sySt?m9tically would be
found to be the: most enlightened ma
tons. On the othcv .hand, when we

SO far consistently followed Il let

been depending upon foreign sup
