home before he went to Washington,
according to the Saturday Evening
Post.
I'm my opinion" said the learned
justice to the young men, lawyers
just starting out in life are prone to
put too much reliance on letters Of In
PRODUCTION. They go to new town
to settle down and take letters TO help
them along instead OF relying on their
own abilities, and not on the help
others can extend 10 them. | hear Of
young men taking a dozen or two let.
tiers into new places. Now, l do not
believe in that Why, to show you
how It is a matter Of principle with
me, l will inform you that / brought
but one letter Of introduction with me
when came to Detroit, only one"
The justice here paused and looked
around TO see what effect his words
had had. One young man piped up
and said:

Forestry in Japan.

Just at the time when this country
IS beginning to struggle with the pro-
blcm Of outstanding its forest rcsour-
ces, OF protecting its mountain slopes,
and OF improving the waterways, it is
interesting 10 know that the Japan
csc have successfully attacked the
problem. before the land suffered Sc
vcrcly from the evil effects following
dcforcstation. The farsightcd people
or Nippon have forcsccn the results
OF the destruction of their extensive
mountain Forests. and have safe
guarded themselves by placing all of
these under government control
Thc practice Of forestry has been
carried on in Japan for a longer time
than III any other country. For l.
2oo years the pcoHlc Of Japan have
been planting and growing forests,
with success that has been Il little
short Of marvellous. Under careful
management. the Japanese forests
yield very high financial returns.
This high yield is only made possible
by the close utilization Of every bit
OF the tree 50 that scarcely Il twi~ is
wasted, and by the improvement of
the growth Of their forests bv caro-
fully conducted thinnin" and tcndin+.
The woods are first thinncd at fine
age Of thirteen years, and then every
1--we years after that up to the time
OF the final harvest. ut 12O wears.
1t was the opening up Of the hith-
erto inaccessible mountain forests
that the Japanese government be-
came most intensely interested in
forestry. The mountains were still
government land, so all that was nee
essary to protect them was to place
proper restrictions on the sale and
cutting Of timber. This was effected
by declaring the forests on The stccn
slopes as reserved forests, in which
the only cutting should be done I'M
der government direction The for
csts on agricultural lands, not needed
FOR protection, are classcd as avail
able forests. and here the cutting is
not so carefully restricted.

Thus Japan has cifeclually pre-
vented the stripping Of her mountain
slopes before amy great damage has
been done. In some districts, where
the mountains are near the towns,
the steep slopes have already been
cleared, and this has resulted in
floods and the washing down Of tho
soil from the slopes on to the farm
lands. But these eases have been ex-
ceptlonal, and have merely served as
warning, which Japan has needed
before it was too late to prevent wide
spread destruction.
