FOREsTATION ABROAD.

While we Of Vermont and other
States are making a gratifying begin
ming in the matter OF forestry. II Is
worthy Of note that additional coun-
tries abroad are also becoming arous-
ed to the need the conservation of
timber growth as countries have be-
fore.
A suggestion by Spanish manufac-
. turers that Spain plant forests for
pulpwood and follow Italys example
by planting quick growing species
has been reported TO this government
by Council-Generai Ndgely. of Bar
celona. Spain is waking to the neces-
sty OF growing her own timber. Near
ly all civilized countries are moving
in that direction because It IS coming
to be understood that countries which
do not grow their own timber must
go without 1t for a few decades.
1t has been customary to cite Spain
and China as examples of tho distress
sing results which follow forest des-
truction. Spain Is as largo as Pennsyl-
vania, Delaware Maryland. West Nir-
ginia, and North Carolina, but Its for
ests have only three-fourths the ex-
tent OF West Virg1nia's ALONE. and
much Of them are scrub fhickets OF q
