IN FLORIDA
This State Leads in Plans
for the Redemption of
Timber Lands.
Special to The Journal

washington, Feb 25.-Florida is
the latest state to show an interest in
reforestation. The United States
forest service, at the request of the
Dunnellon Phosphate Company, has
just completed an examination of vast
areas of cut-oyer lands in Marion
and Citrus counties, TO determine the
feasibility of forest planting in this
section of the palmetto state.
While the greater portion of the
tract examined is we'll timbered,
there was found to be about 5000
acres of sandy brush and grass COW
cred land from which every pine has
been cut, so that natural reproduc-
ton is impossible, except on mar
row strip adjoining the forest. II
the lands are TO be used to the best
advantage il will be necessary to re-
stock this cut-Over area by artificial
means. The plans outline the most
extensive reforestation operations
ever begun in the south.
To Sow Long Leaf Pine.
After a careful study of conditions
it was decided that the sowing of
longleaf pine seed in spots would be
the most practicable method of ac-
compIishing this. The growing of
this species in nursery, folio
transplanting Of seedlings to the
field, is not considered feasible owing
to the long tap roots which are CHI
acteristic of the long leaf pine and
make transplanting dificult. Expert
mental planting of the camphor
tree, mesquite, and several species OF
eucalyptus is suggested, - since il is
thought TO be entirely practicable
from business standpoint. to grow
these trees in this region.
Danger of Fire.
1t is probable that the owners Of
the land Will prepare to take up work
along the lines recommended imme-
diately. The only thing which is
likely to threaten the success of
planting in this region is danger
from fires As is in the case in all
forest work. fire protection must be
provided In fact, if it were not for
the annual burning oFer much of the
cut-over land in Florida would now
be covered with fine second sro tn
of pine Even on lands where a few
old trees have been left from lum-
bering, the fires which are set an
nually to improve limited amount
or pasturage. prevent the growth OF
Seeding trees. While this burning
usually has for its object the i'm
proyement of grazing, it must be real
lied sooner or later that grazing and
timber growing can not be practiced
profitabiy on the same land II is
certain that this burning over does
not pay in the long run, even from
the standpoint of the owners of stock
since it steadily reduces the product
i've capacity of the soil.

THE HISTORY OF RELIGION.
The Fearful Nightmare Seen by St. John
Explained upon the Hypothesis of
Moving Pictures and a Mechanical
Show.
(By Susan j. Peck.)


John the revelator was shown in his
clarvoyant visions what was then the past,
the present, and the future and was told to
write of them. The message was sent
from him which is and which was and
which is to come, also from the seven
spirits which are before the throne and
the Jesus who is called 'the, faithful wit
ness, and the first begotten of the dead,
and the prince of the kings of the earth"
John saw moving pictures, produced in
part, by picture telegraphy and in part, by
other mechanism, Tin human hands,) and
a part of what he saw was real. The
beasts, dragons, horses etc, were pictures
relating, some of them, to the past, pres
ent or future, of persons on earth and some
of them to the dead. The seven noun
tains meaning Rome and the eight kings
meaning eight of Rome's rulers; while the
other pictures in which were crowns, re-
lated to Their countries and their rulers
and the pictures being understood only by
the dead many of whom were communicat-
ing by means of them. their significance
was explained to Jonn. The message sent
was to the effect that for that present time,
the churches were to be at peace; but
later, wars were ordered; and the picture
of the woman clothed with the sun related
to Mary the quen of Jews and the mother
of "the only begotten sonn," the twelve
stars representing the twelve tribes of
Israel and the moon under her feet, the
promise that her feet, the promise that
her followers should conquer the turks,
her flight into the wilderness meaning her
fight into Egypt, where she remained for
nearly three and one-half years, while the
picture of the dragon, the tail of which,
drew third part of the stars of heaven
which were cast unto the earth, repre-
sented death and the number of men to be
killed in war and through drunkenness,
