alton. The report is replete with use.
full information and valuable recon.
mendations and is profusely illus.
trated. It is one of the most interest.
ing volumes issued by any of the state
departments.
Heretofore far too little attention
has been bestowed upon the care and
preservation of our timber resources
and scientific reforestation. AS Com
missioner Andrews truly says there
are thousands of acres of land in
Minnesota that is not suitable for
agriculture but is we'll adapted for
the production of valuable timber.
The commissioner estimates the dam
age by forest fires in 1908 at 1878, 633
and including the destruction of CHS
holm, which was directly traceable to
forest fire, the loss mounts up to
over 100000 If proper precautions
had been taken ninety per cent of
these fires could have been prevented.
Commissioners Andrews makes an
earnest appeal for the adoption of the
proposed constitutional amendment,
which provides for tax of one-6f-
teenth of mill on each dollar of
taxable property, for reforestation
purposes.
The writer first appointed Gen. c..
G. Andrews chief fire warden in 1896
and he has retained the position ever
since-the title Of the office has been
changed to forest commissioner. The
Legislature of 1897 was so antagonistic
to Mr.. Andrews that, on the last night
of the session, a bill was passed abol-
ishing the Office of chief game warden.
At the request of the state auditor
Governor Clough promptly vetoed the
bill. "
The general has always been
an enthusiast on reforestation and
the preservation of our forests.
He has rendered the state
valuable services, but he has
never been duly appreciated by the
people of our state, and the salary
awarded him has not been commen-
surate with the good work performed.
Like the prophet he is without. honor
in his own country. But he is build
ing for the future, and posteritty will
do justice to the memory of Gen. G. c..
Andrews.
