BILE for the alternate periods OF food and
drought, and for the increased amount
OF erosion along the banks of streams

Professor Leslie B. Ssely, in an article
entitled "Some Problems of Forestry"
recently published. And the thing he

prOphesies that a, the present rate Of
consumption, "the supply OF standing
timber in the United States, by liberal
estimate of the best available statistics,
will last only fifteen or twenty years. !"
Not all the blame for this deplOrable
condition is placed on the shoulders Of
the modern lumbeFmep, who have
welded their axes unthinkiDgly and
who have sacrificed the future OF the
county for the dollars their wholesale
slaughter Of trees brought them. That
Il viewed as history, aud now Professor
Seely urges cooperation OF the state and
the individual landowners as a means
of remedying the matter.
