Micsouri's Forests.

Nature has bestowed upon the 10000 square miles of Missouri rich and va rledN gifts, and they will not diminish if they'are handled on the right economic system. On the other hand, they will certainly be destroyed If not protected by forethought and wise methods. When forests are slashed off waste fully something more than timber is wiped out. Floods are increased, and the climate itself is affected. A farm CT whose soil washes away loses his working basis. Every desert place in the paths of civilization tells It's story of a wanton waste of the forests. The mischief may be quickly done. Only ten years ago the wooded area in Mis- souri was estimated at 41,00O square miles, or GO per cent. Now the forest area Is stated to be 27,0O0 square miles, or 30 percent. The lumber production in Missouri during the last decade has averaged at least G00,0O0,000 feet a year. At this rate comparatively It. tie would cease to be reckoned in large way. Yet, properly conserved, 1t would last forever.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
