Borrowing Forest Trees.
The Importance of Tree Planting For
Forest Purposes.

The Importance of Tree Planting For
Forest Purposes.
/ WASHINGTON, D. c., July Is. The en-
terprise of German foresters and the i'm
portance Of tree planting for forest pur-
poses are strikingly shown by two items
of news which come, the one from Mon
tana; the other from Ontario. 1t is re-
ported that demand has developed for
Montana larch seeds to be used by Ger
man nurserymen, while white pine seed
lings are to be imported from Germany
by the town Of Guelph, Ont, for plant
ing 16S-acre tract of land belonging to
the municipality.
The Germans recognize that the intro
duction into their forests of valuable
trees native to other countries may be
decidedly to their advantage. Although
each region are those which naturally
grow in it, there are many exceptions.
Norway spruce and Austrian and Scotch
pine have been carried from their native
home to other parts of Europe and to
America and have been found we'll worth
the attention of the grower of timber.
Several of our own species have met with
favor in Europe and fourished there,
such as the Douglas fir, black walnut,
and others. The Australian eucalyptus
is proving a great find for America and
South Africa.
Our own white pine long ago crossed
the Atlantic in response to the needs OF
Europeans, whose forests are compare
lively poor in tree species, and is now
grown commercially on such scale that
when it is wanted for planting in its own
native habitat the German nurseryman
is often ready to deliver young plants
here for a lower price than our own
nurserymen will quote. Now the, Ger
mans are going to try the Western larch
/ also. The request from the German nur-
seryman instructs the collectors to gath
err the choicest seeds when ripe this fall.
One nurseryman on Flathead Lake has
/
of desirable German shrubs which he
/ intends to cultivate and sell in America.
In the same region, four or five months
ago, foresters of our own Department of
Agriculture gathered seed for use in the
neighboring Lolo Forest, where a new
forest-planting nursery was begun last
year
The objects of the Guelph planting are,
according to local accounts, to protect
the town S water source by forest cover
over its springs in the hills, to make a
beautiful woods for public park, and to
provide for future timber supply as a
municipal asset. In foreign countries,
forest tracts are often owned and man.
aged by towns and cities as paying in
vestment and to insure a permanent
supply Of wood for local consumption,
but in America planting by municipali-
ties other than for parks and for water
shed protection has scarcely been thought
of. The kinds of trees to be grown in
the Guelph park have already been de-
cided upon by the Ontario Agricultural
College. The proposed 1eforestation
promises to be of so great economic and
sanitary value that the estimated cost OF
So per acre for importing and planting
the seedlings and caring for the growing
trees is regarded as well worth while.

The Shoe Situation.

A full quota of buyers are now in the Boston
market and many of them have contributed to
the recent better trade in footwear by placing
good fall orders. Lower prices were accepted
on late sales. Leather continues generally
slow, although reports from Boston indicate a
somewhat better trade in the East and curtail-
ment by tanners is general the effort being to
prevent further declines.-Dun's Review, July

GA man should not marry
until he is past 80 and knows
the world; a woman should
marry in her teens and
know nothing of the world. y
The above statement was
made by the young Due de
Montpensier, brother of the
Due d'Orleans, pretender to
the throne of France, when
asked by a New York re-
porter if he was looking for
an American wife.
According to interviews
with a number of prominent
Spokane women, few if any
of the women, young girls
or mothers, would submit to
the dukes advanced theories
of matrimony, but, on the
contrary, they consider them
as emanating from an mex
perienced source.
Mrs. E. A. House, president of the
| Woman's club: Il feel that the
dukes statement is very unwise
We see and hear of so many mar
riages where the man is 80 years OF
age, and a man of the world, and
he marries' a mere slip of girl, not
yet out of her teens. Such unions
generally lead to the divorce court
before the wife reaches 20 years Of
age.
According to my ideas, gr
should not marry until she is q
