ny a time lamented the short
sighted vandalism which des.
troys acres of timber merely that
a pittance may be received for
the bark. This economic crime
grows less as timber in even iso-
lated localities take on value, but
is far from checked.
Forests are so slaughtered that
they can never grow again; the
slopes upon which they grew be-
come gulleyed and useless for
any purpose. Floods, no longer
held back by forest roots and
humus, come down with devas-
tating force, Not only the noun

for their early enactment into
