fee of Attorney General Cosson, an
swering inquiries from bankers over

bonds cannot be deducted when re-
turning property for assessment un-

eminent bonds for state purposes I'M

PLANT TREES.

If In IS years the present supply OF
timber in this country will be exhaust
ed, at the present rate of consumption
the admonition to plant trees becomes
eloquent with meaning. There is
great value in trees, says the Kansas
City Times The big lumber fortunes
have been made in the main, not in
buying and selling lumber, nor even
In manufacturing lumber for sale, but
In buying vast tracts of timber land
and holding them for the inevitable
advances in timber prices incident to
the rapidly decreasing supply. Now,
it would not profit any man or cor
poration to buy large areas Of land
that could be profitab1y used for agri-
culture, fruit growing or grazing, and
set them in trees; but it would be
profitable for all who own timber
lands that could not be proftably
used for other purposes to maintain
them as permanent forests, using
only the matured trees and cutting
them and clearing the slash in such
way as 10 give the best possible pro-
lection to the immature timber. Al
so, it would be profitable to every
owner of land to plant trees on any
part of it that cannot be utilized for
other purposes. If this great nation
could inspire its landholders with
this one purpose for given time, to
the end that all land that should be
planted with trees would be SO plant
ed, the problem Of the future lumber
supply would be solved.
