State Forest Nursery.

one resolve strikingly in line "'t4
right and progressive legislation
| toward conservation OF our foreS's
was passed by the 10th Legislature 10
provide fer the establishment OF a
state forest nursery in connection
with the forestry department al Aa-
gusta and the school of forestry at the
University of Maine.
The stated purpose Of this resolve +
| sufficient To determine its great i'm
| portance: ITO supply forest tree
seedlings suitable for planting on
waste or cut-oxer lands in the State.
at cost of production to citizens in or.
der to encourage forest planting.
The raising of forest tree seedlings
has become a highly specialized busl=
ness, catering fer the creator part t.
those desiring trees for decorative of
horticultural purposes. Even vita
This condition there are no CONNER
eial nurserymen in Maine al the pres.
ent time who make speciality OF tins
kind Of planting stock. and the prices
are prehihitive when larger ventures
are concerned Bulletins and eireu-
lars have been published and DIS
tributed. carving directions for es-
adjustment Of forest plantations. bds
when the actual planting stock Is re-
uuired il must be raised bF the pros
pective planter or purchased from cut
side the State. Seedlings imported
from Europe or secured frcm other
states are frequently found to be dis
eased or infested with fungus or IN
furious insects.
Names opportunity for work OF this
sort is unlimited. a large per cent.
of our land area is better adapted IL
growing trees than any other crop.
There are many thousands Of acres IL
rocky land with thin, poor soil or ar
sandy. barren territory which is like.
~ TO be producing nothing of value.
There is also great ucai Va
doned farm or "eut-over' land re-
naming entirely unproductive iheh,
besides this, there are more than
@. 800. 900 acres of wild lands over
which the growth is slow, Irregular
and uncertain.
With little announcement on the
part of the State it seems safe TO as
sumo that the owners of this land
would do their share in their own aud
the States interest. When this state
nursery is in operation the kind 81
stock necessary for bringing back
wealth to these waste lands Will D.
! furnished at very much lower price
| than it could be secured from the
| commercial nurseries.
Nearly all of the middle and New
England states now have large nurs-
cries of their own and are iindins
them immensely profitable. New
Hampshire, i'll one year, planted more
|
Norway spruce seedlings. Massachn-
sets has taken the matter up on D
! large scale and is buying up vase
and cut-over lands throughout tie
state.
! This, of course is enough to point
the importance of the project. WITH
her motto always in mind Maine must
keep in step. The meaning of the
| step to the individual landowner lies
with himself. The men who would
gain have had this right TO call upon
the State for aid in taking care OF
| their unyielding land. No other way
| is apparent by which such small III
| vestment could return as much. 1t IS
of immense significance to future
generations.

GETTING Too Bio

san Bernardino Sun: We can be-
leVe almost any sort Of story tha
comes out Of Imperial valley, for NJ
plummet has ever yet sounded the
depths Of its riches. But when we
read that Col w. II. Holabird, jusI
back from Washington, in the interest
OF The irrigation rights Of the valley
tOld secretary Lane that the people of
imperial valley have reclaimed 4 .OOO.
900 acres OF land, we cOnclude-weIj.
II can't be explained by the addition of
an extra cipher and 1000 Der cent bv
means Of the telegraph.
Inc sun man was over the valley
rather thoroughly tS months ago. and
was told there were then about 225 900
acres OF land under cultivation. with
the possibilities Of 100000 acres when
the last bitches have been constructed
that could be supplied from the lmpe-
rial intake.
1t is just possible that Colonel Hola-
bird drew the long bow to the extent
of saying 100000 acres, but that he
or anybody else posted on the valley
should have said 4,000,000, as was
quoted in a Sunday morning Los Ang-
eleS paper, is worse than nOnsensical.
The marvel OF the Imperial valley is
that these thousands OF cars Of canta-
lOupeS, an almost endless train OF live
stock. hay and grain for the million,
and magnificent products of almost
every kind that come from the soil or
feed upon them, should come from a
little spot not 25 miles square. rs
big enough, as it is.
