PAYING FOR VyANT0N WASTE
Settlers Have Lived to Regret the
Ruthless Destruction Of Their -
r a.. Black Walnut Trees. "

Not many years ago the, settlers OF
the middle West were girdling black
walnut trees in order to kill them, the

serves. They were too lazy to cut
them down and took this method to
destroy the life Of the trees, SO that
they might plant corn and sow grain
among the dead and leaf1ess trees.
In some localities mills were saving
the walnut logs into lumber for all
purposes, even for boarding, floors
and clapboards, inside finish and
everything that, could be made from
it and many good walnut board has
been split up for kindling. 49,
Walnut was then cheap and plenti,
full. The settlers wanted to clear the
land, and no one thought that the
Underworld become exhausted. Then
the forests were full Of grand old
trees, any one of which would today
pay the ;possessor the purchase price
of many acres of land. ~ y ~ u"

the price is very high, as is illustrated
by the fact that, Maryland farmer s

Walnut IS not alone in It's scarcity,

great value, and now efforts are being
made to reforest the denuded lands
with black walnut. It is safe to as
sumo that those little trees will be
watched with great care until they
grow to n1erchantabl" size, and then
others will be set to replace the: cut
tings. There will be no more ruth

one that will never be forgotten.

that all governments are now Pro:
