Flint then presented most inform
ing and comprehensive paper on the
forests of our state.
She stated that only few million
feet of lumber from Vermont had
been utilized for war purposes. For
economic reasons this was fortunate.
This is u state which produces Il
great many manufactured wood arti-
cles. Most of them were classcd as
essentials during the war, so it was
not necessary to have the wood i'm
ported from other parts of the coun
try as would have been necessary if
much of the timber had been convert
ed into air-plane parts, ships, etc.
She spoke of the wood cutting clubs
inaugurated during the war and
quoted some of the axioms written
for these clubs.
Many towns and cities are plant
ing trees and memorial avenues in
memory of their hero dead and
cited the great Boulevard in Clcvc-
land whose name has been changed
to Liberty Boulevard and whose
driveway is lined with memorial
trees. In our own state the Wonl-
ans Club of St. Adams had founded
a memorial aevnue there. She put
in a plea for municipal forests and
stated that Rutland and Montpelier
already had them.
In closing she gave several reasons
why tree culture and forestry should
be encouraged as much as possible in
Vermont.
First the splendid tree species we
have, the white pine, red spruce, ash
sugar maple, etc. Then the rapidity
of growth owing to our cold climate,
which does not cause erosion as a
warmer and damper climate will.
Vermont also has the best laws
for tree protection in the country,
Nearness to markets was cited as an
other reason for the interest that
should be taken in forestry here. Al
so that a small tax on young timber
land should be encouraged raising the
tax as the land becomes more valu-
able, so that owners of tracts Of
cumberland will not feel the necessity
for cutting timber when it has not
reached it's mature growth.
The orchestra rendered a waltz fol-
lowed by slumber song by the
chorus.
Miss Howe then discussed the
birds in an informal manner and told
why they were the greatest protec-
ton to our forests. She said that
birds were not usually spoken of in.
relation to the welfare of the woods
only by those that know them best.
She told why the woodpeckers. were
the first scientific foresters, and said
that it was commonly thought that
they were injurious to the life of the
trees, but that as a matter of fact
they rarely bore into a tree that is
not full of insects or that does not

ally brocs and black ants. The sap
sucker is the bad member of the fam
lily as he bore5 into green trees but
really does Il great deal Of good 9TH
clwisc, however. She then told how
the warbler family saved the leaves
by eating the aphids and the tiny in
sects; how the cuckoo in particular
does away with the army worm and
the tent caterpillar, assisted by the
catbild and the oliole, and what an
infinite amount of good the black
birds do to our orchards. She
quoted from Longfellow'S Birds of
killingworth, how the village had
decided the birds must all be killed
off as the crows ate some Of the corn
and how they did kill all Of them and
the dire results, and how the follow
ing year they imported them by
hundreds.
She closed by saying that when we
realize there are over 100000 spe-
cics of winged insect and that these
can only be caught and killed by
other winged creatures it is easier to
understand why we should help to
create public sentiment to do every
thing possible to save our birds.
The afternoons program was clos
ed by number given by the orches-
ira, "Revelie."
No one could leave the hall with
out feeling that the afternoon had
been exceedingly well spent and to
appreciate more fully our wooded hills
and the feathered songstcrs therein.
