CONSERVATION OF OUR NATUR-
AL RESOURCES.
Editor st. Tammany Farmer:

AS your paper is medium thru
which pepole may freely express
themselves upon the issues and top
les of the day, l desire to express
my view along the above lines
The destruction Of our forest and
other resources have reached that OF
criminal neglect, and for any one
who claims to be rational and not in
terested in conservation in a general
way is to admit his lack of knowl-
edge or interest in subject that is
Of vital interest to all.
No people has equaled the Ameri-
can in waste and destruction until
today, after having been a nation for
little more than century, we see
many of our natural resources
dwindling away until the hearts of
many are failing them. for looking
after the things that are coming up
on the earth.
At the present rate of consump-
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1920-10-23

ton, according to the most reliable
statistics, our timber resources will
be exhausted in about 20 years, and
then, or sometime thereafter, unless
we reforest, we will have to resort
to cave dwellings as did our earlier
progenitors. 1t has been said OF
them Of old that a wilful waste
makes a Woeful want. This ancient
proverb beg'n to manifest itself
every where now
Some people seem to be so entire
ly selfish and to never take into con-
sideration the future and what it
may hold for our race as regards
material things, to say nothing Of
the higher spiritual things.
Had not Kind Providence look
ed further into the future and with
such fatherly care than most of us
do to-day in respect to conservation,
the race would have become extinct
ages ago.
We owe to the future generations
to make osme provisions for them.
Every one should begin to plant and
care for trees Of every useful variety.
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1920-10-23

Conservation should be taught in
the public schools. Every state and
county in the Union should own its
own timber reservation and game
preserve.
: We are among &ose who fully
bel eve that we have entered new
age wherein all the time-worn in
situations of the past, connected with
all the selfishness of our race, shall
finally give place to true progress
and enlightenment.
So we wish to go on record as
giving our endorsement to anything
THAT tends to enlighten and really
uplift and advance our people.
1t is to be hoped that the Conser-
vaion Department will receive the
support of all who really wish for
the betterment of conditions along
the lines it has veen organized to
promoe.
Yours for conservation,
J. E. BLACKWELL.
