tools, planlng-mill products and the
like. About one-third of the total
capital invested in the wood-manufac-
turing industries Of the country and
about one-third of the wage earners
In these industries are found in this
section. They use FIVE and half bill
lion feet of lumber year, or about
a quarter of the aggregate used in
this country for such enterprises.
Today the home product does not
nearly meet the annual requirements,
but, further than that. the cutting
that Is done far exceeds what is
grown each year II Ii probable. from
the best estimates that | have been
able TO secure, that the annual growth
of material of potential value in the
three states is not over one-quarter of
what IS cut each year. This means
that the forests are progressively los
ing ground with considerable rapidity.
This deficit is due only in part to
the clearing of land for agriculture.
1t is due also to the failure to handle
the lands In way TO secure good re-
production and properly to protect the
young trees that become established.
Win better care and management the
forest lands of these states should
yield two or three times the present
growth. and this would, | believe be
possible without checking the exten-
sion of cultivation over lands suited
to that purpose. There are many
convincing reasons why these states
should produce as much as possible in
the way OF fores; growth from land
that is best adapted to that purpose
and in the aggregate these areas
amount to a great deal"

One of the most attractive, ans
certainly very social sport, is bob
sleighing. Long. low padded toboggans,
seating as many as six persons are
used, ard under this heavy burden
the bobsleigh shoots down it's course
with amazing speed As the leader
sways, almost automatically the close
ly crowded team bend themselves,
thus guiding the sleigh to the right
or left; they apply brake by letting
themselves drop ON the snow or drive
10 greater swiftness by bending for
ward like Jockeys. Strong iron spikes,
which are driven by lever into the
ice, enable the leader to stop the
vehicle almost instantly. but sudden
application of these brakes whirls up
the ice and snow in clouds, shaking
and jelting the riders.
Skiing has taken root to an extra
ordinary extent in Switzerland. 1veE
the poorest youth does not want to do
without skis. though they might Only
consist of couple of crudely adjusted
barrel slaves. Thanks to the ski the
boys and girls living on remotely sit
uated farms are now able to attend
school every day; their parents are
no longer isolated for the best part
OF the long winter months. and thanks
also to these wooden wings" the mail
and newspapers can be delivered reg
ularly.
Sport is furthermore made easier by
the different mountain railways, which
IN winter run toboggan trains. Thus
one can travel a couple of stations up
ward ard arrive at the starting point
of a mountain road without exertion
