Timely Words From Outside.

An editorial published IN the cur
rent issue of American Forestry, the
magazine Of the American Forestry
association, discusses the need for a
land policy in relation 10 the cut-oger
lands of the Great Lakes states-Wis-
consin, Michigan and Minnesota The
article says:
Here, available to the markets OF
the world, are A.. 100000 acres Of un-
used and uncared for American soil,
an area so large in the aggregate that
the average mind cannot comprehend
its yastness or its potential richness.
Millions of acres are suitable for cul-
tiyatiOn. Millions of acres are suit
able for growing forests "a crop which
yields wood, wood products, recreat-
ion, wild life and summer tourists. +"
As soon as possible all this idle, I'M
productive land should be put to work
the farming land to raising food and
the nOnfarming land TO producing
timber-successiye crops of timber
in order to insure a continuous sup
ply. Timber is one of mans greatest
needs. Timber is a crop no less than
wheat Idle forest land is economic
loss no less than idle farming land
American Forestry well says that it
is wonder that things which obvious
ly ought 10 be done are not done. To
be sure, it says, settlers are reclaim
ing few hundred thousand acres
every year, but, on the other hand,
more land is still being cut over than
is being cleared for farming. What is
not TILED is swept frequently by fire,
which deyastates young growth and
destroys the fertility of the soil All
the time, moreover, the people of
Wisconsin and these other states are

forced to buy from Oregon aud Wash
ington, al high prices, plus heavy
freight charges. timber winch, with a
little encouragement, they could grow
to advantage almost at their very
doors.
In Wisconsin the proportion Of non
farming land to good agricultural land
is quite small, but there is enough OF
it 10 grow much more than a billion
dollars worth of timber, every 81
years, enough OF it to supply the
states needs and leave a big surplus
for export; enough of it to expand
greatly our wood-usiHg industries,
now rapidly passing away; enough OF
it to revive dying communities and
establish new ones; enough of it to
give employment to many thousands
Of men ID the woods and in the factor
les, and enough Of it, if covered with
trees, TO transform the face of Wiscon-
sin by recreating beauty that has been
destroyed.
