THE PASSING OF THE

The roof of your neigh
boris woodshed has fallen
in. Will he rebuild it? Prob.
ably he has steam heat, a
cellar full of coal and burns
gas in the kitchen range, so
that this last and delightful
relic of an older generation
will soon be gone, like the
buggy, the well sweep and
the spinning wheel.
The woodshed was always
the mans domain. No
woman ever ventured into il
except when the men were
off for the day, and an extra
bit of wood was needed to
put the finishing brown on

LAND SPECULATION

wants the state legislature to
appropriate funds to buy
land ON which to plant trees.
Forestry should be encour-

alton League of New Jersey
in statement issued today
asks, why not have the
Legislature amend, or repeal,
the law which is causing the
wanton destruction of exist
ing trees faster than the
Forestry department can
plant new ones. In many
counties Of the state the
League says, mot only forests
but cultivated fields with
crops almost ripe, have been
rayished by land spectators
through the plotting of town
lots that to all appearances
will not be built on for J,
generation. In addition 10
thus reducing the forest
area, it says, some of the
best agricultural areas adj
joining towns and cities, close
to markets, have been
destroyed.
''The direct cause of ali
this destruction" the state
ment continues, is the law
which encourages land specu-
lation and absentee land
holding by allowing the
speculaior, instead of the
state or municipality, to reap
the increase in the site-yalue
of land that results from In
creasing population, and
from public expenditures for
new roads and other inn
proyements.

ther ravishing of natural re-
sources suggested by the
Tax League, lis for the state
to levy a direct tax ON all site.

state use the site-value which
is being automatically Great
ed by increasing population

When it does this, :" it says,
there will be no more
wanton destruction of for

cultural areas be cut up into
town lots before the time
