TREES IN DEMAND. 



We learn from the Williamsport Sun 

 that the State Forestry Department is 

 pushing so vigorously its work of tree 

 planting on the barren lands of the 

 State reservations that it has no seed- 

 lings to spare for other tree planters. 

 The act of 1909 contemplated the sale 

 of seedlings from the State nurseries 

 at cost to private purchasers. If there 

 be a demand beyond supply it would 

 indicate a satisfactory waking up on 

 the part of owners of unproductive 

 cleared land to the utility of reforesta- 

 tion. It should also spur effort on the 

 part of the State to increase the area 

 of its nurseries. There cannot be too 

 miuih done in the way of restoring our 

 torests.—rhila. Record.
