Manufacturers Demand 

 More Hard Wood 



The supply of wood suitable for doors, frames, sills, braces, 

 etc., is rapidly becoming exhausted in the United States, 

 and practiccJly is exhausted now in Eastern Canada. 



The remedy is to plant waste land in suitable varieties of 

 timber. Cities, counties, states or provinces, railroad and 

 manufacturing corporations, farmers, will do well to see this 

 opportunity and start forestry projects in 1912. 



If suitable land is available for reforesting you certainly 

 should begin planting this year. You then ought to get 

 your first harvest of marketable lumber in 1918, and it is 

 entirely practicable to average $40 an acre net cash profit 

 every \)ear after the tenth year, if you plant proper trees 

 and give right care. Your planting, besides making you 

 money, will conserve moisture, protect watersheds and springs 

 from drying up and from contamination by disease germs 

 and impurities, and will enhance the beauty and desirability 

 of your neighborhood. 



For over fifty years we have specialized in the growing of 

 seedlings and transplanted trees for forest planting. You 

 should avail yourself of our experience. Ask for "The 

 Forest Planter's Guide", a valuable little book. Write or 

 wire for prices, and for our suggestions.
