MODERN FORESTRY 



New Earth great progress has been made in 

 forestry, both national and state, the work 

 now under way by the nation and by indi- 

 vidual commonwealths, taken in connection 

 with this remarkable demonstration of the 

 power of man to create trees practically at 

 will, makes the future fuller of promise by far 

 than the past. In no one of the various lines 

 of life that take their rise in the earth has 

 there been greater need of earnest and pro- 

 gressive action in this present revival of knowl- 

 edge, or this creation of knowledge, if you will, 

 than in this one of forestry: in no line has a 

 greater energy been set in motion.
