pouetui all of the qualifications that 

 have made N. C. Pine the favored building 

 material in the East since the days of 

 the Pilp-ims. We've steadfastly upheld 

 its quality through perfect milling and 

 careful grading; and the modern equip- 

 ment of our mills today, together with 

 vast holdings of virgin timber, insure you 

 a quality of lumber for many years to 

 some in every way up to the past stan- 

 dards of "Goldsboro N. C. Pine."

{Continued from page 258) 

 making the profession of forester or forest 

 engineer, a closed one. That is, no one 

 will be allowed to practice as a profes- 

 sional forester or to call himself a forester 

 or forest engineer who has not a diploma 

 from the Forest School of Laval Univer- 

 sity. Those already in practice who have 

 such a diploma, or a diploma from some 

 extra Quebec forest school and four years 

 practice in Quebec or having no diploma 

 but six years practice in Quebec will be 

 allowed to register and become members 

 of the Quebec Association of Forest En- 

 gineers. This would put the foresters on 

 the same footing as men in the other pro- 

 fessions, but would be obviously unfair to 

 other institutions granting degrees in fores- 

 try. McGill University has protested 

 against the passage of the bill, and the 

 Canadian Society of Forest Engineers, at 

 its annual meeting, went on record as op- 

 posing making forestry a "closed" profes- 

 sion. The bill will probably pass, but it 

 is greatly to be hoped, with important 

 modifications. 



LOCUSTS RECLAIM WASH LANDS 



{Continued from page 253) 

 will soon realize its forests are one of its 

 greatest resources, that it needs a real de- 

 partment of forestry, and that an appro- 

 priation to carry on ithe work of such a 

 department will be a profiH>aying invest- 

 ment. 



A great change is wrought in just two 

 or three years by the planting of locusts ; 

 but one has himself to see the eroded and 

 reclaimed lands fully to appreciate it. To 

 stand on the edge of one of these waste 

 places, look down into its red depths, and 

 note how the soil above its head and along 

 its sides is all the time falling into it to be 

 swept away ; and then to come back in 

 two or three years and see the same area 

 a sheet of rich-ihued living green, a beauty 

 spot instead of a scar on the landscape, and 

 to realize that it is now growing good 

 hard dollars for its owner every year and 

 also lessening the danger of washing to 

 the fields above and below it to see such 

 change as this with one's own eyes is to 

 begin to realize the importance of this 

 work, and also something of what the 

 trees we have often so wilfully and waste- 

 fully slaughtered mean to the preservation 

 of our fields and to our prosperity as a 

 people. 



and Massachusetts Avenues, Sixteenth and 

 Seventeenth Streets, there are Kentucky 

 coffee trees. In Farragut Square there is 

 a symmetrical yellow-wood tree that looks 

 like a cross between a beech and a locust. 

 There is an avenue of ginkgo trees on 

 Thirteenth Street, leading to the Agricul- 

 tural Dpartment. The leaves of the ginkgo 

 tree look like the leaves of a maiden-hair 

 fern. The fruit is much sought after by 

 the Chinese. "A word to the wise is suffi- 

 cient." Do not put the fruit in your pocket 

 for the stone is covered with a soft pulp 

 which, when crushed, is evil-smelling. 



From an educational standpoint it is 

 urged that the trees in Washington and 

 also in other cities be labeled both with the 

 botanical and with the common names.

THE "FOREST OF THE STATES" 

 'T'HE Pennsylvania Department of Fores- 

 try has shipped a white ash tree, six 

 feet high, to the Chamber of Commerce, 

 Los Angeles, California. The white ash 

 tree will be Pennsylvania's contribution to 

 "The Forest of the States" that is being 

 established on the Pacific Coast. It was 

 grown by District Forester T. Roy Morton 

 in the Greenwood Forest Tree Nursery, in 

 Huntingdon County.
