ARTIFICIAL FORESTS OF EUROPE 
tional parks of California, the geologic 
wonders of Yellowstone, and the speci- 
mens of arctic fauna still living among 
the matchless glaciers of Mount Rai- 
nier, are national possessions of great 
interest, for whose preservation not 
only Americans, but distinguished Eu- 
ropeans also, have pleaded. These, 
then, are ours for their own sakes; 
_ but most of our other national forest 
possessions will undoubtedly have to 
submit to further development and to 
the dictates of a sterner necessity.
