“The A. S. T. Journal,” official organ of the 
American Surgical Trade Association, he 
worked in a sawmill and later spent 7 years 
visiting lumber camps selling hospital insur¬ 
ance. During this time he visited 300 log¬ 
ging camps in Minnesota, Wisconsin and 
Michigan. He has traveled through Egypt, 
Palestine, China, and India and over every 
mile of railroad in Alaska, and by steamer 
down the Yukon and up the Tanana. 
The work is being carried on in a sys¬ 
tematic and business-like manner. His for¬ 
estry headquarters are in Hammond, where 
he employs a staff of men and women., In 
one letter he writes: “I wish you would put 
me in touch with men whosa hearts are in 
the right place and who will do in their 
states what I am trying to do in Indiana.” 
Why Trees Die 
The 37 Colorado Blue Spruce trees shown 
below in 12 inch flower pot raised from seed 
in a basement near a window are now over 
3 feet high. 
It is just as easy to raise trees from 
seed as it is tomatoes or cabbage. 
They can be planted in a box or flower 
pot any time during the year. If planted 
So many say “I WANT A 
BIG 4 or 5 FOOT EVER¬ 
GREEN TREE." But when 
you tell them how many 
times 4 or 5 foot evergreen 
trees must be transplanted 
and what it costs to do this 
work they can’t understand 
it. If you buy an apple, 
peach, pear or plum tree 
from a nursery about half of 
the limbs have been removed 
to offset the roots left in the 
ground or the tree will die or 
linger along and never 
amount to anything. 
The root system of the lit¬ 
tle 3 year old tree shown ex¬ 
tends 30 inches in the ground 
Imagine how long the main 
roots of a 4 or 5 foot tree 
must be IF NOT TRANS¬ 
PLANTED MANY TIMES. 
If you buy trees follow 
instructions. Don’t allow air 
to strike the roots for one 
minute. Few know that the 
sap of an evergreen tree is 
pitch and when the air strikes 
it for a short time the tree dies 
when it is cold, keep them in the kitchen 
or in the basement if there is furnace heat, 
Keep the ground moist but not too wet or 
little trees will die. 
Evergreen trees placed in the basement 
in the fall will grow from 3 to 8 inches dur¬ 
ing the winter. Deciduous trees will grow 
as much as 15 inches. 
By following instructions sent with each 
package of seed a boy 10 years of age can 
raise trees as successfully as a grown person

The President of the Board of the Lake 
County Sanitarium, says: “The 3,000 ever¬ 
green and 2500 black walnut trees planted 
on the sanitarium property, which you fur¬ 
nished, have added thousands of dollars to the 
value of the institution.”

FROM THE NATIONAL LUMBER 
BULLETIN, WASHINGTON, D. C. 
AUGUST 1, 1929 
Frank S. Betz, of Hammond, Indiana, 
who retired from business as a manufactur¬ 
er of surgical goods In 1915, is now inject¬ 
ing his energy into a reforestation cam¬ 
paign. It is not a campaign of word propa¬ 
ganda, but of actual work. He is setting the 
example in his home state, and he urges 
men in other states to do likewise. He buys 
tree seed and seedlings, which are distribut¬ 
ed throughout the state. 
Mr. Betz is well acquainted with the log¬ 
ging and the milling end of the lumber In¬ 
dustry. According to biographical sketch of 
him published in the June, 1929, number of

AN EDITORIAL 
“Each county seat has its Rotary, its 
Kiwanis, its Lions, its Eagles, its Izaak 
Walton League, its Chamber of Commerce 
and other organizations formed for the pur¬ 
pose of improving the whole locality, but 
they are composed mostly of young men who 
know the present worthlessness of those hills, 
but they do not know of their past value, 
and they do not seem to know that past value 
can be made to return to them, but action 
must be taken immediately or it will be eter¬ 
nally too late. Each of those organizations 
should have its Forester, and a strong commi¬ 
ttee on reforestation and the work should be 
taken up by them as the most important duty 
that lies immediately before this generation. 
It will soon be to late- everlastingly too 
late.”—The Indiana Evening Gazette.
