Show In Various parts of the country efforts ef-forts arc making to stimulate the cultivation culti-vation of forest trees, and to check the reckless and wasteful destruction of woods for which Americans have been distinguished. California has engaged a professional arboriculturist, at a salary sal-ary of $15,000 a year, to superintend the selection and planting of trees in that State; and if the man is master of his business, the money paid to him will be well invested. The legislatures of several States arc moving in this matter, which commends itself to the favorable consideration of every practical practi-cal mind. Cold Hill Anr |
