DON’T DO LIKEWISE.

The, work of reserving and pro-
tecting the forests: has been taken
up by several of the provincial gov-
ernments, and it is to be hoped
that it ‘will be carried forward ju-
diciously. The areas which it is
proposed to reserve should be thor-
oughly cruised by skilled | timber.
cruisers and surveyed before the
reservation is finally made. In this
manner, precaution’ can be taken
against setting aside as timber land
rocky mountain summits ‘where
mineral abounds but trees cannot
find root-hold, or rich valley  bot-
tom lands, which are of great value
for agriculture and horticulture, but
are ot doubtful vaiue for timber cul-
ture,

Canada can ptofit in this respect
by the costly blunders of the United |
States. Urged.on by a number of
theorists and college professors in,
the East who had become impressed,
by their reading of the systems of
forestry practiced in Europe, . 1
the wisdom of forest presery ation
in America, President Cleveland in
1896 sent’ a forestry commission
through the West. ~ It’ was com-
posed of a number of Eastern ge:
tlemen:who had never ‘hit ‘the
trail” in the West and they gai
a superficial knowledge of the
ject in riding through the. forests on
Pullman‘cars, and” observing them
from the decks of Puget Saund
steamers.” They did make one ven.

* ture over a trail for 26 miles into
the ‘Olympic mountains, but, not
finding a first-class hotel and expe-
riencing that irritation of the. skin’
which is’ the fate of ‘novices on
horseback, they turned pack. They
returned East and’ made a report | ©
recommending the’ reserva
forests of great tracts in. whic’ were
mining camps, well cultiv: led
farms, and scores of postoffices.
They took in the whole summit of
the Cascade range for long dis-
tances, with all its spurs, although
no timber. at all grows above 4000
feet in elevation, and none of any
value above 3000 feet. They treated
the Olympic range ‘in the same
manner, Thus they blocked settle-
ment on the agricultural land . with-
in these areas, hampered prospect-:
ing and mineral development, put a
stop to the building ‘of. roads -and
trails and condemned the settlers al-

‘counterpart’ of what ‘th

the colony has grown strong
enough, itis encouraged to set. up
‘for itself asa nati p yoverning "it~
self and® ‘having no tie with. the
mother ‘country ‘ except a governor

‘| appointed by the crown, the pres-

erice of Small’ garrisons ‘of British | m
troops and ‘British ‘ war-ships, and
that inherent sentiment ot loyalty
Which is 'foutid in the breast of every
Briton. ‘How strong is the last
bond the present war has shown.
