Into a At of rlgEuoua Indignation, u In many of the atatea, there has been t public recognition of the value of forest t trees and bounties have been voted by n legislatures to encourage their planting, i and the promotion of their growth. In b some of these the toil and climate of n arid districts have been modified by a e more copious rain fall, and a decrease ' In the power of local winds. f The necessity of presorting the forests of the country has long been understood, but the greed of this generation " in turning everything to money threatens to make of some districts an arid waste, over which fierce winds will h •wasp without any modifying causes tl It's a common saying, the result of acornmon experience, .that our climate Is v changing. To what cause shall this bo ? attributed. If not to the destruction of forests t Even Capo May begins «o suf- n far, for when the ax can trod material „ hero, Its mischievous work Is dttee, with no regard to conaeqeacea. It may he asked, of what good aro they ? p Science has shown that trees Increase moisture , their leaves absorb poisonous p gaaea , they afford homos and shelter p for Insectivorous birds : modify wlnda, ( and temperature, and are things of beauty and a source of comfort the year r round. Of oourae there must be a ays- p torn of forestry. It would not do to q stick a tree Just where tancv dictated. Like other growths there should be cob „ turo, the educated true U what is wanted, p so to apeak. What more beautiful and p attract! re Improvement could be made p lo-dyy at the Cape than tha planting of c a grove In the suburbs? It would In- t| crjpse the value Of property, by offering inducements for Investment to a class of visitors who never come to the li shore because there la no leafy shade. Plant trees. Let it be done along our f< streets. In public grounds, along conn- ti try highways, and If you have any old tl dead fields give them up to our native cedars and pines. They will make them of li more value """ now with annual growths at blue bent. ri It wffl ooat htarly »4D00 to more the J! tanks from the public lot on corner of Washington and Franklin street, and put up tha contemplated building for the acaonmodatloB of the fire depart- , mm*'. ckpendlture, coerioering the stale of the city's finances, is unreasonable, and in the fan of the refusal df council to make the really necessary ® property la hard to be understood.
