September 15.—Drainagé for agricultural purposes has been carried to the point of being too much of+a good thing in the.Mid- Northwestern States, " but conducted on »a more moderate scale fors.for- estry purposes would be a very good thing, in the opinion of Rafael Zon, director of the Lake States Forest nn years ago,” she re!atel‘ hen little Martha Arnold, my young- est child, was only 17 months old, I was faced‘with the problem of making a living the best I could for myself and children. Alex, the other child, Experiment Station here. Bone-dry drainage of bogs, swamps and small lakes,” he says, has run ahead of the market demand for farm lands in the region and has put taxes up to a point most unpopular with the farmers, besides exposing the tin- der-like peat to Summer dought and hence giving rise to an abnormal fire risk. Succession of Trees. But partial drainage of, the wet tim- ber lands, based on practical exper- fence already obtained in Europe in the lands around the Baltic Sea, he thinks, would be a most profitable thing for both private and public forestry in America. The typical timber swamp in the Lake States region has a zone of deep peat around its edge, which thins out gradually until it gives place to the sandy or loamy upland. There is a regular succession of trees from the water's edge outward, beginning with “tam: and running through black spruce, cedar, balsam, black ash, red maple, white pine, birches and poplar to ‘upland hardwoods, by blending stages. Wet Soil Unsuited. In general, the wetter the soil, the more stunted and useless for lumber are the trees. This is partly because the water is acid, partly because it contains little or no oxygen for the roots to breathe, and partly because it hinders the normal bacterial popu- lation which woujd develop greater fertility in the soil. Lowering the water table, or perma- nent level of sgil water, remedies these and other unfavorable conditions and | gives the trees &' new lease of life. In one case cited by Mr. Zon, seven years after partial drainage, runty trees, 10 feet high and a little over a foot in trunk diameter, had doubled their _height and more than doubled their thickness. And experience in Eurppe, h8 says, has definitely shown that judicious partial drainage, pays in dnllan agd cents. — e —— fi'ix the atisene of any grave anx- k&;l that often makes us worry over trifles. | hit a tree nine nulm W o be)mmlr all #scapin’ with minor cept th' tree, which wuz killed too had we hain’t got more spirited citizens like Tell Bink- his basement open ave a_convention or Remlcy t'day.
