about and led the way to the gate,
where he trotted off without further

The Sew York forest commission is
busily engaged in restoring the vast
area laid hare ly the forest fires in the
Adirondack's and Catskills last year.
Already over 1U0O acres have been
planted with young trees from, the
nurseries maintained at Saranac and
Brown's Station. New York does not
intend to lose her forests,"and much interest is taken in the work by people
who are fond of out-door life. Michigan would make no mistake in taking
pattern after New York's plan and
thus to a.small extent replenish our
forests which have for the past few
years been rapidly slaughtered.
