In 1 or # years the young seedlings are transâ€" formed or conquer and are ready to be thinned, and in 15 or 20 years you will have a forest of which you may be proud, for it will be a delight to look at. We cannot view the art _ of foréstry as practised in Gecmuany or France, toâ€"day without feelinx the deepest respect and admiration _ for it. It is a credit to skill and lJong and patient experiment, resulting in ~improved methods. As all the trees are of one age, they are of the same height and thickness, all stra‘glt, smooth, sound, and without limbs on the trumks. In a systematic _ forest, there will never be any over ripe trees, for as they are all of one age, they will all ripen together and be cronped together. EBeifigh fromigrants keep pouring inâ€" to Canada in great numbers, and thousands are reported to ‘be wailâ€" ing for steamers accommudation. There have never been so many seekâ€" ers after information about Canada, in the Old Country by people who have their hopes fixed on Canada. When Mr. Chamberlain takes the stand he does, it means thas . the strongest man, the most vir ile, per sovality, in the ruling party in Britâ€" ain. is coming around to a convicâ€" tion that â€" interâ€"imperial discrimingâ€" tion against outsiders, is the first desideratum in the cementing o Britâ€" ish imperial unity. That Mr. Chamâ€" berlain, having studied the matter, has come out so boldly is characterâ€" istic enough of the man, yet one is justified from Mr. Chamberia.n‘s polâ€" itical record, in thinking that _ he would not do so unlees his shrewd intelligénce were sure either thet considerable public opinion alrcady exists in favor of the vrcicrential it (By Marcel Hoekn, Berlin ) The question is often asked why is it that in Germany and France forâ€" estry has been successfully practised by the Government for a ccat 1y and a half, and we are only now thinking of teaching coming generations â€" how best to conserve our foresss ?
