VALUABLE BOOK FREE. The 1909 report of the state board of forestry has just been published and is now ready for distribution. This report contains many things valuable to land owners who anticipate planting some forest trees, or who have eroded or washed hillsides and waste or worn out fields that could profitably be reforested. The ‘Farmer’s Woodlot,” the source of our future timber supply, Is given comprehensive treatment. It gives directions for the care, preservation and reforesting the wood-lot. It tells you what kind of trees to plant, the distance apart and the time and amount of pruning to do. The effect of cutting off the timber from the southern Indiana hills is- amply set forth in an article on “The Reforesting the Hills of Southern Indiana.” The work, of the state forest experiment station is reviewed, and the result of the various experiments are given under the head of “Field Work." A report on several forest plaintings shows that forest planting in Indiana is properly managed is a good investment. Since concrete today is cheaper than wood for many purposes, farmers are advised to substitute concrete for wood fence posts. It Is claimed that a post that Is strong as wood, and that ought to last indefinitely, can be made for at least 25 cents. Any one interested in this report can get a copy gratis by addressing “State Forester,” Indianapolis, Ind. From Fort Wayne comes the word of the proposed building of a new depot for the Pennsylvania railroad at that point. Dr. H. E. Keller went to Monroe today on professional business.
