I.—Declaring that no appreciable headway is being made for reforestation in Indiana, and that the meager timber supply left is being cut and utilized at an alarm in;; rate, Charles C. Deam, state forester for Indiana department of con strvation, this afternoon raised the question, will Indiana be treeless in less than one hundred years? Deam was one of the principal si eakers at the annual meeting of the Ohio state forestry association.

“A hundred years ago Indiana pos st ssed magnificent virgin forests, thv like of which were found nowhere else in the middle west states and the sup< riority of which gave the state na tion-wide prominence,” he said. “Today, eighty-five per cent, of this rich timber resource has disappearel ar.d the remaining fifteen per cent wnich is chiefly of mediocre quality and principally second growth, is heir g rapidly cut and prepared by more than a hundred saw mills for an everready market. ‘‘The scarcity of lumber and the exorbitant price makes us excited as to how long will the Indiana forests last? Will Indiana be treeless in less than a hundred years? Where will we procure our timber supply in a hundred years hence." In asking these questions Dearn explained he had in mind that it required a hundred years to grow a tree to saw log size, and that saw logs cut a hundred years hence must be small trees growing today. s—s—s—WANT ADS EARN—s—s—s PHONES— Residence 780 White—Business 96 F.
