After dwelling at considerâ€" able length on the forestry work in the several provinces; the speaker concluded by referring to the pros- .pe'cf, that before long steps may be taken to organize a Canadian fores- try school, where our young men may receive a forestry education suited to the needs of our country. ROOSEVELT ' S G REET I KG . Gifl‘ord Pinchot. chief of the. forest service of the United States. brought to the convention a personal mes- sage of goodâ€"will from President Roosevelt, who added 8150 an ex- pression of his conviction of the good that will result to Canada from the work of this convention. ' 1 Hon. James' Wilson, l'nite-d States Secretary of Agriculture, desired al- ‘so to express his high appreciation lof~ the wisdom that prompted , the f calling of the Canadian Forestry con ‘vcntion and his good wishes for the 'sucoess'of its Work. Americans and Canadians have. both seen enough to realize that the day will com? when our extensivc'fowst resources will be exhausted. unless steps are taken to oreserve them from extinction. Agâ€" riculture is an absolute impossibility in the absence of forests. Moreover the same thing is true of mining‘and ‘rajlway' building. In the United States wrestry was Iooked upon as a M'siness preposition entirely aside from sentiment-.1 feelings, and it was pleasant to learn that by so doing a widespread interest has been develop- ed therein: NEED OF RESERVES. Mr. Pinchot outlined the policy that had been adopted in His country of teaching the them-egos] value of forestry in schools and of impressing it upon farmers and lumbermm by practical‘ demonstrations and by set- t- y: Irv vuvâ€"u -VVW - ting aside forest reserves aggregat- ingd00,000,000 acres.
