The following paper was reed before the
American ASSOMatiOn for the Advance
unent of Science 1ate13r in melon ia Toronto.
M. Phil)ps prefaced his remarks by etating
that a number of plane for the preeervation
of our fame' had been euggeeted by different
people, but he was convinced from his ex.
penance the follovving half dozen summaries
of methods were distinctly practical
In aorover to this ;potion, I will mention
the different methods' which appear to me
most feasible.
AROUSING PUBLIC OPINION
Each State gr Province shonIcl employ a
competent official to obtain information on
the aubject, and circulate it by raetins of
pa_ phlets generally °ailed Forestry Reports.
W th these, two things en advteable, firet,
that they be written in an interesting etyle,
for mere dictionary statements on the
eubject would eirnply be left unread; next,
that they be widely distributed and among
proper permons, not merely sent to officials
cm prominent men, on whpse shelves they
are likely to remain unread. An excellent
method is that a obtaining, from eorrse well.
informed person in each locality, the names;
of all he knows" likely to read with profit
such a book, and minding one by post to each
on his list. In addition to this, it will
greatly aid if the forestry official be able to
address, during each year, many oommunioto
ions to the press throughout his State or
Province. In addition again, addresses
delivered at many. points eaoh year will be
found of great norm]. ••
DISTRIBUTION OF TREES,
Young sapling'
s obtained in the forest,
are very inferior to nursery grown plants.
The lomat sapling has generalleeitwo or three
long roots, whioh cannot be obtained in full
extension or carried or planted if they were ;
they must be out, and the °hence of growing
risked, Then many of them are grown in the
;shade, and will not stand the open sun. On
the Other hand, the nursery sapling, two or
three times transplanted, as it should be,
gets a more bunchy and fibrous root each
time, and naturally grows fay better, when
placed in its ultimate position. Very diriall
trees, eepeolally evergreen, oan be, indeed
and often are, taken froni the forest], and
planted in the nursery,' when after two
transplanting'', they will have excellent
roots. But when obtained from seek or
when young from large nuraeries, the •work
b far more easy and certain. When one
goes for trees to the bush, though saplings
apparently be countlessagt is surprising
what trouble it will take to find what is
wanted, and to get fair roots then. Again,
in our seteled country, 'cattle are 'oftenmade
so free of the bush that young trees are hard
to get in any ease. For all these reasons], if
the farmer had available, when he was
eleady, some thousands of good ewell.roded
alliplings of the kind he wishes, he would
of ten be willing to planleand care for them.
Therefore, I consider that a large government
nursery, where trees might bef,obtained free
of cost, would be one of the greatest induce-
xnents to land -owner's to plant. It will not
do to say that he who wants trees should
buy them.
There is an inducement needed here, or
the work will not be done. The work is
national; ibis the nation desires the farmer
to plant the trees ; it was the fault
fault of the nation that he was ever allowed
to obtain public land at first, without an
agreement to retain a certain portion in
trees, Few should be in a batter position
to say than I, as I have now for seven years
been examining the Subject; and lam strong.
ly of opinion, that under a system of free
saplinge, twenty times as much planting
would be done as at present. instead
of free nurseries, governments to netimea
grant orders on nureerymen. W 1 h care-
ful and earnest; supervision either pl sta would
• answer. The great point is—Free distribu-
tion of young trees.
SETTLING FRESH WOODLAND.
• The great error of the original settlers
was taking hill and hollow, mountain and
valley, indiscriminately for eettlenaent. The
result is that many niountain tops were
cleared, farmed, and ruined, for the soil
wash%) away, and in a few years nothing is
• possible but to desert ib, and go deevehere.
That the mountain should be wooded and the
eloping valley cropped is the very A. B. C.
of forestry, and this should be !mound by
eaying to the settler, "Thu cannot have
such a lob; ib is a mountain bop; it? must
stay in wood ; and if you take such another
lot, you must agree to keep such a part in
wood, and to keep cabbie out." This may
seem harsh to the settler;'but in the end
it would be far better for him. If there
is one lesson more than another, which over -
clearing bas taught Amerioa, it is that peo-
ple should not be allowed to enter the wood.
land to hack and hew as they please. There
• are now millions] of aloes of deserted and
worn.out farms in the Eastern States and
Canada whioh ,were stimpls the elevated
ridges, fit with oare to bear timber forever,
but nob fit for farms, as the earth washes off.
It is hard for the settler in's forest to know
the elevation, but the survey should have
regulated matters. I wieh it to be under-
stood that here I speak from my own ex
perience. When, over thirty years ago,
with no one to guide us, many of us entered
the forest], we olesered,much land which never
should have felt the axe and is now worth-
less, or very near it. Thi e is nob Proposed

FREE (MAIMS,
In prairie countries sectionskof land have
been given free to settlers, on condition
that) a oertainnumber of acres, generally ten,
be planted with trees and kept iugood condi-
tion for a certain period. This has been tried
for years in the States, but frauds are odd
to be perpetrated under it, I have myself
found, when at the great • private nurseries
in the weet, where the young trees were
procured, that it is always a practice to
purchase the worst, the culls, in feet, for
tree claitn lots. The system was neverthe-

eight years in Kansas by railroad, compan-

even whit this suoceseful example before
their eyes, settlers plant little, When I,
saw them they were four and six years old,
yet, still the prairie for hundreds of miles
was comparatively treeless, though all ad.

oomtnend, in prairie countries, 'while the
soil is yet in government hands, that many
millions of young trees be planted and
oared for under government appropriations,
cultivated to keep down weeds for a couple
of years, and the prairie close by ploughed
to prevent fire running to the trees.
In this we should not wait for ex•
experients long. It is necessary to plant
four times as many trees as needed,' to al-
low for thinning and by planting different
varieties ib would be easy so to arrange them
that even if three-fourths failed we should
still have a forest. But three-fourths would
nob fail. This would cost millions of dollars,
it is true; and it is equally true that it is a
matter in which, above all others, millions
should be spent. If, when I first saw the
prairie States, between thirty and forty years
ago, an appropriation of ten millions of dol-
lar° had been given to plant trees and care
for the groves then existing, those state
would, I am well assured, be more valuable
by a thousand millions of dollars now. Can
nations nob afford such sums ? Let us think
of the sums they are without exceptions
ready to 'mend in war; and then answer.
Bub that, it may be said, ie to preserve
national life. „ So is the other. Every well
informed student of history is aware that in
all the past, as the forests of a country were
destroyed beyond a proper proportion, na-
tional life weakened, lard by the Mine, when,
as examples show us, the treeless desert had
overspread the ground, the nation was dead.
PRESERVING TIMBER ronasas.
The preservation of these has been little
thought of in America, and the lumberman,
on condition of paying the authorities a
certain amount, has been too often allowed
bo cut at his pleasure. No oare has been
taken to replant forests. In Europe, on the
other hand, the 1 wood -buyer is carefully
instructed as to what portion he may clear
or thin, while as soon eat the ground is ready
it is agaia planted or the gaps filled. Two
reasons for the American practice existed:
first, farm land was needed. This reason
ia not now valid, as the pine land now left
Is very largely too poor for agriculture. See -
°end and chiefly, the timber could be sold.
Matters have now come to pretty mach the
following cendition. This generation, say
for thirty years, will have timber enough,
though they will have to use much wood
hitherto thought unfit. After that, there
will be little good pine and nob much good
hardwood in our present forests; what is
obtained will be brought frons British Col-
umbia and the forests of the Southern
States, while the generation following will
exhaust these. Considering the well-known
benefit; of keeping a large ruction of the
country in forest--benefics which it not
the province of this paper to state—I
would earnestly urge the people of America
to consider how much more advantageous it
would be at once and decidedly to say of
certain large portions now in forest, "These
shall nob be cleared for setlenient—bhese
shall be .saored to the tree.'. Once this
determination is arrived at the rest is easy.
Nothing is more simple than- to introduce
and maintain a method of forest preserva-
tion, if populations demand it, and govern-
ments fulfil their desires,
It is often said, " We have a large propor-
tion of forest land." But most of this is
not good forest. Much has been overrun
by fire, muoh culled of every good stick by
the lumberman. Bat nearly all of this
might be renewed, and made good perma-
nent forest, if the Means were used.
I will close this paper by stating what is
done in Ontario for, forest preservation.
Much forestry literature has been for years
circulated by the local government, and
with good affeot. -A money bonus, half paid
by government and half by the township, is
given for the planting of lines of trees, in
good condition after three- years, in every
township which chooses to adopt the law.
Over fifty rangers half paid by government
and half by the lumbermen, are kept in the
woodvdttring the -sumteer months to pre.
vent fires, a very valuable measure. An
arbor day has been instituted, with exoel.
lent results, .
Finally, the answer to the question,
"How shall we protect our forests " is :
"Spend more money in their preservation,
and be less eager to make money by cutting
them down."

dowas that their smears should drive the

Soon after there came, as the .taahdi's Dleut-
tanant no doubt thought it, the fulfilment of
the promiee, for Reser Pasha, advancing to
the relief of Tokar, was overwhelmed by the
rush of the Arab speartnan, and 2,000 of his
troops were killed. Then Sinkat fell, and
soon after Tokar surrendered. Ret, on a
sudden, the tide turned, and at El Teb our
young troops, fighting hand to hand with
the Soudaneee, once more restored to the
bayonet the preetige of seprematay. Leap-
ing out of their pits the Aro,Ise came rushing
on to our square—"as magnificent A spectacle
of courage as the world had ever seen,"
gad Col. Fred Burnaby—fearless of death,
ehoutiog and braodishing their opeare. Nor
did the eteady volleying of otir Martinis
stop the impetuoue onset, for the gallant
enemy would not be gainsaid. They tisane
right on through the storm of bullets and
crossed their veers with British steel. It
Was a tough fight and a fair one, but the
bayonet gained the day.
Once and again, after this, the earne sharp
lesson has been taught. At Abu Klea, ex-
actly as at Tamanieb, the Soudanese tried
hard and bravely
• To RUSH 01JR SQUARE.
At one point, in spite of a withering fire,
they actually did penetrate it, but, as be-
fore the hand-to•hand fight of bayonet
against spear that ensued ended in the via -
tory of the former. At McNeill's' mob& the
fighting was as dose, but the bullet and the
bayonet foiled the great oross.handed sword
and lengthy spear.
Now at oski the same old tale has been
told.
The m
ajority of the Arabs, in all these
fights, were armed with only theirs pears
and swords, and the disproportion in the
killed on the Nile—fifteen hundred against)
seventeen—proves the fatal superiority of
arms of precision, when held by cool and
disciplined soldiers, over the weapons of
past days, the ponderous Crusaderafasbion
sword which the Souclanese carry, and the
lanee which, bill 'gunpower Seas invented,
was the tried fonifidable weapon of war.
Once recognised as a formidable weapon,
two varieties came' into existence, the heavy
stabbing "assegai," as the Zahn call it, and
the lighter one with keener heed for throw-
ing. Amorg savage nations these are
still in vogue. The South American oar -
ries both. All over Africa it is the chief
equipment of the warrior, varying from
the needle -pointed javelin of some of the
equatorial tribes to the broad paddle -blade
heads of the ponderous spears of others.
.These races, however, are all foot soldiers ;
and it is only when we turn to nations of
horsemen that we meet with "the lance" such
as ' Europe recognizes. • Without exaggera-
ting it into the preposterous length of the
Macedonian "tsarina," we have elongated it
beyond the proportions of meet of the spears
of antiquity, and proved it, in our OwnLan-
Oen' hands, and in those of the famous Ben-
gal Cavalry, a terrible weapon indeed.
In Homer we read how Achilles thrust
Hector through the neck with his spear, "a
spielr,
eheavy with bronze," and the early Per -
USING THE SAME WEAPON
added a sharp spike to the butt end, so that
it could be used either way. The Greek
lance was a light missile, scarcely nine feet
long. and was the chief arm of their cavalry,
and from them was borrowed by the Roman
horseman. But the Roman spear par excel-
lence was the short, heavy pilum, which,
with the broadsword, only two feet long in
the blade, won so many victories for
the Legions and established the wisdom
of the saying that "the people
who shortened their weapons length-
ened their boundaries." The Gauls are de-
scribed as fighting with a ponderous club -like
spear, while in lllyria theuoldiers carried a
fine slight javelin which they called 'their
"spits." Auden% Germany and Spain also
had their characteristic lances, the one mars:
sive like a mace, the other a mere reed for
lightness. Thus alternating between the
heavy and the light, we find the same arm
everywhere in use by infantry, while the
oavalry carried almost invariably the longer
"lance," which still holds its own even in
these days of firearms. In India, a country
of unrivalled spearmen, the mounted lancers
have always been conspicuous in battle, and

ance, of the mounted Bedouins.
Historically, the smear is very important,
for time after time, in the annals of Asia
and Europe, it has turned the scale of battle;
how is flashes through all the courtly records
of chivalry and glitters in the story of half a
hundred nations; how romance delights in
it, the knightliest of weapons and the most
beautiful ; and how sober history itself
takes fire from these sharp steel points of
the Asiastio hosts twinkling all along the
vexed boundaries of imperial Rome, kindles
at the glinting onrush of Mapedonian and
Soythian, and brightens into the very poetry
of war when Saracen and Crusade; meat, and
