The Forests of Ontario.
Mr. R. W. Phipps, Toronto, has Sent
ns the Forestry report for 1886, and in
on accompanying note he says he will
be glad to forward a copy free of charge
to any of aur readers who will forward
their address to him. It will be found
to contain : A report of the 160 town-
ships, giving the amount of wood fit for
fuel yet standing in the older settled
portions of Ontario ; a report of a care-
ful examination of two townships of On-
tario, one lying southerly and one west-
terly, with the view of obtaining abcur•
ate idea of the effects of woods, or lines
of trees, in the growing crops, and the
-climate differences observed sinCel the
--- olearing up of the country. Notie s of
the progress of forestry in other oune
tries. Results of experhnents in sow-
ing evergreens -in large quantities in On-
tario, and directions aa to how similar
results may be obtained. °ample e di-
rcetions as to raising all trees from eed,
and planting them out. Carefully pre-
pared statements as to the lumber dis-
tricts of Ontario, the value and uses of
wood here, planting in school grounds and
onArbor Day;.value of woods in preser-
ing humidity in adjacent fields,pro osed
forest reservation, management of
in cities, over clearing in Ontario,
Wiens advisable 013 Ontario farms,
ervation of birds, forest work in
.rees-
Ian-
res-
dia,
e-vergreen hedges, and many kindred
subjects, as well as valuable reports
from gentlemen .who have of late ears
started plantatione: here.
The following are the reports as given
from the counties of Huron and Perth :
Hutto -o-.
Stanley. — Coal little used ; 7,932
acres of land, and 432 farms of 100 acres
each, on the roll; allowing each acre of
bush to supply fuel for a farm for four
years, this would give .seventy three
yearsfuel.
Melifflop.—Our township, containing
52,000 acres, will scarcely average about
five acres of bush per hundred acres ;
there are a good many farms all elealred,..
and no bush.; some of my rteigh.bOrS say
that three acres per hundred is a nearer
approximation than five; there ia no
-coat used, except in the villages,coal
being cheap.
Hato—No- coal used for dornesticpur-
poses; possibly thirty years' suppIr of
wood standing.
Ashfield.—Three thousand acres bush;
coat rarely. used.
Stephen. ----Possibly twenty years'oon-
somption.
West Wawanosla.—Supply for many
years, the wood area being large.
Grey.—Fifteen years' consumption;
little coal used.
PERTH. i
North Easthope. —Would last nitany
years; in fact, where ordinary caeeis
taken Of -the- woodlands, bydproperlY en-
closing it, clearing up and removingall
fallen and. cleca.ying timber for -net,.
there ia a better opportunity give to
,young timber to grow, and it does grow
rapidly; in short„ when proper care is
-taken in a twenty acre lot, the growth
of young titnber will equal -the amount
consumed for private use. Coal is not
used extensively ; possibly •twenty per
cent,' of the farmers use it in hall stoves;
it keepa the hoose comfortable during
the loog cold winter nights, ,
Hibbert.—No coal used; with econo-
my, fifteen to twenty years' - supply.
Blanshard,—The timber in this muni-
cipality can not last more thanfifteen or
twenty years at the very most; scarcely
any forth, has more than ten acres of
ttoodleft, amd there being, no waste land
in the township, you can see that we are
near the end. Many of the farmers are
using coal iu their parlors, in order to
to make the few remaining trees last as
long as.. possible..
Logan.—in Logan, are 53,770 acres;
the amount returned to me as being
cleared, 40,..000, ares; you can add to
that,. 5,000'. acres, whieh.- is cleared and
no -t reettaned, as the farmers all tty to
return to the assessor as small a clear-
ance' as they eon to keepdown taxation,
that will leave you , about, s -ay 9,000
acres of pretty fair timbered lands. I
shealdsay that woad will be used as
fuel generally for the next fifteen or
twenty years. Out of the abate 9,000
acres, the Canada ,Company own and
hay elle their possessittn,5,800 acres, which
is very fairly timbered; and as they are
not, selling land or timber, you will see
that they have a very large supply.
Dim- is not muchcoal. used in this
township-.
Etma.--There is a sufficient supply
of second-.clas.s.„ or soft wood, for over
fifty years; that is, supposing no fire
shouldrun through it and burn it down.
First -eta -so wood is not in great supply.
in our swamp lands„ which contain the
supply of -wood, I am of the opinion that
fire will diminish the supply very rapid-
ly,as those lands are all being less or
more drained, and when dry are very
apt to be overrtm with bush fires.
Wallace„—Coal is not used in this
township; total acreage, 49,809; acres
cleared, 32,59L; acres of woodlands,.
6,675. - The farmers are - not cutting
down timber for clearing, except arnall
parcels, where there is some local cause
for it. Besides theacres of woodland
given above„ there are abont 7,000 acres
of swamp land, from which a consider-
able sapply-of fire -wood may be gathered.

."Don't Marry Him t"
" Ite is such a. fickle,inconstant fellow, you
will never be happy with him," said Esther's
friends when they learned of her eagagement to
rioting man who bore the reputation of being a
sad flirt. Esther, however, knew that her lover
hadgood qualities, and she was willing- to take
the risk. In nine cases out of ten it would
have proved. a mistake; but Esther was an un-
common girl and to every orre'e surprise Fred
made a model husband. How was it? Well,
Esther had a cheerful, sunny temper and a great
deal of tact. Then she enjoyed .perfect health
and,: was always: 80 sweet, neat and wholesome
that Fred found his own home most pleasant,
and his own wife more agreeable, than any other
being. As the year passed and he saw other
women. at Ether' s age grow siekly„ faded and
querulous,. be realized more and more that he
had "a jewel of a wife." Good health was half
the secret of Esthens success. She retained her
Vitality and good looks, bemuse she warded off
feminine weaknesses and ailments by the use of
Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescription.
A Dakota Money Lender.
—On an East -bound train from Water-
town, Dakota, the other day, was a well-
fed and comfortable -looking man, who
announced that he had been attending
to business very strictly for three or four
years, a.nd that he was then on his way
to the seashore for -the purpose of having
a little recreation. His wife was a
plump, fresh -looking young woman sev-
eralyears his junior, who, besides being.
fashionably dressed, had an air of bush
—nese about her which is met with, in the
fair sex more frequently in this part. of
the country than elsewhere.
"Yes." the tourist said, after settling
back in his seat in the smokers' section.
"I've been attending to business might
close. In fact I've had, to. I'm a bank
er. When I come outIm this countr
I had just about $4,000 clean cash
Down where I came frorn everybod
said $4,000 wasn't enough to put in you
eye. It might do to buy a home wit
or get a team, but as far as busines
was concerned it was only an aggrava
tion. I had heard something -abou
Dakota, and I made up my mind that
would show some of the, smart me
whether $4,000 capital was good for any
thing or not. I went West along wit
the emigrants, set up a little office, pu
out a sign 'money to loan,' and sat dow
to await custom.
"I put my money dUt in small sums
principally. A settler would come in
and ask fot $50 or $100. I would- as
him what he had, Well he might hay
an equity in his hind, or he would-711ov
some household furniture, farm machin
ery or horses and wagons. I would
letehirn have the mon4 and take a mort
gage on all that he had, deducting my
interest at ten, twelve or fourteen pe
cent., in advance._ Plenty of them
would want a little money for a month
Or two months, and I always sock it to
these fellows. I've had $10 for the use
of $50 for thirty days many a time. A
good many of the settlers were Scar
dinavians, and I could not talk to them
in their own language, nor could they
speak to me in mine, bat I got up a
printed form which they could under
stand, andtin that way we managed to
do business very satisfactorily.
"It requires a very clear head and
good judgment to do a banking business
out here. Particularly is this true in a
new settlement in the winter time. I've
changed my location three times since
I've been in Dakota. After a township
has been settled awhile it is not much
good to men in my line. .. When I have
moved I have always gone into _new
country. The people get along first-rate
for a few month, but the first winter
fetches them. They have to have money
and a man who stands by ready to help
them is a sort of public benefactor. I
have had at one time and another mort
gages on the stuff belonging to several
hundred farmers, sometimes taking mort
gages for sums as small as $10 or $20.
In fact they are the ones that pay, as
men who give them ' are- generally on
their last legs, and about all you haye to
do is to wait awhile and then gather in
their stuff.
"I have come into possession of some
of the best farming land in Dakota in
this way. A man might get hard up.
and come to me for $100 for six months.
When the time was up he would be
worse off than he was before, and by
stretching the mortgage a little I would
give him another hundred, ehe whole
to be paid in three months. Then he
might come around and ' make a, poor
mouth, and ask for an extension, and
all that, but you see that wasn't what I
was out there for. My capital wasn't
vgry large. and I had to keep it moving,
and then, too, there is no sentiment in
business. I'd have to take the farm.
In some such cases I have sold it back
to the man at 12 or 15 per cent. interest,
on condition that he would pay me
monthly, but he usually getst tired of
that.
y would never have got that farm if I
- hadn't taken her along with it.

"Only the other day I was :thinking
about how rnucloI had made out here,
and how do you suppose I stand? Well
sir I have doubled my money, and Iown
ten or twelve as good farms ae there
are in Dakota. They need improving
of course but the land is all there, you
bet. Have any trouble with the set -
tiers? Oh yes; some, once in a, while.
They are a poor lot, and sometimes they
come around and beg pretty hard, but
you've got to shut down. you can't
run a free dispensary and a bank at the
same time. I'm out there to .help those
who help -themselves, do you • see?
When they °oet where they can't do that
why then it helps me. Every once in • a
while men in my business run across
Down East folks who get homesick out
here. Then you've got a snap. , Take
a Down Easter who is home -sick and
poor and discouraged, and he'll give you
his farm for money enough, to get back
East. I have only struck two Suet.'
cases, but I know bankers who have
had several. There is nothing like
being around when a little 1 money is
needed. I tell you I have seen_the time
oet here when my.$4,000 looked likea
million to the majority -of the people.
"Yes, I have had to take a' good deal
of junk in my day, some of it stuff that
I couldn't give away, but I teok it just
the same. It wouldn't be business to
let go of anything that you mice got
hold of. Probably the funniest bargain
that I ever made, though, was the one
that brought me that youtig lady in
there, my wife. She was out here 'farm-
ing' as she calls it, though she didn't
know a harrow from a feed cutter. She
• was a brave girl, though. She had a
•little money and paid for her farm, but
she had to go into debt for her house
and machinery. That's where I got in
my work. When it came time for her
to make a payment she was short, and
so she came to me for money. I gave it
to her and took a mortgage on all her
property, real and personal. That is
the kind of deals I like to make. If you
can get one of those girls for a customer,
you are liable to geto, farm after a while
dirt cheap.
Well when the note ,fell due she
couldn't pay it, and I gave her an ex-
tension at twelve per cent. I usually get
fifteen in such emergencies, but I took
pity on her. Then that came due and
she had no money, and so I foreclosed
on her. That rnade her mad. She
wanted to make a compromise, and
after a while I patched up a bargain
with her, but as I repented of it I told
her the place and all the things would
heve to be sold. A friend of mine bid
them in for about the sum of my claim,
and she got notice to leave, which she
didn't do. Not much. She just stayed
-
there, and one day when I rode out to
see if she had gone, she opened on me
with a rifle, calling me an old shark and
thief. When I tried to get some help
from the people round about they
intimated that they would see me hang-
ed first, and, by thunder the girl had
me. She was in possession, and there
wasn't Iasi enough in the county then to
get her out.
So after awhile I came to the con
elusion that I would have to reason with
her. It was getting to be about time
for me to climb out of there any way,
but I couldn't bear the idea of losing
the farm. Then I got a man to negot-
iate with her for an interview, and after
awhile I called on her, making myself as
agreeable as possible. The upshot of it
was that I askecrher to marry me, and
she consented. I'm pretty well satisfied
with the deal, or to tell you the truth I
