The bureau of forestry department of
agriculture , has recently reported on the
results of its Investigations in Nebraska ,
.commenced early last summer , with a
view to ascertaining the adaptability of
the stutu for forestry cultivation , and it
will bo learned with pleasure that it
was dotermiuod that forestry promo
tion in the utato woujd pay and that cin
tiuio uven the sand hills might bo made
to produce trees. Much valuable information
mation was secured concerning the nat
ural forests of the state , the rate of tree
growth and the proper species of trees
for planting. In
uinkitiK the iuvosticn-
tiou uioro than 40 counties of the state
WOPJ traversed and the information ob
tained could undoubtedly bo adapted to
-tho entire state aud should bo fairly rep *
Tosoutativo of general conditions.
The report speaks of the popular ap
proval iu the Btuto.of a plau to convert
portions of the laud iuto government
joserves to bo devoted to forestry. To
.ascertain what public land was available
the bureau has collected data from the
different laud ofllces of the state for the
_ preparation of a map showing the ex-
. ct area aud location of vacant land.
.It ia proposed that such a plan will bo
laid before the secretary of the interior
At an early date , and as it has the sup
port of state olllcors and the state's rep
roseutatives at the national capital as
well as representative citizens of the
Btnte.it is believed that the plau will be
mot with favor at Washington. The
Waahiugton correspondent ] says : "If
the reserve is established , early prepara-
Houfl will be made for planting on such
a Bcolo as will be of benefit to the entire
the investigation the
'Washington correspondent says : ' 'The
liaroau oflicials are-satisfied that if the
proper species are selected , the growing
of forest trees in Nebraska can bo made
a paying investment , especially iu the
eastern port of the state and along
streams in other parts.
"Tho agents of the bureau of forestry
.have found that the natural forests o
Hho etato tend to extend over now areas
.rapidly when protetected from flre and
grazing. This is as true of the plno in
the wobtorn part of the state as it is o
the decidnous timber in the eastern
eection.
"Tho officials of the bureau are con
rinced that tbe sandhills can be forested
S and made tolproduoe valuable timber ,
The tendency of the sandhills to increas *
in woody growth is regarded by all whi
tave studied them aa strong evldouc
of the adaptability to tlmbors Natnra
| tlmbor hon boon fonnil K > winR on thorn
In a nnmbor of places. For example ,
bothpino and cedar are growing in
typical nnndhlUit along the Niobrara
rlvor { and wherever the growth is pro
tected from fire and stock it increases
iu area year by year. At other points
in the hills oven remote from stiouns
clumps of both plno and haokborry have
boon found. In addition to this , experi
mental plantations of plno in the sand
hills have urowii with great vigor , dur
