· AFFORESTATION. The subject of afforestation is deeply interesting. The admir able work performed in Hong- kong in thisconnection has proved boneficial to the health of the colony, not to speak of its in-. lucuce on rainfall and soil pre servation. When the British took over the island of Hungkong, its slopes aro ́anid to have becii as barren as the brown rangos on the mainland, whilo, in striking contrast, one of the most attractive fentures of Hongkong to-day is the luxurianco of its vegetation at all Ecasons of the year. Idoney in no stiuted measure has boon exponded towards this end; and: fia will be generally conceded that effective end scientific alforesta tion has justified the outlay As the art of forestry becomes better understood, and more widely. practised, the benefits will un*; doubtedly be multiplied many, fold. China is as far behind as any nation can be in this respect. Countless generations have sacri ficed the nation's wealth of timbor to the needs of the moment with out due rogard to the future.
