inthe opposition. The nursery-
men based their opposition large-

State raising trees for planting
to be distributed t<; the citizen-
ship at actual cost of production
or at a nominal pric*?. The lum-
bermen based their objections
particularly on the proposition
of a severance tax of 12'^c per

be used in the purchase of suit-
able lands on which the State
might grow new forests for suc-
ceeding generations. The lum-
bermen admitted that new for-
ests are necessary, but contend-

them should come from the gen-
eral revenues. The bill did not

The Ford Model T Onr Ton Truck with itt

iK-ccssity lor the farmer because it solves his
problem of economic transportation from the
farm to ihe city. And in farm work alone, it
will be found a great money saver as well as a
big labor .saver. I las all the merits of the Ford

strength. No extra cost in operation. We'd
like to talk it over with every farmer. Bring
