“Any fool can destroy trees. They cannot run away; and if they could, they would still be destroyed,-chased and hunted down as long as fun or a dollar could be got out of their bark hides, branching horns, or magnificent bole backbones.

During a man's life only saplings can be grown, in the place of the old trees-tens of centuries old-that have been destroyed.”
