ARTICLE No. VII. EXTENSIVE FOREST PROGRAM ADOPTED BY THE BRITISH FORESTRY COMMISSION AND HOW IT IS BEING CARRIED OUT LONDON, JULY 21 Among the possible causes contri- buting to the unprecedented period of drought through which the British Isles are passing is included that of the destruction of the forests which resulted from the war. "May it not be, " asks a writer in the DAILY MAIL, "that we owe the drought from which we are suffering to the fact that most of our trees worth calling trees hav...e been felled. It seems to be an established fact that local afforestation in- creases the rainfall of the district, and the denudation of the soil, owing to the destruction of forests, in India is a fact equally well-established. Trees evaporate more water than even seas and lakes. " Be that as it may, after centuries of alternate care and neglect ranging from severe enactments by the Normans intended to preserve the forests as hunting places for royalty, down to the eighteenth century forestry boom, caused by the demand for timber for ship-building, and its subsequent de- flation when wooden ships became obsolete Great Britain was never so deeply concerned nor so active as just now in forest promotion.
