Trees from the United States, Kurope mid Australia are being systematically introduced into the nativo forests of New Zealand. In the climate of that country trees from almost anywhere will thrive, ami this fad is taken ad vantage id' lo plant the most profitable species.

The reason given for introducing for eign t t ees is t hat I ho nat i e t i ces of New Zealand are loo slow in gn.vth.

More lapld changes in animal and vegetable life aie taking place in New Zealand t han a I aunt anywhere else in the woild. The native Polynesian race is rapidly disappearing before the Ku ropean. The wild animals, native to the islands, amount to little in the contest with animals brought in, many of whicli now run wild. The streams are full of American and Murop.an trout. which grow to enormous size. The very for .sis are to be replaced, tree by tree. Im planting foreign species as the native woods di-appear.
