the Tree Planting State

the Tree Planting State
амер.
"штат лесных насаждений" (прозвище штата Небраска) [этим. см. цитату]

Whereas the State of Nebraska has heretofore in a popular sense been designated by names not in harmony with its history, industry or ambition; and whereas the State of Nebraska is preeminently a tree planting state, Be It Resolved by the Legislature of the State of Nebraska shall hereafter in a popular sense be known and referred to as the Tree Planting State. (G. E. Shankle, ‘American Nicknames’, ‘Laws of Nebraska’, 1895) — Поскольку неофициальные названия штата Небраска не соответствуют его истории и развитию промышленности и не отражают его чаяний, поскольку штат Небраска преимущественно штат лесных насаждений, законодательные органы штата Небраска решили, что впредь штат Небраска будет неофициально называться "Штат лесных насаждений".
