The cleaning out of old dredge drains by the use of dynamite is be­coming more practical every day. On the Cohoctah-Conway-Marion outlet, between the Henry and John Teller farms, will be a scene of excitement when a stretch of 85 rods through a marsh will be opened up and cleaned with the use of 50 per cent straight nitro-glyeerine dynamite. Friday, the 27th, is the day set for the big shoot­ing. The largest shot will take place at two o'clock, fast time, and most of the activities can be viewed from the

Drain Commissioner R. K. Wriggles-worth, after consulting experienced parties, is satisfied that this is the most practical method. The place of action is situated three miles southwest of Cohoctah station on the Byron road and about eight miles northeast of Howell. County Agent C. L. Boland-er is cooperating with Mr. Wriggles-worth in laying out the project.

Special Cash Prices All This Week

According to a statement just issued by Edsel B. Ford, President of the Ford Motor Company, Detroit, a gen-ernl reduction of SfiO.OO a car has been made in the prices of Ford Model-T cars and the Ford 1 Ton Truck, effec­tive October 17.

"The revision in prices," said Mr. Ford, "is the result of the increased volume of business which our company has enjoyed during the present year, and also, to the fact that we now own and operate many of our own sources of raw material, which enables us to continue increasing the quality of our product and at the same time keep the price so low that Ford cars are in reach of everybody.

•'Our production for 1922 is already in excess of a million, which has been an important factor in bringing down costs. Our present daily output is av­eraging better than 5,000 Cars and Trucks, which means a complete Ford Car or Truck every 5 1-2 seconds of each eight-hour working day. It is in anticipation of this continued demand that price adjustments are again being made in order to keep in effect the policy of selling Ford products at the lowest price consistent with quality.

"Quality, as usual," said Mr. Ford, "will continue to be a prime consider-ation in the building of Ford Cars. As our business has increased we have constantly increased our equipment and manufacturing facilities, so that this price reduction merely reflects the progressive methods which come as a result of increased volume.

"This reduction, which is the sixth since March 1920, brings the price of the Ford Touring Car from $575, the price in effect* early In 1920, to the present extremely low level oi ¢298, which Is nearly 50 per cent less. Cor­responding redactions have been made on all other types.

The new prices by types follow: Touring , $298 Roadster 269

Lansing—Distribution of applica­tion blanks for coal dealers licenses was begun by State Fuel Administra­tor W. W. Potter last week, through the county fuel administrators follow- L f ^ / ^ f f i ing the signing of the coal regulation bill by Governor Groesbeck.

From the form of application blanks, two purposes will be served by the licensing of coal dealers as provided in the fuel regulation act, first, the application blank is in the form of a questionnaire, which, when filled out, will give the state fuel ad­ministrator accurate information as to the quantity of coal sold in the state through dealers last year, the quantity sold thus far in 1922, and tne relative quantities Bold to domestic, industrial-and utility consumers.

The second purpose the application blank will serve, is to provide infor­mation concerning the leogth of time each dealer has been in business, whether he has an established yard and equipment for handling coal and the extent of his facilities for the dis­tribution of fuel in his locality. These facts, it is said, will draw the line Sharply between the legitimate, established fuel company, whether wholesale or retail and the, fly-by-night broker who goes into the fuel business only during shortages or other unsettled conditions of the mar­kets to speculate ln coal for the high prices that may be had.

According to Mr. Potter, It is those who enter the business purely as a speculative proposition, during an emergency, that work the most havoc with the fuel market, and bring hard­ships upon dealers and consumers alike.

It is pointed out that, during the war, much speculation in coal by un­reliable persons was carried on with the result that mines were never paid for whole trainloads of coal shipped and artificial increases in prices were brought about.

A great many dealers, who ordered coal through these brokers, ln good faith, contracting for it at the going market price, were forced to go into the market and buy at an Increased price when they discovered that the coal they had ordered had been Bold by the brokers to persons who had

MISS LULU BETT ~ *

REAL HUMAN BEINGS

To write that Zona Gale'a "Miss Lulu Bett" is good Teadlng Is like "carrying coals to Newcastle"— only more so. As almost every­body knows, the story la ao unmis­takably real American stuff that there was an Immediate demand for Its dramatisation. With little change it was put on the stage. The play was as successful aa the book. It took the Pulitzer prise for 1S21. The Judges declared It the "beat American play of the year, tending to increase the educational value of the stage and raise the standards of manners and morals."

"Mies, Lulu Bett" depicts small­town life in the Middle West with starlt realism. Her characters are everyday human people. The life Is everyday life. The author haa achieved a triumph In that she haa given us stark realism which is free from the grojtaness with which it Is popularly associated. And the story Is good reading beside—don't forget that!

1 April.

The Deacons were at supper. In the middle of the table was a small, appealing tulip plant, looking as any­thing would look whose sun was a gas Jet. This Jet was high above the table and flared with a sound.

"Better turn down the gas Jest a tittle," Mr. Deacon said, and stretched up to do so. He made this Joke almost ••very night. He seldom spoke as a man speaks who has something to say, hut as a man who makes something to say.

"Well, what have we on the festive board tonight?" he questioned, eyeing it. "Festive" was his favorite adjec­tive. "Beautiful," too. In October he might be heard asking: "Where's my beautiful fall coat?"

"We have creamed salmon," replied Mrs. Deacon gently. "On toast," she added, with a scrupulous regard for (he whole truth. Why she should sny this so gently no one can tell. She says everything gently. Her "Could you leave me another bottle of milk this morning?" would wring a milk­man's heart.

"Well, now, let lis see," said Mr. Deacon, and attacked the principal dish benignly. "Let us see," he added, as he served.

"I don'f want any," said Monona. The child Monona was seated upon

s book and a cushion, so that her little triangle of nose rose adultly above her plate. Her remark pro­duced precisely the effect for which she had passionately hoped.

"What's this?" cried Mr. Deacon "No salmon?"

"No," Sjftid Monona, inflected up, chin pertly pointed. She felt bet power, discarded her "sir"

"Oh now, Pet!" from Mrs. Deacon on three notes. "You liked it before."

"T don't want any." said Monona, is precisely her originn! tone.

"Just a little? A very little?" Mr. Deacon persuaded, spoon dripping.

The child Monona made iter lips thin and straight and shook her head until her straight hair flapped In her eyes on either side. Mr. Deacon's eyes anx­iously consulted his wife's eyes. What Is this? Their progeny will not eat? What can he supplied?

"Some bread ard milk!" cried Mrs. Deacon brightly, exploding on "bread." One wondered how she thought of It.

"No," said Monona, inflection up, chin the same. She was affecting In­difference to this scene. In which her soul delighted. She twisted her head, hit her lips unconcernedly, and turned her eyes to the remote.

There emerged from the fringe of things, where she perpetually hovered, Mrs. Dencon's older sister, Lulu Bett, who was "making her home with us." And that was precisely the case. They were hot making her a home, good­ness knows. Lulu was the family beast of burden.

"Can't I make her a little milk toast?" she asked Mrs. Deacon.

Mrs. Deacon hesitated, not with compunction at accepting Lola's offer, pot diplomatically to lure Monona. But she hesitated habitually, by na­ture, as another is by nature vivacious or brunette.

"Tes!" shouted the child Monona. The tension relaxed. Mrs. Deacon

assented. Lulu went to the kitchen. Mr. Deacon served on. Something of this scene was enacted every day. For Monona the drama never lost Its zest. It sever occurred to the others to let her sit without eating, once, as a cure-all. The Deacons were devoted par­ents and the child Monona was deli­cate. She had a white, grave face, white hair, white eyebrows, white lushes. She was sullen, anemic. They let her wear rings. She "toed m." The poor child was the late birth of a late marriage and the principal Joy which she hnd provided for them 'thus far was the pleased reflection that they had produced her at all.

"Where's your mother, Ina?" Mr. Dencon Inquired. "Isn't she coming to her supper?"

"Thntrlm," said Mrs. Deacon softly. ••Oh, ho." said he. and said no more. The temper of Mrs. Bett. who also

lived with them, hnd days of high vi­bration when she absented herself from the table as a kind of self-indulgence, and no one cou^d persuade her to food. "Tantrlms." they called these ofvasions.

" linked pnratoes." said Mr. Dencon. "Tl :ii's good--that's ;*ood. TIIP baked purr'" contains more nourishment i """-« pret ired In uny otbar

way. The nourishment is next to the skin. Roasting m a i n s it."

"That's what 1 always think," said his wife pleasantly.

For fifteen years they had agreed about this.

They ate, in the indecent silence of first savoring food. A delicate crunch­ing of crusts, an odor of baked-potato shells, the slip and .touch of the silver.

"Num. num, nummy-num I" sang the child Monona loudly, and was hushed by both parents In simultaneous excla­mation which rivaled this lyric out­burst. They were alone at table. Dl, daughter of a wife early lost to XL-. Deacon, was not there. Di was hardly ever there. She was at that age. That age, In Warbleton.

A clock struck the half hour. "It's curious," Mr. Deacon observed,

"how that clock loses. It must be fully quarter to." He consulted his watch. "It is quarter to!" he exclaimed with satisfaction. "I'm pretty good at guessing time."

"I've noticed that!" cried his Ina. "Last night, It was only twenty-

three to, when the half hour struck," he reminded her.

"Twenty-one, I thought." She was tentative, regarded him with arched eyebrows, nmstlcation suspended.

This point was never to be settled. The colloquy was interrupted by the child Monona, whining for her toast. And the doorbell rang.

"Dear me!" said Mr. Deacon. "What can anybody be thinking of to call just at mealtime?"

He trod the hull, tlung open the street door. Mrs. Deacon listened. Lulu, coining in with the toast, was warned to Silence by an uplifted fin­ger. She deposited the toast, tiptoed to her chair. A withered baked po­tato and cold creamed salmon were on her plate. The child Monona ate with shocking appreciation. Nothing ciuild lie made of the voices In the bull. But Mrs. Bett's door was heard softly to unlatch. She, too, was lis­tening.

A ripple of excitement was caused in the dining room when Mr. Deucon was divined to usher some one to the parlor. Mr. Deacon would speak with this visitor in a few moments and now returned to Ins table. It was notable how slight a thing would give him a sense of self-importance. Now he felt himself a man of affairs, could not even have a quiet supper with his family without the outside world de­manding him. He waved his hand to indicate it was nothing which they should know anything about, resumed his seat, served himself to a second spoon of salmon and remarked, "More

roast duck, anybody?" in a loud voice and with a slow wink at his wife. That 'ady at first looked blank, as she always did In the presence of any hu­mor couched with the least Indirec­tion, and then drew back her chin and caught her lower lip In her gold-filled teeth. This was her conjugal rebuk­ing.

Swedenborg always uses "conju-glal." And really this sounds more married. It should be used with ref erence to the Deacons. No one was ever more married than they—at least Mr. Deacon. He made little con­jugal Jokes In the presence of Lulu who now, completely unnerved by the habit, suspected them where they did not exist, feured ^urklojf entendre in the most innocent comments, and be­came more tense every hour of her life.

And now the eye of the master of the house fell for tfie first time upon the yellow tulip In the center of his table.

"Well, well !" he said. "Whnfs this?" Ina Deacon produced, fleetly, an un­

looked-for dimple. "Have you been buying flowers?"

the master inquired. 4

"Ask Lulu." said Mis. Deacon. He turned his attention full upon

Lulu. "Suitors?" he Inquired, and his tips

left their places to form a sort oi ruff about the word.

Lulu flushed, and her eyes and their very brows appealed.

"It win a quarter," she amid. "There'll be five flowers."

"You bougtft i t r "Yea. ^ There'll be five—that's s

nickel apiece." His tone was as methodical as if he

had been talking about the bread. "Yet we give you a home on the

supposition that you have no money to spend, even for necessities."

His voice, without resonance, cleft air, thought,, spirit, and even flesh.

Mrs. Deacon, indeterminately feel­ing her guilt In having let loose the dogs of her husband upon Lu[u, In­terposed: "Well, bui, Herbert—Lulu isn't strong enough to work. What's the use . . . "

She dwindled. For years the fiction' had been sustained that Lulu, the family beast of burden, was not strong enough to work unywhere else.

"The Justice business—"said Dwlght Herbert Deacon—he was a justice of the peace—"and the den/al profes­sion—" he'was also a dentist—"do not warrant the purchase of spring flow­ers In my home."

"Well, but, Herbert—" It was his wife again.

"No more," he cried briefly, with a slight bend of his head. "Lulu meant no harm," he added, and smiled at Lulu.

There was a moment's silence into which Monona injected a loud "Num, num, numniy-nuin," as If she were the burden of an Elizabethan lyric. She seemed to close the incident. But tiie burden was cut off untimely. There was, her father reminded her porten­tously, company In the parlor.

"When the bell rang, I was so afraid something had happened to Di," said Ina, sighing.

"Let's see." said Dl's father. "Where Is little daughter t night?"

He must have known that she was at Jenny Plow's at a tea party, for at noon they had tal1 ed of nothing e l se : hut this was his way. And Ina played his game, always. She informed him, dutifully.

*Oh. ho," said he. absently. How couid he be expectcV to keep his mind on these domesi'c trifles.

"We told you that this noon." said Lulu. He frowned, disregarded her. Lulu hnd no delicacy.

"How much is yalmon the can now?" he Inquired" abruptly—this was one of his forms of speech, the can, the pound, tlie ford.

His partner supplied this informa­tion with admirable promptness. I.arge size, small size, present price, former price—she had them all.

"Dear me," said Mr. Deacon. "That Is very nearly salmoney, Isn't It?"

"Herbert!" his Ina admonished, In gentle, gentle reproach. Mr. Deacon punned, organically. In talk he often fell silent and then asked some ques­tion, schemed to permit his voice to flourish. Mrs. Deacon's return was always automatic: "Herbert!"

"Whose-Bert?" he said to this. "I thought I was your Bert."

She shook her little head. "You are a case," she told him. He beamed upon her. It was his intention to be a case.

Lulu ventured in upon this pleas­antry, and cleared her throat. She was not hoarse, but she was always clearing her throat.

"The butter Is nbout all gone," she observed. "Shall I wait for the butter-woman or get some creamery?"

Mr. Deacon now felt his little Jocu­larity lost before a wall of the matter of fact. He was not pleased. He saw himself as the light of his home, bringer of brightness, tightener-of dull hours. It was a pretty role. He In­sisted upon It. To maintain It Intact, it was necessary to turn upon their sister with concentrated irritation.

"Kindly settle these matters with­out bringing them to my attention at mealtime," he said icily.

Lulu flushed and was silent. She was an olive woman, once handsome, now with flat, bluish shadows under her wistful eyes. And If only she would took at her brother Herbert and lay something. But she looked at her plate.

"T want some honey," shouted the child, Monona.

"There Isn't any, Pet." said Lulu. "I wnnt some." said Monona, eyeing

her stonily. But he found that her , hair-ribbon could be pulled forward to meet her lips, and she emhartked on the biting of an end. Lulu departed for some sauce und cake. It was apple sauce. Mr. Deacon remarked that the apples were almost as good as If he had stolen them. He wag giving the impression that he was an irrepressible fellow. He was eating very slowly. It added pleasantly to hi* sense of importance to feel that «ome one, there in the parlor, was wslting his motion.

Canada is the world's greatest producer of wheat — second only to the United States—yet only about 12% of the tillable area has been worked. Yields of 40 bushels of wheat per acre are not uncommon. Oats have given aa high as 100 bushels per acre, while 40 to 50 bushels per acre are ordinary yields; barley and rye in like proportion. Cattle and horses thrive on the native grasses which grow abundantly and corn and sunflower culture are highly successful.

By JAMES P. HORNADAY Wushmgton .—The Hard ing adminis­

trat ion is uuw fairly well convinced that the people of tlie United S la t e s a r e looking with more favor on tlie lA'Ugue or Nat ions than at any t ime t>ime the sena te refused to ratify the Versailles t rea ty . F u r t h e r m o r e the adminis t ra t ion has about reached the conclusion that unless it can propos. u subs t i tu te for the league which will be acceptable to the people, the United S ta tes is very apt to ;:<> into tlie exist ina ' league. T h e Pres ident ' s cabinet, it can l>e asser ted author i ta t ively , is Low unanimously of the opinion that the United S ta tes cannot pursue a pol­icy of isolation. President Hard ing has never advocated , such a policy. Un the other hand, he has, since the day-he v as nominated for President , ad­vocated rtie adoption of a subs t i tu te for the League of Nations.

The adminis t ra t ion now has under consideration a t en ta t ive course of ac­tion. The proposals a r e :

(1) An Internat ional economic con­ference cal.ed by tlie United S ta tes to follow the European economic confer­ence which h a s been called to meet in Brussels on December 1.

(2) A conference on limitation of a r m a m e n t s in Europe and on Atlant ic quest ions.

The s i tuat ion with respect to the t reat ies agreed on at the Washington conference on the limitation of arma­ments and on Pacitic and Far Eas te rn Questions is influencing tlie adminis­t ra t ion to give ser ious considerat ion to these two proposals . Almost a year has gone by since the Washington con­ference met, ami tint one of tike t r ea t i e s agreed on In that conference has been ratified by all the nat ions par t ies to it. Th is means that not one ol the t rea t ies produced by the conference is In force today

Wha t the Proposals Mean. The two s teps that have been pro­

posed, if taken, it is said in adminis­t rat ion quar te r s , would presumably bring about Immediate ratification of all the Washington conference t rea t ies . The llrst step proposed Is not regard­ed as of far-reaching importance, though the feeling is undoubtedly growing in the United S ta tes—as was Indicated by the action of the bankers of the country in session at New York—that the government min t assist , in a more direct way than it lifts thus far assist­ed, in restoring economic and financial conditions in Europe. The inside talk here is that if the United S ta tes should decide to Issue a call for an interna­tional economic conference, this gov­ernment would express the hope that the conference be held In this country, but the place of meeting would, of course, be left to the countr ies In­vited to par t ic ipate ,

The second proposal under consid­eration is for another in ternat ional conference on the limitation of arma­ments and for the discussion of o ther quest ions which would be pa t t e rned after the Washington conference on . tlie limitation of a rmamen t s . Behind this second proposal Is a plan for a | t rea ty similar to tlie four-power t rea ty which came out of the Washington conference, and to which the United Sta tes , ( i reat Bri ta in , J apan , and France a re par t ies , and which is still unratified.

Might Bring Five-PowejftTreaty. The pre l iminary talk In connection

with the proposed second conference on the limitation is that it might pro­duce a five-power t r ea ty to which t he United Sta tes . Great Bri tain, France , Germany and Italy would be par t ies . If such a conference should be held, and If such a t r ea ty should be actual­ly proposed in t h e conference, several o ther European nat ions, It is pointed out, might be asked to become par t ies to the treaty. But the present though I here is tha t it should be a five-powei t rea ty .

The a rgument in suppor t of this pro­gram i s : (1) Tha t it would insure the ratification ami appl icat ion of the four-power t reaty adopted at the Washing­ton conference, and (2) would, if car­ried forward In go-;d faith. Insum pence in Europe for a long period of years . Public men who have been con­sulted about t ins t en ta t ive program arc very confident that if the United Sta tes . Great Bri ta in , France . Ger­many and Italy should bind them­selves together in what might be called a minor League of Nat i 'ms to pre­serve the peace of Europe, they would exercise a powerful and probably last­ing Influence for food;

T h e experience of the Sta te depar t ­ment during the last two weeks In connection with the fiareup in the Near East has served to convince mem­bers of the adminis t ra t ion . If they needed any convincing, tlmt the United S tu tes cannot afford to a t t empt to play a lone hand In t h e game of interna­tional affairs.

New S t a m p s Coming Out. The public a lways fakes keen

interest In a new postage s t amp. Within trip next two month* an ent i re iviw series will have been

placed on Mile. The o t w l l*ceo! s tamp of peacock blue color with the por­t ra i t of Ru the r fo rd B . Hayes w a s placed on sale October 4, at F r e m o n t Ohio, commemora t ing the one hun­dred th auniversa,**? of the former pres ident ' s b i r th , T h i s was the first s t amp to be placed ^ou ' s a l e of the complete new series p lanned by the Post Office depa r tmen t . T h e new o> cent Roosevelt s t a m p will be uvailubie, Mr. Glover ot the Post Office depar t ­ment s ta tes , on October 27, the birth-duy of Theodore Roosevelt. One rea­son for the selection of Roosevel t ' s por t ra i t for the 5-ct ot s t amp was the fact that , this denominat ion is most widely used on le t te rs to foreign countr ies , where the colonel's fame is believed to be grea te r than tha t of any other Pres ident .

It is planned to place on sale the new 50-cent s t amp with u pic ture of the Arlington Amphi thea ter - and the tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Armistice day, November 11. The re­maining denominat ions of the ser ies will be put out as promptly as tlie engraving and prepara t ion of the dates a re completed.

In the new series of denominat ions , rhe 13-cent s t a m p bus been dropped. and 14-eent and 25 cent s t amps have been added. The 13-cent s t amp was found useful only for payment of com­bined postage and registrat ion fee dur­ing the war period when the ord inary let ter postage ra te was 3 cents. T h e r e is u demand for the added i tems In parcel post business, 'especial ly for use by lar^e mail-order concerns. T h e depar tment Is urgin pos tmas te r s to encourage tlie use of ,the smallest num­ber of s tamps that will cover the post­age on any parcel, s a s to save both in cost of manufac ture ami in the work of canceling and examining s tamps after t he parcel has been mailed.

Here Is the New Series. The por t ra i t s and other devices for

the en t i re new aeries have been finally decided on. They are as fol lows:

1-eeiit, Frankl in ; 2-cent, Washington ; 3-cent, Lincoln; 4-cent, Martha Wash­ington ; 5-cent, Roosevel t ; 6-cent, Gar­field; 7-cent, McKlnley; 8-cent. G r a n t ; 9 cent, Jefferson; 10-cent, Monroe ; 11-cent, H a y e s ; 12-cent. Cleveland; 14-cent, I n d i a n ; 15-cent, S ta tue of Liber­t y ; 20-cent, Yosemlte ; 25-cent. N i a g a r a ; 30-cent. Buffalo; 50-cent, Arlington A m p h i t h e a t r e ; $1. Lincoln Memor ia l ; $2, Capi to l ; $5, America.

The subjects of the designs have not beet) selected without careful re­gard for their suitabil i ty, according to the depar tment ' s s ta tement . The por­t ra i t s Include Washington and Jeffer­son as fa thers of our Ins t i tu t ions ; Frankl in as the first pos tmaster gen­eral ; Mar tha Washington to commem­ora te the pioneer womanhood of Amer ica ; Lincoln, Garfield and Mc­Klnley as " the mar tyr P r e s iden t s " ; Monroe to mark the foreign policy as­sociated with his name, with Grant , Hayes. Cleveland and Roosevelt, carry­ing on the historical line to a recent day.

Reasons for the Designs. "The devices adopted for the higher

denominat ions." Mr. Glover says , this New World are represented hy the "s tand for America as It might be viewed hy a newly arr iving immigrant . The s t ranger ' s first thought Is of the primitive dwel lers In the land, the aboriginal Indians, but on arrival the Ing forms of animal life by the Buffa-Yosemlte and Niagara , and its differ

In accordance wit ' ins t ruct ions of Pos tmas te r General Work that the new series of s tamps be entirely dis t inct ive and outs tanding in so far as numera l s and subjects a re concerned, a s well a s having dist inctive and prominenl colors whereby the postal c lerks may promptly detect short-paid mall mat­ter. Director Louis A.

Lubricat ing Loose Pulleys, A correspondent of American Ma­

chinist, having noted the usual diffi­culty encountered in keeping loose pulleys lubricated, makes two sugges­tions of value. One involves the drill­ing of holes through the hushing, and the fllllrg of these with a mixture of graphi te and cylinder oil. The other is to drill several holes along the In­side surface of the hub. parallel to the axis, and break ing through into tlie bore. In these are fitted soft pine plugs, soaked in oil, In such a way as to res tore the Inner bearing sur­face of the huh. Pul leys rendered self-hihrlcnting In e i ther of these ways will give no trouble for a period of years , it is s ta ted.

The woman addressed sa id : "Tha t Is my bro ther j-alMng for me."

Well, the less said the better, but I'll he more careful In future.—Ex« chun^e.

DWINDLING FORESTS ARE FORCING MUCH DECREASED USE OF LUMBER

The Exhaustion of Our Timber Supply is Coming About Because We Have Failed to Use Our Timber-Growing L and.

(Prepared by the United Htatei Depart meet of Agriculture.)

If the rood consumed by each man. woman, and child were reduced by one-third, the pinch of hunger would soon be felt and the cry of famine un­doubtedly raised.

Tet substitute the word "wood" for "food" and you have exactly what has happened in the use of lumber. The per capita consumption has dropped from 500 board feet in 1900 to 31G board feet in 1920, says the forest service, United States Department of Agriculture.

This decreasing use of a funda­mental commodity, according to forest experts, is not a result of decreasing needs but a result of forest exhaustion. It la not being accomplished without economic hardship or without curtail­ment of Industrial expansion. It Is not a temporary condition that will auto­matically adjust itself, for even at this reduced rate of consumption we are still cutting our forests more than four times as fast as they grow. The situa­tion proclaims, according to the forest service, that if we are to remain a na­tion of timber users, we must become a nation of timber growers.

Reached Highest Point In 1906. In 1906, when American lumber pro­

duction reached Its highest point, the average per capita consumption of lumber in the United States was ap­proximately 500 board feet. Since that time the per capita consumption has rapidly and consistently decreased until In 1920 fhe average citizen used approximately 316 board feet. This 1B a reduction of 37 per cent In 13 years, or nearly 3 per cent a year. Should this decrease continue at its present rate, by 1940 the downward sweep of cohsurnption would approach zero'. This, of course, will not happen. The average consumption will ultimately reach a fairly stable level, which will depend mainly upon the extent to which our devastated forests are made again productive.

The consumption of lumber Is not evenly distributed. Previous studies Indicated that the states of the Pacific Northwest, now the last great strong­hold of big lumbering operations, had a much higher per capita consumption than those of other regions, but the present figures are the first to give Information for all states upon the same basis. Naturally the greatest per capita consumption occurs where wood

is plentiful and the population is rela­tively small. In Washington and Ore­gon the consumption appears to be be­tween 900 and 1,000 board feet an­nually per person.

Next come California, Montana, Ida­ho, arid Wyoming, where the rate of consumption Is from 600 to 800 feet per person annually. In these states timber is relatively plentiful as com­pared with the density of the popula­tion, and a very considerable expan­sion has been taking place in the development of farms and other nat­ural resources.

The group next lower in per capita consumption Includes the Lake states, and sweeps southwesterly across the prnlrie states through Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. In this group the annual consumption Is between 300 and 000 feet, board measure.

Use Leas Than 300 Feet. Practically all the remaining states

fall Into a class In which the annual consumption is 200 to 300 feet. This group extends in a broad belt from Texas along the southern and eastern Atlantic coast to Cape Cod. Mass. It also lnclu "es North Dakota, Iowa, Utah, and Nevada.

The lowest consumption of all is in Rhode Island, the District of Columbia, South Carolina, and Georgia, in which the average consumption Is rated be­tween 100 and 200 feet per year. In the District of Columbia there is an extreme situation In density of popula­tion. No lumber is produced, there is little farming or manufacturing, and the entire population consists of urban dwellers in the city of Washington who live mainly In houses of brick and •tone and require relatively little lum­ber. All the lumber used In the Dis­trict of Columbia is imported from other states, just as it Is in some of the non-timbered prairie states.

In general, the older and more dense­ly settled states show the lowest aver­age consumption. The states charac­terized by heavy agricultural opera­tions come next, and the greatest use per individual Is Indicated in those states where there is still considerable timber and where the extension of home building is proceeding at a rapid rate, using the abundant material pro­vided by the forests. The states are going through an evolutionary process, building first of lumber and later of more costly materials as the forests recede before fire and axe.

A Reminder. A man was uliaust frantic with

toothache. The only other person in the room was his pompous, pedantic, matter-of-fact aunt.

Presently the man burst out: MOh, 1 wish to goodness people were

born without teeth." His aunt glanced rv from her paper. "A moment's consideration, my dear

Alfred," ahe said, "will remind you that that Is precisely what does happen."

And she went on reading.

Evidently Christiana, An American family living In China

recently hired two servants from Nun-king, a missionary center. According­ly, the new servants were Christians. Another Chinese servant in the family discovered the newcomers' religion and reported the fact to his mistress. Asked how he knew the new boys were Chris­tians, he said: "Oh, they know all about God, Jesus Christ, and Santa Claua."

If You Need a Medicine You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why it is thai so many products that are ex­tensively advertised, all at once drop oat of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason is plain—the article did not fulfill the promisee of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited to those who are in need of it.

A prominent druggist says, "Take for example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent re­sults, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has so large a sale."

According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-RootJ is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfills al­most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments, corrects uri­nary troubles and neutralize* the uric acid which causes rheumatism.

You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by parcel post. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., and enclose ten cents; also mention this paper. Large and medium size bottles for sale at all drug stores.—Advertisement.

Could There Be a Fish Famine? How muny fish are In the sea? Are

Thompson of the California Fish and Uame commission has told the Ameri­can ANSoclatlon for the Advancement of Science.

Mr. Thompson thinks we are taking lofig chances by not finding out and wants biologists to get accurate figures on the subject. We cannot continue to double the catch every ten yeurs without reaching the limit some time, and we ought to know the reasons why many ilsh come to net one time and not so many tne next. The weath­er and ocean conditions have a tre­mendous effect as well as other natural changes which have nothing to do with over-fishing.

There are numerous reasons why the first calf from a heifer may be more valuable than succeeding calves, and one of these reasons is that the sole duties of a heifer sre to grow and nourish her first-born, while her duties of future years Include the production of milk and butterfat and these take toll from her and the food she receives In proportion to the magnitude of her production.

I have known many laboring men that have got good estates in this Valley of Humiliation, for "God re-slsteth the proud, hut glveth grace to the humble."—John Bunyan.

Lono Survivor. 'That sailor must have had a wild

night; he looks a wreck." 'Trobably struck a hidden bar."

How to meet trouble Is the real problem of life. Qood fortune takes care of Itself.

The joys of meeting pay for the pangs of parting.

Eternal vigilance Is not eg!y ths price of liberty but of about everythlnf worth having.

We are as rich or as poar s i minds make ns.
