The state Forestry i,Ii.


The state Forestry E,H.
The State forestry bill proposes
10 establish three forest reservations
one In Pike. Monroe, Luzerne or
Iackawanna counties a second in
Sullivan, Lycoming, Clinton, Centre
or Potter counties, and the third in
Clcar6eld, Elk, Cameron, Mexican or
Forest counties.
The first will cover the headwatcrs
of the Delaware, the Lehigh and the
North Branch OF the Susquehanna /;
the second the West Branch OF the
Susquehanna, aud the third both the
streams which flow into the Susque-
hanna and those like the Allegheny
River, which eventually fow into the
Ohio and find their outlet in the
Gulf OF Mexico. A glance at the
map will show that the water ways
OF many States besides those OF
Pennsylvania will be served by the
establishment of three not extensive
forest reservations in Northern
Pennsylvania.
The bill also provides that at least
SO per cent. of the land 10 be embrace
ed in these reservations shall have
an altitude of at least 500 feet above
the sea, and it is furthermore pro-
posed that the attention OF the public
shall be called to the importance OF
this region as pnblic sanitarlum-
The discovery of the beauty and the
hsalthfulness of the mountain region
Of Pennsylvania, a discovery that
has practically been made by the
Forestry Commission, will be great
benefit to the people of the region
and to the residents Of Pennsylvania
cities. For years the hay fever vic-
tins, suffers from asthma, malaria
and other complaints have been
making long Journeys in search of
relief, when within six hou:s' ride
of Philadelphia they could find every
thing except the crowds that they
find at Bethlehen or any of the pop
ular mountain resorts.
u. The intelligence of the State will
throw ell its influence in favor of the
Forestry bill and the benefits to be
derived from ii, the protection Of
the water supplies OF cities and towns
the prevention of disastrous floods
and the preservation Of the forests,
and will cause TO be numbered
among the friends Of the measure all
those persons who must see direct
and immediate return for any outlay.

County Commissioners, Farrell,
Litzelman and Webster, have pur-
chased large wind mill which will
be placed over the we'll in the court
house yard for the purpose of pumps
ing water into the large water tank
in the court house building. This
tank will supply the heater and clos
cts with water. The mill will lie hoist
ed.thirty feet in the air and with the
every day breeze at Laporte, will be
kept constantly in motion. This
move OF the Commissioners is right,
and proper, because without good
supply Of water much damage could
be done to the heater, and to, with a
hose attached, would be of much
service in case Of fire. The mill
cost $4,000 and will he erected the
fore part of next week.

"You have succeeded" Mrs. Townley

Notwithstanding tho snccr, Mrs.
Townlcy had neither remorse nor COM
punction over her bargain. She was long
past all that. Early next morning the
rusty family carriage, whose shabbiness

lad been left unused, took her to Ridge

with surprise as unfeigned as his cour-
tesy. Dare met her with no show Of affec-
ton, yet with very lively interest. Visi-
tors OF any sort were in the nature OF
events at INTERPRETATIONS, that is,
whom it fell to her lot to entertain. Most
corners were men, whom she saw, if at all,
only at table, and with whom she rarely
exchanged more than the briefest saluta-
ton. In truth, the girl had grown up in
mammy's severe charge an uncloistered
nun, save indeed that she fed mind and

II can be done in this way: Let the
county purchase tract Of land near the
city and act the men to work on it and
pay them living wages. In three months
the land would be 30 improved that
vegetables and cereals could bs easily
grown on it. The vegetables could be
sold in the city at mo ierate prices and
the hay and grain could be used by the
city tire department, thereby saving a
big expense to the city, which now buys
oil the feed for the FIRE department
horses from private parties.
An aims house which is eurely needed
could be erected by workmen and the
county could be saved thousands Of
dollars which would otherwise go to
designing and unprincipled contractors.
Idle women conld be employed so make
clothing which the men will need, or do
other work that only woman can do.
Reasonable prices could be charged for
the products OF the farm in order that
the farm would be self-sustaining. By
this plan the genuine tramp could be
weeded out. The man who will rot
work must 60 to Jail. We cannot settle

MAKE THEM WORK.

Bakersfield Californian: Southern
California. in common with the rest of
state. is greatly exercised over the
tramp question, and the press is filed
with editorial comment and communi-
cations On the subject. What shall be
done with the tramp lie the vital ques-
tion of the hour in many commnnities.
1t 10 puzzling question. but common
sense could seem to provide the only
possible solution, which is to put them
to work. The entire etate needs roads,
bridges, canals and public improve
ments OF all kinds. Those in which
manual labor is the chief factor, such
as grading and macadamizing roads.
should be carried on largely, If not en-
tirely by the enforced labor of tramps.
These fellows live upon the community
anyhow, and make not the least return
for their subsistence. The community
has an undoubted right to force every
man jack OF them to work for his living,
and to work hard, too. We who sup
port the tramps have to work. then why
not they? Put them to work digging
roads. breaking rock, and otherwise in
carrying out Improvements which are
for the benefit OF the entire people. II
they will not work then they should not
be allowed to eat. There i, good bibli.
cal authority for such drastic treat
ment.
