The three great forest reservations RS
practically all the unappropriated lands
within its borders which are of any pres
ent value. ard leave little except the arid
lands stlli open for entry. The theory on
which forest reservations ara made is
not alone the preservation OF the timber

scrva,ion Of the rainfall in the timbered
mountain slopes Il is not disputed that
when the mountain slopes are entirely
denuded OF timber. the rains. instead Of
sinking into the soil. run or into the
water courses: and this IS also true Of
the melting snow. Consequently the de-
nuding OF the mountain slopes results IN
foods In the rivers during the heavy
rains ~ the fall. ana when the snow is
melting n the spring. and also results IN
extreme low water In the same streams

MARRIED WOMEN INELIGIBLE.
SCHOOL BOARD OF CAROLINE
COUNTY. REFUSES TO CONFIRM
AN APPOINTMENT.

Denton, Nd, July 22.-The school
board of Caroline county has refused to
confirm the appointment of a married
woman. and passed an order defining
the policy of the board toward such
appointments hereafter, making mar
ried women ineligible as teachers in
Caroline county. The members of the
board claim that the importance of the
position Of a public school teacher is
such as to require the undivided time
and attention of the teacher, and that
as a rule, married women make teach
ing secondary to their domestic affairs
The board also decided not to carry
insurance any longer on school build
ings, claiming that the matter has been
expensive and that the best interests of
the taxpayers demands the step taken
Muh care has been taken by the board
Of late years to make the school build
ings as proof against accident by fire
as possible
Owing to the fact that the fiscal year
will be closed with a deficit, it has been
determined to build no new school
buildings for twelve months.
A building boom seems to have
struck Denton, and as a result many
new houses are now in course of con-
struction and several getting ready to
build before the close of the year. How
ard Melvin. T. Pliny Fisher,W A. Stew
art. Durnell Johnson and George II.
Berry are putting up splendid dwell
ings, which will greatly improve the
character of buildings in the town. The
town commissioners are enlarging the
limit of the town, and when the ne 4.
census is taken the town will show a
remarkable growth.
