Forest Questions.

As people are generally aware, log ging has ceased on the Blue, and all op- erations; such as Hatch removing tim bers, or Ira Harper saving timber, or re- moving lumber ready sawed.
 But the above parties wiflabc permit. red to proceed to business. just as soon as Forest R ,ngers. Joseph Pierce and Roy Goliath receive orders 10 measure their tinfbers, which orders they expect daily, or Immediately. These orders they expect from Superintendent Bun- tain, who is located at Santa Fe. After receiving orders to measure the timber, work will commence, upon sttmpage be- ing paid, at rate of from six to eight cents on timbers. and twenty or twenty five cents per thonssnd, on lumber.
 We sincerely hope that this timber enterprise will not stop tnor shut down) as it circnlates money throughout Apa- che and Graham Counties. The conn., try from which the timber is heinz re. moved is a very rough, rugged corhtry;,. and there is'only one road to get the timber ont to the mines and the timber in this locality can he of no possible use, except in the mines.
 If Government does not aci on this matter immediately. it will work hard- shin npon many. as they are thrown ont of employment: also. We are informed that great many will he thrcwn ont of work in the mines. It is a hardship on the mining industry, for timhers will have to be imported from Oregon or California. Those timbers are uaed as props in the mines, to prevent them from cavine in.
 Ranger PiercsIs doing all he can to aid in permitting sheep to range on the Reserve, for he welI knows that if the sheep are prohibited from ranging on the Reserve, that if takes the largest re. venne from the county.
 As to forest fires. one sheepman used lanterns. and says that in lambing ne did not lose lamb he knew of. This he did not making any camp fires what ever this demonstrating that there is no need of forest fires.

A Play on Words.

That humorous play on words which de-
scribes the visit of the frog, the duck, the
lamb and the skunk to the animal show
has become quite a familiar witticism,
says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. In fact
the man who spoke it is usually warned
by the smiles of his hearers that he is
going over threshed ground. Yet there
may be a few readers left who haven't
heard it. For their sake it is herewith re-
peated, and a little postscript is tackled on,
which is quite as amusing as the original
story.
1t appears that one idle day the frog
the duck, the lamb and the skunk started
forth together to visit the show Just what
sort of show ID was the chronicler doesn't
state. Anyway, it was something that the
queerly assorted quartet was anxious ia
attend, and they hoped and waddled, and
gamboled, and trotted towards the big
canvas Enclosure with delightful throbs OF
anticipation.
Finally. they reached the door tender,
the frog leading the line.
Well. the frog had a greenback and pass
ed right IN.
The duck had bin and followed the
frog.
The lamb had four quarters and followed
the frog and the duck.
But the unfortunate skunk was left on
the outside. He had only scent.
Naturally, he turned away feeling pretty
blue.
AS he was slowly going back over the
hill he met hoop snake rolling along at
a lively rate towards the show. The skunk
greeted him, but the snake did not stop.
Don't interrupt me-" he cried, over his
shoulder. ~ have to do turn and I'm a
little late"
And he rolled along.
At the top of the hill the skunk noticed
another Old friend approaching 1t was
the sardine.
"Hullov cried the sardine; what's the
matter.
So the skunk told him.
Il can guess how you feel about Il -
said the sardine eympatheticarly. IT he
long to the smelt family myself But. saw.
old fellow, you come right back and 60 in
with me-Ive got box"
So the skunk and the eardine went back
together.
