The Salvation Army, however one
may view it's methods of arousing en-

practical ability in well-doing. For
instance, the shameful deeds of the

posed than the Army provided at least
a partial remedy. Depots were at

cago where six pounds of ice may be
bought for one cent, and the plan is to
be extended to other cities. The man

PRESERVE FUKESIS.
Government viii Attempt 90 Induce ths
Adoption Of Conservative Meth
ods OF LAUNDERING.

The attempt Of the government TO
induce the adoption Of conservative
methods of numbering in order to pre-
serve the national resources, and the
responsive interest taken by timber
owners, have brought up many Interest,"
ing legal questions, and the division of
forestry has found it necessary 70 make
extensive researches in this direction.
As a result, q circular dealing with the
laws which affect forests is in course
Of preparation and will be sent free 70
persons interested. One of the most
important points brought out is the
recognition by law OF the prospective
value OF growing timber. The possi-
bility OF profitably carrying on lumber
ing with systematic provision for future
cutting depends upon this point. It
has usually been held that when, by
tresspass, or by unscrupulous cutting
by contractors, timber has been re-
moved contrary TO the owners wish,
he could recover only its stumpage
value. As forestry usually requires
that q certain number of trees of GER
tain size be left, it follows that an un-
scrupulous contractor could easily upset
the plans of years with little fear Of
punishment. The supreme court, how
ever, has recently ruled that the differ
ence in value between logged and mn
logged land depends not only on the
value OF the timber removed, but on
its probable increase had 1t been left
untouched.
