"TREELESS" KANSAS
is TO BE STUDIED
Tree Plantations That Succeed-Main
Conditions of Success.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 10
Western Kansas north of the Arkansas
river and west of a line drawn from
Osborne through Russell to Larned will
receive the particular attention of the
bureau of forestry this summer. A
study of the tree growth of that re-
gion will begin this month under the
direction of r. S. Kellogg, of Russell,
Kan, an agent for the bureau, and will
be continued until fall In this part
cf the state the timber penetrates the
prairies by way of the river bottoms,
clinging closely to these moist lands
and advancing only occasionally to the
uplands.
The bureau will study the tendency
of the trees and shrubs along the
water courses to increase and spread.
especially when protected from fire and
stock, and will determine what species
are best adapted to planting on those
uplands that contain no natural growth
In many places along the streams
where the fire and stock have been ex-
cluded for ten or fifteen years are
found thrifty young cottonWoods.
white elms, boxelders and other species
which are slowly invading the great
plains.
The low rainfall of Western Kansas
is not alone responsible for the scarcity
of timber. The Pine ridge country Of
Nebraska grows forests with only six
teen inches of rain a year, while the
treeless regions of Western Kansas
have Precipitation of sixteen to twen-
ty inches.
Failures in tree planting, aside from
natural causes, such as high winds and
intense sunlight, are due chiefly to a
lack of care in planting and cultiyat-
ing and lack of knowledge of what
kinds of trees to plant.
Such failures have had an excellent
result-they have given a fairly good
knowledge of what to and what not to
plant, and of the methods that are
successful and those that are not. 1t
is partly to increase this knowledge
that the bureau has undertaken its
study of the growth of the state. Tim
Der, fuel, posts and frewood may be
grown in the prairie regions; that fact
is established. But the plantations to
be successful must be composed of the
right species, planted in the right way
on the right kind of land, and cared for

SITUATION IN
BALKANS GRAVE
Albanian Difficulty a Greater
Menace Than Macedonian
Question.

LONDON,April 19.-The correspond
ent at Belgrade of the Daily Mail has
had an audience with King Alexander
Of Servia. In this interview the king
said the situation in the Balkans was
exceedingly grave, and that the Alban-
ian difficulty was a greater menace to
peace than the Macedonian question.
THE continued massing of Turkish
troops in old Servia," King Alexander
said to the Daily Nails correspondent,
will force me to take similar steps.
Servia will not take the initiative, but
If the other Balkan states move Servia
will not and cannot look on. but must
protect her own vital interests"
King Alexander denied with emphasis
that his recent coup d'etat was effect
ed with the chief purpose of settling
the question of a successor to the
throne, and declared it was simply d
measure to check the injurious ascend
ancy of the Radicals.

ALCOHOL ENEMY

ports Arguments of Alb

BERLIN, April 19.-Mrs. Mary II.
Hunt, of Boston, representing the
Women's Christian Temperance union
at the international anti-alcohoI con-
gress at Bremen, has sent the follow
ing communication:
"The international anti-alcohol con-
gress, that meets biennially on the con-
tin2at, is closing it's ninth session to-
day. 1t has been in the matter of at
tendance and well known persons pres
ent the most remarkable of any session
of the congress. This body of 1,40O
delegates. notable in science and in the
service of humanity, as university pro-
fessors or for their hereditary rank.
have come here from fifteen different
nations on two hemispheres.
Questions of religion and politics
were wisely ruled out of such a varied
assemblage. The subjects discussed
were the teachings of science concern
ing a moderate use of alcohol and the
effect of its use on every phase of
human progress. Two schools of
thought were represented; the mod
crates, who called themselves the tenn
perate school, and the total abstainers
who are called the abstinence school,
BY common consent the congress pass
ed no resolutions, but the applause for
the testimony of science and expert
ence on behalf of total abstinence
showed the moderates to be in the mi
nority.
one of the foremost authorities in the
world on brain and nerve diseases, that
neither science nor experience furnish
es evidence to justify calling alcohol
a food, called out prolonged acclama-
tions. The papers read by notable
members of the congress during these
six days will fill two or three volumes,
and soon will be printed for wide dis
tribution.
"The paper on Alcohol and Art by
Prof Berens, director of the German
School of Art at Dusseldorf, was a
classic. He said that alcohol by dull
ing the spiritual aspirations essential
to the greatest work is an enemy of the
highest attainment in art.
"a paper on Scientific Temperance
Education in the Public Schools in the
United States,' by Mrs. Hunt, led to
discussion in which twenty speakers
took part, and nearly every one of them
commended the extension of the Amer
lean method for the prevention of in
temperance"
In compliment to the United States,
Mrs. Hunt presided at Saturdays ses-
sion of the congress. After sight-see-
ing excursions to take place tomorrow,
the delegates to the congress will sepa-

GREEK RIOTERS SHOT
BY CHICAGO POLICEMAN
Officer Knocked Down by Brick While
Arresting Man.

CHICAGO, April 19.-Because one Of
their number had been arrested for
creating disturbance, a crowd Of
Greeks, who We're celebrating their
Easter Sunday here today, created
riot, and before the mob could be dis
persed, three of them had been shot
by Policeman Cohen and Henry Op-
penheimer, a bystander who came to
the assistance of Cohen The three
wounded men, who are said to have
been the leaders of the attack on the
officer, were arrested. None of them
was seriously injured.
The disturbance occurred near the
Greek Catholic church, in Johnson
street. During the Easter celebration
someone threw a lighted firecracker
among the pedestrians in the street, and
Policeman Cohen Immediately arrest
ed the offender. The crowd attacked
the officer, knocking him down with a
brick. Cohen sprang to his feet and
fired a shot into the crowd, hitting
Nick RizZitto in the left shoulder. This
act infuriated the mob, which again
rushed at the officer, and probably
would have killed him had not Open
heimer sprung to his assistance. He
held the crowd at bay for a moment
until Cohen could recover from the
attack. Surrounded by the maddened
crowd, they fired several shots, wound
ing two of the disturbers, James Ship
anvitz and John Loleets by name.
Cohen and his companion, after be-
ing severely bruised and having their
clothing almost torn from their bodies
managed to escape to a saloon, where
they held the crowd back until the
arrival of police aid, which dispersed

PROMOTING FORESTRY
IN NEW MEXICO
Members of Cattle Company Will
Plant $50 Acres in Trees.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 19-W.
L. Hall, chief of the Division of Forest
Extension, has just returned from a
trip to New Mexico, made at the re-
quest of ]. ]. and H. j. Hagerman, prin-
c1pal members. of the South Spring
Ranch Cattle Company, which owns a
big ranch near Roswell, in the Pecos
River Valley, one of the richest and
best irrigated regions in the territory.
The company wants to raise trees on
a part of its irrigated lands, both for
fence posts and for shade and orna-
mental purposes. : Mr. Hall made a
planting plan for 450 trees. The trees
to be planted for fence posts will be
hardy catalpa; those to be planted for
shade and ornament will be hardwoods.
such. as black walnut, pecan, green
ASH, Eastwood, horse chestnut, white
elm, and sycamore
There is no timber in this part of
New Mexico except the cottonwoods
that are planted there. Fence posts of
SABINE cedar, from the canyons of
western Texas, are shipped in and cost
10 cents to 20 cents apiece.
While in New Mexico Mr.. Hall made
preliminary examination of zoo. 600
acres OF cut-over timber land owned by
William H. Bartlett, of Chicago. The
land lies on the east slope of the Rocky
Mountains in New Mexico about so
miles southwest of Trinidad, and
touches the Colorado line. The land
once bore a good growth of yellow
pine, but the timber has been or soon
will be nearly all >cut. Mr.. Bartlett
wants to grow timber ON it again. not
only for the production of lumber. but
that 1t may serve as a private forest
and game preserve. The bureau will
put party in the field this summer to
make plan for handling the tract. The
problems of keeping out fire and i'm
proving the natural reproduction must
be solved; and it may be necessary to
restock part Of the land by planting
or seeding.
