The Roswell daily record. [volume] (Roswell, N.M.) 1903-current, 1904-12-19
Yours very truly"

This letter says that forest res
erve scrip will be a thing of the
he past" lit should be a thing of
the past, and this congress should
promptly make it a thing of the past.
The owners of these lands included
in forest reserves should be forced
to sell them to the government at,
not necessarily $1.25 per acre, but at
the appraised value, as is advocated
by the National Irrigation Congress
and by the National Irrigation Asso-
citation. Many of these lands have
already been denuded of their last
stick of timber and are not worth
fifty cents an acre.
With this forest lieu land upon the
statute books it is a question wheth-
er the creation of additional forest
reserves does not become more of a
menace to forestry and irrigation
than a good.
Facing a Timber Famine.
The most eminent forest authori-
ties tell us that at the present rate
of forest destruction there will be
no forests in the United States with
in forty years. There is no more Ger
tain way to bring this condition about
than to continue the operation of the
forest reserve scrip law and the tim
Der and stone law.
With a wise forest policy by which
the title to the remaining public for
est lands shall remain in the govern
ment, allowing the sale of the stump
age, as recommended to congress by
President Roosevelt, thus assuring a
second growth Of timber and the en-
durance Of the water supply, an easy
solution of his great problem is of
fered. 1t is opposed of course by
and lumber spectators and
manipulators, but the American peo-
pie should open their eyes to the
facts, as they frequently do when
abuses have reached a certain limit,
and make themselves heard on this
tremendous question.

This is undoubtedly a grand under

contribute something to help carry il
out. Many homes are destitute OF
Christmas feasts and many children
do not get any toys or presents and
those who are blessed with plenty
should contribute to this worthy cause.

Should Banks
Advertise?

Does it pay for banks to advertiser
Five years ago some banks in Pittsburg.
Pa, began to advertise, and recently they
measured the results by comparing theiI
business with that Of banks that did not
advertise. In the five years the banks
that sought new business through
printers ink gained IS per cent in assets
and SIS per cent. in deposits. The other
banks gained 27 per cent. in assets and
IL per cent in deposits. During the last
year the former gained % per cent. and
the latter lost per cent. in deposits
The question, truly observes the Spring
field (Mass.) Republican, whether It pays
to advertise may. not be entirely an
swered by such figures. but they are cal.
culated to provoke thought.
