THE FOREST RESERTE.
(Contributei)

IL was about three years ago that a good part of southeastern Alaska was made q forest reserve. No special reasons were given. This territory was just set aside.
 The reasons usually given for forest reserves do not apply to southeastern Alaska. One argu- ment for it is that a forest reserve preserves the timber, and this pre- gents the rapid melting of snow and thus spring freshets are avoid- ai. In a country where there is so much rain and comparatively so little snow as southeastern Alaska, this would not apply. At any rate syhat if freshets did come? A bea- yer dam here and there might be destroyed, or bear going down to salmon stream to fish might fall in. but what of that?
 Another reason for timber re- serve is that it compels the lumber man to remove the branches and useless parts of trees so that they will not be fuel for forest fires. This ls not a strong reason in q climate where there is so much rain that t is a problem of existence to gel wood dry enough to burn.
 Another argument is that it pre- vents the indiscriminate cutting of young trees. Who would think of cutting young trees, when there is I market for only the very best logsf
 Another reason is that it enables the government to get a revenue from the sale of its own standing timber. All the revenue that it possibly can collect will not pay the salaries of the men who are necessary to look after the reserve.
 Now it is not intended to impugn the honesty or sincerity of those who took part in creating this for est reserve, or of the officials who have charge of the government tim Der But what is the effect of the present timber regulations. Those who log do not do much more than earn what is small wages, and the work is hard and dangerous. The effect is simply this: It is tax up- on the laborer for the purpose of providing a part of the salaries of the officers who are to take charge of the reserve. The sawmills doI not pay it The laboring man has 10 pay it or get out of the country. The final effect is to retard the de- relopment of Alaska. If the inten- tion is to keep Alaska 3 hunters paradise, let us have forest reserves and plenty of them. What can the people do? The only thing is to k:ck, and let us remember that eternal kicking is the price of lib- arty

VEGETABLE JUICE
CURE FOR
CONSUMPTION.

that all the prominent phys1-
clans of New York have re-
ceived a circular from the
New York Post Graduate
Hospital giving an account
of the wonderful cures of con-
sumption through the use of
the juice of raw vegetables
and fruits. 1t seems that the
treatment began by the use
OF potatoes, onions, beets,
turnips, cabbages and celery.
Later there were added sweet
potatoes, apples, pineapples.
carrots and parsnips, and still
later rhubarb, summer squash,
tomatoes, spinach, radishes,
string beans and green peas
in the pod.
1t would seem to be absurd
on its face that such treat
ment could be used to effectu-
ally combat consumption, yet
SO. high an authority as DR..
Russell of the above-named
hospital, who seems to have
made the discovery and de-
veloped the treatment, states
that eleven cases of well-de-
veloPed pulmonary tubercu-
losis have been absolutely
cured while fifty others are
under treatment and progress
ing satisfactorily.
1t is to be hoped that the
hong looked for cure Of this
dread disease has at last been
found in this treatment, but
the medical profession will,
doubtless, be sceptical, as they
are and should be on all new
treatments until more than
eleven cases have been cured
by a combination of simple
vegetable juices that contain
little, if any, Of the nourish-
ment required by the con-
sumptive. AS DR.. Russell
says he has been the principle
advocate Of nutrition as op-
posed to medicine in the
treatment of tuberculosis, he
seems to contravert his own
theory in the use of these
vegetable juices that possess
such a small percentage o1
nutrition.
Hygiene and nutrition o1
the best sort are absolute re-
quisites in the treatment o1
consumption. If the laws ot
health are carefully observed
and the body is sustained
with nutritious, wholesome
easily digested food, the raw
ages of the disease may bf
arrested, even when the lung
tissue is involved. There is
little question that the best
nutrition in the world in such
cases is the old and much
abused cod liver oil; not in
its raw state but in the form
best adapted orits immediate
absorption into the body, a:
found in SCOTS Emulsion O
pure Norwegian cod liver OF
which contains, in addition
the valuable hypophosphite
of lime and soda and glycer
inc. We~hesitate to say tina
it will cure consumption, bu
after thirty years experlenc
with it, the medical profession
knows that it will arrest tn
progress of the disease and i,
its earlier stages generally el
feet a permanent cure. S.
certain are we Of this tina
we challenge a comparativ
clinical test in any hospital O
sanitarium where there are pa
tients afflicted with this ma.
ady. If it will not cure NOR
cases Of consumption, if tn
samerules are observed, thai
the vegetable and fruit juic
treatment, we will agree t.
supply the institution maxim;
the test with SCOTS Emulsio7
free for a year. There is n
doubt that SCOTS Emulsio
is the most concentrated forr
of nutrition in existence, an,
if consumption can be cure
at all it will do it.
