TIMBER IS
TO BE SOLD
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
ADOPTS NEW POLICY AS TO
DISPOSITION OF STUFF.
Restrictions Formerly Laid Upon the
Export Of Timber from States in
Which Forest Reserves Are Locat-
ed Have Been Acknowledgements
or to Receive Applications.

Information ONE from Washington
that the mature timber of the national
forest reserves is to be offered for sale.
This announcement is in line with the
declared purpose of the department OF
agriculture to develop h national for,
est reserves by use. The restriction
formerly laid upon the export of timber
from the states in which the forest re.
serves were located has been removed,
and the law nov PAGES no limitation
on the shipment of timber grown on
any forest reserve except those in the
state of Idaho and the Black Hills re-
serve in South Dakota. The effect of
this change in the law, and the declar-
ed policy Of the department of agri-
culture, is that the timber on the re-
serves may now be cut and disposed
of TO the highest bidder. On many of
of mature timber, and on some of them
the facilities for getting it out at a
reasonable cost are excellent. The
forest service, which has charge of the
administration OF the reserves, is anX
ious to begin the cutting of this mature
timber as soon as possible, Il it is
prepared to consider offers from lum-
bermen who wish to undertake such
operations.
1t is perhaps we'll to call attention to
the fact that this announcement does
not mean that the forest reserves are
going to be devastated under author
ity OF the government. On the con
trary, the distinct and definite purpose
Of the forest service is to improve the
reserves by utilizing the material that
is now fit for lumber. In doing so, it
will also provide for the reproduction
Of the forest and the restocking OF
those areas upon which forest condi-
lions are defective. Work of this kind
has been successfully carried on for
some years in the Black Hills forest
reserve, and has been begun with the
LII VI oeS>No vi Nh~
lands of the Chippewa Indians, in
northern Minnesota, from which it is
proposed to create another national re-
serve.
The public in general, and lumber
men in particular, will be interested to
know that in this last case the restric-
lions imposed by the forester have in
no way hampered the numbering oper-
ations. Timber sold at public sale,
with full knowledge of these restric-
lions, brought higher prices than were
ever obtained for white and Norway
pine in the same region, and the slash
has been burned and got out of the way
at a cost of about 70 cents per thou
sand feet board measure.
The supervisor of each forest re-
serve is authorized to receive appli-
cations for the right to Il timber;
intending purchasers should communi-
cate with him, not with the department
at Washington.
Hon. L. G. Davis of Saratoga is the
supervisor of the Medicine Bow forest
reserve, which is included in the order
just promulgated.

WHAT'S MATTER AT LAPAZ.
Minister Victim of Nocturnal
Missile Throwers.

Lapaz, Ind, May SILT was thought
that the grand jury at Plymouth
would do great things for Lapaz Ii
appears that nothing was done Mar
shall Green thinks that the work oi
the grand jury should be investiiga-
ted. There is fearful uproar in La
Paz. The lawless element has been
carrying on hellish work since the
incorporation of Lapaz nearly one
year ago.
Human life is in danger. Thugs
tried to end Rev Martin Luther Pet
er's career. Rev. Peter is standing
up for the right He never harmed
man, woman or child. He has
lived in Lapaz since 1892 and his life
is an open book.
On commencement night, last Fri
day, his wife was absent attending
the exercises and he was at home
with sick daughter. At about nine
O'Clock devils in human shape threw
pieces of iron against the south side
of the house, missing the large win
dow about six inches. Had they sue
ceeded in throwing through the win
dow, it is likely that Rev. Peter
would be where anarchy is unknown
His friends say something must be
done They are Increasing in number
and Rev. Peter can rest assured that
he has the support of all decent peo-
pie.
A lady in South Bend, the owner
of Lapaz property, received notices
from Lapaz telling her that her prop
erty will be in danger if she rents
the building for saloon purposes.
Rev. Peter knew nothing of the let
ter or letters until Saturday night
when told by Mr.. H. Y. Shirk, lead
ing citizen of Lapaz. The author oi
the letters is not known.
Rev. Peter has written very much
He is not ashamed or afraid of his
writings and he never fails to sign
his name to all his communications
What will Plymouth do? Echo an
swers what?
Rev. Peter makes the following
statement: Let the ministers, busi-
ness men, school teachers and others
of LaPaz place themselves on record
against lawlessness, and then good
order will soon prevail in Our wicked
village Citizens of LaPaz, let us
meet and reason together. Let us
show our true colors."-South Bend

ROAD SUPERVISORS LAW.
Duties of Road Supervisors During
the Next Two Years.

The new laws make some changes
in the duties of road supervisor. An
other election is to be held next De-
cember, on. the third Saturday, and
the men elected will go into office
about the first of the year for two
years. His job will not be a snap,
either
A supervisor who permits a Canada
thistle to get six inches in length
along road over which he has con-
troll, can be fined from 81 to $40. SUI
:,rrvisors can receive SIS in every case
where they have a person arrested
and fined for violating the law by
allowing Canada thistles to grow up
on their lands, and this sum is to be
added to the fine and collected as
a part of the fine.
A person who sets corner stone
IN the road so as to project out of
the ground can be fined S25. A fine
of $50 can be assessed for dumping
anything in the way of trash and rub
bish in the roadway. To obstruct a
road means fine as high as $500 and
three months in Jail

PLANTING CORN IS SLOW.
Winter Wheat Most Promising
Spring Retarded

The weather bureaus weekly sum-
mary of crop conditions shows that
in most of the principal corn states
corn planting has made slow progress,
but extensive preparations for this
work have been made out, with fa-
vorable weather, much will be planted
during the first week of May.
Practically all reports indicate that
winter wheat continues in unusually
promising condition, the temperature
of the past week having been more
favorable for the advance of this crop.
Dry weather has been unfavorable
for the termination and growth OF
spring wheat in the Dakotas- The
early sown in South Dakota, however,
and in Minnesota is doing we'll. The
outlook for spring wheat in Iowa,
Oregon and Washington is promising.

NO SLOT MACHINES THERE.
Whole County That Boasts of Com
plete Cleaning up of Them.

Richmond, Ind, May A. For the
first time in probably ten years there
is not a slot machine of any descrip-
ton in Wayne county. The last was
cleaned OFT of Hagersiown on the or
der of Prosecutor Jessup, who went
to that town and personally notified
the saloonkeepers that the day of the
slot machine had passed in Wayne
county and they must be removed.
The order was promptly complied
with.
Liquor law violations in the smaller
towns of that county are becoming
less frequent, and there are no CON-
plants being received Gambling is
practically dead in the county. Rich
mond can truthfully boast of being
the largest city in Indiana in which
gambling rooms did not close when
the recent wave of morality swept
over the state. The reason for this
was that Richmond has been without
gambling rooms for at least four
years. There is not poker game
running within the limits of the Quak-
er City, and with Prosecutor Jessup's
vigorous stand continues there will be
none.

RURAL ROUTE DEFICIT.
Overstreet Says Service Should be
Maintained Even at a Loss.

Congressman Jesse Overstreet,
chairman of the committee on post
Offices and post roads, speaking of the
bulletin issued by the Postoffice De-
partment, showing that the deficit for
each rural route month is $25, said
a deficit was expected.
I'VE estimated" he said, that on
conservative basis the deficit would
be at least $50 month for each route.
We estimated that the total deficit
in the Postoffice Department this year
would be twelve millions and next
year fifteen millions.
I'm order to ascertain the business
done on rural routes, the mail was
counted. Everything delivered on the
routes was counted and all mail orig
mating on the routes was counted.
The deficit is the difference between
the cost of the service and the sum OF
the mail delivered and originating on
the route.
There is always deficit when a
servic begins. In time, l believe, the
rural mail service will be self-suppor-
ting. But even if it does not become
self-supporting, / maintain, and have
maintained on the floor of the House
that the service should be continued
because of the greater convience it
affords to country life"
