Wooden Editorials.

A number of our exchanges are
now running a lot of patent"
editorials that will do their papers
no lasting good. If man is not
able to write his own editorials he
should be honest with his readers
and not attempt to pass the writings
of some other man as his own.
The people as a rule are hard to
fool, and they soon get on to the
situation when a newspaper at
tempts to work them in this way.
Last week we noticed the same
editorial" in something like a
half dozen papers, published in and
cut of Bell county, each one run
ming it as original matter created
by the fertile brain of its editor.
They say that great minds frequent
ly run along the same channel, but
we hope to be excused from be-
lieving that so many of them
would clothe the same thought in
the same identical language. =

Two Meanings of Artesian.

The significance of the term
''artesian'' is discussed with great
care by Mryon L. Fuller, of the
United States Geologi caI Survey,
in Water-Supply and Irrigation
Paper No. 100. While there is
considerable diversity of pr actice,
there is nevertheless a general ten
dency to give the term one or the
other of two meanings, and about
fifty biologists throughout the
country have expressed their will
ingness to accept any definition
agreed on by the majority of active
workers on underground water
problems. Discussing the original
use of the term artesian Gas applied
to flowing wells first observed in
the town of Artois, France), the
use of the word in recent scientific
literature, in Europe, and the pres
ent scientific and popular use of the
/ term in this country, MT Fuller
makes clear that no definite mean
ing can be assigned to the word ar
tesian in publication unless def
milton is given in the same paper.
1t is even found that the same writer
employs it differently in different
publications. The predominant,
scientific usage of the term is for
all wells in which the water rises
in other words, for those exhibit
ing the hydrosatic or artesian prin-
ciple- In popular practice 1t is ap-
piled, in addition to the uses pre-
viously mentioned, to deep we'll:
in general, especially those in rock
and TO certain extent to any
drilled wells yielding water of good
sanitary quality.

FORESTER PINCHOT ON
THAT WHITS0N DECISION

The following signed statement
regarding the much talked of Judge
Whitson decision on the grazing
land question was made public to-
day by the chief forester. Mr..
Pinchot ridicu1cs the idea that the
government will be obliged to re-
fund the half million dollars COL
1ectcd last year as grazing taxes
as result of the Whitson deci-
sion. Stockmcn all over the country
are interested in the matter. 1t is
as follows:
1.-The decision of Judge Whitson in
the case of the United States YER
sus Matthews, that a violation of
the regulations of the secretary of
agriculture for the protection of for
est reserves could not be punished
. as crime, has no bearing what
ever upon the right to charge G
grazing fee He merely decided
that congress could not delegate tc
an administrative officer the right
to determine a crime punishable by
fine and Imprisonment.
1.-The report that MIR. Matthews
! in whose favor Judge Whitson',
decision vas rendered, continued
to Craze his stock upon the forcs
reserve is without foundation, a
Mountain Home maverick. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1906-1911, 1906-12-06

the sheep were immediately re-
moved upon notice by the forest re-
serve. The circuit court of ap-
peals, of which Judge WhitSon is
subordinate, has decided that the
regulations are valid as the basis
for an injunction to prob ibit the
pasturing of live stock on forest re-
serve land. Judge Whitson's court
would be bound by this decision in
civil action for trespass and 1 am
sure that he would not refuse an
injunction nor declare the grazing
fee illegal in a civil action, as such
decision could be taken for re-
view before the circuit court of
appeals, which would undoubtedly
override him.
IF any person should presume to
pasture stock upon the forest re-
serves without payment of the
grazing fee, an injunction would be
applied for through the department
of justice as soon as the trcSpassor
is reported, and civil action would
also be commenced to recover dam
ages. The supreme court of Ari-
IONA has rendered a decision that a
violation of the regulations govern
ing forest reserves is punish able as
a crime I believe that this is
good law, and the forest service
will continue prosecuting until q
decision is obtained from the higher
courts. -

could be wonderfully improved by
similar bitches.
The Jerome Fork valley is one of
these and while there seems to have
been some talk of it's improvement
Conditions here are very similar
to those in the Killback creek bot
toms but the wet lands are wider
and a less amount of ditching
would drain a larger acreage.
Wayne, Medina, and Ashland
counties are all in a rich farming
section. Should these wet valleys
be reclaimed, they would furnish
the finest soil in that part of the
state and make most valuable ag-
ricultural lands
AS lands become more scarce
and valuable, there is increased
disposition to raise funds from pri-
vate and corporate sources to carry
out these drainage projects. I'm
fortunately, there are millions of
acres of swamp land SO situated
that their drainage would involve
the outlay of hundreds of thousands
and even millions of dollars Such
vast undertakings can not be financ-
| ed by private individuals nor even
| by states. The aid of the federal
government is necessary, especially
in view of the fact that most OF
these wet lands have been pat
ented in trust to the states, with
a view to their drainage by state
aid, or are still in public ownership.
The topographic maps of the
Geological Survey constitute {
| wealth of material on which to p1ar
drainage works, but the government
should now go a step further anc
direct the energies of the topo
graphers more Immediately int
swampy regions. 1t is possible tina
the result of such surveys will sho '
up enough rec1aimable land to war
rant the enactment of federal lcgis
1ation for the general drainage o
existing swamps- Without sue
aid millions of acres of the riches
land must remain waste.

DRAINAGE OF
SWAMP LANDS
Ohio furnishes Example Of
Complete Successful
for Government to
Tackle.

An excellent example of the value
of reclaimed swamp lands is found
near Lodi, Ohio, where the Gar
den Isle'' farmers have brought to
perfection the cultivation of onions
and celery.
There is at this point a wide
stretch of perfectly flat land which
drains to the north into Lake Erie,
by way OF Black, river and to the
south into the Ohio through Kill
back creek and Muskigun river
At Garden Isle are $500 acres of
drained land and along KillbaCk
creek valley for distance of 5
miles drainage work is in progress
This valley averages onc-third of
a mile in width and thus another
$500 acres will soon become highly
productive. Originally, Killback
creek carried the entire drainage
but its channel was extremely
crooked and much Distracted by
trees. Another drawback to its
flow was the fact that the fall was
very slight in comparison to the
length of the stream. AS 1t is
irnpracticable to increase the fall
sufficiently to secure better drain
age the plan has been adopted OF
digging a ditch as straight as
possible and diverting into this
the major part of the drainage, in
Guiding that of Kiuback creek and
various tributary streams, while z
small part of the water is carried
north into Black river BY thi:
fa11 of 60 fee
remains practically the same, the
distance is reduced from 20 to /.
miles, and the grade is so i'm
r,rovcd as to insure a rate of dis
charge sufficient to thoroughly drain
the entire tract The main ditcl
will be finished this fall. 1t i
dug with a floating dredge which
requires only very small crcw Q
men for its operation. The route a
a rule follows as closely as possibl
the bed of Kil1back creek, viii e
cuts back and forth across the ne<
channel constantly. At one or tw
points the new line shifts to tn
edge of the bottom lands.
The work is being done undo
the direction of the county survey
or of Wayne county and VIII {

ceived.
An examination of the WHINING
ton, Wooster, and West Salem tot
ographic sheets of Ohio, publishe
bv the United States Geologic
Suvey, fails to indicate any bette
scheme of drainage for Kil1bac
creek valley. These maps do shoV
