AMERICAN FORESTRY.

The rapidity with which the
AN erican forests are telpg telled is
almost incredible. A few years ago
the New England and Great Lake
states furnished most Of the lumber.
They reached tke,r maximum and
have been falling off. Then the
southern state came in and the forests
have disappeared as if by magic.
Inc southern states are COW at their
maximum and the Pacific coast iG
coming to the lead, the state Of Wash
lngton furnishing more lumber than
any other single state. The yellow
pine of the south is being cut at the
rate of twelve million feet year, and
tie supply will be totally exhausted
In about ten years at that rate. .-x-

Dear Sir: You've got 200 cows; how
much will you take for calves and milk
or 100 of 'em next year-you pick out
the 100?
How much for the other 100?
The point is: COWS are not all alike,
and you know which Is which.
1t is so with paint. You've got one
best cow in that herd. There are 200
different paints in the United States; and
one best. You know your best COW; we
know the best paint.
The Oest COW is the one that gives the
best calves and milk. The Lest paint
is the one that covers most surface and
stays there longest neither paint nor
cow goes by color-nobody asks whether
Holstein or Jersey is better to look-at.

and wear 10 years; it'll take Is of an other
paint, and that paint'll wear years.

WHY HEARST Is STRONG.

Critics of William r. Hearst find
much to criticise in his doctrines
aud platform, but it is fair to him
20 point out that no critic has ever
ventured to assert that his position
is not made clear. Here at least
is one man considered in connection
with the Presidency who is not
afraid to declare himself on all
questions that confront the public.
Is it any wonder that he attracts
attention and wins the support of
many admirers Mr.. Hearst puts
into practice what he has persis-
tently preached. He does not de-
mand from any candidate more
than he is willing to do. If he
asks that man make his position
known on public questions before
asking for popular support, he is
able to justify his demand by show
ing that he has already done the
same thing himself.
The age of shutiiing and lodging
is ended. The public now wants
frankness as much as it wants hon
esty. 1t is through with any per-
son who has the faint of graft about
him-and the candidate who con-
ceals his honest opinions for the
sake of sneaking into Office is
species of CRATER. Has any candi-
date an intelligent opinion, for in
stance, on the tariff Let him out
with it, His honest frankness will
counterbalance any loss incurred
by reason of his views. Voters
are no longer bound by party ties
in national elections. They will
vote for the man they trust, without
regard to his politics. But they
will not trustany man who is afraid
TO trust them. They will not send
to the White House any man who
Is palpably lacking in moral cour-
age. Hearst's growing strength is
plain warning that the old style
ofgumshoe politics has passed out.
Whether other candidates like it or
not, they must adopt the Hearst
method of absolute candor and
clear-cut expression of opinion if
they hope to win public support.
