SELECTING THE RANGERS

The duties of the forest ranger
are so manifold that schools of iu.
struction are carried on, under the
direction of technical experts who
have studied tho forestry systems
of. Europe, and who have had q
long course of practical work in
this country. The examinations,
which are conducted under civil
service rules, are most rigorous,
and the unfit and incompetent are
excluded at the beginning. These
examinations are held at stated
periods during the summer, and
they show what care the Cover
ment is exercising in the selection n
of the men to guard its forest re-
serves. Not only must the sue.
cessful candidate prove that he is
versed in the lore of the wilderness
and that be can ride, shoot, and
pack, but he must also show that
he has a good education. His fit.
ness for the rougher part Of the
work is passed upon by technical
forestry expert in charge of the
examination, and his answers 10
questions testing bis education are
scanned by the Civil-Ssrvice Com
mission, according to an article by
Anthony Chapman in the Amerl-
can Monthly Review of Reviews
for April. Each year it is becom
ing more difficult to get position
as forest ranger. More qualifica,
tions are demanded as the import
anee of irst.class forestry work
becomes manifest. 1t seems highly
probable that before long only
those who have had the advantage
of instruction in forestry schools
will be eligible for the positions
which have heretofore gone to
COWBOYS and others who are better
versed in the outdoor part of the
work than in the finer phases of
forestry, as taught in the schools.

Advices from Washington state
that the struggle next fall in OHIO
will have an important, if not de
cisive influence upon the presiden.
cy. If Foraker wins in the con
test in primaries he will attract to
bis candidacy all anti-Roosevelt
influence in the republican party,
while at the same time crippling
Taft in bis own state. If the ad
ministration is not indorsed by
voters of Ohio this fall it will
mean elimination of Taft as a pres.
idential candidate. Thus the tan
giles in the republican web begin
to make grist for the democratic
hopper.

New Forage Plant.

Mr.. Alfred Cluff of Bryce, Ora
ham county, has secured the seed
of a new forage plant for dairying
purposes and reports that samples
grown on his farm are remarkably
prolific, and heavy milk producers.
One bill of three to five seeds will
produce from 25 to 40 stalks, and
the plant will yield five crops a
year. Three pounds sown broad
cast will cover an acre. One pound
will plant an acre two and one
half feet each way. The plant
when grown is from twelve to IF
teen feet high, and the head on
eacn stalk is from ten to fifteen
inches long. 1t makes a good
feed for chickens, as we'll as a
stock fodder. The roots are easily
killed when necessary. The plant
comes from Guatemala, Central
America. Mr.. Cluff has some seed
for sale at rs cents per pound.
