Forestry and Railroads"


The first address of the morning was
that Of Z. A. Sterling, chief forester for
the Pennsylvania Railroad company. He
delivered an interesting talk on "Fores-
try and the Railroads"
The Relation Of Range Products to the
Water Supply" was the subject of A. f.
Potter, chief inspector of grazing Of the
United States forest service.
Another feature of the session was an
address by +. William Rane, forester of
Massachusetts, who spoke on State For
estry and Forest Administration" A res
OlutiOn was introduced by the Outdoor
league department Of the California club,
through its chairman, Mrs. Lowell White,
declaring that Niagara Falls are me-
naced with destruction through the rapa-
city of the power companies located on
both sides of the river. The resolution,
which was referred to the committee on
resolutions, urged that the congress ap-
prove the act of the American Civic as
ISOLATION i'm its attempt to preserve I'M
impaired Niagara Fails and urging con-
gress to enact necessary legislation
Burbank's Latest.
Luther Burbank, the expert on plants,
who appeared before the congress last
night, was again called on for an adj
periments in trying to produce a thorn
less cactus. He had all but succeeded,
he said, a lack of the nutrition desired
being the only obstacle to be overcome.
He predicted that this thOrnleSs cactus
would become the great fodder for the
arid region, for all kinds of stock relish
it and fatten quickly. About 200 tons can
be grown per acre, an extraordinary out
put compared with other kinds Of feed
The development Of the high nutrition
is being assiduously pursued by Bur-
bank and the grazing men will soon have
some important news from the wizard.
A delegate asked Burbank II he had a
secret of developing plant life and If the
secret would die with him. Burbank re-
piled that he had no secret and that he
is always glad to assist others.

Solved by Panama Canal.


It is suggested at the navy department
that before the gathering of a similar
number of naval vessels in the Pacific
becomes necessary, the problem will be
solved by the completion of the Panama
canal
1t is pointed out at the department that
even were the president or the depart
ment disposed, it would be impossible
for them to provide for another such fleet
as Admiral Evans present command
without congressional authority Several
battleships notably the New Hampshire
Idaho and Mississippi, and the three fleet
scout cruisers, Salem, Birmingham and
Chester, are under construction on the
Atlantic seaboard, but naval officers say
that before any of these ships will be in
commission the Atlantic fleet probably
will have returned to eastern waters.
Matter Not Decided.
It is stated at the navy department that
beyond his determination to have the At
lantic fleet return TO its home station
President Roosevelt has not decided how
the fleet shall return to the east. The
general board and Admiral Evans, with
his staff, have prepared plans and full
itinerary to return by way of the straits
of Gagellan, and by the Good Hope route.
Two months notice will be sufficient to
enable the navy department bureau to ex-
ecute all of the preliminaries, such as ac-
cumulating ample supplies of coal at con-
venient points for the execution of any Of
these ITINERARIES, 50 lIlaJ the president mas
until probably next July to decide.
Secretary Metcalf left San Francisco
last evening for BFemerton naval station
on Puget Sound, and after he has COM
pleted the examination of that station and
ascertained how many of the battleshiDs
can conveniently be accommodated there
he will return to Washington and begin
the preparation of his annual report, de-
voting special attention to the problem OF
the new naval construction 10 be recon-
mended to congress at the approaching
session. The understanding is at least two
battleships will be suggested.

 Perfectly safe, thanks to this gen. tleman."

 He swung himself into his saddle.
 "But, my dear sir" cried MT. Ken. wyck, "vour name?"
 The cowboy was already on the gal: lop. He turned and shouted something that no one could understand and then was gone. The girl stared after him in great disappointment He had saved her life, rescued her like hero but to leave her that way, and for a lot of wretched cattle-it was too provoking!
 Do any of you know that man?" asked MT. Renwyck.
 "Ain't never seed him afore," re. piled their guide.
 From wot he says, though, he sure knows his biz," said another. "The chances of gittin' out'n that mill"-h. looked at the ground torn by the tram bling herd-"was sure less'n nothin', all right"
 Father" said the girl weakly, the reaction setting in, 'let's go home. Tve had enough of this terrible country these awful cows"
 Ut breeds men, though, miss," said the guide, "as we'll as cattle."
 "Yes,' said the girl, it certainly bred one. 1 wish I knew his name."
 'T'll try to find it fer ye, miss," said the guide, although 'tain't jest the thing to ax a gents name out here. The boys gener'ly don't use their own names on a range. They've frequently got reasons for not mentionin' of 'em But wotever his name is, he's man, all right"
 "He is, indeed" said Miss Renwyck, and then she promptly collapsed a sec ond time.

He could not present himself as the son of William Williams for obvious reasons. He smiled as he pic tured his fathers apoplectic rage at such a proceeding and ceased to smile at the fancy of his visiting card in the hands of the tartar, Jacob Renwyck.

FOREST RESERVE ENLARGED,

On Nov. 5th. last, the Chiricahua Forest Reserve was enlarged from 169. 800 acres to 249, 300 acres or there abouts. The new territory taken in embraces those portions of the Chiri- cahuas and the Little Chiricahuas to the west and southwest. also to the north. Fort Bowie being included. For some reason. this fact was un- known until Tuesday last, when Forest Supervisor McGlone wired to Washington in regard to it and re- ceived a reply stating that the change had been made, says the Paradise Record
 It had been originally proposed in Washington to take in all of the Paradise townsite, but when J. H. Lieberg, the government expert was here he was urged by Mir. McGlone to leave out Paradise, and it is be- lieved that this was done. Hence 1t is likely that Paradise will not in the feast be affected. The exact bound aries of the new reserve will be known in a day or two when the omclal plat arrives from Washington.

RATE REDUCTION PROMISED

In an interview gwen in San An tonic, Texas, while enroute to Los Angeles. Benjamin F. Winchen. presi' dent of the Rock Island railway, ex- pressed the belief that, the country was overprosperous; that eventually there will be a reduction in freight rates; that the railroads are not at tempting overcapitalization, and that railroad men are not demons or ras- calls, but are human and wish to do right.
 Everybody knows the whole coun- try is busy-busier than ever before. There is an oVer-prosperity In the country I believe this prosperity is going to continue until the very high est pinnacle is reached and then will come the decline. l do not look for anything serious unless there is to- tai crop failure. 1 believe the country will remain prosperous and that gen eraIly everything will go on as usual. The entire country is prosperous and nothing can seemingly injure us ex- cept as I said before, failure of crops.
 What of the present railroad leg islstion? One result of that is going to be persistent reduction in rates and an increase of operating ex- peuses for the railroads. l believe that rates will be forced down to point where there will not be reve- nue enough derived to pay express. Naturally. then, the railroads will have to find a relief one way or the other.
 Much of the present legislation has been brought about, l believe, be- cause the facts in the matter have not been understood. The people are fair. I do not believe they will coun- tenance anything that 1t not fair.
 Railroad men, too. have been mis- understood. They are neither de- mons nor rascsls. They wish to do wha; is right There have been so many misrepresentations about one man controlling vast property or a system of railroads. The people Will see the truth in the matter
