Cannon and Forestry.

The reported imminence Of famine
ID spruce gum as a result Of the spruce
forests is not expected to appeal to
Speaker Cannnon's sensibilities to any
greater extent. As matter Of fact,
the tough old speaker Of the national
house OF representatives does not chew
spruce gum when he chews at all New
ertheless, there is an increasing interest
in Speaker Cannon's present attitude
toward the Appalachian forest reserve
BILL IT Is well known that he was
originally opposed TO the measure, and
IL was not due to him alone that it
was not brought up for consideration
BY the last Congress It has been given
out, however, on good authority, that
he had yielded SO far to manifest
popular demand for the bill that he
would not oppose its consideration in
the present Congress and at the present
session. His reply to letter Of inquiry
from Henry A Barker Of Providence
might be construed iii confirmation of
this report, If it were only a little more
explicit. In his reply the speaker says,
referring to the forest reserve bill, that
so far as he knows nothing will be done
to prevent the house of representatives
from considering any bill OF resolution
the committee on agriculture shall re-
port This is an very well, 50 far as
II goes, but 1t is very far from definite
statement as to the speakers present
attitude toward the measure, and 1t Is

Valley growers to show apples at
both Spokane and Council Bluffs.
and it was decided that more good
could be done by showing the fruit
from this valley at the Eastern
show.
The apple growers of Council Val

lit wire, and most of the foothill or
chards are being fenced against the
snowshoe rabbits which, during win.
