AEIHODSOF FORESTRY
Hard Work Being Done TO Bring
Forests to Their Highest
Production.

To bring the forests to their full
productiveness, however, they must
be cut over. The axe is the for
ester's hoe, AS well as his scythe.
Reaping and sowing are usually for
him one and the same operation. and
cultivation is accomplished by getting
rid of what he does not want. There
were cut from the National Forests
during the last fiscal year the equiva-
lent of little over 2sO. 600, QUO. board
feet of timber. This involved emitting
operations on slightly less than 800, :
900 acres of land, or about one four
hundredth of the total area of the
Government forests. In other words,
hardly a beginning has been made
in brining the forests to their high
est productiveness through use, and
their reserve of mature timber has
scarcely been touched by the opera
tiops under way.
Timber cutting on the National For
ests has hitherto been done almost en-
tirely by what foresters call the ''se-
lection method - This takes out only
part of the trees and leaves the
rest to grow more rapidly as result
of the opening up Of the forest while
permitting also the seeding up of
the ground with new growth. Each
tree TO be cut Is selected by forest
officer, and stamped at the base of the
stump and again at the breast height.
If the cutters fell any trees which
were not marked for them, the alb
sence of the ~. S. - stamp on the
stump betrays the fact to the Govern
ment inspector. and the persons re-
sponsible are brought to book. by
this method of cutting the actual prac-
tice of forestry is being gradually in.
tIoduced This means not merely that
the timber is protected nor merely
I that il is made use of as it natures
but that it also that it Is cultivated
/ like crop in order to get as much
as possible out of the land
The total cut from the National For.
ests during the last fiscal year $3.50,
600, 900 board feet was insignificant
in comparison alike with the tota
timber cut of the country. the tota
stand of Government timber. and the
yearly productive ca .,acity of all the
forests when they have been brought
under management. Balancing one
thing against another, the Govern

DON'T BE A FROG.

A frog jumps readily enough when
put in warm water yet a frog can be

Yale University the water was heated

Court Decides Against Claimant in
Texas Case.

nj hundred thousand acres Of land in
western Texas held under Mexican
grants are claimed to be affected by
the action In the case of Sullivan vs..
the state Of Texas which in an opinion
by Justice Brewer has just been decid-
ed by the supreme court Of the Unit
States favorably to the state.
This particular suit was over tract
of $1,000 acres in Hidalgo county,
which It was claimed was comprised
in a grant made to Pedro De La Gar
"a. The state did not question the
grant, but 1t claimed the old surveys
under which Sullivan made claim were
not valid and hence that the land was
not properly located. The state courts
sustained the states contentious and
the supreme court took the same view.

IN MUCH DEMAND
Many Vacancies in Rural Public
Schools Throughout Territory

Between one hundred and two hun.
dred teachers are needed in rural pub.
lie schools in various parts of New
Mexico. Some of the positions which
are going begging are paying as high
as $50 per month and none of them
less than $40. The scarcity of school
teachers does not seem to be confined
to any one locality but 1t is general
all over the territory. Some of the high
salaried positions now vacant are in
Dona Ana county.
Examinations Of rural school teach
ers not holding the required territor-
ial certificates will be held this month
in the several counties of the territory
under the direct supervision of the
county school superintendent. The
examination of district school teacherS
in Santa Fe county will be held in this
city on Friday, January "a, due notice
of which has been given by County
School Superintendent John V. Con-
way.
These examinations do not require
the presence Of school teachers who
secured certificates at the recent coun-
ty institutes, but II is intended for
those who are teaching school under
permits and also to give recent arrlv-
ais in the territory who follow teach
ing as vocation a chance to secure
territorial certificates.
