The Colorado forest reserves are in
District Number Two and the names of
the people, who will have charge of
the work, have been announced. The
Offices were opened in the various cities
on the first of December and according
to their plans great benefit is
sure to result to the people of Colorado
OF course, the forest depart mcnt does
not claim to be able to stop nature from
covering the Plateau Valley country
with n heavy blanket of snow, nor do
they claim to be responsible for the
high price of hay and very few will
accuse the forest department of com
pelling the stockmen to keep their cat
tie on the hills after winter has set in
1t is also asserted by some of the cattle
men of the country, that if the forest
reserve system had been in vogue some
q .ars ago, threr would be better range
in the Sweet Water country today. but
the big cattle, men of MOntrose and
other sections shipped their cattle into
the Sweet Water country and today
rome Of the Eagle county stockmen are
moaning the fact that the forest re
serve system did not come few years
sooner.
Each National Forest District will
be in charge of District Forester The
work at district headquarters will be
distributed among four Offices, Opera
tion Grazing Silviculture, and Pro
ducts, each equipped with men of special
training for the work of their office.
The Office of Operation will be charg-
cd with responsibility for the protection
Of National Forest for the building of
/ roads, trails, and other permanent i'm.
provements upon them, for the organi.
zation of the force on National Forests,
and with the supervision of all business
relating to the special use of National
Forest resources. The Office of Silvi.
culture will have supervision of the
free use and sale of timber from Ma
tional Forests, planting upon them, and
will conduct forest studies on National
Forests as well as in cooperation with
private owners in the District. The
oface of Grazing will supervise graz.
ing business in the District, except for
e actual fixing of allowances, periods,
rates, and will make studies look.
ing to the improvement of the forage
crop on National Forest. The Office of
Products will make both independently
and in cooperation with private owners
studios leading to more profitable use
of timber on and off National Forests
within the District and to their pre-
servative treatment.
From the District Foresters down, the
personnel of the District offices is made
up men picked for their proved capa
city, for their thorough training, and
for their experience in the West. Most
of them are men who not only have
worked in tho West after they enter
ed the Service, but who lived in
the West before they took up the Gov
ernment forest work. Many of them
arc men formerly employed on the Ma.

COULD SEE NOTHING UNFAIR.
Spectator Understood Game Of Poker
as Played in Tin Can.

Henry E. Dixey, the actor, was talk
ing about the terrific fight that &C.
Cured recently on an Atlantic liner
between two fat and elderly poker
players. 1T seems" said Mr.. Dixie,
with a smile, that the first man lost
$1,000 to the second and paid up. The
second then lost $1,150 to the first, and
refused to pay up. No wonder there
was a fight, eh? If this sort of thing
keeps up, the smoking room morals of
a liner will fall as low as the gam
bling-room morals of Tin Can. A ten
derfoot once visited Tin Can and
watched with interest the poker play.
From saloon to saloon he passed,
Everything was wide open, and very
gay and lively. But as he looked on
at a poker game that had no limit
the tenderfoot suddenly frowned. He
had seen the dealer slip himself four
aces from the bottom Of the pack.
Gracious powers whispered the ten
d%erfoot, excitedly clutching the sleeve
ofthe man next to him, did you notice
that?' Notice what?' asked the other.
Why, that scoundrel in the red shirt
just dealt himself four aces The
other looked at the t~enderfoot calmly
Well, wasn't it his deal? he said"

Moberly Democrat: "There ap-
to be many people in this land of
trials and fluctuations who are
very much perturbed at having a
bill presented to them. We con-
TESS it has a tendency to disturb
ones equanimity if we do not
have the money to pay it, but un-
der other conditions there seems
to be no reasonable reason for get
ting out of humor about it. Ger
tainly no one buys anything with
out expecting to pay for it, and in
instances on demand. If there
happens to be an error in a bill
then some of them act as if they
wanted to kick the roof off the
sky. They do not stop to think
that the man who makes no mis-
stakes does no business. Some
act, if a small error is found, as If
they thought the most reputable
merchant was trying to rob them.
Some will say, 81 don't want any
duns sent to me-" There is just
one way to avoid this: it is to pay
clsh. 1t is no disgrace to be ask
ed to pay a bill, be it great or
small. If one hasn't the money to
pay, it doesn't do any good to get
out OF humor about it. No bust
ness man wants a cent more than
is due him and will always cheer
fully correct any mistakes, but he
is entitled to what is due him if il
can be met and there is no use OF
sense in getting huffy about it
when he does. II you are inclin-
to feel this way about a bill, take
a second thought and realize how
foolish it is"
