Washington, Sept 24.-Forest ex-
pertinent stations will soop be estab-
llshed in a number of the national
forests states Of the west, according to
plans which have just been completed
by the United States forest service.
These new stations are expected to
do the same for the development OF
American forests as agricultural ex'
pertinent stations have done for the
improvement of the country's forms.
One station Already.
Az a first step in this work an e.
pertinent station has already been es-
tablished on the Coconino national
forest in the southwest, with head
quarters at Flagstaff, Arizona Sta
tons in other national forests will be
established later. and It is the inten-
ton ultimately to have at least one
experiment station In each Of the
silvicultural regions OF the west
Maintain Model Forests.
One Of the most important parts Of
the work Of the new experiment sta
tons will beStthe maintenance Of
model forests typical of the region.
These areas win furnish the most val
uabse and instructive object lessons
for the public In general. for profes-
sional foresters, llmbermen, and own
ers OF forest land, and especially to
the technical and administrative Of

We know 10000 are sold every

1t is a wonder.
1t has proved by years of use
that no heater at twice the price
approaches it for %radiating heat,
for holding fire, requiring SO little
care, never giving trouble-and
cutting down the coal bill one

And the price of heat for the

isfactory reproduction Of the yellow
pine is OF the greatest practical impor-
lance to the southwest, since the vel,
low pine, which is by far the most
valuable tree there, is in many cases
not forming a satisfactory second
growth.
Methods to BE Followed.
The study will be carried on largely
by mean of sample plots, which will
be laid out for future observations to
determine the effects of grazing, of the
different methods of cutting and dis
posing of the brush. and of other fac
tors on the success of reproduction.
Lack Of Persistence.
In the United States considerable re-
search work has already been done in
connection with forest problems, but
the chief trouble SO far has been the
lack of persistence and ipermanence
which has characterized the work, and
failure frequently to consider all the
factors which r involved.
Specially Trained Men.
Inc new system PROVIDES LOT the
permanent assignment in a given re-
gion Of specially trained men who will
have an opportunity to become thor
oughly familiar with their region, and
the work will thus be conducted with
the greatest effectiveness and least
expense.
Evedy-Day Problems
The work will be not only scientific
in character but will also be extreme.
ly practical, and will aim in every case
to solve problems OF most Importance
to the lumberman, the forester, and the
people as a whole. Valuable results
will undoubtedly be obtained In this
way which were not possible under
the old system of general observations.

FOREST FIRES

DETROIT. Mich. Oct. 1.-THE
mass Of forest fires that have been
sweeping over northern Michigan.
and which yesterday totally destroyed
the town of Metz, are today sweep
ing the country uncontrolled and
threatening to wipe out OF existence
other towns. According to the lat
est advices received the fires are at
their worst in the counties of Che
boygan, Presquisle, Alpena, and the
lower peninsula. The flames we're
famed by a strong southwest wind.
and thousands OF acres of timber
lands are destroyed. The town Of
Alpena. on Thunder bay, is again
threatened, and the citizens and
inhabitants are making a brave fight
to save their city. Cheboygan on the
south channel of Mackinac strait is
also threatened, and should a heavy
wind rise It seems almost certain that
they viii be doomed to a fate like
that OF the town of Metz. How
many OF the inhabitants persisted in
this fire, will not be learned with
any certainty for a week or so. The
list OF dead up to the present is as
