West by the United States Forest
Service, a big piece of work which
has just been completed, involves
a complete change in the ma

of the reorganization, the Forest
Service force at the headquarters
in this city has been reduced to

additional burden upon q force

work has been accomplished on

particularly remarkable because
it involved no material delay in

we have been working towards

not done it sooner, is because we
did not have q sufficient number
of trained men to equip the Dis
tricts.
The District organization will
mean much freer use of the Ma

The W. G. T. U. of Kellettville has not
been idle, but has recently seen some
specially good work ACCOMPLISHED. A
psrlor meeting was held at the home of
our President, Mrs. Ellen Catlin, Nov. 8,
1908. Mrs. Lilly Dotterer, Superintend-
ent of Parlor Meetings, conducted the
devotionals, after which the State report,
sent by Mrs. Huling, delegate from Tio-
nesia, was read. A great interest was
taken in this report and all present de-
clared it most excellent. A rising vote
of thanks was rendered Mrs. Huling for
1t. All expressed regret that she was un-
able to be with us and read it for us. An
excellent lunch was served and the ladies
all felt that 1t was good to be one of the
w. G. T. U. The w. C. #. u. of May

PROBABLY it is not wise to check i'm
migration and get it must be admitted
that too many laborers are coming here
from abroad, says the Franklin News.
We have not enough employment, at
times, for our own residents, and the
custom of coming here from Europe,
working during good times and then CO.
ing home again puts the burden of much
of European mismanagement of govern
ment and industries upon the American
people. The policy of employing Ameri-
can-born, or at least English-speakiDg
and naturalized workmen will do some
thing to discourage the natives of other
lands who contemplate coming here.

To FLORIDA goes the distinction of get

of the Mississippi river. President
Roosevelt has just signed proclamation
setting aside and naming the Ocala Ma
tional Forest in Marion county in east
ern Florida, and another proclamation
creating the Dakota National Forest in
Billings county, North Dakota. Inas-
much as the last named national forest is
the first in North Dakota, the two procla-
nations add two more states to the list of
those wherein land will be put under
scientific forest administration. There
are now nineteen states, and Alaska, hav-
ing national forests.

passing the regular appropriation bills,
but Presdent-elect Taft has said he will

shortly after his inauguration for the pur.

tariff. He has also promised an imme-

banks and postal parcel delivery. The

but is puzzled to know where we should
get man big enough to fill Mr.. Knox's

it. What's the matter with the Editor of
