TO RENEW ACTIVE EFFORTS
PLANS OF ADVOCATES OF NOUN
TAIN FOREST RESERVES.

That the advocates of the federal gov
eminent establishing two immense parks
in the Appalachians of the south and the
White mountains of New England will
carry on their fight in Congress this
winter with undated vigor is indicated
by the plan to begin activities on the
third day of the coming session. Friends
of the project will come again before
the House committee on agriculture next
Wednesday. asking that the Brandegee
bill. or similar measure. authorizing
the establishment of these parks. be re-
ported favorably to the House at an early
day.
Although the Brandegee bill passed the
Senate last session, it made no progress
in the House. The project for the pur-
chase of lands to establish these reserva-
tons was given a blow. from which it
did not recover during the session. by the
House committee on the Judiciary. That
committee reported to the House that
the United States government could not
purchase lands for the purpose of con-
serving the forests of the country. The
committee allowed the proposal d chance
to live by adding that the federal gov
eminent may purchase forests or any
thing else in order, to protect the navi-
gability of streams.
Many of the arguments advanced in
the hearings before the House committee
on agriculture have been made with a
view of conserving the forests of thei
United States. Now that the project is
declared to be Illegal if taken up by the
government with that end in view, it is
desired to present arguments to show
how the establishment of these parks will
protect the navigabihty of streams oven
which the federal government has juris-;
diction.
The hearings were requested by Phillip
W. Ayres state forester o. New Hamp-:
shire Acting thereon. Representative
Charles +. Scott of Kansas. chairman of
the committee on agriculture. has called
"A meeting of that committee for next
Wednesday. in which large number of
members of the National Forestry ASsO-
citation will participate.

along the northern borders of the
United States as well as in some parts
OF Europe. where 1t Is popular. The

Its leaves are used for seasoning in

to onions by many persons because
they are much milder and more ten
der. Europeans use chives for season
Ing scrambled eggs and similar dishes
The culture of chives Is simple. Thu
plant will grow In any ordinary gar
den son. 1t is usually propagated by
division Of the roots, because 1t does
not seed readily. The roots or clumps
of roots may be purchased at moderate
prices. The clumps should be planted
In beds about nine. inches apart La
rows which are two feet apart. The
planting may be done In either spring
or autumn. The chives may also be
planted in the border of the vegetable
garden and makes an excellent perma-

thickly and form a dense green mat
