THOMAS z. WILL.

DR.. Thomas e. VIII, secretary of the
American Forestry Association, comes
with thoughtful, informed and earnest
discussion of a question that affects
every person who lives under a roof
and uses lumber and forest products.
The problem of the preservation of our
forests has become most serious and
pressing. DR.. Will Is among the most
thoroughly informed and enthusiastic
of the defenders of this National Her
itage." His official position is a certifi.
cate Of his capacity and of access to
accurate information.
In his profusely illustrated lectures
DR.. Will discusses the effect of defor-
estation upon the welfare of the people
generally, It's influence upon drouths,
floods and agricultural and climatic
conditions, reviews the almost criminal
wholesale destruction of our great lum-
Der areas and by large collection of
lantern pictures impresses the extent
of the stupendous and appalling in
roads into the forest heritage of the
American people. Land frauds and
their promoters are plainly discussed.
Many curious and interesting views,
now impossible to duplicate, are shown.
His lectures range from the mighty for
est to the farmers wood lot, and are Of
present interest to every man who uses
fence post.
Secretary VIII is an educator and
public lecturer of many years stand
ing. He has held professorships Of
economics, political science and history
in several colleges and was, for time,
president of the Kansas State Agricul-
tural College. During the panic of

ern chautauquas with NIeH lBHE
new and absorbingly lHHA
interesting illustrat- SsIRsS
ed lectures. He Is N
naturalist of high repute, in N
dorsed by John Burroughs as
one who knows animals and
tells the truth about them.
All his life has been devoted
to the study of wild things and animal
photography. The story Of Our Wild
Neighbours" as told by Mr.. Baynes and
illustrated by hundreds of unique and
valuable pictures taken in infinite pa
thence, under hardship and often at
the risk of life and limb, affords an
evenings entertainment and offers a
fund of interesting and curious infor-
nation that holds his hearers absorbed
to it's too early close. One sits wonder
ing that so much of intense life has
multiplied and existed about our feet
unknown and unnoticed.
Mr.. Baynes has the rare faculty of
charming" wild animals. He makes
friends with the hawks. The chick
adees feed from his lips. He knows
them all, their hidden paths, secret
places and their intimate life. More
than this, he has the gift to tell their
secrets charmingly and with the enthu-
siasm of the born naturalist. His pic
lures show the home life Of the ground
sparrow with it's nest at our feet and
the inaccessible aeries of the red hawks
and the eagles.
Baynes and his lectures are new to
the middle west. That they will prove to
be as successful and as highly appre-
ciated as they have been in the proven
bially hard to please east is safe and
easy prediction. He knows how to tell
story for which there is an insstent
recent demand. His information is ac-
curate, his wit nimble, his personality
excellent and his mobile eagerness" to
bring human and animal life into closer
and kindlier relations impresses and
cOnvinces. Don't miss "Baynes, the
Wild Animal Man" And don't let the
children miss him.

good many more districts than were
represented for him on the state CEN
trail committee.
His managers assert that Foraker
cannot get over three of the Ohio dis
triets. They are counting a good deal
on the fact that most people like to get
into the band wagon before it gets too
close to the grand stand. Everybody
knows, of course, that Foraker hasn't u

the presidency. Even if he had the en-

could not expect to get more than a

His intellectual prominence, the
credit he has undoubtedly reflected
upon his state, his war record, n the
admiration the people have for a

present prices would be impossible
The five-day run here is about $4,000
against 133, 900 a week ago. There has
however, been a liberal supply every
where, and this is a factor. The Janu-
airy movement is starting in at a pace
calculated to justify the prediction
that receipts for the month will be
heavy. Shipping trade. altho showing
some contraction, is still heavier thai

The sheep market was weak, arriv-

The weeks advance of 25M50c Is
largely attributable to a moderate sup
ply. The run will round out about
6 5000. or $4,000 less than a veal ago.
Eastern demand has been good and a
decided factor in making prices. A
continuous string of eastern orders
shows that dead mutton is selling at
a profit. With moderate receipts next
week the list ought to hold its own or
make more gains, but the danger sig
nal is flying from the roof OF the sheep

that but little stuff is crowding on the

that liquidation has run its course.
