.P|NCHOT EXPLAINS FORESTRY
 ATTITUDE TOWARD MINES

and leaves conclusions to the com mon sense of the reader Before a prospector can explore it (laAd in the national forests) me must get the consent of some one of Mr. Pinchots assistant foresters. And as none of Pinchot's men are practi- cal miners, consent to explore and prospect is more often refused than granted The newspaper gives these facts to its readers with a good conscience. They are not ex- aggerated. They are not imaginary. They are not campaign arguments. They are true
 Again in your editorial of October Is you say "Prospectors were denied permission to stake claims" tTheEe ds mo eSaggaration in this statement Every word of it is em- phattcally true"
 The fact is that no regulation of the forest service has ever denied the right Of any prospector to stake the claim where and as he chose, in any national forest in the state of Colo rado or elsewhere. No prospector has any need to ask permission of anyone to stake claims in the national forests. The law of June l, 1897, quoted on page 2is of the last edition of The Use Book says: Nor shall anything herein prohibit any person from en- tering upon such forest reservations for all proper and lawful purposes in- cluding that of prospecting. locating, and developing the mineral resources thereof: Provided. That such persons comply with the rules and regulations
Bisbee daily review., 1908-11-11

covering such forest reservations" No rules and regulations of the for est service have ever interfered with the right to prospect, locate, and de Yelop mineral claims. The forest ser vice has done its best to make the law and the regulations known by printing them in the manual which tells how to use the national forests,
 Even if the forest service desired to prevent prospecting in the national forests, and it emphatically does not, 1t could not do so under the law. If any forest officer has ever undertaken to prevent prospecting in Colorado or elsewhere, he was himself breaking the law and disobeying the regula- tions of the forest service, and no such case has ever been brought to my attention.
 The fact that the forests Of Colo rado are freely open to prospecting may be verified .n a moment by refer ence to the statutes of the United States. The iastiest consultation ot accessible authorities would have pre- vented any mistake. So far from tho national forests of Colorado being closed to prospecting. numerous min erai locations have been and will con- tinue to be made in them, as the min ing men of Colorado well know.
 Your editorial of October 13 says: Nail these facts down hard. Test their truth for yourself. You will find that they are true. They are vitaI facts. too" The regulations of the forest serVice"-not the laws of the United States, remember-pro- vide that a mining prospector can not make claim valid unless he ca1l prove to the forest service that both the character of the mineral and the manner of its occurrence are such as to warrant expenditure for develop ment and reasonable expectation of a valuable discovery"
 The fact is that the regulations of the forest service have nothing what ever to do with the validity of a min ing claim is determined by laws of the United States, and decisions of the courts and the department of the interior interpreting those laws. The law of February 1, 1905, quoted on pages PIT and 218 of The Use Book specifically excepts from the duties 1- be performed by the forest service CD the national forests any connection with "euch laws as affect tfe survey ing, prospecting. relinquishing, recon veyfng. certifying or patenting'' of any lands within their boundaries. All of these duties are retained by the de- partmsnt Of the interior and are exer- cised by that department under the laws of the United States.

But 1t is the duty of the forest service, under the law, to report to the department of the interior. upon Us request, the actual facts on the ground concerning any claim or locs.- tinn within a national forest, to en- a1le tho department of the interior to fbr:h judgment as to the validity ot such claim or lt cation.

 Your editorial of October 15 says, with reference to the 16,000, ,000 acres of national forests in Colorado, that Tt is impossible to stake a mineral claim in that immense mineralized area Such are the facts."
 revert to your editorial of October 16 in which you say: Coal lands were withdrawn from entry Prospectors were denied permission to stake claims. Farmers were refused irriga- tion rights. Settlers were refused nearly 2,000 applications for home stead entries and mining claims on those 16,000,000 acres have been re- fused by the forestry service" There is no exaggeration in this statement. Every work of 1t is em- phatically true"
 A statement was given out by the forest service on June 1, 1908, which showed that during the nine months ending March 31, 1908. unfavorable reports had been submitted by the forest service for the department Of the interior, for it's consideration as should be ordered by that department, In only 1885 cases of all classes In all of the national forests in the United States. This statement has evidently been perverted and made to apply to Colorado alone, which. has less than onetenth of the national area of. the United States.

CATTLE AS A SIDE ISSUE.
Probable That They Pay a Larger
Profit Than Cattle Otherwise Raised.

1t is probable that cattle as a side
issue pay larger comparative profits
than cattle raised in any other way.
The farmer that raises small bunch
OF good calves can frequently feed
them at almost no cost. The statisti-
clans that figure on the cost of rails
ing beef cattle always put in the cost
OF the pasturage at a certain fixed
price. But in the case of the pasture
being otherwise understocked, the
feeding of bunch of steers actually
costs nothing. On many of our farms
unused opportunities go to waste.
These opportunities include acres of
corn stalks in the fall of the year;
rough grasses that the smaller stock
do not eat; pasture grasses in excess
OF what the other stock will eat;
silage in a greater abundance than
can be eaten by the dairy cows Some
times these opportunities include un-
used grazing areas in the woodlands.
The farmer to utilize all of these let's
some of his calves grow up into
beeves. The men that think they
know that beeves do not pay cannot
convince the farmer that he Is not
ahead under the aforementioned con-
ditions.

CARE OF THE FACE

IN TREATMENT.
Simple Home Remedies Regularly

The most common fault with the
woman who treats her complexion
at home is her lack of perseverance.
The woman with a fat purse patron
lies a beauty parlor and pays some
one to preserve for her. Nine out
of ten cases she could accomplish the
same result at home with simple
remedies if only she would spend a
little more time regularly before her
own toilet table. Do not imagine
that sDasmodic applications of RENE
dies will bring good results. 1t is the
patient, regular application that, in
due tine, will bear fruit.
AT this season of the year when
much suffering is caused by the blus-
tering winds, an ounce of prevention
is worth more than the proverbial
pound of cure. Before going out, some
healing cream should be rubbed into
the skin, then pure hygienic powder
should be busted over the face Scent
ed soap should never be used. 1t is
not good for the skin at any season
of the year, but especially harmful
just now. Always battle the face in

TO PRESERVE PAPER PATTERNS.
Fold Them Flat and Place in Large
Envelopes.

On account Of the Inconvenience
of getting wrinkled tissue paper pat
terms into the envelopes in which they
have been purchased, it Is better to
fold them fiat and place in large en-
Velopes in which magazines or large
catalogues have been received. The
directions can be preserved by cutting
the envelope which came with the
pattern down one side and across
the bottom and pasting it on tAe large
envelope. In this way the directions
can always be conveniently referred
to, and there is space on the reverse
side of the envelope for notes as to
changes needed in the pattern for
different members of the family.
Envelopes of uniform size can be
made to hold patterns by taking a
piece Of stiff cardboard about the size
that would give sufficient space for
directions, and lay it on wrapping
paper, folding the edges of the paper
over in imitation of the large envel-
opes, and paste, leaving end or side
open, as preferred, but do not fold so
tight as to prevent the cardboard from
being easily slipped out. Small en-.
Velopes to hold seeds can be made in
the same manner.

MAKING suTTER ON THE FARM.
Two Prime Essentials to Success Ia
This Branch of Dairying.


There are two prime essentials in
making butter on the farm profitable
business. In the first place, one must
have plenty Of pure, cold water; and
then good enough grade must be
turned out to make and hold custom
ers. The trouble with nine out Of
every ten farm homes is they are not
equipped to take care of milk and
cream. When one goes into this work
to make money, better put up a milk
room, where pure water may be had
from pumping or from a spring Con-
crete floor and walls may now be built
as cheaply as with lumber, and 1t is
great deal better than lumber Don't
stop here. A barrel churn and a but
ter maker will be necessary In turning
out a uniform product. 1t looks easy
simply separating the cream, churn-
ing till the butter comes, and sailing
and the trick is done. That is where
SO many fail. The cream must be
churned at the right temperature; it
must be neither too sweet nor too
sour. Working and sailing butter to
secure uniform color and flavor is
very nice art. Don't try to learn to do 1t
infallibly in two or three weeks, but by
all means don't practice on your Gus.
toners. That means loss. 1t is better
to wait two or three months, until you
are sure of your quality before you
seek customers. And before you ship,
find out how your commission man or
private customers prefer to have their
butter put up. Sometimes the pack
age means difference of two or
three cents a pound.

A GOOD BARN.
This Is the Only Kind That It Pays
to Build.

1t pays better to build good barn
than it does a poor barn. 1t will pay
the farmer better to take time to
think over the matter Of building
than 1t will to rush in and build a
barn that will become rickety in 20
years. Time slips away rapidly, and
the poorly built barn deteriorates
rapidly If 1t is so built that it will
have life of not more than 20 years,
then five per cent. must be charged
off as depreciation each year, and this
Is equivalent to an interest of that
amount, which has to be added to the
interest on the original investment
This will sometimes make total of
more than ten per cent, which is too
much money for a man to pay out an
rually on any structure. Therefore,
says Farmers Review, the part of wis
dom Is to build for permanency. Ma
terials, plans and labor should be such
that the barn will have a life of from
30 to 100 years. In that case the an.
nual charge for depreciation will be
less than two per cent. The poorly
built barn will soon take on an ap-
pearance that will detract from the
value of the farm, in case the farm
has to be sold.

1t is good idea to fatten the hogs

Many farmers feed the SOW too

Black Bear q Thief

The black bear of the north is a
rowing animal, continually shifting
from one place to another at all sea-
sons except the few months in which
he curls up and lies dormant like the

stinctively to know where to go to
find blackberries, beech nuts, succu-
lent roots and other food in which 1t
delights. The bear roots up the
ground under beech trees, much as
hog would, in search for beech
nuts.
The bear discovers where the chip

in the ground for the winter supply

Dodder as a Farm Pest.

The matter of clean seed is far
greater one than most farmers have
suspected While they have been
buying farm seeds at low prices they
have at the same time been buying
with those cheap seeds many kinds
of weed seeds that will prove to be
great injury to the crops of the
future. One of the worst weed pests
is dodder, which comprises long list
of parasitic plants. At the present
time dodder Is most troublesome in
the fields Of clover and alfalfa The
seeds Of the clover and the alfalfa,
and the thread-like plant of dodder
grows with the growth Of the host
plants, sapping their nourishment and
finally destroying the host plants or
at least preventing them from seed
ing. The very first step in control
ling the dodder nuisance is to prevent
the introduction Of the dodder seeds
with commercial seeds.

Some Costly Funerals.

Some foreign papers have been dis.
cussing the cost of the recent funeral
of King Carlos and the crown prince
of Portugal, incidentally recalling the
reported outlay on other royal OBJ
sequies. Tit-Bits says that no mod.
ern ruler has been buried at the cost
of Alexander the Great, at whose fu-
neral $5000,000 was spent, part of the
money going toward providing a solid
gold coffin for the dead ruler. Emperor
William of Germany was buried at a
cost of s125, 900, and the last rites of
Grand Duke Nicholas used up about
100000. At the funeral Of President
Carnot $4,000 was spent on flowers
alone. When the duke of Wellington
was laid to rest, in 1852, $3.50, 1000 was
spent, giving him what has been de-
scribed as the most splendid funeral

Embroidered Belts.

New belts of white scrim are heay-
lily embroidered in padded roses of on-
broidery cotton. They are quite a
novel fashion and the loosely woven
scrim is such an excellent material
for the purpose. Betting may also be
embroidered in the same way, though
for the latter, flatter flowers-forget-
me-nots, primroses, daisies-are more
satisfactory. Belts are so small and
narrow that it takes very little time
to ornament them in most elaborate
designs, and they may be carried
around so easily that no time need be
wasted, for the work may always be
on hand.
