Mormonism in Utah got a severe Jolt
Wheh the announcement was made By
Dr. COOK and Commander Peary that
the north pole country had been dis
covered and found 10 be nothing more
than bleak desert OF ice
Since the beginning OF MormOnism
the followers have chung 10 the theory
OF the land about the pole being oc-
cupied by the descendants Ok the ten
tribes OF Israel who left Palestine a
few centuries before Christ and tray
eled in a northerly direction for a
year and a half
Through a series OF remarkable dis
coveries and revelations the Nor
mons claimed 10 have located the de-
scendants of the ten. tribes at the
north pole. which must surely have
been their stopping place if they trav-
eled north from Palestine for year
and half
To confirm the theory that the de-
scendants. probably many millions in
number, were in the north pole coun-
try, the books OF Isaiah and Jeremiah
were referred 10 by the Mormon ell
ders and missionaries In these books
many references are made TO the
Lords people Of the north and how
they would be brought down from
the north"
Josephus, the Jewish historian. is
sponsor for the statement that the
ten tribes went north year and a

ati0ns the MoTmons drafted the story

Of the Lord with the Mormons
The ten tribes were the chosen peo-
pie OF the Lord in the early days,
while the Mormons claim 10 be the
chosen people OF the latter days. and
for that reason they call themselves
Latter Day Saints.
sense OF protection always has
been felt by the Mormons IN the
teachings that in the day when they
were in the sorest need OF help from
the opponents Of their religion the
north pole tribes would march down
20 Utah and combine forces with the
Mormons.
Led by the Lord. the two armies OF
saints would be world power. and
all other religions would fall before
the progress Of the army of the
Lord"
With the discovery Of the pole and
the failure OF the discoveries TO To-
cate the missing tribes. Mormonism is
suffering considerable ridicule from
those who often have listened TO the
Mormon elders staunchly advocating
the north pole theory.
II is up to the teachers to arrange
a new account OF the whereabouts OF
the ten tribes and their descendants.
No explanation has been offered as
yet by the president and chief reye
lator of the church

Federal Report.

Washington. Special: Conditions
OF the crops in foreign countries as
reported TO the Department OF Agri-
culture indicate that the European
harvest has generally surpassed ex-

droughts In July. fallen below the pre-
harvest estimates. The wheat crop
OF Hungary has also failed TO give
even the modern results looked for a
month ago, but the other crops In that
country have exceeded estimates.
The latest forecast OF the probable
yield in Russia indicates a generally
good harvest. Harvest weather was
favorable and supplies are said TO be

This year has been unusually favor
able for barley and oats Hungary
indications point 10 the largest crop
on record for both these cereals, as
we'll as for corn.
The drought in Russia and Rouma-
MIA has caused a considerable decline
in the prospects for corn.
The hop crop of England is serious
ly endangered by blight and low
yield is predicted
Estimates of the worlds probable
wheat crop have been published during
the month by two English trade
papers and by the Hungarian Ministry
OF Agriculture. AS compared with
last year the estimates show a gain
OF from 1S5.OO0.0O0 10 270.OOO, 900
bushels In the case of wheat. For
corn an increase of PCS. 5000 bush
els and for barley a gain of $4,000
600 bushels are indicated by the esti-
mates OF the Hungarian Ministry.
Oats show the enormous increase of
$50 100000 bushels. while rye is
placed at only 24.00O.000 bushels
above last years production.

WASTING OUR TIMBER.
Government Expert Says Forests Are
Being RuthIessly Destroyed.

Washington Special: A startling sit.
uation has developed as the result OF
a taking OF stock OF the forestry re-
sources OF this country. according 10
Treadwell Cleveland. Jr., expert In the
bureau OF Industry, in a bulletin Just
made public, entitled THE Status OF
Forestry in the United States"
IL has shown, Mr. Cleveland declares.
that We are still destroying the forest
as we use IL; that we are taking from
1t every year three and half times as
much wood as is added by the new
growth. II has been shown that less
than onethird OF the growing trees
felled by the lumbermen Is ever used
at all, so that twO-thirds of the timber
cut Is simply destroyed. II has been
shown that one-eleyeuth Of all forests
IS swept by FIRE every year, and that
on the average since 1870 forest fires
have yearly cost S5O.O00.000 in timber
and fifty lives.
