That slogan is heard in so many
different forms lately that some sys-
tematic study of the conditions Civ
ing Keokuk undesirable citizens will
be made next week-after the city
election, as there is no politics in it,
and there is desire to keep politics

What is the proper attitude of the
good citizens toward the undesirable
citizens?
What class of undesirable citizens
can be cured, and what class is in
durable and should be simply squelch-
ed?
What is the best solution of the
ignorance in which the children of the
undesirable citizens grow up and the
methods of schooling them-two most
important problems?
How can the children of the unde-
sirable citizens, being reared in homes
that are novels or bells, be trained
into good citizens?
What can be done to stop the train
ing of boy thieves by fences and other
crooks masquerad ng as junk dealers?

More thorough knowledge OF actual
forest conditions has brought a wide
realization of the importance OF the
forest In the life OF the nation" says
Treadwell Cleveland. Jr., in speaking
OF the progress OF forestry for the
last year in the Year Book OF the
Department OF Agriculture.
Enough is now known TO make i'm.
perative a complete change in the
methods OF forest use. and the ways
In which this change may best be
brought about are discussed with
equal interest by the specialist and
.Se man in the street.
National welfare. as we'll as indi
dual comfort, is seen TO be depend
,nt upon forest conservation. To this
Uetter knowledge and surer insight
Is mainly due the progress which
forestry has made in the past year.
Unprecedented forest fires served
a similar purpose. so that the lesson
which they taught. In spite of It's ter
rife cost. will probably pay for f..
self. With a unanimity never BE-.
fore paralleled the people Of the coun.
try are demanding that a stop be put
TO forest waste and destruction.
The more striking lines OF ad.
vancement in forestry in 1908 were
the following:
"n Through appropriate educa.
tional channels, public interest in for.
est problems was secured more di.
rectly and effectively than ever be.
fore. Especially valuable was the
work begun In the schools. from the
primary grades to the colleges. The
press aided materially in making
clear the need and purpose Of forest
conservation.
"(2D The management OF the Ma.
tiOnal Forests was more scientific.
and at the same time more satisfac.
tory from a business point OF view
and more useful to the public, than
ever before.
"tD The States displayed a keen.
er interest and a liveller activity in
forest matters, and State legislatures
either passed or considered bills In
which advanced provisions were
made for forest protection from fire
and unjust taxation and for regulat-
ing the use Of private forest property
in the interest OF the public welfare.
"D A partial census taken amen.
private forest owners furnished proof
that the practice OF private forestry
is extending more rapidly than was
supposed. particularly among those
who in their businesses are them.
