the experiment does turn out this way
1t is probable that IN this yellow pine
region where the soil is liable to dry
out and natural reproduction is poor,
the brush win be scattered over the
ground in logging operations on the
national forests hereafter. Wherever
the danger from fire is great, ,tNwever,
the brush will have to be i..ed and
burned even though this method may
be less favorable to reproduction The
essential consideration il to prevent
the brush on cut-over lands from being
fire menace. In most types OF for
est. slashings are menace for years
after logging unless the brush is dis.
posed of. The burning of brush ON
cut-oyer land is becoming a common
practice. not only by the forest service
but by lumbermen on their own lands
lr fact, In some of the eastern states
the burning of brush after logging is
made compulsory by law.

FOREST SERVICE EXPERIMENTS

is yellow pine reproduction better

which the forest service hopes to an

which have just been started on the

The primary object of disposing o,

some types of forest. particularly in
the Douglas fir forests, it serves an
other very beneficial purpose, that is.
II promotes the natural seeding nm of
the area and the starting of another
crop OF Douglas fir. In the yellow
pine forests. however, such as are
round over in eastern Oregon and
washington and in the southwest the
effect of burning brush may be detr,.
mental rather than helpful to the
young growth. In these semi.arid re-
gions the soil dries out very RAPIDLY
and natural reproduction of yellow
pine is in some localities very poor on

MILToN, Oct. 28th.-E. G. Holland, {
prosperous farmer, aud his 2l-year.o'c
son, Rufus, were drowned in Broadkilr
River yesterday morning when a small
skiff in which they were riding was up
set in midstream.
The father and son had been fishing
and had rowed up from the Lewss River
into the Broadkiin. At the jetty they
met the steamer Marie Thomas, com
manded by Captain Tracey, on her way
from Philadelphia to Milton.
To make better time they hailed for q
tow and soon had rope made fast and
we're pulled up the river by the steamer.
AT a small creek, near their home,
where they wanted to cast OF, the elder
man stepped to the bow OF the boat to cast
off the rope. His weight and the rate Of
speed at which they were going, combined
to push the nose Of the little craft under
water and sink it.
The two men we're, wearing heavy gum
boots an they went overheard cIasped in
each others arms Neither came up.
The steamer was stopped and the crew
searched quarter OF an hour for traces OF
them. Men are graphing for the bodies,
but with the strong tide ct this point it il
feared they will not be recovered.
H, llsnd is the fourth one of his family
to drown in the past year.

USE OF THE MAILS

"Aside from the danger Of los
ing money and valuables sent
through the mail as ordinary
matter, it must be borne in mind
that the mailing Of mcney-and
especially coins-in envelopes is
a temptation to some of the men
who have the handling of letters.
''In the first place it is not good
business sense to mail money,
and in the second place 1t is not
fair to place temptation in the
way ofany man. Although there
is no excuse to be offered by men
who tamper with letters-and
they should be punished when
ever caught-it yet remains that
it is unwise and foolish to use the
mails for the transportation of
money. The government pro.
vides post flee orders and
stamps and they can be used with
safety, although it is better to
even avoid the sending of stamps
to any considerable extent by
means Of an ordinary letter.
Then there is the registered let
ter scheme, which surrounds
every letter or package so re-
corded with checks that are hard
to overcome. Every registered
letter is receipted for whenever il
changes hands in the course of
transmission, and it is difficult for
any man in the employ Of the
Post Office Department to ab
stract either the letters entire or
their contents. The use of
checks is even better than post
Office orders or registered letters.
"The public generally should
bear in mind the fact that when
letters containing money are
mailed the risk is assumed solely
by the sender. The government
is in no way responsible for the
loss of unregistered letters. and
there is no redress. With regis,
tered letters there is a chance to |
recover something if money or
valuables are lost in transmission. |
The only safe rule to follow is to
do away with the mailing of
money or valuables as ordinary
mail matter. "-Norning Ne,0s.

yISTT YOUR SCHOOLS

Yon hear Q great deal about
our schools, talk much about
them, think some about them,
and peradventpre Wonder not a
little nore about them than if
they we're in China. How maly
heads of families, parents, busi-
ness men, men of minds. ever
cross the threshold of the school
room? How many ever offer a
word of encouragement to teacher
'or scholar and let them know by
your presence, at least occasion
ally, in the school room that you
are an interested party, really
desirous that they should pres.
per. and that you have their best
welfare at heart ? How many
have personally recognized the
head Of the school, she who has
the training of the mind. and the
building of and establishing the
character of your boy or glFlG
How many have kindly counseled
and advised with her, showing
you are with her in the great
work, wishing her well, and
cheering with a "God speed. !"
How few can answer IN the afir-
native, and yet you often hear
of the school and feel that it is.
not what it should be, and what
you wish it was. Will it help it
to be constantly finding fault,
continually growing and de.
nouncing it with almost every
breath and when some trivial or
even grave mistake is made will

parade the same before the
public.
Things, are not often just as
we would like to have them, and |
surrounding circumstances not
always as we imagine or hear
they are, and very often if we
know the exact condition and
state of affairs our minds and
opinions would be the reverse to
what they were without a BnoWl.

Now this is merely offered as .
hint, and while we presume
many will read it, it is hoped
some will think about it, and at
least few be induced TO act upon
it and visit our schools at least
occasionally.
