MINISTER WANTS s1oo LESS
Asks 20 Continue Working for $500
Year, But Presbytery In
slsts Upon $500.

Marksboro, N. J.-One OF the inter.
esting questions that the Newton
Presbytery. in session at Washington,
will have to decide is whether Rev,
F. A. Lott of Newport, Pa, shall be
allowed to accept a pastorate of the
Presbyterian church at this place. The
only objection thus far offered to the
candidate is that he does not ask for
enough money. The presbytery has
made a rule not to appoint pastor
for the church in question at salary
less than $500 a year, whereas, Mr..
Lott is willing to accept $780,
Mr.. Lott has a daughter he wants
to educate, and he has figured out
that, with the free tuition offered to
children of ministers, he can accom-
plish his desire on the $500. That
sum is, therefore, enough for him, and
he will not ask for any more, as he
hates to be burdened with wealth.

ITALY TO RENEW ITS FORESTS.
Extensive Operations In Rea1oresta,

Years-Progress Made.

Washington.-Italy, which has suf

ruin which follows the removal of pro

Ing nations working for the conserva

going on for 40 years, and the italian

in that time
This report indicates that the Ita.
l1an government is keenly aware OF
the value of forests to the country
and that it is determined to bring its
deforested lands into forested state
as soon again as possible. To attain
this end, planting operations have
been conducted on government land to
such an extent that during the last 80
years $4,000 acres have been planted
in rs OF the provinces of Italy. OF this
area, $4,000 acres, or approximately
l0S square miles. were planted in the
year 1907 alone, causing IN outlay Of
nearly 100000 and giving employ

Reafforestation has been carried on
so vigorously that there now remains
only about $4,000 acres of government
land in need of planting. In addition
to conducting planting operations on
large scale, the Italian government
has during the last 40 years distribut.
ed over 130,000,0O0 young trees and
$4,000 pounds OF seed, an amount suf-
t1cient to restock approximately 1OO,.
600 acres OF land to the people in an
effort to encourage planting and SOW
ing by private persons AS the forest
area OF Italy amounts to only slightly
more than 100000 acres. this plant
ing by the government and private
persons amounts to approximately
one-fortieth OF the total forest area of
Italy. Further steps must be taken by
the government, however. before its
forest policy will prove the success OF
some of it's European neighbors.
Forest fires still continue to be the
cause Of heavy damage. During the
year 1907. 1924 fires were reported
with an estimated loss OF s194,4OO.
While this amount Is insignificant
when compared with the yearly loss
from fires in the United States, it is
large, relatively speaking, and would
be viewed almost as a calamity in the
better managed German forests OF
these fires, 81 were due to criminal
design, 267 to culpable negligence, 1872
to accident. and the rest to unknown
causes.
Fire, however, is not the only enc
my OF the Italian woods. The small
landowner often fells recklessly, and
sometimes with good excuse, because
OF the heavy taxation of timber lands.
Large tracts which used to be covered
by thick growth of chestnut have.
even during recent years, been strip.

Like all other countries where for

cut-over areas, but must also perfect

laws to relieve timber lands of exces.
