vocstss and also those who are skep-
spent in this manner is en- investment
that returns high interest:
A few years ago Judge John ii.
Scott expended considerable time aud
money upon the main road leading
from Mt. Angell to SCOTS Mills, a
distance of nearly eight miles. At
the time 1t was consideied unwise
and unnecessary. Time, however, has
developed the fact that it was one OF
the test things tor that rich section
that could possibly have been done
both for development, profit and com
fort.
During the past few years the editor
OF the Star has travelled this road and
b en accomplished Good roads have
induced drainage, tilling is frequent
and what at one time appeared to be
swampy, low oak grub waste is now
fields of luxuriant grain. The soil is
deep, Elack loan and will grow any
thing adapted to the climate. Lovely
up-to date houses are going up all
along this splendid highway: land is
increased In value; smaller farms pre-
dominate; diversity of ariculture is
on every side.
The era of low priced lands is past.
In the immediate vicinity Of Scotts
Mills are hundreds Of acres of prunes
and these acres are making money tor
their owners. The most prosperous
of the people in all this section is the
prune grewer. All these splendid
results are brought about by the in
fiuence OF one good road. This road
Is kept up properly by the residents
and adjoining farmers along the high
way, and why not? 1t is well made
and valuable to them all.

STATES COOPERATE
WITH FOREST SERVICE

State officials, associations and in
dividuals Will cooperate with the
United States Forest Service in an
attempt TO get accurate records of all
fire losses In Washington and Oregon
this summer. The Forest Service will
compile report showing by counties,
the area burned over OF merchanta BILE
timber, non. n.merchantabla timber,
and cut over land; the quantity aud
value of the tim Der destroyed, and
the cost of fighting the fires. la this
way the federal and state governments
as we'll as the public will be enabled
to obtain at once systematic infor-
nation concerning all fire losses in
these states.
Heretofore, this information has
teen only partially collected. Ihe
forest service has secured compiehen-
national forests, but from no 9th er
source. The state boards of forestf y
' In Oregon and Washington have had
reports tIom thier wal dens, but many
regions had no wardens. The state
and government statistics we're in
different form and not brought to-
gether. Consequently. although those
Interested in the subject know in a
general way that fire entails an enor-
nous loss to the community every
year, they have been unable to back
their arguments from remedial action
with any definite proof.
District Forester E. L. Allen is re.
ceiving the active help of the Oregon
State Board of Forestry, and the
Washington Forest Fire Association
10 organizing the work. The two
latter have revised their report forms
to bring out the same facts regarding
all fires. The Oregon Conservation
Association is canyassing the state tc
secure suitable men to act as fre var
dens and report Oh fires in their ter
ritory and presents their names &c
the state board for appointment. II
will also send each man post card
reminder every two weeks, with re
turn card on which lie will enter 6
few main facts about the fire. The
Washington Forest Fire Association
will collect reports from its rangers
and from other correspondents where
ii has no rangers. lhe Forest ser
vice will furnish franked envelopes
for mailing in the reports. and CON
pile the results The Washington
State Board OF Forestry has no
made any agreement as yet, but vii
undoubtedly furnish all the aid j
can.
Every Iumberman, or any one els'
who is interested in preventing fores
fires, will see the advantage in bring
ing this information before the public
and can be OF greRt assistance by Ie
porting fires iu his vicinity. Form
will be furnished on application tt
the secretary of the Oregon Stat
Board of Forestry, or, in Washing
ton, to the Washington Forest iii
Association.

Taking Public into its Confidence


Taking Public into its Confidence.
The Pennsylvania railroad has Is.
sued to the press OF the country cir.
clar relative to the method OF making
public details OF accidents occurring
on it's lines. In this circular the
company says that upon occasions OF
wrecks it is impractible for misceila-
neous employees to give out informa-
tion They have specific duties to
perform in caring for the passengers
and in reopening the line to traffic.
AS theiI duties are concerned with
only certain features of the situation,
they are not in position to know the
full facts. They are required, how
ever, to report to their superior Of
Hcers all the facts which may come
uuder their observation. All the In
fol- nation is then assembled and
reported to the company Immediately
and by the company made public.
The management of the company
realizes that upon all occasions OF
accident, it is of the greatest impor-
tance that the number and names OF
any who may be injured should be
made known Immediately. This is
all the more urgent as means OF re.
lieving the anxiety of the families
aud friends OF passengers who may
| be on the train. The railroad COM
pany, is of course, in the best posi-,
tion to obtain this information. and
the newspapers are assured that 1t
will make public such information as
it can obtain, freely and fully. IL
should be understood that there are
many phsses OF accidents, especially
regarding their causes, the facts of
which cannot be ascertained even by
the railroad company until after cNn.
siderable investigation and inquiry.
The company will, however, give
prompt publicity to all known facts.
1t is of the greatest Importance to
J both the oompany and the general
public to have authentic whatever
accounts are printed concerning the
accidents, and the co operation of the
newspapers of the country with the
railroad company will go far toward
eradicatiDg sensational stories which,
until investigated and exploded, tend
to create sorrow and anxiety among
those whose friends are known ia
have heen in accidents The com
pany has taken a step in the right
direction by those making the news
papers into it's influene, and the move
will no doubt be met with proper
spirit of appreciation on the part oi
the press.
It is to be hoped that all railroad
companies will follow the example OF
the Pennsy ylvsnia, bat the news must
be given out while it is news.

 President Taft will be in Hell ena on Oct. 27. The manage ment of the M. & N. A. road, :, we understand, has in contem- plation the making of a low rate to Helena and return for the occasion and will probably run a special train from Leslie down.

 The following is reported among the number who brazed the dust to see the elephant at Berryville Monday: Capt. Light burn and family, w. s. Hittson and family, c. B. Grim, Bert Grim, E. S. Harris and wife, Miss Corinne Burney, Miss Hat tie Scott, Mesdames Lee Smith and J. L. Russell and children. A party comprising J. w. Bair, w. G. Coxsey, Elmer Wise, Auburn and Orton Walker and Misses Fannie Nunnally and Rec Naples drove over to take in the proceedings at night.
 Irwin Whitaker is shaping his affairs to move to his Missouri farm in a short time. We re- gret to see Whit go. He is man whose heart is exactly in the right place, and if he ever hurt the community, he did it by praising it too high. He has g lofty estimate of the country and if he could have done what he intended when he came here, people might be travelling over the streets of Green Forest in l'electric cars this minute. We will always have a warm place in our heart for Irwin Whitaker
 J. H. Ramsey of Green Forest announces in The Tribune this week for County Tax Collector, subject to the action of the Dem- ocratic primary. Few men of this part of the county are better known than he, as he has been g constant resident as far back as we can remember. He has been continuously in the mercantile business in Green Forest for g quarter of century. From a point of business connection he is sev- eral years the oldest man in the town. He has always conduct ed straight forward business. His clerical ability is sufficient to take care of the office he seeks, while his claim from a political point is good strong one, he having always been g hard worker in the ranks of his party. He would make the county safe Collector.
 A quiet wedding took place at the home of the bride in Green Forest on last Sun. day morning, the contracting parties being A. R. M orehoust and Miss Ruby Nunnally. The ceremony was performed by Rev. w. H. Hatfield, immediate. ly following which the happy couple departed for the groom $ home near Eureka Springs. MT Warehouse was one of the best youngmen left unmarried in the country, and it is generally re- garded that Miss Ruby has come very close to getting first choice. while equally as much can be said for the beautiful and ac. complished young bride, whose reported failing health was only cupid's excuse for her resignation as a teacher in our public school. The hearty good wishes of all Green Forest are with Mir. anC Mrs. Morehouse as they launch out so suspicion sly upon tht hymeneal sea.
