MAKES PROGRESS
IN FOREST PRESERVATION

Kentucky, which is one of the chief
hardwood producing states in the
Union, and the first state in the prod
duction OF yellow poplar, is making
good progress in the movement for
the preservation OF its forests. In
1906 the Legislature enacted the law
providing for the state Board of Agri-
culture, Forestry and immigration.
During the following winter the Board
asked and received the cooperation
OF the United States Forest Service
in a study Of the forest conditions or
the state This work was begun two
years ago and an examination OF haif
the area of forest land in the state
has been completed. The result OF
the first years work, covering the
eleven most eastern counties of the
state is published in the Kentucky
Handbook, 19O6-07. The second re-
port, now in the hands of the State
Board of Agriculture. covers forty
eight counties, largely in the coal
mining regions OF the state. When
this investigation is completed Ken

Gates that the people of the state re-
alize that the ultimate solution of the
impending timber scarcity must, for
the farmer. depend largely on how
he handles his individual timber re-
sources. and that there is no better
way than for him to consider the
woodlot as a bank account. using the
interest when constantly accruing,

able end
The second report of the Forest
Service suggests forest law. Among
its most important features is pro-
vision for the appointment of a State
Forester The wisdom of this is evil
dent since only by the appointment Of
| a State Forester can the work in CO.
operation with the Forest service be
maintained and carried to a successful
conclusion. Until such time. however,
as the State of KENTUCKY is ready

state.
Kentucky has always been rich in
forest resources. but like many other
states has reached the point where

vainIy Seek Health in Southwest.
According to a statement of the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis fully 1880
persons hopelessly diseased with
tuberculosis annually come to die in
the states of California, Arizona, New
Mexico, Texas and Colorado, most of
them by order of their physicians. The
statement, which is based upon the
testimony of well-known experts, and
all valuable statistics, shows that at
least SO per cent. of those who go to
the southwest every year for their
health are so far advanced in their
disease that they cannot hope for
cure in any climate, under any cir
cumstances. More than this, at least
60 per cent. of these advanced cases
are so poor that they have not suffi-
cient means to provide for the proper
necessaries of life, which means that
ABS consumptives are either starved
to death or forced to accept charitable
relief every year.

Mississippi Live Stock and Dairy Asso.


The Mississippi Live Stock Associa-
ton, organized in September, 1907, and
the Mississippi Dairy Association, or
ganized in October, 1908, held a joint
meeting at the Agricultural College on
August Goth, during the annual round
up. Director Lloyd gave the live stock
and dairy interests an entire day on the
program. 1t was by far the largest at
tendance ever recorded of these excellent
organizations, and the interest was all
that could be desired. Those who had
devoted time and money in the attempt
to effect an organization of the live stock
interests were much gratifed at the out
come of the netting.
One of the most important actions
taken was the consolidation of the as
sociations into one body. The member
ship was largely the same and the ends
being striven for identical. The merged
association will hereafter be known as
the Mississippi Live Stock and Dairy
Association.
Officers elected for the next year are
as follows:
President-Dr TAFT Butler, Starkville

the members were discussed at length,
the most important, however, being the
cattle tick and it's eradication. After
following resolution was passed, asking
for aid from the Legislature in the way
of an appropriation for tick eradication
work.
"That in view of the recent serious
losses in the State from contagious dis
eases of animals, such as hog cholera,
CHAMBERS, etc., and the enormous annual
loss of over $2,5OO,ooo, caused by the
cattle tick, which so seriously retards the
development and lessons the profits of
live stock raising in the State, we re-
spectfully petition the Legislature at its
next regular session to appropriate at
least $4,000 for the use of the Live
Stock Sanitary Board, in order that
these diseases may be exterminated at
the earliest possible date"
For the purpose of allowing counties
interested to cooperate in the work of
graduating disease in general and the
cattle tick in particular, the following
resolution was passed:
"That in order to more successfully
combat the ravages of the cattle tick
and other contagious diseases of animals,
we respectfully petition the Legislature
at its next regular session to enact a
law authorizing the county boards of
supervisors to appropriate funds to as
sist the Live Stock Sanitary Board in
this work"
From the interest shown, it was evil
dent that the work of tick eradication
was considered the most important move
ment yet inaugurated to aid live stock
growers and develop the industry. 1t
was shown that as a result of the work
done since July last year, when it was
begun, that by January list from four
to six counties would be free and placed
above the national quarantine line. This
result in eighteen months and with
very small amount of funds encouraged
the members to ask for much larger
amount, believing that it could be used
to a corresponding advantage
Many counties are anxious for this
