TRAINS THROUGH TREE LANE
Charles r. Lambs Suggestions Offere,
to Leading American Railroads.

Charles r. Lambs Suggestions Offeres
to Leading American Railroads.
The new suggestions made by Charlie
r. Lamb of the Tree Planting associa
ton of New York city for plantin.
trees in the streets of New York anC
for planting trees on either side of :;
railroad track throughout an entire
right of way can be applied to town
as we'll as cities. Trees along railroad
tracks would be planted for a twofOlC
purpose-to provide the timber needed
for railroad ties and for the increased
artistic effect.
Mr.. Lambs suggestions are being of
fered to the Pennsylvania, the New
York Central, the Erie and other rail
roads in the United States. Mr.. Laml
has suggested the cutting down fol
use in ties of the alternating trees
thus keeping a continuous line o,
growing trees, the ones removed beine
replaced by smaller growths, which. il
turn, would be full grown trees wher
the second cutting was made.
Mr.. Lamb makes additional sugges
lions as to the cooperation Of the Ire;
Planting association with the local au
thorities of each city and town and
with the civic associations interested
in the Identification of their cities OF
towns so that the tree planting would
be developed from the railroad tracks
around the stations and on the main
streets or the roads leading to the sta
lions. The inevitable result, in Mr.
Lambs judgment, would be that the
principle of tree planting would be de
veloped in each community as its beau
ty, practicability and economy Of ad
ministration became appreciated under
these suggestions.
'The work of the society,"" said Mr.
Lamb. has been broadened during tn,
last season under Colonel Mitchell. th,
president, and John Y. Culyer. the ad
visory forester, and has become more

Let Kodol
Digest What You Eat. Then You Can Eat What
You Like

You once could eat anything you
wanted, and your stomach would
digest it.
But now there's some things which
your stomach won't digest. Your
stomach absolutely refuses to accom-
modate you when you eat certain
food-so you have been forced by your
stomach to eat food which you de-
tested, and pass up those delicacies
that you would have really enjoyed.
There is now a way to eat any
thing you like, if you will let
kodol digest it.
Kodol will do this, too. It won't
talk back or command. but will go
right all cad with it's work and digest
all the food you eat. Kodol will let
you eat anything you like.
Kodol will do exactly what your
stomach does, when your stomach is
well and strong, and more, when it
is tired or out Of order.
kodol is composed of exactly the
same juices as found in healthy

THURSDAY. P Sc. 1909

The statement almost invariably
made by people Who come from the
east to this country that the people
there do not know there IS such a
country as Nezperce prairie, should
lead the people on the prairie to take
some steps of advertising the prairie
more extensively and letting them
know just what there is here and
what the country will produce.
This advertising should be done in a
way that would reach the people
from whom We might we'll expect re-
turns in the way of capital to de-
velop certain industries here that are
just starting. or that have not yet
started. which would when properly
developed prove a great benefit and
help to the country in general. There
are many industries that could be
built up and developed here that
would make the land more valuable
and the country produce more wealth
tn an it does at the present time.
There are also many business op-
Portunities awaiting the vide awake
bu siness mar in different parts Of
the prairie as well as here, and if
these opportunities could be present
ed to the right parties they would
take hold of them as 500 as they
were presented.
Too often those who live here, in
writing Of the great resources or in
presenting the conditions personally
to those who have never seer this
country, make the mistake Of giving
the exceptionally good yields Of
or OF the extra good qualities
of the country, which are 50 far be-
yond what the stranger would expect
that he at once begins to doubt, and
The effort is lost to interest him be-
cause he is skeptical of what has
been told him. The advertising
would have much better effect and
bring better results if the exception
ally good yield we're not even men
Toned and only the common average
Yields of grain we're reported to
hem and the greater possibilities Of
he future omitted. If they are once
Induced to come and see for them
then they see that the facts
AVE not been presented showing the
'ountry to be as great as it really is
nd the more favorable impression
viii create on the prospective in
'estor, which will almost invariably
ring good results both to the in
estor and the people here.

The controversy between Cook
and Peary, over which one is en-
titled to the honors of discovering
the apex of the earth, is like the
quarrels that have happened time
and again with men who have made
brilliant achievements in their line
and when n particular GROWING
success "a almost in their grasp.
they lost It through the irony of fate.
Take for instance the Schley-Samp-
son controversy. Sampson had the
command and lead right along when
|Crrvera's feet was bottled up at
Santiago and was sure the honor of
capturing or destroying the heet
would be his. AT a critical time
though he started to cruise on the
outskirts Of the harbor and was ten
miles out when the Spanish feet
made their dash and Schley went
after them and almost had them
whipped before Sampson appeared
on the spot again. be thus losing by
a narrow margin what would have
been to him the one desire of his
life. Bat he still tried to claim this
honor knowing full vel he vas not
entitled to il. It is almost the same
way with generals during val times
when a victory was won. Grant and
Mcclellan had their arguments al
most along the same line as Sampson
and Schl-y. Prospectors looking for
gold in the hills have bitter quarrels
over a good discovery that one
thinks he IS entitled to just because
he has trOd the ground longer than
the lucky n who by chance struck
it. Even animals have this same
dominating spirit in their makeup
when after prey. It can't be helped
as it always has been thus and per.
haps always will be.

Since the North pole IS the prop
erty of the United States by the
right Of discovery, il has been sug-
gested that the best way to dispose
of it would be to turn it over to
Judge Witten and allow people to
draw for it by lottery in the same
way he so successfully disposed of
the Indian reserves. Or it might be
turned over to Secretary Ballinger
and let him dispose Of it as coal
lands. Another way still. Turn ii
over to Pinchot and let him make
an ice cream reserve out of il.
