RIDDLE IN RHYME.

Dear Daddy Jim:-I thought
would write you a few lines. I hope
my letter will not fall into the waste
basket. l live in the country, seven
miles from our little town. Papa
takes The JeffersOnian, and I like it
fine. I enjoy reading the letters in
it. I want to join the POSTCARD
Club. I will answer three riddles:
The first, from the dead the living
come; that was a wasps' nest in a
dead cows head. The next one is a
ditch, and the last one is a churn.
Now will ask you one:
I have only one foot, but thousands
of toes;
My one foot stands, but never goes.
I have many arms and they are
mighty, all;
And hundreds of fingers, large and
small.
No one ever saw me eat, have no
mouth to bite,
Yet | feed all day in the full sun
light
In the summer with song, I shake
and culver.
But in winter I fast and groan and

Unriddle this and I will send you

and the breaking up of the soil to re-
celve the crop, erosion begins at
once. In a very few years the land
thus cleared is ruined, it's fertility
gone, and it's crOp-producing value so
reduced as to make farming upon it
Improbable. To meet this condi-
ton, another tract is cleared and the
old one abandoned. In this manner
a continual drain upon the forests
has been going on all throughout the

The delay in taking hold of this
question will be a costly one for the
people, for every year the land is in
creasing in value Either the State
or the nation must eventually buy this
land for the purpose Of protecting
the regions concerned, and the soon
er it is done the less it will cost. Re-
garded merely as a plain business

The Stripping of the Hills

During the conference of Gov

ture of the Appalachian forest was
the keynote to nearly all the utter
ances of the Southern Governors.
eve have tried" said Governor
Glenn, of North Carolina, 'to pro-
tect our great resources as best we
could. But the States by themselves
are helpless. The arm of the nation
must be used to aid the people.
Five times, representing my State,
have I been here in it's name, knock
ing at the doors of Congress, and
asking help. Will they
wait until all our forests are cut
down and denuded; until all the
lands along our rivers are destroyed;
until the rivers themselves are filled
up with mud and gravel? -
At dinner given by the Governors
during the conference, Governor
Glenn awoke storm of applause
when he remarked: Speaker Can

States ought to form confederation,
and the Southern States form a con-
federation and not trouble the Union
that confederation and not money
from the National Treasury ought to
be the means used to stop this waste

ern Appalachian region is suitable
for agriculture. There are a few
valleys between the higher ranges
which are fertile; but this grade of
land is limited to an area small in
comparison with the whole. The
soil covering on the sleeper noun
tainsides is very thin, and of such a
character that it is easily eroded and
carried away by floods whenever the
forest cover is disturbed. The clear
ing methods employed are wasteful
in the extreme. The timber is sell

trees and underbrush are cut off, and
the larger trees are simply girdled
and left to die where they stand.
The land thus cleared is short
