was contentedly putting away, he said,
wistfully and hintingly, Il don't be-

Lauder slowly took the pipe from

extracted the match from his travel

ST. PAUL, sept. S.-"rne national
forests stand today as the great dem
onstration of practical conservation,
and as the monument to the real
founder of this great national move
ment.-Gifford Pinchot"
With this tribute. Henry S. Graves,
appointed by President Taft to sue
coed Pinchot as chief forester, clos
ed his address before the National
Conservation Congress here today
Conservation is threatened by lack
of money and by opposition from
those who fear that their immediate
interests may be adversely affected,
he said.
THE Western forest fires this year
prove conclusively that with proper
equipment and men, forests can be
protected from fire under the most
adverse climatic conditions" Graves
asserted.
ITO my mind" he continued, the
significance and value of the present
congress is that the methods OF con-
servation may be discussed, and the
country will then decide whether con-
servation will really be put into prac-
tice or become a meer name.
Graves gave warning OF the van
ishing timber supply. The annual
growth, he said. is only one-third
the quantity used and destroyed. Yet
there is in the country enough land
better suited TO forest growth thar
anything else, to produce If rightly
handled, all the timber needed by tn,
nation.
Without mentioning names Grave,
combatted the statement of Chief vii
lis l.. Moore, of the Weather Service
who asserts forests have no effect OF
the flow of water courses. The chic
forester insisted that the injuries ef
fects of forest destruction upol
stream flow are not sufficiently real

Des Moines, Nov. s.-Prosperity was
the downfall Of Iowa in population. ac-
cordinE to Mack Olsen, president of the
Des Moines Real Estate Exchange.
Iowans with per capita wealth OF
$1,s2s. Mr.. Olsen says, are not content
ed to remain in Iowa when the lure of
cheap lands and speculation is calling
them to western states and territories.
my only solution of the fact that
Iowa lost almost $500 in population is
that the people of this state are too
prosperous" he said. They are not
contented to stay here where they made
their fortunes. If the Iowa farmer was
poor and was living from hand to
mouth he would be contented on his
farm Under those conditions Iowa
would have shown An increase in popu-

the farms in Iowa. The large farms
have not increased the population but
decrea sed it as it is possible. with mod

when the Iowa farmer. with 100
acres, makes enough to invest In cheap
western lands, he sells his farm to the
nesilbor across the road and moves
from the state. The neighbor culti-
Yates both farms with the same help.
So Iowa has lost an entire family.
For instance the father who has
becomes independent, wishes to retire
and he gives his farm to the boy. He
moves to the city. The boy then makes
sufficient money TO invest in western

of the busin ess-the same as the early
settlers of Iowa. Then he sells TO his
neighbor and goes west. Therefore
Iowa loses another family.
That is the story of the exodus from
Iowa. Iowa soil Is too fertile and too
productive to keep the people here.
1owans become independent within a
few years and then they want to leave
