Three-fourths of the forest area Of

Der land are privately owned, there
fore under state and not national con-
troll. Furthermore, scientific forestry
is now practiced on but / per cent Of
the privately owned forest as against
20 per cent Of the forest publicly own

millions and millions of dollars worth
Of timber are annually burned for lack
Of protection and where watersheds
and windbreaks are robbed by reckless
timber cutting, with little If any atten-
ton to replanting. Forestry as pub
lie duty is now being recognized by
state legislators, but in some states ex-
listing laws stand in the way of sue
cess. It would seem, then, that the
true firing, line of the forest conserva-
ton fight is in the capitals Of the sew

Now is the time for experts living
on Is cents day to speak up.
Raising Your Own Eggs.

Raising Your Own Eggs.
The Brooklyn Eagle takes eggs from
cold storage at go cents DOZEN for
the text of sermon on raising eggs
for family use. It declares that eggs
are one of the easiest crops to raise,
that land good for nothing else is all
right for chicken runs, and so on. This
advice is at once encouraging and tan
TALKING. Doubtless hundreds Of city
families will take that sermon to heart
and move out upon bit of land where
chickens can be raised.
But the records of amateur egg rails
ers tell another story. Some expense
and much labor are involved in setting
up and caring for even couple of
dozen hens. When the amateurs hens
are laying eggs are cheap in the mar
ket, and when eggs are at the top
notch the amateurs hens are Oh q
strike. A few hens work in we'll with
q garden plot, pig and COW perhaps
If there is some one always on the
job of looking after them. Hard work
ing, thrifty people manage these things
to a profit, but the outskirts of every
town and city in the land are dotted
with abandoned chicken farms, which
cost the owners first and last double
the value of their product. For one
thing, the 2 by chicken house is not
q place for hens to thrive in.

If Northern Minnesota sticks to-
gether on reapportionment. and sends
men to the legislature who will not
trade off the rights of their con-
stituents for petty pottage. a
There should be no sectionalism in the
great common wealth of Minnesota,
and for the southern half to continue
q system of reapportionment so unfair
and 80 unjust as the present, is to
practice sectionalism and to invite
Ieprisals when the time comes, as it
ultimately will, when the great
centers OF population and the northern
halt of the state will govern the
destinies of the state.

Many Of the speakers at the county
option convention we're eloquent on
the subject of taxation without re.
presentation, claiming that the
Inabil1ty Of the voters outside of the
limits OF village to vote on whether
liquor should be sold therein, was such
taxation. How about the unfair
legislative apportionment which gives
taxpayers IN the southern part of the
state two, three and four times as
much representation as taxpayer in
tho northern part?

If the saplent gentlemen who were
so quick and ready to shut off debate
in the house last winter on the county
option proposition, not giving its
advocates a hearing had been as WISE
AZ they thought they were, they would
have let those folks bluff off their
steam. a. If they had, there would
have been less steam at the conven-
tion the other day. Besides, 1t doesn' (
pay, not to give the other fellow a
square deal. The blood Of martyrs is
the seed Of growth in more things
than the church.

The county option convention at
st. Paul last week was certainly a
remarkable gathering. It was q
demonstration of organized enthusiasm
over an issue which those who
sincerely believe IN feel IS a moral
issue. Moral issues may sometimes
breed fanatlcism, but there is strength
in fanaticism, in cause which grips
the souls of those who believe in it.
No one who witnessed the convention
and the outbursts of applause which
came from the representatives of every
part of the state, can doubt the
vitality of the county option move
ment. It will not do to laugh at it,
or tor petty politicians to try to
juggle with the proposition. It must
be met fairly and squarely. Those
who have not commercial interest
in the question, but who believe that
it is mistake to change the unit Of
expression of the popular will from
the village and township to the county
who believe that to vote on county
option and give those who favor it
another vote locally when the county
has gone against the proposition, not
permitting the same privilege to
those who believe the other way, is
unfair and un-American-those who
believe that the liquor problem IS but
one phase of the great social problem
and that enforcement of wise laws and
regulations and systematic education
will avert and destroy many Of the
evils of the traf6c-an who believe this
way must meet the proposition
decently and fairly with such argu-
ments and reasons as they possess.
Any other methods, any alliance with
great corporations or trusts, Will not
do. Let the fight De on the square.
It's the only way to win a victory
worth winning.

Miss Northrop Writes of Seminole
Camp-Mrs. Hugh Hunters Funeral
MIR. and Mrs. Daniel Vereason to
Move to AshwiIett.

Miss Ruth Northrop, who is spend
ing the winter in Florida, writes un-
der date of Feb. % of visiting the Sem
mole Indian camp. She says: We took
the little launch and went up to the
camp and had an interesting visit. 1t
is on the bank of river. Their homes
are simply roofs matched with palm
leaves supported by poles, and entirely
open on the sides. They have a kind
of table built on which they sleep-five
sleeping on one of these tables.
We saw a beautiful snow white crane
which was tame. These cranes are
about four feet high, snow white, with
green legs When they are still they
twist their necl1s in such a way as to
look as though they hadn't any. and
it is surprising to see one stretch out
the long neck when it gets up to walk
These Seminole Indians speak little
English.
On our way home we stopped at
large farm and picked some strawber-
ries. These continue to ripen from now
until June. The orange trees were in
bloom, and except for the heat and
lack of rain to cool the air, the trip
was a pleasant one.
