Sirolin IS very agreeable
to the palate. 1t is a pre-
paration possessing all the
virtues Of guaiacol and
creosote, without the dis
agreeable taste of these most
valuable drugs. Sirolin is
compounded with a palat-
able, non-irritating deriva-
tive of guaiacol, the active
principle of creosote. Sir
olin is not only palatable,
but it also improves the ap-
petite, assists digestion and
aids nutrition.
Sirolin is a physicians
remedy-not a patent nos
trum. 1t comes to America
with the highest European
reputation.

The bark Alden Bessie, owned by

Company, will carry the shipments Of
the various concerns in the organiza-
ton. Ever since II was put on the run

STATE CONTROL
OF FORESTRY
BY J. A. Breekons.

(Special Correspondence II The Starr
WASHINGTON, Mar. 1.-THE di.
rect question Of state versus federal
control will be raised at the opening
of the coming session by the intro
ductlon Of a bill by Representative
Lafferty Of Oregon empowering states
to create state forestry boards and pro
TO create state forestry boards and pro-
viding for the transfer Of authority
over all forest reserves within the
commonwealth. The effect OF the
Lafferty bill would b, to practically
abolish the national forestry bureau at
Washington and vest the administra-
ton OF these reserves in the several
states within which these areas are
located. Examinations or additions to
forest areas, under the measure, must
be recommended TO congress by tho
state board, and the approval Of the
national body secured before such
changes could be made. All OF the
revenues are to 80 into the state
treasury, and the balance remaining
after administration expenses are paid
10 be divided equally between the
state school and road funds.
According to the author of the pro-
posed bill, far too much Of the forestry
appropriation Is now expended in the
maintenance of the Washington bu-
reau, and too little Of It reaches the
PURPOSES for which Il Is appropriated.
Granting the work under his plan
would require the same number Of
employees, these would be kept at
work IN the several states and their
salaries thus expended among the peo-
pie Of their own locality instead Of at
the national capital. The centraliza
ton Of authority within each state
would greatly benefit the settlers, who
are now frequently compelled to sub
