Toll of the Tall Timber

The Agricultural College Of the State
Of Washington, through its farm dem
onstration department, has been con-
Quoting tests on the logged-of lands
which have attracted great attention.
The system used is called the char-pit
method OF burning stumps. At The
meeting Of the Southwestern Develop
ment League at Vancouver recently,
Prof. H. W. Sparks, supervisor Of the
demonstration farm Of the Washington
agricultural college, conducted some
very successful tests.
Where stumps are II or IS inches
through it has been found more eco
nomical to pull them out with horse
and capstan, or with a donkey engine.
Where stumps, however, are too large
for removal in this manner, the char-pit
method has demonstrated its ability to
clear the land OF stumps at small ex-
pense. The method IS very simple.
The bark is removed from the stumps
for a height Of about two feet above the
ground. Dry kindling wood, bark and
litter are placed entirely around the
stump. Earth is shoveled to depth
of from three 10 six inches over the
wood and bark surrounding the trunk.
An opening about foot vide is left
and the fire is started by means Of pitch
pine. When it is well started the open
ing IS covered, leaving small crevlce
for draft. It takes from six days TO two
weeks for a stump TO bum out com
Dletely By this method. The fire fol-
lows the roo,s to the very end, and If
care is taken TO keep the fre always
covered With earth there IS little chance
for failure.-Fred Lockley in April Pa
cifc Monthly.

$4,000 for Advertising Lumber

Fifty thousand dollars will be spent
by the Pacific Coast Lumber Manufac-
turers Association to expand the mar
kets for fur lumber in the East. This
campaign is to be undertaken at once,
so that the millmen will be ready for
the opening of the Panama canal in
1918. The sum named will go for adj
vertising and exploitation this year.
Thereafter additional money will be
raised as needed. The lumbermen ex-
pect to get benefits from the CANAL
hence they will lose no time in making
preparations.

Gently interviewed by the writer on
the subject of life insurance. He
stated that he had all his policies
paid up, and that there was nothing
that Afforded him the same feeling
of security that his insurance pro
vided. The fact that he has an es-
tate which cannot shrink in value,
which cannot be seized for debt and
on which he has to pay no taxes, is
an all powerful factor in determining
his attitude in regards to life insur-
ance.
Mr.. Reid is man Of mature years
and his wide experience should and
does qualify him to know whereof
he speaks.
Mr.. J. w. Spearin of this city,
stated to the writer, that he has one
policy that is paid up and another
that will be shortly. Mr.. Spearin is
a gentleman still in the prime of life,
yet has passed enough mile stones
to make his opinion valuable. He
Stated that he was sorry that he did
not take out more insurance while
he was still young man.
Young man, get busy and apply
for your insurance NOW; pro-
cras innate and some day you will
pay double the premium required at
your present age. Life insurance is
a privilege. Only about one in four
is eligible. If you doubt its value
ask any man who has applied and
has been rejected. You will find
that he sets great value upon it and
would deny himself more than one
luxury could he obtain the insur-
ance. Put it off, and there is dan
ger that your health will become i'm
paired and you will become an un-
desirable risk.

clothing and shelter, suppose you

BETTER DRAIN THAN BUY
MORE LAND.
Desire to Acquire Additional Acres Is
False Idea.

Desire to Acquire Additional Acres Is
False Idea.
It is not an uncommon thing for a
landowner to fight a drainage assess
ment, on land which has a market
value of from $40 to $50 an acre, and
at almost the same time buy another
tract of similar land, at the market
price. His desire is to acquire more
acres, under the false idea that his
prosperity will be denoted by the
amount of land in his possession. He
does not realize that one acre of thor
oughly drained land may bring him a
greater income, with half the labor
and expense of cultivation, than two
acres of the undrained land: or that
it could be acquired at one-third to
one-half the cost of the newly-bought
acre. This extra land is purchased
with the idea that land values will
rise. AS the real value of the land is
regulated by it's Improvements and
productiveness, the landowner whose
only object is to acquire more acres,
rather than to improve the land al
ready in his possession, is an "unde-
sirable citizen:" for he expects to be
the gamer through his neighbors i'm.
