IRRIGATION As RELATED
TO THE LUMBER INDUSTRY

Chicago, H., Dec 11.-Irrigation as
related to the lumber industry Of the
west was discussed by George II. Corn
wall of Portland, ore, editor of a lum-
Der trade journel, before the Irrigation
congress. He said in part:
THE lumberman Of the west has oc-
cupied a peculiar position in that he
has had to create his own market. In
the older sections Of the east and mid
die west long since practically de-
nuded. the congestion of population af-
forded a ready market for every species
Of available timber. But in the vast
west tardy settlement meant an made
quate lumber market And this is the
point Of contact between irrigation and
the lumber industry.
ITO settle up and develop this great
country to a point where il viii alb
sorb the ever increasing surplus OF
lumber in its legitimate territory. is a
work in which irrigation must serve as
a basic factor"

Back of this tremendously signifi-
cant movement stands the National
Reform association, with headquarters
in Pittsburg, Pa, which will be- best
recalled as the organization which un-
dertook the rehabilitation Of the
church in America Immediately after
the civil war, when millions had to be
won back to the altar and, later as
the potential force behind the anti
polygamy movement For nearly so
years the National Reform association
has been systematically organizing
militant Christian forces everywhere
to urge the moral accountability Of
nations upon the rulers of the world.
Out of this long continued effort for
humanity came the first worlds Chris
tian citizenship conference at Phila-
delphia, 1910, which gathering brought
together representatives of 10 nations.
This conference made such a great and
lasting impression upon the moral and
religious organizations of the world
that steps were taken at once looking
to the second worlds Christian citi-
zenship conference. which viii be held
at Portland.
Each of the Al states of the United
