Tho Use of the National Forests

TO KEEP THE WATER FLOW STEADY
1t should be clearly understood that
in regions of heavy rainfall--tor ex.
ample, on the Pacific slopes in Washing
ton, Oregon, northern California, and
Alaska-National Forests are not made
for the purpose of regulating the water
flow for irrigation. In these localities
there is plenty of water to spare. The
Forests here are created and maintained
to protect the timber aud keep it in
the peoples hands for their own present
and future use and to prevent the water
from running of suddenly in destructive
floods.
In other parts of the West, however,
in all the great arid regions of the
Rockies aud the eastern Pacific slopes,
one of the most vital reasons for making
and maintaining the National Forests
is to save every drop of water aud to
make it do the most effective work.
No one has yet proved that forests in-
crease the rainfall to any great extent.
What they do, and this no one of ex.
perience disputes, is to nurse aud con.
serve the rain aud snow after they have
fallen. Water runs down a barren, hard
surface with rush, all at once. 1t runs
down spongy, soft surface much more
slowly, little by little. A very large
part of the rain and snow of the arid
regions falls upon the great mountain
ranges. If they were bare of soil aud
vegetation, the waters would rush down
to the valleys below in floods. But the
forest cover the trees, brush, grass
weeds, and vegetable ltter-acts like a
big sponge. 1t soaks up the water
checks it from rushing down all at once
and brings about an even flow during
the whole season.
| In irrigation it is very important tc
have an sven flow throughout the grow
ing season, especially toward the end
That is where the trouble usually comes
AS rule the rancher has more waite
than he can use at the beginning of the
season and not enough at the end Tn,
food waters in the spring cannot be
, used. They run off and 60 to waste. Ii
order to save these food waters tn,
Government is now constructing man,
great reservoirs and canals throughout
the West, at enormous cost These RI
servoirs store up the food waters ant
hold them for use when most needed
That is precisely what the forests of thu
mountains do, although, of course, in
different way.
The forest cover is also very import
ant in preventing erosion and the wash
ing down of silt. If the slopes wer
bare and the soil unprotected, the water
would carry down with them grea
quantities of soil, gradually filling u
the reservoirs and canals and causin
immense damage to the great irrigation
systems. The Government engineer
who are building these reservoirs an
canals say that their work will be Ut
successful unless the drainage basins a
the headwaters OF the streams are pre-
tected by National Forests.
The home builder, more than any
body else, is vitality interested in stead
, flow of water for irrigation. Often hi
existence depends upon it.

vrucnt smallpox germs are introduced into your blood,
the chances are that this principle will still be present in
sufficient quantity to overcome them. Thus you be

Another way to immunizc a man Is To transfer to his
veins serum from the blood of animal that in

LABOR OFFICIALS
MUST ANSWER
IN COURT
TRIBUNAL RULES THAT CON-
9PERS AND ASSOCIATES MUST
MAKE APPEARANCES.

Washington. June 27.-President
Mitchell and Secretary Frank Morrison
of the American Federation Of Labor,
under rules issued today by Justice
Wright of the District of Columbia su-
preme court, were cited to appear Mon
day July II, and show cause why they
should not be punished for contempt
of court. The courts action followed
the filing of the report of committee
of lawyers appointed to investigate the
charge that all injunction granted by
the court in favor of the Buck Stove
and Range company of ST. Louis had
been violated. In case the labor leaders
are adjudged guilty 1t Is an open ques-
ton whether the court will impose a
judicial sentence.
The committees report submits that
there Is ground to charge each OF
these parties with wilful defiance OF
the orders of the court However, 1t Is
suggested that the labor leaders acted
under the belief that they We're within
the constitutional rights and the com
mittee virtually recommends that due
apologies and assurances of future sub
mission, IL they be forthcoming, settle
the matter.
| Mr.. Gompers Is dealt with as the
| chief offender, 22 of the " written
pages of the report being devoted tc
him. 1t Is probable the cases will MOI
be heard before fall in the event another
becomes necessary.
