from the multiplication of prairie dogs
and gophers, whether it is practicable
to introduce new forage plants by direct
seeding, and many other matters. 1t is
to look into such matters that the graz
ing examiners are to be appointed.
Besides seeking to bring about the
recuperation Of depleted ranges, the re-
duction of waste, and the development
of all range to what may be termed an
artificial state of productiveness through
control of reproduction, accompanied, it
is hoped, by the introduction of new
forage plants, the studies planned will
aim also at increasing the area of range
available.
There is much natural grazing land in
the National Forests which cannot be
put to use, either because the country is
too rough for stock to be driven in, be-
cause shipping facilities are lacking, or
because of lack of water. The construc-
tion of properly located roads and drive
ways and the development of water
through the building of reservoirs or
the driving Of artesian wells, are a part
of the general scheme of permanent
improvements planned for the National
Forests.
To furnish the basis for comprehen-
sive development of the grazing resource
the range will be studied in detail, clas.
si6ed according to the vegetation found,
and mapped by "forties". The observa-
tions made will include notes for each
forty acres upon the surface, soil, char
acter and density of vegetation, evidence
of over-grazing or under-use, presence
of poisonous plants, damage by range
destroying animals, water facilities, and
accessibility. With such data in hand
it will be possible to bring about much
more intelligent and intensive use Of
the National Forest range.

One of the results of the last stalwart
campaign is shown in the published
price list of the 1911 crop Of binder
twine at the State Penitenitiary. The
course of the Board in charging one cent
a pound extra for twine sold direct to
farmers was severely criticised during
the campaign of the stalwarts. The new
price puts on an extra charge of only
one-quarter of cent per pound in less
than carload lots, to cover carriage, which
means that farmer can now buy at the
plant, in small quantities, at the carlot
price. A year ago the Board said it
could not be done; but it is now to be
done just the same.--Argus-Leader.

EASTER HATS THIS YEAR.
Tilted Brims, Satiny Straws and Dainty
Flowers will be Popular Styles.

Not so many entire Easter hats of
flowers will be seen this year as straw
models with brims or crowns buried in
blossoms or foliage. The toques with
high turned-up brims are we'll adapted
to this sort of trimming A soft satin
straw has its vertical brim entirely hid
den under mass of velvety pansies in
delicate lavender and mauve tints.
A palmer model has brim of dark
green leaves through which peep here
and there small clusters of the tinisst
white blossoms. White lilacs cover the
whole crown of another small shape and
its sameness is relieved on one side by
a couple of deep red roses.
On many of the new lingerie models
designed for Southern wear touch of
color is given by sash that runs in and
out through the fabric away down close
to the knees. The style seems to be q
compromise between the Moyeu Age
effect of q couple of seasons ago and the
hobble of this winter.
Hats that allow of a generous display
of the under brim are faced or partially
faced, or else have folds or other fiat
motive. Soutache braid is we'll liked for
this purpose, and is used in variety Of
ways for trimming the Spring hats, not
only for. adults, but children as well.
The braid ia usually sewn on q silk
foundation, and in straight rows, or it
may be applied to the straw direct.
There is an effort being put forth to
popularize ribbon. While other trim
mings are applied Hat to the hat, rib
bons are often arranged to add materially
to its height. A soft two-toned ribbon
having a finely ribbed surface is very
good for this purpose. 1t is, of course,
necessary to wire the outstanding loops.

Farmers are warned that the 17-year
locusts are due to make their appearance
this summer, and agricultural experts
are now engaged in plans for reducing
the ravages of the pest to minimum.
The locusts are expected to make their
appearance along the Atlantic coast from
Virginia to New York, but are not likely
to reach New England. They may also
extend their depredations westward to
