by the fact that approximately s.0o0.-

men are kept constantly at work con-

at the well is 81 Mexican money OF So

southern states. the leading men are
beginning to show an interest, and are
talking about state bureaus OF forestry
and appointing forest commissioners. The
spirit of conservation is growing every
where. and the movement begun and pro-
moted by Clifford Pinchot has become
universally popular in all of the states
where the government still controls nat
ural resources and where hitherto they
have been considered the prey OF any one
who could get hold Of them. State con-
servation. corporate conservation and in
dividual conservation have developed
with astonishing rapidity under the in
fluence of the national government, and
methods of economy and preservation are
being adopted in place Of the wasteful-
ness that had become a national crime.

Safeguarding Against Fire.

'The state governments are also wax
ing up to the realization that they must
actually aid in fire protection and in re-
ducing taxation. Washington, Minnesota,
Maine. New Hampshire and other states
have passed laws and appropriated money
for fire patrol on the doctrine that 1t is
better to prevent than to extinguish q
fire. The United States government has
entered upon new policy of co-operat-
ing with the states. and the Weeks law
for the purchase of the Appalachian for
ests and those Of the White mountains
provides the sum of $20O.OOO to prevent
fires on water sheds OF navigable streams.
We are working out that plan now. 1t
Is q new departure for the government to
assist In the protection of forests wholly
in the different states. but the purpose
is to encourage the states to furnish their
own protection. and the law provides that
the state authorities must do something
before the general government undertakes
to help them. Many of them are doing
so. and that Is q big advance.
There Is some progress in the south.
