Notice to Woodian nd owners.

The State Forester, F. w. Besley, is
visiting each county IN the State this
fall for the purpose of making woodlot
and timberland examinations and giving
advice in handling such lands when re-
quested to do so. Advice is likewise
given in the matter of'forest tree plant
ing. This occasion will afford the land
owner the opportunity of having his
woodlands examined by an expert,
without charge, and plan of manage
proposed to fit as nearly as possible the
needs of the Individual case. The ex-
animation is made for the benefit of the
land owner, the State receiving an in
direct benefit in stimulating practical
forestry by means of such object lessons
to show what applied forestry really
means, and what it will accomplish. 1t
is the aim of forestry to take woodland
conditions as they are on the farms.
differing widely as they do, and by sug-
gesting such methods as experience has
proven adaptable to aid in securing
their highest productiveness. There
fore no matter in what condition the
woodland may be, whether mature and
| ready to cut, whether cut-over, crippled
or burned or full of promising young
growth, much can be done to secure a
valuable second growth or to improve its
present condition, such things as cost
little or nothing but which will greatly
| increase the final yield.
The State Board of Forestry is CO.
operating in this work through the State
Forester and desires that its usefulness
may be extended as far as his time will
permit. Make application to F. W.

OFFERING OUACK MEDICINE.

DR.. Woodrow Wilson, the New Jersey
schoolmaster who aspires to the presid
encY of the United States, is now posing
as national medicine man with cure.
all equal to electric bitters, testimonials
to which made Champ Clark ridiculous
IN the eyes of the people
That Democratic patent compound
known as free trade, which has been on
the political market full half century
or more, grown stale or even rotten
from age, is the progressive remedy
the mooted New jersey progressive
candidate has to offer. Perhaps, its
state of decomposition, scented so deeply
by the schoolmaster, is the kind of
progressiveness the noted progressive
candidate possesses. The medicine is
becoming so naeuseating to the people as
the doctor peddles it from Sea Grit and
wherever else he appears as the heralder
Of law correcting herbs that it quickens
a sense of repulsion that had lain latent
number of years through feeling of
security over the fact that the health
and prosperity of the country and the
national life were in the hands of the
Republican party and therefore not
threatened.
In an editorial treating on Doctor
Wilson as a free trade practitioner
whose averment is that free trade is a
cure-all for what national evils there
are, the New York Press points out the
universal rejection of Wilson s medicine
in likemanner, to that of William J.
Bryan's free silver as the cure for ma
tional evils, when he undertook to foist
that erroneous and ruinous theory on the
nation and therby destroy the national
credit. The Press concludes its editorial
as follows:
Woodrow Wilson seems to be bent on
making the.destructlon of the protective
tariff system the leading feature of his
program. 4 This is a truth that is sinking
into the minds of the people as the
Democratic nominee goes from place to
place making hlsj.appeals from class to
class, .and promising all ranks and kinds
of citizens that they will prosper if they
will vote to3 destroy the system under
which the United States has thrived
AS the voters begin to realize what
ruin the Wilson free trade program
means, and how completely the Wilson
program failsIto afford promise of deal
ing with.the real evils that beset the
country, we think theyiwill distrust the
man as much as they distrusted another
Democratic candidate for president who
promised them wealth and happiness if
they would throw over the gold standard
for the free coinage of silver at 16 to l.
Mr.. Bryan did not suffer from a worse
delusion when he offered free silver as
cure-all for the country's troubles than
Mr.. Wilson labors under when he pre-
scribes a big dose of free trade to set
everything right that he thinks is the
matter with the American people.

Tradsr-aood Times In Sight.

The Evening Post Of New York,
tude toward the presidential contest,
has been taking the views Of repre-
sentative business men in various
parts of the United States on the i'm
provement in business conditions and
the probable influence of that i'm
provement ON the national election.
Among conditions pointing to in
creasing prosperity and better times
for all branches of trade and indus
try are wheat crop estimated by
the department of agriculture In Its
report for August at 58,000.000 bushels
more than the crop Of 1911 and ex-
ceeding In magnitude only in three
preceding years; a corn crop, II not in
Jured by early frosts, estimated to be
the third largest of our yields and 10
per cent. larger than In 1911, and
cotton crop recently estimated as high
as IA, 600, 900 bales, which would be ex
ceeded only by the extraordinary 49,
100000 bale crop of last year. The
country's iron production Of July (usu-
ally a barometer" of trade) surpass-
ed all records for the month. Orders
on the books Of the United States Steel
corporation at the beginning of Aug
ust were the largest reported in any
month since the panic of 1907, and
showed the most rapid ratio of in
crease, as compared with a year ago,
that had ever been recorded The to-
tai weekly value Of checks drawn on
all the oountry's banks and passed
through the clearing houses has in
creased over IA per cent. over 1911,
and in large sections of the west 20
per cent. recovery was reported. Along
with this, the reports of the railway
association on the number Of railway
freight cars idle in the United States
have lately shown the smallest total
for this time of year since 1907.
