TOLD IN THE HILLS

A low rail fence surrounded the cabin
on three sides. The fourth side was
protected by high cliff which jutted
out from tall mountain. Nothing but
the wind and rain could get in on this
side. A stranger stopped in front of
the door. One of the rails with the
bark side up had been worn slick from
crossing. This is how the stranger
knew when he reached the gate. He
had tramped some distance, and had
not found spring, and was wanting
water. On the puncheon ioored porch
in front of the house sat an old noun
taineer. Beside him was shotgun Of
the old style, with tremendous bore.
Longhandled gourds swung from their
native vine, which clung about the
end of the porch on sticks and pins,
which had been arranged for its sup
port. On carefully threaded vine on
one of the rude posts climbed pome-
granate vine, its sweet smelling fruit
mingling oder with the smell of gun
powder. The old man had been shoot
ing.
"Can / have a drink?p asked the
stranger from the fence, the sight of
the gun and the fact that he might be
mistaken for a'.revenuer" causing him
to wish that he was thousand miles

SUPREME COURT
DELIVERS OPINIONS.

The state supreme court held tha
the act of 1911, exempting Campbell
county from the registration of its
voters, to be unconstitutional and in
effective. A bill was introduced and
passed in the last legislature by Rep
resentative Henry Brown, abolishing
the registration law as to Campbell
county.
The court held, in an opinion hand
ed down by Chief Justice John X.
Shields, that by marrying the girl
after being indicted on the charge OF
violating the age of consent, did not
relieve a man from punishment if con-
victed of the crime.
Justice Green, in an opinion, held
that the failure of special judge

IMPROVEMENT CLUB
ORGANIZED BY RAILROAD

Atlanta, Sept.-The Farm Improve
ment department, which the Southern
railway system has decided to es
tablish, was organized yesterday at III
Piedmont hotel at meeting of tn,
thirty men who will make up this de
partment, The purpose of this depart
ment as stated by President Finley il
to help the farmers Of the southeast t
increase their yields per acre and its
field agents will work personally with
farmers urging the adoption of ap
proved methods of culture and giving
them the benefit of expert advice.
This department grew out of the
work undertaken by the Southern and
allied lines two years ago in the terri
tory threatened by the boil weevil in
Alabama and Mississippi. 1t was found
that in aiding the farmers to fight the
weevil, greatly increased yields per
acre were secured and successful was
the result considered, that President
Finley decided to extend the work TO
the entire territory covered by the
Southern railway, the Georgia and
Florida railway, the Mobile and Ohio
railroad, the Alabama Great Southern
railroad, the Cincinnati, New Orleans
and Texas Pacific railway and the
smaller lines which make up the
Southern SYSTEM The field agents of
this department will work personally
with farmers to whom their services
are without cost of any kind. In carry
ing on its work, the Southern's de-
partment will cooperate closely with
the United States department of agri-
culture, the various state agricultural
departments and agricultural colleges.
The work of the department is under
the direction of Mr.. T. o. Plunkett,
manager, who will have headquarters
in Atlanta, and report TO President
Finley through Mr.. J. e. Williams,
assistant to president at Washington.
Mr.. Plunkett will be aided by three
assistant managers, MI w. ID. Clay
ton, with headquarters at Chattanooga,
Mr.. r. +. Grabel, with headquarters
at Charlotte, and Mr.. Roland Turner,
with headquarters at Meridian, Miss.
Field agents will be located at the fol-
lowing points: Manassas, Va, Dan

cent. Of our total supply TO one com
pany leaves plenty of room for com
petition by other companies.
NTEe timber which has been sold L
the California company lies well bach
in the Sierra Nevada mountains ant
will require the construction of seven
ty miles of standard gauge railroad tc
open up The area. Since this road will
also open up other national timber
and will be common carrier, ii creates
another safeguard against monopoly.
The company is given cutting period
of twenty-five years to remove the
timber, besides An additional two years
for the construction OF logging and
manufacturing facilities. The sale was
publicly advertised for six months in
order to give an opportunity for all
who wished TO compete for the con-
tract to make bids, as is done in all
large national forest sales.
"No business organization would
undertake the heavy Investment neces-
sary in such cases, unless the handling
of a large body Of timber and a sutfi-
cient period in which to remove it UNI
der practicable logging conditions are
assured. The greatest difficulty in
making such long-term sales is to es-
talish price that will be fair to both
sides. No one can foresee future con-
ditions well nnough to know what
stumpage will be worth ten, fifteen or
twenty years hence.
consequently the terms of sale pro-
vide for the readjustment of stumpage
prices every five years. The basis for
fixing the prices will be, in each case
the prices of manufactured lunbeI in
the markets where the timber is sold
during the preceding two years.
"For several years the forest service
has been selling in the neighborhood
of million dollars worth of national
forest stumpage per year, but this
combined with what is cut for free use
Is only about one-eight of what might
be cut without reducing the perman-
ent stock of the foFes IS. The supply
will be kept up through growth. BY
long-term sales it will be
possible greatly to increase the amount
available for present needs of the tim
ber consuming public, without endan-
gering future supplies through over
cutting. 1t will always remain true,
however, that vastly the greater part
of our timber sales will be to small
purchasers, who are favored wherever
possible. Monopoly is impossible as
long as the door is kept open for such |
purchasers. Out of over $500 sales
made in the fiscal year 1911, about
'orty were for over $1,000 worth of
tir1ber to single purchaser.

WITH COMPANY IN
SAN FRANCISCO
900 MILLION FEET sDLD
To the Hiehes' Bidder After Be-
ing Advertised for Six Months
Prior to Being Awarded.

Chief Forester Graves is on his way
TO San Francisco to make final ar
rangements under which a California
lumber company will purchase 500
million feet Of lumber on the Sierra
national forest. The timber has al
ready been awarded, after public ad-
vertisement, to the highest bidder, but
under the terms of the advertisement
the final signing of the contract will
not take place until the company has
been shown on the ground what tim
ber the government will reserve from
cutting in order to preserve good forest
conditions and provide for reproduce
ton.
The company will be allowed its full
500 million feet, but naturally it will
not be allowed to cut clean. AS rule
the forest service reserves reserves
something like one.third of the forest
stand in applying forestry on govern
ment holdings. A marking board
made up of one man sent from Wash
ington, one from the district office in
San Francisco, and the local forest SUI
pervisor will carefully mark sample
area, to show how the restrictions on
cutting will be applied. Representa-
tives of the company will then go over
this area, nfter which Chief Forester
Graves and his assistants will, it is ex-
pected, make final arrangements with
the company in San Francisco, and
the contract of sale will be signed.
"The forest service, said Mr.. Graves
in speaking of this sale, "has received
number Of inquiries whether in selling
so much timber to single purchaser
the government may not be opening
the wav to monopolistic control of
local lumber markets. Other cores
pondents are disturbed lest the sale
prove bad bargain for the govern
ment through the rise in value of the
timber in the twenty-five years during
which the company will cut.
"Such large and long. time sales of
national forest timber as that TO the
California company are new develop
in the forest service. Great bodies of
mature but inaccessible timber can be
put on the market only If sale con-
tracts are let on terms which will JUS
tify very heavy initial investment in
transportation facilities. In entering
into such contracts, however, special
safeguards TO protect he public against
monopoly and to prevent an undue
speculative profit TO the purchaser
are employed.
"Tha national forests contain, in all,
the equivalent of nearly 600 billion
feet of timber now of merchantable
size, besides young growth for future
harvest. Because of its remoteness
from market and the wild mountain
GUS country, without transportation
facilities, in which most of 1t lies, only |
small percentage can now be sold on
any terms. Most of it would cost more |
to get it out than it would bring. The
sale of less than one-tifth of one per
