FOREST CONSERVATION.

rev persons outside OF the SER
vice itself know of the great
work of development that has
been carried on in our national
forests since the government I'M
dertOok in real earnest the con-
servatiOn Of the same, short
time ago. While there is still
opposition and complaints aris-
ing, some no doubt well founded
and others not so, the policy has
become well established and is
settling down to a systematic,
business-like course of action,
which will work out eventually
the greatest good to the great
est number.
The stockmen who but short
time ago were the pronounced OPP
posers of the conservation system,
have come to be as a class it's
warmest friends and strongest
defenders, and Idaho county has
lots of that class. Beyond doubt
there have been hardships work
ed upon some individuals by too
stringent enforcement of arbitrary
rules or too great activity by
Over-zealous foresters, but these
drawbacks are being remedied and
it is believed will soon be elimi-
mated.
In his conservation message the
president emphasized the impor-
lance of the maintenance of our
forests, and urged their scientific
treatment $50 that they shall be
made to yield a large return in
timber without really reducing
the supply" and in other mes
sages he pointed out the necessity
of reforestation. The department
is giving attention to these items
by protecting the national forests
and by research work in it's splen
didly equipped laboratory at
Madison, Wis. Last year the fire
losses were only $2O0,OO01less
than any year in its history. There
are now about 10000 miles of
trail and 10000 miles of tele-
phone lines Protection is aided
by homesteads on the patches of
land within the forests which are
more valuable for farming than
for other purposes. Since the
act was passed, less than six year
ago, authorizing the secretary to
recommend that such land be leas-
ed, over a million acres have
been leased for settlement. AS
result of the knowledge of range
conditions furnished by studies of
past years, the forest ranges are
rising in productiveness, and will
add more beef and mutton to
the country's food supply, yield
more wool and hides, and put
more money into the pockets of
the stockmen than could posi-
bly, have come about had it not
been for the departments con-
troll of the grazing. In the past
five years the department has
been reforesting burned-over
areas at the rate of $4,000 to 3d.
90 acres a year. The department
takes justifiable pride in its for
est work, rightly thinking that
to have put under successful ad-
ministration 19O,OOO,OOO acres of
land, protected and managed for
the public benefit is a great |
achievement.

This is the separator that

After the grain is fed
into the cylinder, it must
pass under six revolving
heaters, and it is almost
impossible for any of the

 The gentleman Quetioned gazed a moment at the note, assumed an anx- iouS look, made hasty search of his pockets. and said: Why, so did, and l hadn't missed it," holding out an eager hand.
 The elderly hunter took the name and address of the loser and, putting the note in his pocket, turned away.
 Well" said the other, do you want it all as a reward?"
 "Oh. I did not find one" remarked the benevolent one with another beam: but 1t struck me that In @ big place like London there must be a quantity of money lost, and upon in- quiry found that you are the one hundred and thirty-first man who lost f1ve-pound note this morning. Lon don Answers.

MAST TREES FOR THE CROWN
Mark of the Broad Arrow Was Placed on Pines In Plymouth
 Colony.

In the provincial charter of 1891, under which the Plymouth colony and the province of Maine were united with Massachusetts, 1t was provided that all trees of the diameter of 24 inches and upward at 12 inches from the ground, growing upon land not heretofore granted to any private per son, should be reserved to the crown for the furnishing of masts for the royal navy. Harpers Weekly ob- serves
 surveyor general of woods was appointed to SC that this provision of the charter was carried into effect. Near the coast all white pines of suit able dimensions were marked with the broad arrow"-three cuts through the bark with an ax. like the track of crow. This was the kings mark
 Long after the revolution had oblit- erated the royal authority men who had been taught in boyhoed to respect the kings mark hesitated to cut such trees.
 In felling a tree 1t was necessary to bed 1t" to prevent it's breaking. This was done by cutting the small growth and placing small trees across the hollow. so that there should be no strain upon one section more than upon another when the monster pine struck ground.
 The mast was hauled out of the woods on one strong sled. whether in winter or summer, and so many oxen were required that the hind pair were often choked in crossing a hollow. be- ing hung up in their yoke by the pull ing of those ahead of them.
 mast hauling was a great event, and everybody within walking dis tance came to see 1t.

BLUEJAY LIVES IN WOODS
hawks, Owls and Other Birds Are Ieased and Tornented by
 These Noisy Birds.

The blueiay likes best to live in thick woods. but it often comes into open fields, orchards and near dwell ings in search of food When it dis covers you it assumes a proud and angry air of conceit and defiance
 The bluejay's upper parts are pur- plish-blue. The lower parts are pur- plish-gray The wings and tail are bright blue with black bars. The tail feathers are tipped with white It has crested head.
 The bluetay builds its nest about twenty feet above ground. It is made Of twigs and fine roots. From four to six eggs arr laid. They are of a greenish drab color fecked with brown.
 Doubtless the bluejay helped to name itself, as its common utterance IS a long drawn, jay. jay. jay This cry, with the bright blue color, has given 1t it's name.
 While the jay sings no song 1t is able to initiate the calls of other birds. by which means it often at tracts them. It likes to tease and torment the owl and especially the lit tie sparrow hawk. This Is done by Initiating the cry of a wounded bird, which draws the hawk near. Then several jays will dart at the hawk squealing and froicking about in great glee. Sometimes the play ends In a tragedy, for the hawk pounces upon one of them, to the dismay of the others. Jays may be caged and tanned like crows and some writers say they can be taught to utter words Bird Studies" by Herman c. De Groat
