vast trust probe. He arrested it was
possible TO "bust the trusts" without

Whether it will advocate the de-

THE NATIONAL FORESTS
ARE A LOSING GAME

Figures just compiled by the Dem
yer office of the forest service shows
that the receipts from the sale Of
national forest timber in the three
states of Colorado, Wyoming and
South Dakota were approximately
$4,000 more for the fiscal year 1918
than for the previous year. The To-
tai revenue from all sources for these
states, during the first three months
of the current fiscal year, is spproxi-
mately $4,000 in excess Of that for
the same period last year. Accord
ing to forestry officials, this increase
is due almost entirely to the incrsas-
ed activity in the manufacture Of
lumber within the national forest reg
ion.
The average expenditure for tho
protection and administration Of tie
national forests in Colorado, Wyom-
ing and South Dakota for the pre-
ent fiscal year will, it is said, amount
TO approximately two cents psr aers.
On the basis Of receipts for the first
quarter Of the current year, 1t il ~
timated that the total rscsipts from
the forests in these states this ysar
will be approximately one and ons-
half cents per acre, leaving . deficit
of but one-haf cent per acre in their
administration.
