FOREST PROTECTION
TO REGULATE STREAM
FLOW AND WASHING
RECOMMENDATION BY THE CON-
SERvATION CONGRESS
LAST WEEK.
ONE.THIRD AREA IN FOREST
Rows Of Tres as Wind Breaks in Dry
Regions Will Conserve Moisture
and Also Safe Guard the Humidity
in Wind Paths.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24,-To pro-
perly regulate stream-fow and to
protect the soil from washing, not
less than from one-fifth to one-third
of the total area of the country
should be in forest. This was the
recommendations made by the for
estry committee at the fifth national
conservation congress.
Forests must be protected, the
committee adds, not so much in
localities which already suffer from
lack Of moisture as in regions which
lie in the path of prevailing winds
and are still abundantly supplied
both with ground water and precipi
tation. In the Atlantic plain there.
fore, and in the southern Appala
chians, the gateways for the prevail
ing winds from the Gulf of Mexico
and the Atlantic ocean, forests must
be especially conserved if the humi
dity of the great central basin Of the
country, the granary Of the contin
ent, is to be maintained.
Where the clearing of the forest in
the Atlantic and Gulf coast states is
a necessity, it should be done only
under the condition that the cleared
land is to be devoted to intense cul
tivation, as, after forests, crops con
tribute most to the moisture of the
air. Forests themselves, according
to the scientists, evaporate into the
air several times more moisture than
is given off by water surfaces OF
equal area and these southeastern
forests act as moisture reservoir
for the water which falls upon them
and is in tur ntaken up and passed
on again.
BY safeguarding the humidity in
the regions which lie in the path OF
the prevailing winds the farm lands
further inland ought to get more
rain. Cleared land which becomes
waste, or poor pasture, or grows uI
to weak vegetation means SO much
evaporation lost to the passing all
currents.
In dry regions rows of trees OF
windbreaks surrounding fields and
orchards, by preventing the drifting
of the snow and increasing the ac
tivity of the wind, will be more like
ly to act as conservers of moisture
in the soil than solid bodies ol
timber.

TWO MORE FLYERS
KILLED IN A FALL
FROM AEROPLANE
MEMBERS OF THE FIRST DIvI.
SION OF U. S. ARMY AVA.
TiON CORPS.
The TRAGEDY UNEXPLAINED
Were Trying Out New Machine at
San Diego, Calf, and Were About
One Hundred Feet From Ground.
List of Dead Now Fifteen.

SAN DIEGO, Calf, Nov. 25.-
Lieuts. Eric c. Ellington and Hugh
M. Kelly, first division army aviation
corps, were killed today in a fall of
about eighty feet in an aearoplane,
across the bay from San Diego on
the grounds of the army school on
North Island.
Kelly was first lieutenant in the
twenty y-sixth infantry and Ellington
first lieutenant in the third cavalry,
U. S. A.
Kelly was native of Louisville,
KY. He had been commandant at
the Kentucky State University and
was a son of Col r. M. Kelly, who
was well known for many years as
editor of the Louisville Commercial.
Both aviators were single.
Lieut.. Ellington was born in North
Carolina in 1889 and his next of kin
is brother, J. 0. Ellington, of Ra-
leigh. He was detailed to the avia-
ton service in September, 1918 and
has seen service on aviation fields at
Marble Head, Mass. College Park,
Md, Palm Beach, Fla, and Texas
City He went to San Diego last
June.
No reason for the accident was dis
covered The machine was shatter-
eG. Capt A. C. Cowan, commanding
the post, was among eyewitnesses Of
the accident.
They were trying out new six cyl
inder machine" he said, "and they
were between 80 and 100 feet from
the ground when they lost control.
The machine was new one and
Kelly was not familiar with it. FL
lington went as instructor. The ma
chine had a dual control which ena-
bles each occupant to manage 1t at
will. The controls were connected,
enabling the instructor to correct in
stantly any mistake made by the pu-
pill.
THE men arose at 1853 a. m. and
sailed around the field for about five
minutes. OF course they were max
ing no attempts at sensational work.
"They fell about one mile from the
Headquarters tent, toward Point To-
ma. The land slopes down toward
the beach and is so low we could not
see the machine strike.
THE machine apparently began it's
descent in a proper manner and at
the usual angle. Then it appeared
out of control The altitude was so
low we felt the officers would have
only q rough fall.
"A careful inspection of the wreck
ed aeroplane convinced us that the
controls were in good order. Both
men were instantly killed."
! With the deaths Of Lieuts. Kelly
and Ellington today the list of fatli-
ties among aviators in the United
States army and navy reached fifteen.
! In aviation accidents Of all kinds
the world over 1868 persons have
been killed since 1908, this years
numbering 1913.

FRANKLIN BOYS ARE SHUT OUT
Spring Hill Aggregation Won by
Score of Thirteen to Nothing and

(By Special Correspondents


SPRING HILL, Tenn, Nov. 25.-In
their annual struggle, the purple and
white of Branham & Hughes again
waves victorious over the gold and
blue of their ancient rivals, Battle
Ground Academy. BY the decisive
score of 13 to o. Before a crowd of
at least thousand spectators, wild
" enthusiastic over their respective
teams, on an afternoon that could
not be surpassed from a football
standpoint, they rolled up two touch
downs in the last half that gave them
undisputed supremacy on the grid
iron.
Conditions could hardly have been
more ideal for the staging of this an
nual classic Franklin turned out
practically en- masse to gain what
they thought would be certain victo-
ry for their team, flushed with yictop
ry over the strong Greene team of
Athens, Alabama. All Spring Hill
was out, and seven machines loaded
with Columbia folk. came up to see
the struggle, which, among prep
schools of this section, corresponds
to the Thanksgiving scrap on Dudley
Field between Sewanee and Wander
bilt Well repaid were they, for new
or has a prettier game between prep
schools been seen. AS for the wealth
er, while it was trifle warm for
the players, yet for the spectators it
was ideal. A warm mellow Novem-
ber sun that made wraps and over
coats unnecessary beamed down upon
the field and stirred the partisans of
the two teams into almost frenzy
of ecstacy as some favorite player
pulled off long run.
AS to the relative merits of the
two teams, Branham & Hughes prob
ably lad the shade. Their line was
the stronger, their interference, which
was often made up of six or seven
men, was superb, and the headwork
used in running the team and dag
nosing their opponents plays was
magnificent. Battle Ground, howev-
er, was by no means weak, and at
times brought the crowd to their feet
by some long run around end or a
well executed forward pass. They
scored two touchdowns, also, but both
were called back by the referee, who
claimed in one case, that the runner
had stepped out of bounds with the
ball, and in the other that he had
blown his whistle before the Battle
Ground man picked up a fumbled ball
and started down the field for a clear
touchdown. The main weakness,
however, of the Franklin eleven was
that they failed to display any very
great amount of brains in sizing up
tho weakness of their opponents and
directing their play at that point.
Three-fourths of their plays were
aimed at the Branham & Hughes
line, which held like a stone wall and
prevented even a single first down
from being made over it. The latter
charged like college team and jam
med the B. G. A. forwards back into
