Soil Experts In Government Work
More than a score of government
men whose special training is in the
determining of soil values and the
use of timber lands held weeks con-
ference at Ogden, Utah, recently on
the work of segregating the agricul.
tural lands found within the national
forests. These lands are to be thrown
open to homesteaders.
Prior to the Nelson amendment"
on August 10, 1912, agricultural lands
within national forests were examined
and listed only when applied for by
a prospective homesteader. The new
law directs the secretary to list all
lands chiefly valuable for agriculture
without waiting for an application.
The experts of the bureau of soils
will determine what portions of a
given area are positively adapted to
agricultural use.

Odds and Ends

Odds and Ends
1t is better to bite the dust than to
kiss it,
A man may look wise and yet be
otherwise.
Good management is better than a
good income.
Buying cheap goods to save money
is like stopping the clock to save
time.
Many a mans charity begins and
ends with his willingness to pass the
hat.
The man who can but doesn't, must
give way to the man who can't. but
tries.
Stick to your business. Few men
have brains enough for two or three.
Some automobile owners are hard
pressed to keep the wolf from the

Keep a little ahead of your business.
Don't let your business get ahead of
you.
