To overcome this handicap. foresters
find it preferable to grow the seed
lings in nursery beds where the seeds
and plants can be protected by wire
screens and shade frames and where
water can be applied when needed.
Usually. too, the seedlings are trans
planted once or twice before they are
set out in their final situation this prac-
tice serving to develop stccky plants
with compact. sturdy roots. While the
nursery and transplcnting process in
wolves more work. Il is generally con-
sidered cheaper in proportion to the
results accomplished. particularly
when the cost OF seed is taken into
account.

ARTIFICIAL REFoREsTATIoN
AccoMPLISHEs GOOD RESULTS

Forest tree seed sown directly in the
spots weber trees are to grow is yield
ing good results in young trees on the
Gunnison and Arapahoe national for
ests in central Colorado and on the
Black Hills forest in South Dakota.
In many cases failures have followed
this practice because squirrels, mice
and birds often eat the seed, where
they are sown without protection, and
even when these pests allow the seed
to germinate excessive drying out of
the soil during long periods is usually
too much for the tiny seedlings during
their first season.

ment Of the Canal Zone. now that the
Panama canal is practically completed,

status of that narrow strip of territory
1t is exactly ten miles WIDE extending
five miles each way from the axis of
the canal channel. over this zone the
United States. under it's treaty with
Panama, exercises jurisdiction "as if it
were sovereign
Within this zone, however, lie the
cities of Panama and Colon, which are
excepted from the American control
and are part and parcel of the republic
of Panama proper.

run from the inside of the skin to the

are very minute and round. These
pores act as drainage system for the
entire body. But in order that they

Of disease. The employment of
thermal or hot-air baths is the most
efficient method to relieve disease and
to PREVENT it. To cure disease we
must remove the cause. Thermal

son. says: We may walk in air
which is simply swarming with germs:
we may wade in water that is fairly
stiff with them; we may dig and bur-

them. and never know that they are
there. But if they happen to get in
under the skin they can stir up all
