Dissolution Plan Threatened

NEW lORh, MarGil O.-DallN con-
fercnceS are now being held by the
directors Of the Union Pacific as we'll
as the Southern Pacific Company. with
regard to the possible modification Of
the plan of dissolution Of the two com
panies. Up to the present time it is
stated that nothing Of definite char

il is practical certainty that neither
of the two companies referred to will
be willing to accept a plan which will
admit the Western Pacific to the Use
of Bcnicia cutoff and terminals of The
Southern Pacific, as ordered by the
California state railroad commission. 1t
is understood that rather than grant
these concessions the officials of both
the Union and Southern Pacific Will
favor abandoning the present plan as
outlined few weeks ago in lis en-

The abandonment Of this plan will
naturally prove costly to the Union

DfCALOCUF OF
FOREST SERVICE

The forest service has devised a
decalogue for the use of farmers in
the plains region. These ten com
mandments are to be displayed as part
of the exhibit which the forest service
is preparing for an exposition to be
held during October at Tulsa, Okla
homa, in connection with the eighth
International Dry Farming congress.
The commandments for owners of
windbreaks are as follows:
!. Place the windbreak at right an
giles to the direction of injurious pre-.
vailing winds
2. Devote from e-eighth to one
fifth of the farm to timber. Its pro-
teetive value more than pays for the
ground it occupies, to say nothing of
the timber yield.
3. Plant only species suited to
windbreak use, to the region and to
the locality.
4. Plant rapid growers for quick
results; but underplant with slower
growing species, which are usually
longer lived and more valuable
5. Supplement- a deciduous wind
break with evergreens to afford pro-
lection in winter
6. Separate trees by spacing proper
to the species used. The trees should
be close enough to produce a dense
windbreak and to yield good poles, but
should not he so crowded as to produce
spindling growth.
Z. Make the windbreak thick from
the bottom up, especially on the side
toward the wind. This may be done
by using species which branch near
the round, by planting outside rows of
low-g growing trees. by encouraging
natural reproduction, and by under
planting.
s. Cultivate the plantation thor
oughly while it is young.
9. Do not allow excessive grazing
where reproduction is desired
: 10. Do not thin your woodlot too
heavily or take out the best trees for
minor uses. Remember that a timber
tract should be improved by use and
that each clearing should leave it in
better condition than before.
Other exhibits will show the proper
locations for windbreaks, suitable
species for planting, and the direction
of harmful prevailing winds in vari-
GUS regions.
