portant Office duties, DR.. Ledbet-
ter was sent in his stead. DIR.
Ledbetter is a member of the
State Board of Health and pres
ident of the State Medical So
ciety. His subject, discussing
the aim Of the State Medical
Society was well received and
emphasized that the medical So
ciety is not organized for selfish
motives, but purely for the So
cial benefit derived from their
frequent gathering. He did not
devote his entire time to this
particular subject and spoke
along the lines of sanitation,
urging the individual and the
housekeeper to cooperate with
the health officer to better health
conditions. He also mentioned
the fact that the small salary of
two hundred dollars a year paid
to physician as parish health
was considered very
small and for that reason he was
considered a joke in many parts
Of the state. An amount of not
less than nine hundred dollars
should be paid this officer and il
the officer carries out all the
work that is expected of him by
the Board a sum Of twelve hun
dred dollars would not be too
much.

Morgan contracted a severe cold while in Egypt, which further weak ened him. A state of mental depres- sion and feebleness developed.

MORE NATIONAL FOREST
 TIMBER FOR SALE

! WASHINGTON, April 7-The For i tise the twelfth large lot of National Forest timber offered for sale within
 the past nine months. Altogether it has advertised since July 1, 1912,
 the beginning of the fiscal year, about 2,5O0,000,0 900 feet, and has closed con- tracts for the sale of 1,7OO,O 900 ,OOO feet. The latest advertised sale is of approximately 52,OOO,OOO feet of saw timber in the Rainier National Forest, about 35 miles from Tacoma In offering National Forest timber
 for sale the government first makes
 on an area which would naturally form
 a single logging unit, and which offers
 attractive opportunities for the lum-
 herman. The probable cost of log
 ging and manufacturing by a capable
 lumberman is then. estimated. On
 the basis of these estimates combin-
 ed with the figures for market value; and freight chrages the timber is ap-
 praised and then advertised for sale. with the appraised value as a mini mum price.
 The minimum prices set for the Rainier timber vary from 50 cents to S1.5O per thousand feet, according to the kind of timber These are stumpage prices-that is, the pur- chaser buys the trees on the stump and does all the logging, but pays ac- cording to the board foot measure of the logs. The government aims to allow the manufacturer liberal prof. 1t on the basis that numbering in- wolves a good deal of business risk, ! and the minimum stumpage prices l are fixed accordingly. Often, how ever, competitive bids raise the price | above the advertised minimum
 One of the provisions of the con- tract which the successful bidder for the Rainier timber will enter into will be that if market prices ad- vance materially the governments chief forester may, after the sale has 'un three years, require a reasonable 'eadJustment of the stumpage prices ID to an added 50 cents per thousand. The object of this stipulation is to prevent loss to the government-that s. to the public-and an undue profit o the purchaser through long-term contracts entered into on a rising market. Provision against such
 speculative profits is regarded as es- necessary in view of the
The copper era and Morenci leader., 1913-04-18

long-term sales now, sometimes made
 inaccessible timber.
 For the Ranier sale the cutting period allowed is only five years,
 since the quantity of timber involv-
 ed approximately 52,OOO,OoO board
 feet-does not call for an extended
 operation. One National Forest
 sale made this year was for SOC, O,OOO,-
 900 board feet and the purchasers
 were allowed a cutting period of twenty-two years besides a prelimin- ary two years in which to build railroad. Usually purchasers must
 begin operating the year of pur- chase and cut stipulated amount each year.
 The latter provision is simply an example of a fundamental principle that is applied in all national forest timber sales. The primary object is described as being not profit for the government but benefit to the public. Nowhere is the policy strictly commercial one. The conditions of cutting are carefully prescribed from the standpoint of present as we'll as future needs. The highest bid for the contract may be rejected, and is rejected if it appears that to give the bidder the contract would tend to facilitate timber monopoly and so subject the consumer to a hardship In other words, the government for esters consider that they should not only make the forests grow as fast as possible but also make them as useful as possible to the public.
