NATIONAL FOREST
timber FOR SALE
Government Offers s., 00o, 900 Feet in
Rainier District, Near
Tacoma.
TWELFTH LARGE LOT OFFERED.

The Forest Service has just begun to
advertise the twelfth large lot of Ma
tional Forest timber offered for sale
within the past nine months. Altogether
it has advertised since July l. 1912. the
beginning of the present fiscal year,
about 2,50o. 100000 board feet. and has
closed contracts for the sale of LOO 0O0,-
900 board feet The latest advertised
sale is of approximately 100000 board
feet Of saw timber in the Rainier Ma
tionaI Forest, about IS miles from Ia
coma
In Offering National Forest timber for
sale the government first makes an esti-
mate of the quantity of timber on an
area which would naturally form sim
gle logging unit, and which offers attrac-
tive opportunities for the lumbermen.
The probable cost of logging and manu-
featuring by a capable lumberman is
then estimated.
The minimum prices set for the Rainier
timber vary from so cents to $l50 per
thousand feet, according to the kind of
timber. These are stumpage prices-that
is the purchaser buys the trees on the
stump and does all the logging. but pays
according to the board foot measure OF
the logs The government aims to al
low the manufacturer a liberal profit on
the basis that numbering involves a good
deal of business risk. and the minimum
stumpage prices are fixed accordingly.

THE WASHINGTON HERALD. TUESDAY. APRIL 8. 1913.

Often, however. competitive bids raise
the price above the advertised minimum.
For the Rainier sale the cutting period
allowed is only FIVE Years. since the
quantity of timber involved-approximate
ly 100000 board feet-does not call
for an extended operation. One National
Forest sale made this year was for
500, 900 board feet. and the purchasers
were allowed cutting period Of twenty.
two years besides a preliminary two
years in which to build a railroad. Usual
ly purchasers must begin operating the
year of purchase and cut a stipulated
amount each year.

NO ACTION BIZ MARSHALL.
Vice Presidcnt Refuses to Act o,
Charges Against senator.

Vice PfcStdcnt hefuses 10 Act ON
Charges Against senator.
Vice President Marshall. after taking
the advice of many Senators, decided
yesterday that he was not warranted in
laying before the Senate the affidavit
reciting charges Of immortality against
a Senator. which have been the subject
of gossip in Washington for week or
more following an alleged occurrence in
local hotel.
In reaching this conclusion the Vice
President took into consideration the fact
that the statement was addressed to him
personally and not to the Senate as
body. When the complaining persons
who have made the charges against the
Senator learned of the Vice Presidents
decision, which they did from a, letter
he addressed to them. they Immediately
took steps to overcome his objection by
to him a letter containing a
to the Senate which was in
the form of an affidavit from the woman
who had complained and an accompany
ing statement from her husband.
All afternoon the Vice President
wrestled with the new problem put up
to him. He had plenty of advice from
Senators. Finally. after receiving a
steady stream of Senatorial callers, who
urged him to ignore the charges. Mr..
finally decided he would not
lay the matter before the Senate in any
FORM

IL this is YOUR birthdate, YOU must
learn the lesson Of application and con-
centration of effort.
Having great strength of character.
seeing results long before they arc at
tanned, possessed of enthusiasm and
magnetism. you lack serious and steady
application. If you will recognize this
fault within yourself and strive to cor
rect it, there is nothing which you
cannot achieve.
You need companions who are calm
and tranquil, for your own nature is
so full of vitality that You are always
seeking the restfulncss of more tran
quill natures.
A person of this brthdate should
decide serious and momentous questions
of their life when alone and in a calm
state OF mind. When once decided on
a course of action they should refrain
from talking over their plans, but pro-
coed to follow their own guidance.
They will find the present week an
advantageous week for buying and

sed and domestics will place themselves in

STATE FOOD LAW VOID.
Supreme Court So Rules in Regard
to Wisconsin Statute.

The Wisconsin pure food law, penal
statute, yesterday was declared to be
void by the Supreme Court. 1t was
passed in 1906 and made dealers subject
to fine and Imprisonment, who have for
sale any goods that are not branded in
accordance with the strict requirements
Of the Wisconsin regulations.
The court yesterday held that the Fed
eral food and drugs act applies to labels
on cans or containers intended for the
consumer and not alone to the labels on
the boxes in which the cans were ship
ped Justice Day, who read the opinion
said that the effort of the State to exer-
else control over the goods Immediately
upon their removal from the boxes in
which they were shipped was manifestly
an interference with the section Of the
Federal food and drugs act against mis-
branding. and, therefore, in conflict with
the Federal power to regulate interstate
commerce

the law was being violated to bring in

jurisdiction, and stated that he did not

ECHO OF COAL CASES.
Justice Lurton Rules on Sfxt.-hve-
year Contracts.

There was an echo Of the anthracite
coal cases in the Supreme Court yester-
day, when Justice Lurton read the opin-
ion of the court passing on the petition
of six holders of the so-called So per cent
contracts for delivery of coal to the
anthracite roads, asking to be exempted
from the decree OF the court ordering
the cancellation of the contracts.
Justice Lurton held that as to the
sixty-five-year contracts held by the
Pennsylvania Coal Company, which had
petitioned, the Attorney General had con-
scented that the decree should not apply
to them because of the peculiar circum-
stances of the case. As to the other five
petitioners. their petitions were referred
to the court below with directions to
hear and determine the questions on their
merits

McADO0 IN DESPAIR
To Evndc Being Bothered He Goes
TO Hotel to Do Work.

Driven to despair by the continued
rush upon him Of officeseekers, Secretary
Of the Treasury McAdoo hit upon a novel
scheme yesterday. He grabbed up a
batch OF papers and his stenographer,
slipped out back door, climbed into a
taxicab. and made a dash for the wild
woods and green fields. The wind was a
bit strong and the air somewhat too
chilly for successful outdoor operations,
however, so he returned to the city and
sought out quiet, out-of-the-way no.
tel. where he managed to get room
without disclosing his identity. All aft
ernoon and up to midnight he worked,
free from interruption. not once leaving
the room until he was ready for bed and
sleep.
Secretary McAdoo returned yesterday
morning from New York. where he spent
his first weekend i'm two weeks. He
thought that he might slip back to his
old home unobserved, but he was
bounded all day Saturday and Sunday,
so that he returned yesterday without
having enjoyed any real rest.
