but it also has some very sandy and
rocky land that is practically unfit for
agricultural purposes. And it is these
tracts the state is picking up to main
tain our forests.
The charge that the lands that the
state is buying are good agricultural
lands will hardly stand up when it is
shown that the lands are bought only
after the soil survey is made and lands
designated as agricultural lands are
not purchased. There may be an oc-
casional strip, that is an exception,
but this is bought in order to concen-
trate the state lands for forest fire
protection. And right here it might
be mentioned that the system devised
is so thorough that it is almost i'm
possible for a fire to get into the tim
Der and if it starts it is quickly de-
tected and put out. 1t is operated by
a system of telephones and high steel
towers, watched by forest rangers.
The forest reserves, according to
Mr. Griffith, will be confined practi-
cally to the counties OF Oneida, Villas
and Forest. The lowest line will
come down to about six miles north
of Rhinelander, SO that large portion
of that county will not even be
touched. The only real grievance
that these counties can have is that it
is taking some property from taxation
thereby raising their taxes. This
will, however, be remedied by the
legislature, as a bill has been drawn
up providing that the state pay into
the county treasury certain proper
ton of the taxes that would have been
collected had these lands been private
~ owned. But in addition to that
the state has already done consider
a bic for these counties in the way of
building roads. This will more than
compensate the counties for any loss
they might have derived from taxes
had the land been owned by private
parties.
Mr.. Griffith further stated that
within from ten to fifteen years the
state would be deriving good income
from its forests. This year it sold
$40, 900 in forest products.
There are other features connected
with the states policy that might be
gene into, but it hardly seems neces-
sary here as we believe Langlade
county people generally are in favor
of the plan that is being worked, and
we feel assured that when the people
in these other counties fully under
stand it they will withdraw their OPP
position.
If the Amigo Journal fully un-
derstood the situation, you can
rest assured they would not have
fathered in the whole such an
idiotic and untruthful spill from
a pen.

The Amigo Journal butts into
the reforestration game with a
purported editorial interview
with Mr.. Griffith last week. AS
Langlade county is out of the
forest reserve belt, we cannot un-
derstand why the Journal should
father an article without any
truth in It, and without having
made any evident investigation
as to the truths or misrepresen-
tations which Mr.. Griffith should
have uttered.
The Journals interview with
Mr.. Griffith is as follows:
There has been considerable opposi-
tion developed in several of the north
ern counties to the policy of the state
with regard to its forest reserve
policy. This policy has been fostered
we believe simply because the people
were ignorant of the real work that is
being done.
1t was our (the Journal's) privilege
TO have a conversation with State
Forester Griffith today and he went
into detail regarding the work that is
being done, and il would seem that
anyone with any foresight would COM
mend the work after hearing his ac-
count of it. The Journal with only
meagre information at hand, had
always felt that the work was prog
ressing in the right direction but now
we are certain of it.

A ROVER.

There was a man from Balsam
Grove
Started long place to rove.
On one bright and happy day
He says, I'll 60 down south, there
to stay. /
He plodded his way over the hills
To South Carolina to inspect the
mills.
The sweet memory the Balsam
hills
Filled his soul in trashy cotton
mills.
Oh, bless his soul! He began to
repent.
And think how much money he
had spent.
The two long months of trouble
and roam
He said It'll 90 back to my faith
er's home.
But when he saw the boys in
their dirty clothes,
He turned on the stream for Bal
sam Grove.
Over the hills he plodded, hungry
and cold,
AS he returnined to his fathers
home.
On one morning just as the chick
ems crow
The young man reached his cabin
door.
With tears in his eyes to over
flow:
This is your son, father. do you
you not knoW?"
The fatted calf was brought and
killed,
That the son had returned from
over the hills.
Young men, take warning of
Balsam Grove,
Never more of you to rove.

The HARVESTING OF TALLOLAH FAILS

The development of Tallulah
Falls by the Georgia Railway
and Power Company is going to
rank as one of the great engineer
ing feats of the age, according to
the belief OF distinguished engineers
who have recently viewed the site.
In the development of the falls
the natural beauty of the surround
lngs will not be marred, says a dis
patch sent out from Atlanta. The
magnificent scenic effects will be
enhanced rather than disfgured.
With the development of the
falls. power, light and heat will be
carriedto thousands of commune
ties, many OF which have not had
any power or electricity before.
The height Oh the dam is 115 #.
the length is sou feet, while the
base IS approximately 100 feet. The
length OF the tunnel through which
the Ialulan River is TO flow is 6 663
feet, and this~is the really remark
able feature OF the development, as
nearly every loot OF the way is hewn
through the solid rock. The lake
seven miles from the power house
will hold 1,205,OOO,0OO cubic feet of
water.-Keowee Courier.
