NORMAL EXPERT WILL
HUNT FORAGE PLANT

ment Tor a hardy forage plant Tor
the Flagstaff region the Agricul
tural Department of the Normal
school has been making inquiries
into the suitability of white sage"
tor the purpose. Winter tat is
another name for it-so called
because of its fattening qualities
when winter grazed. 1t thrives in
semi arid regions and at high alti-
tudes, being perfectly at home in
the foothills or on the plains of
Nevada, Wyoming and Utah.
Concerning the possibilities of
this sage the reports SO far are
encouraging where it is at home
it is known to be exceedingly val
liable for the range. The only
question is concerning its propa-
cation and whether it would be
thrifty enough in this locality to
make it more valuable than the
species already here. Professor
P. d. Kennedy of the Nevada Ex-
pertinent Station has the following
to say concerning the subject,
There is no question as to the
value of white sage, Eurotia
Lanata, as a forage plant in its
native habitat. Its value under
cultivated conditions or in reseed-
ing for range purposes has not
yet been determined. The sheep
which range in Northern Nevada
during the summer months are
driven to the white sage valleys
in the eastern and central part of
the state in the winter. There
they feed almost exclusively on
this plant, being driven every
other day to the foothills for snow,
which they eat instead of water.
This has been done to such an
extent that the plants which used
to grow one and two feet high now
only produce meager shoots, five
to ten in a cluster and from five to
six inches high.
AS an indication that it will
grow under varying conditions |
may say that in the Grass garden
in Washington d. c., the plant
grow so well that it was almost
unacceptable. In fact it was
about four feet high with large
leaves and long Towering stems.
There is no plant that | know of
more worthy of experimentation
for range purposes than the white
sage"
The following from Professor
T. S. Parsons of the University of
Wyoming is along the same line;
The white sage that you mention
is the same that we commonly
call sweet sage in Wyoming and is
considered a very good forage
plant. 1t is widely distributed
over the state but not now very
plentiful because stock seek it so
eagerly that it is becoming exter-
minated in many places. 1t grows
readily on the Laramie Plains at
an altitude of 5000 feet and we
are much farther north than you
are. 1t thrives also on cultivated
land making a rapid growth and
providing winter pasture of great
value so | think it could be
utilized on some of your vacant
land as forage plant
The Agricultural Department is
making active preparations to try
out white sage next summer,
under both field and range condi-
tons.

ADVOCATES FEDERAL
CONTROL Of FORESTS
United Stats Forester Made VigOr.
GUS Speech Before Conservation
Congress at Washington

ester, spoke before the National
Conservation Congress in session
today, dwelling particularly on the
present policies Of the government
in respect to the activities of the
forest service. Referring to the
attitude OF the present administra-
ton, as to the so-called states
rights policy, which has advocated
state instead of federal control of
forests, Mr.. Graves says there is
no thought of any change in the
established system of federal
ownership and control.
The Forester spoke in part as
follows.
The nation has an important
stake in forestry. Here as in all
other countries, the real develop
ment of forestry began when the
government took up it's practice.
Even today some persons would
leave the forests entirely to pri-
vate owners, others insist that the
public phases of forestry are al
together a state function and
federal activities in this field I'M
called for. Those who hold this
view are usually either lukewarm
concerning the need for forest
conservation or opposed to re-
stricting private activities. Yet
unrestricted private exploitation
forests is impossible if we are to
continue to have the forests that
the nation needs.
National responsibility in for
estry is perfectly clearcut. There
need be no confusion with an
equally clearcut responsibility of
the states. And as to private
forestry little OF value has so far
been done that has not been an
outcome of public action through
state or federal agencies, or both.
The national work will be the
backbone of American forestry,
not trenching on or interfering
with state work or individual
efforts, but serving as a guarantee
that national needs which individ-
ual states cannot meet will be
provided for on national scale.
Underlying the forestry prob
lem are two fundamental consid-
erations which should be empha-
sized and reiterated until thor
oughly driven home. One is the
public character of forestry. Both
in the matter Of continued sup
ply of forest products and in that
of the conservation of water re-
sources the public welfare is at
stake. Secondly, stability of pol
icy and permanence of ownership
are essential to any successful
attack on this great conservation
problem.
Il am frequently asked as |
travel about the country whether
| am going to make important
changes in forestry policy. ] was
asked that very often in 1910,
when | first took Office. | am
asked it often this year. My
answer is that what we are seek
ing is not changes but the devel-
opment of permanent public
enterprises with consistent and
stable policies. The national
forests were set aside in the recog-
milton that the bulk of these lands
should be handled permanently
under public protection and con-
troll.
The aim of the present admin
istration is not to overturn, but to
take every possible step to in
crease efficiency or the organiza-
ton, to adjust difficulties, and to
advance as fast as possible the
purposes for which the national
forests were established. Secre-
tary Houston recently said to me:

Gold Reports on Alaska.

The United States geological survey
has just published as Bulletin 620-H
q report on the mining and water sup
ply Of the Forty1ile, S~eventymile, Cir
Gle and Fairbanks districts, Alaska.
by E. A. Porter and c. E. Ellsworth.
The estimated value Of the combined
gold production of the Fortymile and
Seventymile districts for 1911 was
1912, 600, an increase of $4,000 over
the output for 1910 due to the success
of two dredges on the headwaters of
Fortymile river. The value of the
gold production of the Fairbanks dis
trict in 1911 ia estimated to be approx
imately $4,000, 900. a decrease of ST.
900, 600 from the output for 1910. due
mainly to the fact that most of the
bonanzas of the camp have been work.
ed out and the major part of the min.
ing was confined to deposits Of rela'
lively low grade. The Circle precinct
in 1911 produced gold with an esti.
mated value of $350,000, which exceeds
that of any other year since 1898. The
increase was due entirely to the i'm
proved methods employed.

GIVEN FREEDOM,

Henry N.yhus of Steele county
held in the Cass county Jail on a
body warrant. was released yes
terday after he had satisfied a
judgement registered against
him in his home coonty.
The young man has made a
hard fight to escape the Judge
ment and was refused his liber.
ty on habeas corpus proceedings
by the supreme court last week.
The judgment was obtained by
S%tephanns Skogland. whose
daughter Nyhus is alleged to-
have wronged The young man
was acquitted in criminal pro.
ceedings brought against him
but the father Of the Young
woman obtained Judgment i'm a
civil suit
Nyhus is said. to be a wealthy
farmer and to have considerable
property in his own light. A
writ OF execution granted Steele
county failed to bring satisfac-
ton of the Judgment, however.
and the plaintiff in the suit had
Nyhus arrested on a body war
rant and confined in the Cass
county Jail where he was paying
his board.
Nyhus' attorneys. made a hard
fight to procure the freedom of
the cliant but we're beaten in
District court before Judge Poll
ock and later in the Supreme
court.
Yesterday the mother of the
young man, and his attorneys,
held a consultation and as a re-
suit the amount of the Judgment
which was $1,875 with some
interest and costs, was paid and
he regained his liberty.
Nyhus left for his home in
Steele county last evening &C
companied by his mother.

Our Schools.

Probably no subject is OF more inn
portance to the people OF our city and
county than our schools and school
facilities, and the question with us is,
to ever be on the lookout for ways and
pneans of improving same
Our city schools are recognized far
and near, by all who have investigated
same, to be the best city schools in the
State, an honor that the Union City
people are justly proud of. Our county
schools are probably equal to the aver
age of other counties of the State. But
to simply be as good, or better, than
some others should not satisfy us, il
there is better way, or plan, by which
they may become still greater.
Our city schools have added every
department, except agriculture (and
they hope to add that soon), that is now
taught in the State, and about the only
way at present to improve would be to
build greater school. To do that |
would suggest that the taxing district
of Union City should be extended a
mile OF mile and half, making all
within that district pay the same school
tax as we now pay. In that way they
would equal up with those in the cor
poration, and we could then build an
other primary school on the east side
and give all within the school district
the advantages Of the best schools any
where.
There is no school law that can ex-
actly fit all cases, as there are those just
over the line, whether that line be the
corporate limits or a mile out, who feel
that they ought to be allowed to send
to the city school, and that, too, with
out paying the extra school tax that is
imposed on those within the school line.
Wherever that line is fixed those on the
outside have no right to send on an
equal basis with those within. Then
again we should have less schools in
county, and better ones.
II the plan now being used at Mason
Hall was followed all over the county,
land run the schools eight or nine
months in the year, making every
school secondary high school, as was
recently talked Of, and then establish
ling one large County High School al
Union City, according to the recent pro-
posals, Obion County would be the great
est school county in the State.
| Let's talk greater schools for Union
/ City and Obion County and the plans
will be worked out to the satisfaction ol
the majority Of the people.
