FORESTRY HEARING u
WELL ATTENDED

The forestry committee arrived
Monday afternoon and commenced
the taking of testimony from Villas
county citizens, concluding next day.
There was a large number of Villas
county farmers and business men
present and some valuable anti-for-
estry facts sworn to by them. We
have heard in an indirect way, that
the committee will make report
that it is not advisable for the state
to acquire more forestry lands until
it develops more clearly what those
already secured, are going to amount
to as a financial investment, both for
present and future generations.
Whether such, will be the nature of
the report, remains to be seen, still,
as it would simply be an expression
of ordinary sense and justice, people
can with reason expect it. Judging
from the hostile sentiment that ex-
lists in all parts of the state, caused
by high taxes, ETC., such report will
be good politics for those legislative
members who are willing to serve
their country for another term. If
we read the political outlook correct
ly, economy and reGrencillnenG" viii
be the slogan carried by the next Leg
islature that convenes. There is also
some talk that a compromise will be
proposed, that of taking four or six
townships, beginning at Township AZ
N, and within and including Ranges
tot for reforestry development,
with the provision that any agricult-
ural lands within the area, may be
purchased by actual settlers at any
time in future. Going on the
theory Of half loaf being better than
no loaf, we are not prepared to dem
onstrate that such an action would
not be better for Villas county than
to be almost utterly eradicated from
the map of Wisconsin.

VANDERBILTS PISCAH
ESTATE GOES TO u. S.
Widow Sells North Carolina Prop
erty Ito Perpetuate Forest
Conservation"

The famous Pisgah forest, from
the estate of the late Geosge w.
Vanderbilt in North Carolina has
been purchased by the National
Forest commission at an average
price of s. per acre. The tract
consists of $500 acres and the,
cost is therefore $433, 500. The
paid is less than the average paid
for other tracts already acquired,
although the pisgah forest has
been developed by its former
owner into one of the best pro-
perties in the country. The tract
includes portions of Pennsylvania,
Henderson, Buncombe and Hay
wood counties in North Carolina
and it's forests influence for the
most part tributaries of the French
Broad river, which unites with
the Holston at Knoxville to form
the Tennessee river.
Mrs. Edith L. Vanderbilt, to
whom her husband gave the land
in fee, sells it at a much lower
price than offered by her husband
by her husband, and in offering it.
to the government said: II make
the contribution towards the pub,

with the earnest hope that in this
way may help to perpetuate my
husbands pioneer work in forest
conservation and to insure the
protection and the use ane enjoy
ment of Pisgah forest as a nation

for all time"
The government will name the
tract "Pisgah area" as requested
by Mrs. Vanderbilt, and make it a
game refuge for the preservation
of the eastern mountains.

Real Generosity

in Cevlon where he found a band
of students so poor that sixteen
of them occupied one room. Near
the building was a garden d
which they spent their spare tine
cultivating bananas. When Mr..
Mott inquired; What do you do
with the money!" they took him
to the shore and pointed to an
island of at sea. 1.-TWO years ago.
they said, I'VE sent one of our
graduates there. He started a
school, and it has now developed
into a church. We are going to
send him to another island this

structed their cook that every
tenth handful of rise should be
laid aside that they might sell it in
order to have Christ preached a
little more widely.

Nine Reasons for Building
a SilO

First-Cows fed on silage in
winter give milk in quality and
quantity equal to June pastures.
Second-One acre of corn in a
silo feeds as far as three acres
outside. Therefore a silo enables
the same farm to carry three times
the number of cattle.
Third-A good silo will pay for
itself in one year.
Fourth-The cornstalkS con-
tain 40 per cent of the corn value.
Save them with a silo. r.
Fifth-Silage is the feed during
a drouth in summer.
Sixth-Cows give 20 per cent
more milk on silage feed.
Seventh-Silage is a cheap feed,
everything taken into considera-
ton.
Eighth-Silage keeps the herd
in good condition all winter,
Ninth-Sllage furnishes warm
and suculent feed in winter.

dead and of sympathy with the
living. She was laid to rest in
Union Cemetery at Newport, on
Wednesday April 20, 1914.
But she hath joined that happy
throng,
OF souls redeemed on high
Methinks hear her glad sweet song,
Before the throne of God.
She fingered with Us just awhile,
We loved that dear, sweet face
We see her yet--her pleasant smile
Her hand SO kind, SO true. :.
Bat call her back again-ah, no!
How could one take from her
The joy that she has found? For 10,
Her sorrows pass away!
OF such as she, this world hath need,
But he must need her more;
Gods plan thro' tears we cannot re at
Yet surely it is well.
For God we know doth not mistake,
His plan for us is best
And still we feel our hearts must
break,
Such utter helplessness!
And yet more worthy we may be,
With her to lead us on,
The blessed Christ's own face to see,
In yonder peaceful home.
For she hath joined the company
OF those around the throne,
She sings in tunetul harmony
Before the throne of God.
