IT WILL SERVE AS A JOLT

When you hear republican orator
attack the democratic tariff law on the
stump this year, just remember that
the platform of that organization also
promised tariff reform and repudiated
the same SO soon as the party had slid
into Office upon false pretense. No more
effective way in which to halt the flow
of eloquence on the part of any of these
gentlemen can be found than to ask
them to specify just what reductions
they would say should have been made.
The democratic law was serious, we'll
balanced effort to accomplish an end
that nine out of ten voters have favor
ed for years. The democratic party
really reduced the tariff, and that is
what is bothering the opposition critics.

BEST ALFALFA SEED BELT

1t has been admitted by men long en-
gagged in the growing of alfalfa that
the region in which alfalfa seed can be
successfully grown is exceedingly linn
tied. Too much rain destroys the GER
minating value of the seed. The al
falfa seed belt is central South Da-
kota. and in all the counties
around about Pierre are capable of
growing alfalfa seed that is fit for seed.
Within this belt there is the possibil.
ity of a great industry in alfalfa alone,
an industry that should be developed
by the farmers in this favored section.
Alfalfa seed commands high price
and always will, for the region in which
it can be produced is limited.

PUT UNUSED RANGE IN USE

Denver, July 21.-A concerted effort
is to be made during the coming year
to bring into use all of the remaining
unused ranges in the national forests
under the jurisdiction of the Denver of
fee of the forest service. This an
nouncement is made by local forestry
officials, following the allotment of a
special fund by the Washington office
to carry out the project.
According to forestry officials, the
department has sought to utilize all of
the accessible forage resources as far
as possible consistent with the interests
of timber and water conservation, and
the permanent use of the ranges them
selves. Consequently practically all of
the accessible areas within the national
forests OF Colorado, Wyoming and South
Dakota are now annually allotted to the
live stock industry. What few ranges
remain vacant are unallotted either be-
cause of their inaccessibility and lack of
local demand, or because they are nee
essarily closed owing to the presence of
plants poisonous to stock, or through
lack of requisite water. In order to
overcome these adverse conditions and
to open up all of the accessible grazing
areas, a special fund has been allotted
to the district forester in addition to the
regular annual range improvement al
lotment. This special fund, it is said,
will be expended only on such forests
as have unused ranges that may be made
useful through the construction of ad-
ditional trails, drift fences, and through
water development and like means.

Rsssrvs System Under State Laws.
Special to TimesRepublican-
Des Moines, Jan 14.-1t IL evident
that not all Of tho bankers Of Iowa un"
derstand that It will be impossible to
include the state organized banks OF
the state in the new federal reserve
system being inaugurated.
A statement from headquarters In
Washington 10 to the effect that ap-
plications for membership In the re-
serve system have been received from
state banks In all but three states. and
Iowa Is not one Of the three. Evidently.
then, some banks In Iowa organized
under state law are preparing to go
into the federal reserve system, and 1t
is also evident that banks from a num-
Der Of other states are doing the same
thing, even tho In those states, as in
Iowa, 1t Will not be possible for the
state organized banks to buy stock in
other banks.
Senator Cummins called attention
while here to the fact that Iowa banks
can not take advantage Of the system,
and he said that it mad been asserted
in congress that the laws OF perhaps q
dozen states would stand in the way Of
their banks entering.
It Is understood that some bankers
here believe that despite the long time
policy Of the state in not permitting
one bank to own another or any part Of
another, the state and savings banks
can buy stock in the federal reserve
banks. The question may be tested.
