ARIZONA WILL GET
$4,000 FROM FORESTS

Arizona will benefit to the ex-
tent of about $120,000 from the
past fiscal years receipts from
national forests in the state.
This includes, however, over
$50, 900 received from the sale
of timber from state school land
but logged under the regulations
of the forest service. The fig-
ures have just been compiled by
the department of agriculture.
The total receipts from Arizona's
national forests were 1884, 323. "a,
derived almost equally from lum-
Der and forage, with something
over SIS, 0O0in receipts from var
ious special uses and from water
power development. Deducting
the $50, 73O.58 received from
timber sold from school lands
and returning to the state for
the benefit of it's school fund,
the receipts from the federal
forest land amounted to $253,
1886.
Under the law 25 per cent of
this is returned to the state to
be expended in the counties in
which the forests are situated,
for the benefit of schools and
roads. This amounted to $63,
1913. "a. An additional ten per
cent of the receipts is expended
locally by the secretary of agri-
culture for roads and trails for
the convenience of the public.
The contribution of Arizona's
forests to this road fund is S25, :
359.84 making the total sum by
which the state benefits through
federal administration of the
national forests $119, 488. 26.
This is the second largest sum
which any state can show; Mon
taua, which had far the largest
national forest timber sales, is
$40, 900 ahead of Arizona.

lt has become an axiom, with some
dairy men. that the best results are
obtainable only with the best breeds
of animals. But success with such
animals implies also the best manage
ment; and not every beginner is capa-
BILE of the skillful handling necessary
with high-bred cows. The higher we
go in the scale of animal life the
more delicate the animal mechanism
becomes, and the greater the need OF
wisdom in the human agency which
controls it's movements. 1t is a long
time before baby can care for itself
as well as can bronco colt at one
day old. A bronco colt can stand
more simple hardship and abuse than
can a colt of standard high-brsd trOt-
ting mare or a high-clas draft ami
NAL; but the bronco will never have
the great speed, at the trot. Of the
standard bred. nor will 1t grow large
enough to have the power of the
drafter. The scrubby native COW can
stand more hardship and abuse than
q highly-developed dairy cow capable
of doing great work. and the latter
loses her superior commercial value In
unfavorable surroundings and under
unfavorable treatment
It Is found, therefore, that success
In dairying depends as much on the
kind OF care and management be-
slowed on the herd, as upon the
breed. Care and management are, for
this reason. given the first considera-
ton here. These should include
much greater degree of attention to
the comfort Of the animals than is
ordinarily bestowed In fact, It can
be demonstrated that the nearer we
come to applying the Golden Rule
to the treatment Of the dairy herd.
and treating it's members as we would
like to be treated. the larger will be
the satisfaction and rewards of dairy
ing.
These are the touchstones Of sue
cess. When the COW Is comfortable
and contented, she responds with
flow of milk far in excess of that
which she gives when she has been
uncomfortable and irritated.
Everybody knows that In June
weather cows give larger amount Of
milk than in cold and wintry weather.

In nothing have most farmers Sc
sinned against their herds, probably
as in the inadequate shelter pro

A sanitary barn should have from four
to six square feet of window space for

In the stalls much of the time. It Ia
not unreasonable to say that the barn
should be light enough for one to read
in. Good ventilation Is essential; but
1t should be so arranged that the cows
shall not be exposed to draught
while warmth without ventilation Is
conductive to disease. ventilation with
out heat Is q consumer OF feed" The
rage Of temperature in the barn
should be kept between 40 and 60 de-

should be pulled down. lest the well
lighted barn become too warm. They
will also keep out the flies. It is well
to have gunny sacks hung In the door
way, so that, as the COW forces her
way through. the flies will be brushed
on her back
Nowhere on the farm is cleanliness
more desirable than In the dairy barn.
Stalls and calf-pens should be kept
free from filth and moisture. Plenty
of bedding should be used at all times,
and the pens cleaned out frequently

Sir Ernest will be accompanied by
five members of his staff when he goes
to Norway to conduct experiments
with these rations and also test his
tents and motor Sledges. The party
will don polar kit and travel among the
glaciers. While the cold will not be as
intense as in the polar regions. the
country will furnish the same sort Of
sudden blizzardS as are experienced in
the antarctic.
The party will test the effect and po-
tency Of the rations in most detailed
fashion. Such an experiment never
has been made before.
ShackletOn'S new ship, the Endur-
ance, has been almost completely fitted
in Norway. The vessel is eighteen
feet longer than his last ship, Nimrod,
and is Il beautiful specimen of wooden
shipbuilding, 1t probably is the last
of its class that will be constructed.
The whole keel is made Of solid oak
five and a half feet thick, and the
sides are two feet thick. The vessel
belongs to the b%arkentine class and
has the latest triple expansion engines
and will steam at the rate OF ten
knots.
The ship is fitted to consume both
oil and coal. When in the ice oil will
be substituted for coal. which viii
mean economy if it is delayed in the
pack, as the boilers can be kept warm
and full heat generated quickly. When
the oil has been used the tanks will be
filled with water ballast. The Endur-
ance will take on 100 tons of coal
briquettes at the South Shetland is
lands, so it will enter the Weddell sea
with full bunkers.
