LIVESTOCK INCREASES
 ON NATIONAL FORESTS

Figures showing the number of live stock for which the secretary of agri- culture has authorized grazing per- mits for the ranges on the 160 nation al forests during the year 1914 have just been made public. Nearly Il mil lion animals can be grazed, including nearly two million head of cattle and horses. nearly nine million head of sheep and goats, and about sixty-five thousand hogs. This means an in- crease for the current year of about thirty-eight thousand more cattle and horses, and 347 thousand more sheep and goats, although the gross area of the national forests at the beginning of 1914 is almost million acres less than at the beginning of 1913.
 During 1913, according to the re- ports just compiled, more than twen- ty-even thousand stockmen paid the government for grazing permits on the national forests.
 For several years past the carrying capacity of the national forest ranges has been slowly rising, which, forest officers say, indicates an improvement in general grazing conditions and a better utilization of the forest re- sources. They claim that this is due mainly to the enforcement of better methods of distributing and handling stock.
 On the lands recently acquired by the federal government within the Ap- palachian region of the east, regu- lated grazing has been undertaken this year on six distinct areas. The local stock owners who had previous ly used the land under lease from the former owners have readily accepted the change of ownership and appear to be favorably impressed with the methods employed by the forest ser vice for grazing purposes. While the number of all animals authorized to grae upon these southern Appalachian forests is not large, it is the belief of the forest officers in charge of them that under careful supervision the lands will support more stock than they have in the past and that there will be considerable improvement in the individual animals, with con- stant increase in meat production.

GOVERNORS CONFERENCE.

The seventh annual conference of governors to be held at Madiso T. Wis, June g. When these annual meetings were started, their enthu- siastic promoters hoped they might at tain the power almost of a third house of congress. The actual results have of course been very much less. \ As it has worked, the governors themst Ives have not always taken the meetings very seriously. Some Of them did not feel like taking lo1g iurneys merely to take part in de- batting forum. And a governor does ndfsaiways look as big at this meet ing as he did in his capitol at home.

LEGISLATION AGAINST TIPPiNG.

The Canadian parliament is pass
 ing a bill imposing fine of $1Vo lor
 giving or receiving a tip, or permit ting an employe to receive one. If
 this law wyks we'll, there will be a
 move to place it on the statute books of our states
 The Canadians are more tractable and phlegmatic, and take more kind
 ly to state regulation than do our people. But or tipping system causes intense irritation, and is 9 heavy tax on saiesmen and others whose busi- ness requires constant travel.
 Aa unenforced law is not merely dead wood, but it tends to make a joke of all law. It will not be the least use to enact statutes against tipping unless the American people really mean to end the practice,
 Landlords have never realized what a. large support there would be tor strictly mo tip" hotels and restau- rants. Few people like the dilemma that tipping places on them. If they do tip, they know they are the victim of a graft, if they dosa't, they feel they have been mean to a workingman. If the expectations of commercial trav- eilers would band themselves togeth- er.sto patronize mo tip" houses, strong basis of support would be given to such establishments.
 A statute might we'll be passed as an experiment. making it illegal to tip on the railroads. The tip to the sleeping car porter Is not usually for additional service performed, it is merely g sratuitys to the company that pays the porter's salary. ---s.. ~4.s .-s=s..f, -.-e } In choosing restaurants, the man who dislikes tipping can at least select less aristocratic places where the custom has little hold. In rail- road travel he has no such choice, bpts is practically forced tosFcontri-. bute supplementary priceNto the, company for his comfort. This is contrary to the theory of a common carriers service, equal rights to,~al1, first come, first served.

The arraignment is a startling one, but when comparison is made with previous years, basis is obtained for hope that progres snow started will continue, and much is being done. It is to be noted that in only two in stances did the colored rate increase. Recently conference was held at the call otfthe Louisiana state board of health to consider betterment of hy- giene among negroes. Five states and the District, of Columbia sent dele gates. Eight of the leading negroes of the South weref present. Progress has beth mode and sincere workers are adding impetus ot the beginning steps.

HELPING THE FARMER.

K The members of no calling are re- ceiving more outside aid today than Ire the farmers. National and state kovernments are spending thoasands annually ia work to enable the agri-, fhltuEists to grow bigger and better sBeps: t,hIess expense--to get more out of his facilities. While this, in measure, may be- q selfish motive on the part of the others whos make up the government, yet it sdetracts not one whit from the opportunity offer et the individual farmer for greater gain. Wide-awake manufacturers, steadily seeking methods of-s increas7' Ms production and reducing expense, giadly kyai1st themselves Of every aid accorded. The farmer should do like wise.
 Under the terms of the Smith Lever act, recently enacted by con gress, the national government will give to each of the states meeting the provisions of the law $10,000 for cooperative agricultural work, mak- ing total of $41,s20,OO0 to be ex- pended during the next nine years on direct agricultural extension York. Thereafter, the federal govern faent is to appropriate $4,5S0,000 an 1ually, and the states, to take their full quota, must appropriate $4,1O0,- O0O annually, making a total annual expenditure of $s.6S0,000.
 The purpose to which the federal funds ere to be applied are defined by the act as follows:
 That cooperative agricultural ex- tension work shall consist of the giy- ing of instructions and practical dem onstrations in agriculture and home economics tc persons saot attending or resident in said colleges in the several communities, and impartins to such persons information on said subjects through field demonstra- tions, publications. and otherwise and this work shall be carried ol iI such manner as may be mutually agreed upon by the secretary o agriculture and the state agriculture college receiving the benefits of this act.
 Arkansas, by reason of its great rural population, is entitled to re- ceive $21,6S0 in 1915 1916, with an additional $l3.980 each year there after until 1922. The total it may re ceive after 1913 is s123.9S0 year With this amount, the farmers 0 this state should be better equipped to gain fortunes from the soil thar those of almost any other. For the, are favored with good soil and eli mate conditions, and if they utilize the opportunities for obtaining knowledge of the best way to culti vate their land, their crops values should increase while work and ex pense decrease.

 Adulterated oranges constitute the latest foodstuffs to come under the pam |of the state dairy and food divislont of the Ohio agricultural commission, The commissioners hold that oranges whose skins have been colored by being placed in warm, moist place after being removed from the tree, are "adulterates within the meaning of the Ohio law" so their sale is prohibited. Dr. Cyril B. Hopkins, professor of, agricultural economy and chemlstry Ill the university of Illinois, says tnat America has reached the period Tn us | history when scientific agriculture IS absolutely necessary to proVlae enough food for the growing popula- l tion. The increase in food supply m the United States, says Dr. Hopkins, falls far short of keeping pace with the increase in population, therefore the principles of scientific farming should be taught in the public schools and in every rural section. #
