THIS SOCIETY GIRL SPURNs
LUXURY To HELP HUBBY
RUN A FARM IN WILDS

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July IL
Fifteen months ago Mrs Ernest Rich
ter "a bride Of II, renounced her sta
ton as society favorite at Tacomail,
Wash, to begin life of arduous pi-
oneering in the Alaskan wilds with
her "Sourdough" husband.
Today-the only white woman in
the vicinity of Dyes-she is superin-
tending the fox ranch they establish
ed during their unique honeymoon.
In addition to their determination
to win independence from the soil, the
Richiters-he 81 and she 17-had prac
tically nothing but couple of axes
and spades when they were set
ashore at Dyea.
Once Roaring City OF
$4,000 Is Now Deserted.
A roaring city Of 10000 gold-mad
souls in the Klondyke days, this
Southeastern Alaska mining town had
been deserted practically over night
when the White Pass took the place of
the terrible Chilkoot as a route to
fortune or failure. 1t was a silent
camp of uninhabited houses when the
Richters fired their bridal hearth.
Singing out comfortable cabin for
their home, Mrs. Richter, erstwhile
coddled society belle, donned a suit OF
her husbands clothes and helped him
chop down houses, or burn them when
the wind was right.
Traps Pair of Foxes To
Start Fur-Bearing Ranch.
They had heard marvellous stories
about men becoming millionaires on
Prince Edward Island as fox breeders.
Richter trapped pair of sleek black
animals. He and his wife inclosed
several acres of their homestead as a
runway.
Other trappers, Indians, brought in
more "blacks" and "silvers" on go
so" share basis.
Today the living fur on that little
Richter fox ranch could be converted
into $4,000 at least, since black or
silver breeders are sought at from
$4,000 to $4,000 pair and the pelts
are highly priced market staples.
Mrs. Richter now hardy woman
| in place of the delicate girl who came
north a year ago, helps her husband
catch founder in the Dyea river for
fox food and gathers the wild sweet
pea fodder which makes the fur sleek
| and high-priced

Middle Ages San Marino gave asylum
TO the heads Of great families who were
engaged in quarrels and even became
the arbiter OF these Misunderstanding.
AT one time the inhabitants saw the
sepulcher OF Marinus violated and the
mortal remains OF the hermit carried
TO Pavia. This city was retaken by
Pepin, whose first care was to restore
the remains OF the saint to the people
of Mount Titanus. Up to the ninth
century the people of San Marino
appear to have held amicable rela-
tions with the Popes. but clash came
when bishop named Deltone demand
ed the monastery Of San Marino and
revenues as his right. After a series
OF Church councils San Marino won
out even with the Pope and the State
and Church OF the Republic became
separate bodies.

ing forward very peculiar variety Of
tree planting, one that was planned by
the military branches of the govern
ment and executed by the Forest Serv-
ice. The military experts decided that
1t would be to the advantage OF the
coast defenses of the nation II they
were screened ffom the rear by forests.
Under these conditions. IL they were
attacked from the land side, the artil-
lery of the enemy would be unable
to see them, TO get the range and do
the damage that it might If the view
was open. So the forest experts have
been setting out these fringes Of trees
with a new purpose in mind-that of
national defense.
One of the great advantages In for
ests that are artifcially induced is the
fact that the trees that are to go to
make them up may be carefully Sc
lected and that they may therefore be
composed Of the very best lumber pro-
ducing varieties. There is vast diff
ference between the value of the yield

OF average value. and a growth of
specially selected kinds.

bles with the Church at Rome

they always managed to keep their
country intact. Even Napoleon re-
.spected their independence when he
said In faith. we must preserve San
Marino as a sample of a Republic"
Thus a freak of the conqueror saved
the little country.
The strict neutrality observed by
San Marino during the successive
changes of the map OF Europe until
1918 went far toward securing for It
the benefits of peace and liberty. In
1917 a brief OF Pope Plus VII. con-
firmed anew the independence OF the
Republic. In 1S4s a demand was made
by Austria that Garibaldi be delivered
to them after he had taken refuge at
San Marino. The request was refused
but II was agreed that Garibaldi be
allowed to take refuge in America and
that after his companions had been
disarmed that they be allowed to go
their ways unmolested - and San
Marino was again left undisturbed.

decreed the abolition Of capital punish

upon their missions They waited a
year. two years. There we're few trees
as a result Of their work.
II was thought that the failure OF
the broadcasting method was due to
the failure of the seed to actually get
into the earth. The second stage OF
the experiment saw the foresters go
ing forth with corn planters and sink
ing the seed deep into the ground A
further development OF the same plan
was that of the seed-spot method IN
which the men dug up with grubbing
hoes a spot every few feet and placed
seed in 1t. These methods usually re-
suited in plants developing but
drouth and cold and rodents, par
ticularly the latter. prevented the baby
trees from living. This second method
was also pronounced a failure except
In certain localities.
In the meantime the foresters had
been experimenting with tree seed
sown in nurseries. In rich. cultivated
beds these seeds had sprung up as
thick as wheat in a productive field.
In these beds they had been allowed
to grow for a year. at the end OF which
time they had been replanted, being
set out In the open at distances of
some six inches apart Here they
grew until they were two or three
years old and lusty plants that might
resist rodents and other hardships OF
the mountain Sides When the proper
season came the tree planters took
them on their backs. struck out for the
region to be planted and carefully set
them out. So handled the young trees
could be depended upon to grow IDEAL
ly and create a new forest OF the fu-
ture that would be all that could be
desired. This method is now quite
generally followed.

Since It has funds for the planting
OF but 10000 acres year the Forest
Service has endeavored to so choos,
those areas that they would do th'
most good. There are watersheds fol
