PRESERVE FOREST LANDS
sFeres. Conservation Concerns Both
City and Farm.

Many dwellers in towns and cities
feel great interest in forestry and
would be glad to give active aid to
the cause. Some are doing so by the
improvement of forest lands which
they own, but there are greater num-
bers who are not able to do this but
who greatly desire to enjoy the forests
and to help along any movement tend
ing to their Improvement. The preser-
walton of forests for natural scenery;
to check the winds and hold back the
waters; to stop erosion of valuable
farm lands; to harbor birds and ami.
mails to produce materials for build.
ing and manufacturing are matters
which concern city people as we'll as
those who dwell on farms.
The obligation to protect the for.
ests rests upon all and the opportunity
to enjoy them should be enjoyed by
all. Cities should own forest parks
in which the design should be to get
away from the conventional and costly
style of landscape gardening now so
common in city parks.
Such parks, If made as natural as
possible, would cost far less to estab-
llsh and maintain than other parks
and would serve many purposes. They
would help to arouse an interest in
forestry and to show its practicability.
They would AFFORD means of recrea-
tion and study experimenting the
courses in school, If the agricultural
experiment stations in the different
states were enabled to cooperate in
the establishment and maintenance Of
such forest parks, the arrangement
would no doubt be mutually helpful,
since the work would be started along
forestry rather than ornamental lines
and its permanency would be reason.
ably sure.
Forest conservation to many people
means the saving of mature trees and
nothing more. Real conservation
takes into account all that Is Of value,
also that which has potential value.
Correct ideas, regarding values Of for

TRUE LOCATION FOUND.
DIVER GOES DOWN 215 FEET IN
SEARCH FOR WAR BOAT; ALL
HOPE FOR CREW LOST.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

western Newspaper Union News Service.
Honolulu, March 29.-After two
days of wasted effort in hooking and
pulling what proved to be an old
anchor instead Of the missing United
States submarine F-4, relief workers
discovered the location of the trapped
vessel outside tho harbor.
The discovery that an error had
been made as to the location of the
F-4 destroyed the last faint hope of
finding any of the submarines crew
of twenty-one men alive. The anchor
that was mistaken for the submerged
vessel by the grapplers was one from
the battleship Oregon. Gray paint
scratched from this anchor helped to
deceive the relief workers into believ-
ing that the hooks had caught on the
submarine.
They are confident that they now
have located the F-4. Portions of the
superstructure have been brought to
the surface.
The dredge California will shift
moorings, tugs will crisscross in all
directions and an attempt will be
made to lift the submarine.
w. c. Parks, civil engineer, has
started construction Of an immense
diving bell, 54-inch cast iron pipe
seven feet in height, fitted with plate
glass.
A diver named Agraaz, clad only In
Jersey suit, slightly reinforced, and
a divers helmet, descended in an he
roic attempt to reach the lower end
of 215 feet of chain. For % minutes
he was going down. In 9k minutes
from the signal he was at the sur
face again, showing no Ill effects OF
the unusual performance, said by
naval officers to be worlds record
for deep sea diving.
Agraaz reported that the chain was
fouIed with an old anchor lost from
the battleship Oregon some time ago.
He had seen no trace of the F-4.
Despair supplanted hope when two
divers discovered that chains from the
dredger California, which had been
fouled with something on the floor OF
the ocean outside Honolulu harbor
since Friday afternoon were not at,
tached to the lost craft.

Brownsville. Tex, March 29.-Grave

The Carranza losses were ten killed

GET TO KNOW YOUR GOODS
Method by Which One Man "Made
Good" May Be Recommended to
All Statesmen.

Inquisitiveness is not generally re-
garded. as an admirable trait. Yet
when inquisitiveness is properly d.
rected, It is one of the most useful
habits of mind. A story illustrating
this point is told by John J. Arnold.
vice-president of the First National
bank of Chicago. In talk to en-
ployees of the members Of the Chi
cago Association Of Commerce he re-
lated the experience of young man
he had known as boy in wholesale
house in Chicago. where the latter
started his career as a helper to a
salesman.
He got hold of certain classes of
goods" Mr. Arnold said. THE names
appealed to him. He set to work and
studied the history Of that particular
fabric. He got the name of the fac
tory. He wrote to the factory in Eng
land and asked for particulars as to
the institution. He studied that in
stitution from one end to the other
and he studied all of the fabrics, all
of the different things that went to
make up that particular piece OF
goods, and in that way he analyzed
every piece Of goods that came into
his hands. He was not satisfied mere
ly to take the goods and hand them
out, but he wanted to know what he
was handing out. The result is. to-
day he is one of the most expert buy
ers in this city. in one of the greatest
wholesale houses. Those are the
things that count. Get down to
study of the inside workings Of the
thing that you are handling"

REALLY NOT A FAIR BET
Young Man Made Wager Which It
Was Almost impossible for
Him to Lose.

There was no sound except the faint
and regular tick of watch. Other
wise silence and gloom pervaded the
elegantly furnished drawing-room.
In one chair sat beautiful girl.
her lips tightly closed. her eyes star
ing straight before her and her every
muscle tense with a powerful effort
of self-control. In another sat. a
young man whose face expressed Sc
riousness but confidence. In his hand
he held an open watch which he OBJ
served closely, only raising his eyes
now and then to glance at the beauti-
full girl, who seemed to be in such
agony.
Five seconds. ten. fifteen. twenty
seconds passed. The position of
neither the young man nor beautiful
girl had changed.
Suddenly her eyes cleaned with a
wild light; she clasped her hands con-
vulsively, and
81 must speak," burst from her
bloodless lips.
"Twenty-four seconds" said the
Young man, as he closed the watch
and put it back into his pocket. You

seconds"
He had bet on a sure thing.

Europe Loses sweet Tooth.

The girls they left behind them,
the British Tommy, his French col
league and his German enemy went
off to the war. suffered good deal
more than has been supposed up to
this time.
The candy export figures from this
country prove it. Europe curtailed the
bean supply of the United States when
Austria's exports were stopped. Now
America has retaliated by reducing
the quantity of candy sent to the old
world.
The first five months of the war
caused a decrease Of s153.s23 in the
value of candy exports from the
United States. as compared with the
same period of the year before. The
value of the total exports of candy
for the calander year was $l.1S5.s94.

EMPLOYMENT BUREAU NAMED.
Governor Carlson Selects Committee
Of Three to Assist Men Out
of Work

Of Work.
y ADenver.-Governor Carlson has an.
>Sointed state committee on unem-
pioyment and relief which, with the
AID OF the state highway commission,
VIII try to furnish labor for distressed
workers. The members of the COM
mfttee are F. ]. Radford, president Of
the Trinidad Chamber of Commerce;
II. J. Alexander of Denver, and Albert
A. Reed, an attorney, of Boulder.
The subject of furnishing work for
unemployed men is one which the
governor has had under consideration
ever since he took office. Several
weeks ago he conferred with num-
ber Of wealthy men about it. Later,
he discussed the subject with w. L..
Mckenzie King. investigator for the
Rockefeller foundation and formerly
of the Canadian labor bureau.
He announced his appointment of
the committee in letter to President
Radford Of the Trinidad chamber.
Radford is to be chairman Of the COM
mittee. In his communication Cover
nor Carlson recites that there is dis
tress through unemployment in all
parts of the country, that the state
Highway Commission has outlined a
comprehensive system of road build
ing and that these highways pass
through or are within convenient dis
tance of the places where unemploy-
ment is congested."
After expressing regret that the
half-mill levy for roads voted by the
people will not be in effect until next
year, he announces that the highway
commission will apportion the i'm
provement fund SO that it can be used
at once for road construction.
The suggestion that donations may
be made to further the road work and
give work to the unemployed is made
in his letter.
He declares that certain citizens and
organizations are interested in the
completion of particular portions Of
scenic highways and he understands
that other citizens and organizations
have indicated an intention to cooper
ate with the state in the same work,
but primarily to provide immediate
employment for distressed workers"
The committee is to confer with all
such individuals or organizations as
to ways and means of providing en-
ployment and administering any re-
lief funds" 1t will seek "to focus
construction upon such places as will
best carry out the purposes of the
donors"
