INCREASING VALUE
 IF NATIONAL FORESTS

The resources of the National Forests are shown to Se steadily in- creasing in value and use. They re- turned s340.000 more to the treasury this year than last; more timber is being sold and nearly three fourths of a million head of stock has been added to the carrying capacity of the forest ranges. A very large increase has taken place in their use for summer homes and other recreatiOnal purposes
 The secretary sounds strong warning against the proposition to turn the National Forests over to the states. or to disintegrate them by the passage of general land grant laws such as the one attempted by the last session Of congress, and wisely vetoed by the president. He points out that the government has found 1t necessary to rc-purchase essentially similar lands
 in the eastern mountains to prevent the destruction of their watershed val De by private exploitation. and argues that to part title with the western forests would be to repeat the same mistake.
 The report shows that 2.000,000 acres of public lands. partly forest land, have been successfully cleaned of prairie dogs at cost of sc per acre. but that 22.000,000 acres are still infested. to the serious detriment of their value for grazing purposes. Nearly 25000 wolves and coyotes have been destroyed by the department within the year, and q continuance of the work is strongly recommended. The annual loss of live stock caused By predatory animals is estimated at s12.000000.
 The immediate adoption of q clear cut National Park policy is urged. The tendency toward wholesale establish ment of National Parks is condemned as useless and confusing All areas embracing outstanding scenic features and natural wonders. such as the Grand Canyon, the Yosemite and the Yellowstone. should be made parks. and all other areas i. C., areas chiefly valu- able for the development and use of their timber range. and other mater ial resources, should be left as Ma tional Forests. The transfer of the National Park service from the de- partment of the interior to the depart, ment of agriculture is suggested for consideration. and the necessity of the closest correlation and cooperation be- tween the park service and the forest service is clearly explained.
 The passage of the Federal Aid Road Act is characterized as "one of the most important and far reaching steps in National Forest development which has been taken for long time"

 The owners of mines producing or capable of producing the complex ores have been troubled by the necessity of employing more or less extended ore dressing processes required to make products that will be accepted by the lead, zinc and copper smelters ana, at the same time, to cover freight, ard penalties and leave d profit.
 In order to assure himself of q large and permanent supply Of high grade zinc ore or product. the zinc shelter steps in at this point and proposes 10 cooperate with the mine owner and 10 help the latter to solve his problem. The zinc smeiter pro- poses to establish numerous small concentrating smelters wherein the newly discovered processes will be put into commercial operation. These plants will be so located that the freight and transportation costs from ,ue UllneS 10 l1e nearest Smelter VIII he reduced to minimum. The zinc smGter seeks the cooperation of the miner by encouraging the latter to provide his properties with "short mills The "short mil"' is one that aims to do only rough concentration. to produce q clean. high grade lead concentrate and a "slush middling' product that will contain some lead and. as nearly as is practicable. all of the zinc and copper. Such a mill would entail cost for construction between n quarter and half of that of the long process mill ordinarily necessary. The cost of operation of the short milIe would probably be less than one half that of the long process mill per ton of ore treated and the net recovery would be great- ly in favor Of the "short mill" The zinc shelter proposes to take the rough "slush middlings" at the local plants. pay for the metals contained end there to produce high grade pro- duets that can stand the cost of ship ment to the large centrally located plants

To Lydia E. Pinkham Medi-
cine Co.

Women who are well often ask care
the letters which the Lydia E. Pinkham
Medicine Co. are continually publishing,
genuine?" Are they truthful? ,"
"Why do women write such letters?"
In answer we say that never have we
published a fictitious letter or name.
Never, knowingly, have we published
an untruthful letter, or one without the
full and written consent of the woman
who wrote it.
The reason that thousands of women
from all parts of the country write such
grateful letters to the Lydia E. Pink
ham Medicine Co. is that Lydia E. Pink
ham, Vegetable Compound has brought
health and happiness into their lives,
once burdened with pain and suffering.
1t has relieved women from some of
the worst forms Of female ills, from dis
placements, inflammation, liberation,
irregularities, nervousness, weakness,
stomach troubles and from the blues.
It is impossible for any woman who
is well and who &SSISN

to discuss what stand they would
take before the war ended. We

prevent the Jews from getting their
rights.

from the power to relieve suffering

Mr.. Straus explained further that
he was enthusiastically in favor Of
unity among the Jews of the United
States, and of doing away with fac
tional differences, but he said he
thought the date of the Congress
ought to be one that all parties could
discuss on equal terms. He was
willing that congress be held, but
he thought all those invited to it
should have the opportunity to dis
cuss plans on equal terms
There was sharp interruption
after Justice Brandeis had finished
his reply to Mr.. Straus, when Judge
Mayer Sulzberger of Philadelphia
rose and asserted that he had not
come to the meeting to listen to
fancy speeches.
Give millions of our brethren are
bleeding to death, and here we are
talking about organizations and pro-
cedure,' he said, as he left the room.
Justice Brandeis insisted again
that the Executive Committee of the
Jewish Congress organization could
not go beyond the powers that had
been given to it, and that discussions
intended to change the program
could be only academic" Several
