NATIONAL FOREST
RECEIPTS EXCEED ALL
PREVIOUS YEARS

Washington, July 25. - Receipts
from National Forests for the fiscal
year 1916 reached the high-water
mark of approximately $2,S20,000, &C
cording to figures just compiled. This
is $341, 900 above the 1915 total, which
in turn exceeded any previous year.
Officials say that the gain was due to
increase demand for all classes Of
forest products.
There was decided growth in the
revenue from all sources, the largest
being that of 100000 in timber sales.
Grazing fees showed gain of $4,000.
Receipts for water power develop
ment were over $4,000 more than for
1915. Sales of turpentine privileges
and charges for special uses were
both considerably in access of the pre-.
vious year.
Officials say that the National For
ests are important factors in the pros
perity of the regions in which they
are located, on account of the large
amounts of timber, range, and other
resources which they hold available
for use as needed Business condi
lions are reflected in the receipts OF
the Forests. Consequently the show
ing for the past year is regarded as
an index of increased business activ
ity throughout the sections where the
| National Forests are found.

SANTA ROSA. Cal, Nov. %. - Jack London, the writer, is dead. Uremic poison was the cause ac- cording to the offical statement of the doctors. He passed away at his Glenn Ellen ranch.
 Jack London was an odd charact- CT of the Pacific Coast. Born in San Francisco, Jan. 12, 1876, prac- tically in the slum section, London was typical hobo, all of his life, although it may be said that in latter years he attempted to con- tract more of the instincts of a refined mind. About 19 years ago London made a trip through Alas ka and this was what melted his "The Call of the Wild" This pub lication made name for him among the writers but with the ex- ception of "The Sea Wolf" his oth- CT writings were not what might be called among the best sellers"
