HOW WOMEN CAN HELP
GET GOOD HIGHWAYS
American Association Urges Milady tO
Preach improvements

According to the bulletin Of the Ameri-
can Highway association the women of
the country can help themselves and aid
at the same time in the campaign for
national efficiency if they will put a
little more energy into their work for
road Improvements. woman cannot
go out with a road drag and smooth up
a dirt road after a rain, but if she talks
enough about the desirability of doing
this she can ge it done.
The American Highway association
does not, Of course, suggest the thought
that constant nagginE is a desirable
thing for any cause, but its knowledge
Of what women have accomplished in
many parts Of the country by concerted
| effort, convinces the organization that
real results of an important nature
have frequently waited for the impetus
Of woman's voice to produce action. This
action has many times taken the form
OF securing the treatment of roadsides
so as to improve their appearance great
| ly. This is a most desirable object at
all times. But today It is more neces-
sary to have the roads reaching market
towns and shipping points maintained
at the highest possible efficiency
II is only in this way that people liv.
ing in cities can get their supplies read
lily and the people living in the country
can receive from the cities the many
things necessary to enable them to obey
the presidents command 10 make the
fields yield their maximum return. The
women should not now urge more trees
and beautiful shrubs along the high
ways, but rather see to 1t that there
are fewer ruts and insecure bridges.
II is a time when the maintenance of
what roads there are is particularly i'm
portant, and the maintenance of the
good things they have has always been
a hobby Of the thrifty American women.

FUR, FEATHERS AND FIGHT.
Story of Battle Between a Hawk and
Jack Rabbit

\ Young professor In South Du-
kota college Witnessed a running fight
between a hawk and jack rabbit
last winter and gives the Youths Com
panion this interesting account Of It:
The jack had Veniured out from the
natural protection of corutield upon
a snow covered prairie. lie was dis.
covered by large hawk. which i'm
mediately sailed to the attack. As
soon as the rabbit saw his enemy aU-
preaching he turned and made for the
shelter of the corutield- The hawk
circled over him and then made II
swoop from the side across the rab-
bits path
For an instant It seemed that the
prize was his. but the rabbit. with his
ears lying back. continued to speed
for the shelter ahead unfit the hawk
was nearly upon him Then he sud
denly stopped IN his tracks, ANA as
the hawk swept by Just IN front of
him he Ieaped high in the air, straight
over the hawk. and striking out with
his powerful hind legs, sent his enemy
tumhlmg IN the SHOW.
The rabbit did It all with only mo
menfary pause that hardly checked
the momentum Of his rush for the
cornfeld Four times the hawk rose
In circles and returned to the attack.
10 be met 10y the same novel method Of
defense Each time tie rabbit stopped
at the critical moment and. lcaplng
over his pnrSuer. struck him with his
strong legs. With final burst Of
speed he gained the oorutcld. where
tie mat Of stalks protected him from
any further mir raids.

uUMBERMEN HAVE A KEEN
COMPETITOR IN RUSSIA

Washington, Feb. 14-(Special Cor
ence)-American lumbermen
have a prospect of keen competition
from Russa, after the close of the
present war. The Russian Minister of
Communications, returned from visit
to the Murman coast, comments on the
vast areas of timber in northern Rus
sin. which stretch for hundreds of
square miles.
The Russian Department of Agricul-
ture plans to afford the widest access
to the exploitation of the timber re-
sources of this section, for both lum-
ber and wood pulp. The extensive
system of rivers and streams in that
sectionaffords opportunity to adopt
the cheapest method of Transporting
timber-by rafting, and there is pro
jected the construction of other more
improved means of communication
which will tend to develop the timber

industry.

industry.
wide latitude will be permitted in
the granting of concessions, and Rus
sian capital is to be enlisted. 1t is an
indispensable condition of the expor-
tation of Russian timber that it be
exported in manufactured form, the
work to be done by Russians. At
conference of timber men over which
the minister presided a plan was
drafted for the early development of
the timber industry and lumber ex-
port.
The day is not far distant when Rus
sia will enter the lists as a competitor
in the lumber trade of the world, and
the daily wage paid a Russian mill
man wouldn't buy an American mill
man plug of tobacco. The American
lumber manufacturers now have Hindu
and Japanese labor to contend with,
operating in the mills of British Column
bia Lumber is on the free list and
never in their history have our lumber
men experienced such depression in
the trade as during the past thrs c
or four although recently war
conditions have somewhat stimulated
it.
American lumbermen are much in
terested il. the Webb bill providing
for combination with respect to export
trade But that alone will not suffice
when peace is established. They must
have such protection on their product
that while they are engaged in building
up foreign trade the American market
will not be in danger of being piled
high with foreign lumber.
In regard to lumber many of the
southern states are heartily in favor
of protection, but their representa-
tives in Congress are still looking at
the matter through the lenses of 1916.
American lumbermen will receive pro-
lection when the Republican party is
in control, and not until then.
