CUT OUT CROOKED STICKS
Use Of Dead Wood for Fuel ls Also
Applied to SeoundreIs and
the War.

Forestry experts in New York, a
state which has given much consery-
ing attention TO its wealth In trees,
urge farmers to help the country meet
the high cost of fuel by making more
use of the dead and dying timber In
their wood lots They are advised to
burn In their stoves and CRATES the
fallen logs still sound enough 10 be
converted into fire wood and TO cut
down and utilize crooked trees Obyi-
ously foredOomed to worthlessness as
timber, no matter how long they may
be allowed 10 stand.
This is good advice, and there is a
human moral In the crooked stick part
Of ii, says an exchange. The same
stress Of war times, which led TO the
appeal issued to New York farmers
I'm Sitting out crooked men. Some ras-
Gals will profit by war conditions, but
in the broad view of the nations af.
fairs the sound and straight will come
to the front. The country can't take
chances with scOundrels. 1t must cut
crooked sticks out of the llfe-and-
death work Of the war, In places Of

There is no state religion In France
but the adherenas Of any church OF
creed can hold their religious belief
and observe their religious practices
Under the law promulgated on Deem,
ber 9, 1905, the church were sepa'
rated from the state the adherents
Of all creeds were authorized to form
associations for public wOrkship, and
the state, the departments and the
the state, the departmets and the
communes, were relieved from pay
ment Of salaries to clergymen. For
clergymen Of fOrty-fve years Of age.
pensions were provided. Buildings
used for public worship were made
over to associations for public wOr-
ship. The ASSOCIATION law of July /,
1901. requires religious communities
to be authorized by the state, and no
monastic association can be authorized
without a special law In each partiCu-
lar case. Before the passing Of that
law there were 910 recognized associ-
ations. and 1853 not recognized. After
the passing Of the law, of the 1853 not
recognized, 305 dissolved themselves,
