Replant Southern
Oregon Forests

Reforestation Of the foothills and
mountain slopes Of southern Oregon
Is being pursued by the federal gov
ernment this year on a much larger
area than heretofore. The system
has practically passed the experiment
al stage and is being applied as a
real business proposition.
Work on an S0-acre project on the
Applegate river watershed has been
in progress for three weeks under the
supervision of Martin L. Erickson.
forest supervisor for this district, Is
men being employed. A tract Of IS
acres was planted last year, largely
as an experiment in cultivating yell
low pine. Although the aridity OF
this district initiated somewhat
against the immediate success Of the
project, the trees planted did suffi-
ciently we'll to justify enlarging the
tract and planting under a slightly
revised method.

In looking forward to our en-
trance into the war, many people
have been fearing that 1t would
cause q great business shock and
lead to suffering and unemployment
Such, however, is not the usual story
OF wars. Even with ell the suffering
in Europe. there are no unemployed.
There is something for every will
ing hand TO do. The shock and suf-
fer'ing come years after when people
carry the heavy burdens imposed by
war, and scrimp and save to pay ma
tional debts and heavy taxes.
War in this country has usually
been preceded by stock market fur
ries. In advance the speculartors are
apt to sell short, trusting that peo-
pies fears will lead them to throw
securities overheard at bargain
prices. But the speculative crowd
does not allow prices to slump very
far. They realize that war creates
work and business and tends to make
industrial enterprises profitable for
the time being The final results are
tremendously expensive but the peo-
pie of ten years hence will feel it far
more than today.
So let no timid business man get
scared and think our great country
Is going to rack and ruin. War will
make demand for c thousand kinds
Of supplies, and the factories will
have to get them out in o hurry. The
need for food will be increased and
the farms will have to hustle to fill
the hungry mouths.
War Is a time of artificial stimu-
lus to business, and the first dose is
as exhilarating to trade as some pow
erful drug. The costs Of 1t will be
paid later, but paid gradually. and
there will bo no panic and no in
dustrial disaster. Though onr mill
tary and naval situations may he
wholly inadequate for this crisis, yet
financially we are we'll prepared.

KEEPING DOWN WAR PRICES.

The Commercial Club and school
authorities OF the city are joining in
attacking the local problems which
confront efforts to place all available
vacant lots under cultivation, and the
cooperation of every Ashlander
should be extended In the work. A
nationwide campaign is being made
10 encourage planting of every avail
able foot OF land in crops of some
kind in order to meet the demand for
food which the year is bound to
bring. Cultivation Of some ground,
whether measured in feet or acres, is
a duty which every man, woman and
child owes to his or her country this
year. 1t is the only way to keep down
the prices OF food commodities dur
ing war times Those who have va
cant lots which they themselves are
unable to cultivate should turn them
over to someone who can. The local
Commercial Club will open an eX-
change for listing both vacant lots
and the names of those wishing to
cultivate lots.
