COMMUNITY ACTION may
INSURE SUPPLY PLY OF WOOD MOO
Special to The Herald.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. L.
Communities threatened with serious
fuel shortage should not wait Until
winter, but should act now to stimu-
late the cutting of wood by farmers,
say officials of the Forest Service,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture.
1t, is believed that farmers in many
sections will cut all the wood needed
for the community if they are guar
anteed a minimum price sufficient to
allow a fair porfit. Such contracts
should be made as early as possible,
so that the wood may be- properly
seasoned.
Because few farmers get out enough
wood to require stove-wood min,
consisting of buzz saw and power
splitter as part Of their equipment, it
is suggested that group of farmers
cooperate in operating such a plant.

Special to The Herald.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. l.
Owners of large estates should not
defer the removal from their grounds
of dead and unsightly trees, because
they believe such Improvements would
not be urgent war work, say officials
of the Forest Service, United States

work can be combined with the pro-
duction of fuel wood and no labor

AMERICAN TROOPS
IN SUNNY FRANCE
JARROLD TELLS OF
CONDITIONS WHERE OUR SOL
DIERS ARE STATIONED

In an interesting article on the Amer
lean troops in France, what they are
doing and how they are performing
their part of the great task, Lawrence
Jarrold the noted French writer,
says, in part:
Something of the miracle, also, is
what our new allies are accomplish
ing. They are doing everything on a
huge scale. | saw aviation camps,
training camps, aviation schools, vast
tracts where barracks were being put
up, rail ways built, telegraphs and
telephones installed by Chinese labor,
negro labor, German prisoners labor,
under the direction of American skill
ed workmen, who are in France by
the thousand. There are Y. NJ G. A
canteens, Red Cross canteens, clubs
for officers and for men, theaters and
cinemas for the army, and a prodigi-
Gus amount of food-all come from
America. The hams alone I saw
strung up in one canteen would aston
ish the boches. American canned
goods, meat, fruit, condensed milk, ETC.,
have arrived in France in stupendous
quantities.
81 can not say either the number of
American troops now in France, or the
number of troops who are expected to
arrive this year, but the former figure
is well up to expectation, and the lat
ter figure is astounding. l made one
objection to American quartermas-
tres: These men have arrived in
France; they can be housed, there is
room for them. How are they to be
fed?' The answer was, Before we
bring the men we bring the where
withal to feed them This, indeed, is
done thoroughly and methodically. No
body of American troops land in
France until what is required for their |
5ustenance several weeks ahead is |
already stored in France. Only the |
smallest necessaries are bought on |
he spot, and troops passing through |
England on their way to France are |
strictly forbidden, both officers and
men, to buy any article of food whatso-
,ver in England"

SHOULD SHOOT ALL
WAR PROF|TEERS
MAN WHO PUT THAT
TOWN "OVER THE TOPS WRITES
INTERESTINGLY

| Juliaetta has given 200 per cent of
The credit for this should go largely
to E. w. Porter, president of the Bank
of Juliaetta, who has worked as few
men have worked to impress upon his
doing their part to win the world war.
In a letter to Mr.. Byrns, county chair
man of the loan committee Mr.. Porter
tells how the money was raised and
gives some interesting facts as to the
methods used. This letter was writ
ten several days ago. Juliaettas quota
was $4,000 land Saturday the town
had subscribed $25,100 and is now re-
ported to have more than twice the
quota allotted to it. Mr.. Porter's sug-
gestion as to what should be done with
the man who gets rich during the war
will meet with many a hearty "Amen"
letter follows:
Dear Mr.. Byrnes: Our sales to the
hour of the third Liberty loan amounts
to $4,000, which is not so bad, con-
sidering that Juliaetta is small place
and that the area of territory served
by it is not to exceed a township of
tillable land.
One of our methods which has been
very effective has been to keep an
up-to-date list of all subscribers and
the amounts subscribed together with
the total opposite the last name on the
list conspicuously on display in the
most conspicuous window, so the
passers-by can at any time refer to
it.
This shows who the loyal investors
are and also calls attention of the
people to those whose names are nota-
BILE on account of their absence and
creates many volunteer workers who
make it point to help induce those
who should invest to do so.
The list published from Moscow is
really a painful one on account Of the |
gingerly way some men have of in
vesting in these bonds, who are at
least believed to be able to subscribe
much more than they have and the /
absence of well-known names who
have apparently not subscribed at all.
With the number of wealthy men
who live in and in the vicinity of Mos
COW, it should have been easy for
hem to have subscribed the whole of
he county quota, many of their sub
;criptions for bonds would seem to be
about what they should contribute to-
wards the Red Cross or the Y. M. G. A.
movement.
If the United States is to "win the
var" its citizens must take more SER
GUS view of this bond question than
