cities are losing thousands of dollars
annually because they are not in the
fur business.
That fact was pointed out to he Los
Angeles city council by Mrs. Harriet
Myers, president Of the city humane
animal commission.
She urged that the city require that
every animal killed in the pound-cat,
dog, horse, pig, sheep or great aux
be skinned and the pelt sold through
regular fur dealers.
She estimated that in Los Angeles
alone 5000 dogs skins and 10000 cat
skins would be turened into revenue
each year. The skins are worth from
rs cents to possibly several dollars
each.

AN ELECTRIC MOTOR.

THE OASIS has been informed upon
good authority that the Southern Pa
cific will put upon the road between
Nogales and Tucson, an electric motor
car, making two round trips daily; and
that the new service will be in
augurated right away.
Whether the motor service is sup
Elementary to the steam service now
running, or the motor will replace the
locomotive and train now running,
was not impaired; but the inference is
that it will be an addition to the pre-
sent service.
The motor will probably make one
round trip early in the morning, the
other late in the afternoon; and both
can be timed to make close connec-
ton with main line trains that are not
connected with by the regular pas
senger running, making present con-
nections. This is a guess.

W. H. SMITH OUT OF THE RACE.

In a formal statement issued March 9th, Mr.. w. H. Smith
takes himself out of the race for governor. w. II. Smith is one
of Mississippis best and most useful men and if there were any
doubts about his having concrete and constructive ideas OF
statecraft, his letter explaining his reasons for not running
should remove them.
Mr.. Smith does not hesitate to say that he thinks that those
who have barred their bodies in the stress of war should have
the first consideration, whether they were in the camps here or
Overseas.
4 In speaking of the gubernatOrial candidates., he states that
fthe indications are now that quite a number Of worthy aspl-
rants are available,'' and that there will doubtless be those in
The number who have recently returned from foreign fields or
from the training tramps." Thus far there is but one candidate
who has recently returned from the training Camps"
1 We believe that Mr.. Smith just at this time can render the
state of Mississippi a greater service at the head of the A. q
W. College than he could as Governor. Undoubtedly the wei
Fare of that great institution, over which he presides, had much
10 do with keeping him out of the race and he is to be COM
nended for taking this broad, patriotic view of matters that he
hoes. We are sure his course will be endorsed by his best
friends. of which we claim the honor to be one.

THE HOG ELECTION.

The-City Council, acting in obedience to a Referendum petit
lion, has ordered an election to be held April 9Th, to see wheth-
Pr or not the people of Grenada will stand by the hog ordinance
passed by that body at its January meeting, which requires
That where hogs are kept within an enclosure within the corpO-
late limits that a space of fifty feet square must be had for each
bog. The petitioners ask Tor a pen twelve feet square 0 each
hog, and that each hog penned therein shall have his nose Orn-
3mented with a ring.
The election will show whether or not Grenada appreciates
he record it has earned as being one of the cleanest towns in
Mississippi, and whether or not we want to still be classed as
lie "City Beautiful 1t will show whether or not the town be-
Eeyes it is consistent to impose fines on merchants for a little
Taper and a little trash in front OF their doors while fy-breed-
hg hog pens are allowed to flourish just back OF the store.
j The election will show whether or not the town believes it
onsistent to impose a fine because of surface closets while the
Jog pen stands hard by to send Its maiodorous TUNES out upon
he air, air that is to be drank in by the babies, the women and
Al the grown-ups in the community. The election will show
Ehether or not we want to run the risk OF a siege OF typhoid fe-
Or from which we have been so remarkably free for years, a
isease so disastrous to human life. 1t will show whether

to snae our noses in order to stiffen our purses. 1t will show
whether or not we believe in hy-breeding as well as hog-breed-
ing. The election. will show whether or not Grenada is willing
to step down the line and take its place as a country village or
maintain its record as a little city, as one of the best residence
towns in the state. The election will show whether or not we
would prefer to send the danger signal to the parents of the $50
young ladies at Grenada College rather than to forego 'our
pigs The election will show whether or not we want to ape
the man who bathed his face and hands while water was rarely
allowed to see that part Of his body hidden by his clothing.
Would Grenada appreciate the name of "The Hog TOWN."
1t is believed that many signed the petition presented the
Council. like most of us do those things, TO accommodate those
who carried the petition around, and, unthoughtedly. We do
not believe that there is a man in Grenada who would deliber-l
ately do anything that would hurt his town, and that upon re-
Rection, that there are but few who will not be willing to stand
by the ordinance Of the City Council. That ordinance does not
prohibit hogs.

1t has been said that wise men do some very foolish
things. We see a demonstration Of this in that part Of the
resolutions adopted at the cotton acreage reduction meet which
met in jackson, February p. We refer to the fact that it was
decreed that the delta section should plant not more than go
per cent OF It's cuItIVatable lands in cotton and that the hill sec
ton OF the state should not plant more than % per cent of its
open land IN cotton. We are glad that the gentlemen at the
meet did not represent the delta. Certainly there were but
few men there, otherwise such an amazingly unfair suggestion
would not have been offered.
The effort to reduce the cotton acreage is a commendable
thing and we are heartily in accord with that part of the pur-
pose Of the meeting. We commend the Commissioner of Ag-
.rlculture for calling the meeting and for his efforts in trying to
bring the lesson of the wisdom of less cotton to the attention of
the farmers.

FOREST FIRES

North Dakota, having no forests Of appreciable ex-
tent, is immune from forest fires. But the state does
not escape the loss which is caused by these fires. Every
:isaber tree burned represents an irreparable loss to the
entire country. and a loss for which there is no COM
pensation.
1t was not always so. The amount of splendid
timber which has been destroyed by fire since white men
first settled on this continent runs into appalling figures.
Much OF this destruction was deliberately caused, and
however much it may be regretted that other means OF
accomplishing what was desired. were not available, a
very considerable share of this destruction was necessary
and unavoidable if homes were to be established in the
land.
The early settlers in the timber states found them
selves in a wilderness of wood. In order to feed them
selves they had to have access to the soil, and the first
requisite was the removal Of the timber, Just as the first
requisite in the cultivation of a swamp is the removal of
the water. Wood and water are both excellent and in
locations they become mere Instructions, to, be disposed
Of in the most expeditions way.
The timber with which the settlers were surrounded
%neighbors, for the %neighbors, like themselves, had too
much timber as it was. They could not ship it abroad,
for, except in rare instances, both labor and means of
transportation were lacking. The timber had to be re-.
moved, and there was but one way to dispose Of it-by
fire. Is.
Destruction due to necessity was followed by destruc-
ton due to recAlessness. Long after the time when a
policy of rational conservation became possible. trees
were cut for the sake Of their clear trunks, and an i'm
mense quantity of material which could have been used
probably was wasted. Great tree tops containing
valuable lumber and fuel were left on the ground. to
serve as finder for the starting of nres- which swept mil
lions Of acres.
So it has gone, until we have reached a point where
lumber is a rare commodity, and the exhaustion Of our
supply is clearly in sight. The fire which destroys a tree
today destroys that of which the country has immediate
need, and which cannot be replaced. Complete proven
ton Of fires is impossible, but the country is coming to
a reaHzation Of the Importance Of a thorough-eoine
campaign for forest preservation, and the expansion and
intensihcation Of syStems for the utilization of fall the
fragments and the avoidance Of accumulations of refuse
which are the ommon starting points for fires.
