FIFTY-YEAR LIMIT
 ON TIMBER SUPPLY

ALBUQUERQUE, Dec. 2O.-That the timber supply of the United States is being cut at approximately three times the rate of annual produc- ton by forest growth, was the text of an address delivered by Colonel William B. Greeney, in charge of the branch of silviculture of the United States forest service. before the south western section of the society of Am erican foresters at their meeting here.
 At this rate of forest destruction, 7" said the speaker, it is only question of time-estimated by some experts at fifty years-until our entire timber supply will have disappeared. Already local timber famines exist in mary parts of the country, and this condi- ton will be more and more accentu- ated until the soaring price of lumber will prohibit its use in many indus tries"
 That there is no necessity for such a famine was claimed by Colonel

 Permits have already been refused on the ground that the applicants are not loyal Before a permit is issued the applicant must furnish two photo graphs, and descriptions of himself and his car. The regulation applies to chaufeurs as strictly as to owners, and the Drivers and Mechanics union has threatened to go on strike if it is enforced.
 Many Sim Feiners and others re- fuse to apply for motor permits. Their cars will be liable to seizure. The police have power to enter any garage and the owner can be sentenced to imprisonment for possessing it.
 The order was provoked by the fact that Sim Fein raiders for arms, and men who had attacked police bar racks, have escaped capture by using fast cars and motorcycles Traders in cars, and taxicab owners say that the regulation will kill their business.

SUGAR SAVING IS EASY +
 ONE KNOWS
BY INDIA ACKER Home Demonstration Agent.

In these days of sugar shortage it is necessary to resort to substitutes, which may be found in molasses. corn syrup, honey and fruits. The Amer ican people, as rule, consider a gen erous amount of sugar necessary, not considering its real value in the diet. An excessive use of sugar is not only economically eXtravagaut but is in- furious to the health, and often robs the appetite of it's desire for other foods. This is particularly true with children.
 Many quite thoughtlessly put sugar on food that does not require it, or that has had it added in the cooking. Cereals could be sweetened with syrup. honey or molasses, or served with dried figs, dates or raisins to add the required sweetng. Sugar might be omitted entirely if the cereal were carefully cooked and salted to taste. In many instances sugar could be saved in cake baking by emitting the frosting. Fruits, both fresh and dried, might be used at the end of d meal instead of rich cakes and pud- dings.
 The holiday season is the time of the year when candies and cakes are made and used in greatest quantities At this particular time the saving of sugar is essential. Cakes may be made by substituting syrup or mo- lasses, and confectiOns may be made of fruits and nuts.
 Stuffed Prunes.
 Select large prunes and lay in cold water for three hours. Then steam until the skins are tender. Slip out the stones. Have mixture of gin ger, cherries, dates, figs; chopped fine with an equal quantity of walnuts. oceans or almonds. Fill the cavity after removing the stone with the mixture. Restore the prunes as near ly as possible to their natural shape and allow to become firm and dry be- fore serving.

Greeley on the ground thatAmerica now has two hundred million acres of cut-over forest land which ought to be producing timber, but is prac- tically idle. He attributed this con dition to destructive methods of log ging and to devastation by fire, two agencies which destroy the young growth of trees needed to make fu- mre forests. This destruction of the forests is constantly increasing" con tinued the speaker. One by one the great forest areas have been destroy ed--iirSt New England. then New York and Pennsylvania, the Lake States. and the Southern pineries, un- iii today inc lumber industry has its center in the Pacific Northwest, and lumber is now being shipped from Puget Sound to Portland, Maine" "
 The remedy advocated by Colonel Greeley consists in state laws requir- ing timber land owners to prevent the devastation of their holdings by fire and destructive logging, the expense of fire protection to be borne jointly by the owners, thu states, and the fed eral government He also urged ac- quisition by states and the federal government of cut-over tinber-lands on large scale. to be protected and developed for timber production.

SILVERS CHOKED
 ACCOUNT OF BAD WEATHER
(From Sundays Dailyl

Since tue Buzzard claim of the Dos Oros group has been revived by J. E. Tomliuson, production given ol d good grade of silver ore has been gratifying, and now ready for hauling into Prescott IS a carload that later will be shipped 10 Hayden. This statement was made yesterday by Mir. IOmlinSon, who also took occaS- ion to mention the fact that neither trucks nor teams can be procured, owing to the bad condition of roads.
 The second car IS now being packed to the Blue Dick and will be ready to deliver to the railroad in this city next week, and later another con signment will be out of the old work ings. Underground conditions of the Buzzard, said the above operator, are surprising, and the productive ability of this early-day property cannot be ascertained unless by personal in vestigation, revealing the interesting situation which must have prevailed in the long ago that only the high grade could have been handled.
 This proposition is most ideal one at present, mainly for the reason that the price of the white metal brings the Buzzard product back to a rating per ounce which it enjoyed during its active career in 1885" said Mir. Tom linson.
 Another silver shut out of the Hay den market for lack of teams to haul is the McMasters in the Crook Can yon country. The operators of this property are Messrs McKenna and Williams, who have 23 tons of 300- ounce ore ready to load by the side of the road, but it cannot be moved under dePlorable conditions in haul iup and bad roads existing.

Terrifying Itching Causes
Continuous Torture.

Do you sometimes feel like you
will scream if you do not get relief
from the tormenting and terrifying
itching and irritating burning that
makes you feel like your very skin
is ablaze?
Possibly your disorder has not
reached the torturing stage as yet,
but there are thousands of victims
of skin diseases that know too well
the almost uncomfortable pain that
comes from eruptions. irritations,
pimples, boils. ulcers. eczema.
psoyasis, carbuncles and the num-
erous other forms of torment that
attack the delicate tissues of the
skin.
The only proper method of treat
ment for any disease, is a remedy
that will reach its source, that will
remove its cause, and not simply
palliate its symptoms. Many forms
of skin ailment come from a colony
of millions upon millions of tiny
disease germs that infest the hood.
Naturally. then. these germs must
be eradicated from the blood be-
fore a cure can be expected.
