There are good many reasons why
thrashing from the stack is desirable.
In the first place, stacking is recon-
mended in order to clear the wheat
land for early blowing. 1t is often ar

At takes the same number Of men and

WEATHER BULLETIN
 FOR THE TRAVELER Motorist to Be Supplied With Daily Map Showing
 Condition of Roads
By Associated Pres.

Boston, February "A highway weather bulletin. containing both the prevailing condition of roads and a weeks forecast of probable conditions has been inaugurated by the United States weather bureau as an aid to motorists throughout New England. For several weeks tourists and truck men about to start on long trips have been able to learn what sort of going to expect in the various sections, the depth of snow, the presence of ice, whether roads are passable or detours necessary, whether roughness Is beins worn down or drifts are In the mak- ing. The service has been so sue cessful that. it is understood. it will be extended to other sections of the country on the same broad scale.
 The system of road information con- tained in the New England Highway Weather Bulletin is based on a plan used overseas for the benefit of army motor conveys It is in charge of Louis W. Carroll. who served in France on meteorological duty, which included service of this kind. The idea was tried out in small way in western states, but New England is the first section to be included in general forecast and survey and the result here has been awaited to determine whether other groups of states shall
 
 By use of the statement or road con ditions and forecast a person contem- plating a trip by road to any part or New England may learn what lies ahead A motor truckman with a con tract to move load from Boston to Bangor can learn whether there is much or little snow on the Maine roads, if they are mud-rutted as result of rain or in condition for a quick haul; and if weather changes are likely to motor tourist contemplating a trip of starting off into the unknown, will has. or is likely to. impose burdens on travel. and may posptone the trip or so shape 1t as to avoid sections in which conditions are shown to be un- favorable.
 All main routes of highway trafflc from Maine to Rhode Island are GOV cred in the detailed summary of pre- vailing conditions
 The amount of snow in the several sections is indicated by the map, with varied shadings arranged to show whether the snow blanket is less than three inches deep, between three and six inches. or over six inches deep. In the spring the presence of frost and mud will be indicated; in summer con ditions of rain and road repairs.
 Observers are posted at 200, places throughout New England. from which they send in weekly reports covering conditions of weather and informario, as to roads that are impossible.

INDIANS GAINING
 IN POPULATION
No Longer a Dying Race, But Probably as Numer-
 Ous Now as in 1492
By Associated Press

Washington, February 7.-Desplte popular belief that the civilization forced upon him by the white man means his ultimate extinction, the North American Indian. reviving from long period of decadence, has shown such substantial increase in popula- ton in recent years that he probably is scarcely less numerous today than when Columbus discovered America.
 Startling as this assertion may be to those who have pictured American forests in the discoverer's time as swarming with red men, 1t is freely advanced by experts of the govern ment's Indian bureau, who maintain that the Indian necessarily formed an exceedingly scant population which probably at no period materially ex- ceeded the total of 333,702 Indians re- ported by the bureau for last year.
 The Indian no longer is to be thought of as a dying race" declared Dr. Lawrence W. White, an Indian au- thority of the bureau. Tn support of that statement 1t is necessary, in the first place, to disabuse the public mind of the tradition handed down by discoverers and early colonists that American forests in their day swarmed with the dusky figure of the red man As the Indian neglected agriculture aI- most completely. 1t Is highly improb- able that this country, considering its latitude, could have supported more than several hundred thousand of his race.r
 On the other hand, Dr. White con- finued, the Indian iR the present day after periods of sharp decreases fol- lowing as a natural reaction to sudden contact with the civilization of the white man, is seen to be making sub stantia1 gains in population.
 While many estimates or guesses of the Indian population were made dur ing the past century" said pr. White, ranging from less than 100 900 to 400.- 600. the first reliable census was made by the Indian bureau in 1870, when the population was placed at 31S,712. So figures demonstrate that in the last 50 years the Indian population has made substantial net gain.
 Pointing to statistics which show an excess of births over deaths of 1,522 in 1916 and almost as great an excess in 1917, normal years which were not affected by the epidemic of influenza, Dr. White declared these figures ''fu1- 1y reflected the generosity of gov ernment that has increased it's Indian health appropriation alone from $40.O00 in 1911 to $35o,oOo in 1917, and subse- quent years" They demonstrate, he and other advantages now provided for him. the Indian. be he tribesman or freeman, is mot q dying race, but a flourishing one" Had he been treated other nations have treated savage tribes, Dr. White continued. there prob ably would. not be "vestige of the race within our republic today"

 For defense while travelling through wild sections he carries a hollow cane containing napier.
