GIVEN FOUR YEAR
 PRISON SENTENCE

Louis Pivavoroff, son of the priest of the Russian colony near Glendale, who was found guilty by a jury in the superior court on Monday on a charge of assault with deadly weap- on, yesterday was sentenced to serve from to four to six years in the state penifentiary by Judge Stanford. Dur ing the trial Pivavoroff refused to an swer questions and was cited for con tempt of court and remanded to jail for two days.
 The charge against Pivavoroff arose from several shots he was alleged to have fired with a revolver at the resi- dence of Erwin George Bryan, gan jero, southwest of Glendale, on the night of March 2S. Three bullets passed through the walls of the house, according to the testimony in the case, one of them passing about a foot over the bed in which the young child of MT. Bryan was sleeping.

Beat Huns at Their Own Game.

The most hateful chapter OF the
work Of science In war was the In.
PRODUCTION OF chemical warfare. The
first gas attack, on April 90, 1915, and
the five others that followed within
little more than month, found the
allies unprepared, and 1t was not i'm.
I'll September that they were able In
any way to retaliate. But the imme.
dlate reply was one that did honor to
science. Due to the splendid work OF
the late Colonel Harrison system Of
defense by gas masks was established,
In which the allies were for the greater
part OF the war far ahead OF their adj.
versarles, who only succeeded in com.
Ing up to them by learning and copy.
Ing our methods. II was impossible TO
estimate what would have been the
destruction caused by toxic gases but
for these defensive measures.

DR.. MIDDLETON DOES HIP
BONE DOWEL SPLICE HERE

Last Monday at the local hospital,
assisted by Drs. Macfarlane and Berg
strom, DR.. Geo. w. Middleton, the
well-known surgeon from the L. d. S.
hospital at Salt Lake, performed what
is known as the bone-splint operation
for the cure of lameness in Miss Oral
Harris, which resulted from tract
ured hip sustained several months ago,
which left the girl hopeless cripple
except by the performing Of this OPP
Grafton which is comparatively new to
surgery.
The operation consists Of the re-
moval of piece, Of bone about six
inches long from the shin of the pa
tient. A dowel is made Of this and
driven into a hole bored through the
outer and into the inner section of the
hip bone forming the ball portion OF
the ball and socket joint fastening
them together until they grow strong
again. Without this operation it is
an impossibility to set the bones of
the hip so that a satisfactory union
is formed, and the patient invariably
remains lame.
DIR. Middleton has performed this
operation a number of times in the
north, and apparently the one on Miss
Harris was successful, with every
probability that the patient will re-
cover her wonted strength and sym
metry of movements.

We have the greatest undeveloped and

of this iron is owned by large inter-

lot Of independent properties which
can be picked up at reasonable prices

for persons having little idle CAPT

DEPLETION OF OUR
NATIONAL FORESTS
CONTINUED from first page)


total area in permanently productive
forests, uses but $50 board feet of
lumber per capita each year, and yet
has to import timber, in considerable
part from us. We use more than twice
as much wood in proportion to pop
ulation. We have less than half as
much productive forest in proportion
of area. Europe practices forestry.
We practice forest devastation. How
can we hope to escape the natural re-
suit?
The report shows that out of about
$50 billion acres of virgin forests
we have not more than $50 million
left; that Of more than $50 million
acres Of cut-over land only about $50
million are producing even a little
new timber yrowth; that substitutes
for wood as a rule means higher
prices for less suitable material and
give little help toward solving the
problem of timber supply; that we are
growing but forty billion while cut
ting down hundred billion feet Of
timber each year; and that the forest
area already devastated and produc-
ing nothing, if it had been properly
handled, would now be yielding wood
enough to meet the remaining sixty
billion feet of our yearly require
ments and cut the price in half.
National and state forests can furn-
ish at best but fifth of our supplies
Four fifths Of our remaining timber
is privately owned, and private COM
mercial timberlands furnish 81 per-
cent of our annual timber cut. 1t is
precisely these private forests that
are being devastated. The remedy is
to keep them at work growing trees.
A sawlog takes from sixty to hum
dred years to grow. Therefore the
time to start growing it is not after
our forests are gone, but now. There
is no reason why we cannot start at
once. We have land enough and know
ledge enough to go ahead.
The report suggests National
Commission with authority to make
and supply such regulations as may
be necessary to prevent forest de-
vastation on prifately owned lands.
Such regulations would lock up no
forest resources, but would insure that
young growth will tagc the place of
old. Uniform control, National and
Nation wide would put the lumbermen
of all the states on the same equit-
able basis. Protection against fire
Except in National Forests) would
be left in the hands of the states,
with generous financial assistance
from the Federal Government.
The plan is intended to apply only
to commercial forests and not to
woodlots on farms.
Will it pay the private owner to
keep his cut-over lands productive :?
In general, yes; but that is not the
whole issue. 1t will pay the nation
and the States, for forest devastation
in the end leads straight to national
disaster. Is better protection against
fire all that is needed? No, because
unless numbering is so regulated as
to leave trees growing on logged-off
lands there will be nothing worth
while to protect. Should we resort
to persuasion rather than compul-
sion? That has been tried for the past
twenty years, and has utterly failed.
legislation is the only adequate.
Uniform, Nationwide, compulsory
legislation is the only adequate rem
edy.
