he will be confirmed, since congress

event Judge Maiden will be a candi-

The problems coming under fores-
try are growing more important each
day. The proper use Of our woodlands
Of all classes and the reclamation Of
waste lands are fundamental. The
heavy falling off Of lumber produc-
tion in Tennessee should command
the attention Of every citizen. In
1909 Tennessee produced ] ,223 ,OOe, 600
board feet Of lumber; ii 1918 Ten
nessee produced 6o0,OOO,OOO board
feet, just a bit over half that Of 1909.
The production of lurpber in Tennes-
see has had downward trend since
1909. Tennessee now produces much
less timber each year than she CON
sumes. Forest fires are one Of the
greatestl enemies to timber growth
The people Of Tennessee should real
lie thel wide expanse Of damage
caused bnnually BY fires in the
