Restoring the Forests.

Secretary Meredith's vigorous and
circumstantial statement in submitting
TO the Senate the report of the forest
service on timber depletion ought to
prove a healthful stimula to the use
Of such excellent opportunities for re-
forestation as are afforded by the Nas-
sachusetts state forest commission, and
the steady development of these OPP
portunities.
New England, Mr.. Meredith points
out, has but one eighth the timber area
that it had when the colonies were as
tablished, while in the whole country
three .ffths of the original timber has
gone. and meanwhile what remains is
being grown. The east, which former
ly provided the bulk of the timber
which il used, now produces but a
small percentage of it, the middle west
is already importing soft woods from
the Pacific and the south is fast reach
ing a point where it can supply only
itself. Nearly two-thirds of the tim
Der left is west Of the great plains.
The moral is pointed in this para
graph of the secretsry's statement
Timber depletion has not resulted
from the use of our forests, but from
their devastation. There are 100000,
900 acres of forest land of all classes
in the United States, including buruei,
culled and cut over. OF this amount
81, OO0,O 900 acres is an unproducti'e
waste. Upon enormous additional
areas the growth is so small in amO 1t
or of such inferior character that Is
economic value is negligible. These
'orcst lands will produce the timber
required by the country if they are
kept at work full time growing trees.
But unless timber growth takes the
place of devastation from forests fires
and destructive methods of cutting, orI
consumption OF lumber must drop TO
the level of European countries where
wood is an imported luxury"
Harvard uniyersity's model forest ot
1000 acres in Petersham, which after
l3 years shows a stand OF l.000,OO0
more feet Of marketable timber than
when the enterprise was started, is
one Of the far too rare examples of
what is being doing in the right CiTec-
ton. Another notable example is the
project Of the northern New York de
velopment league, which under the in

NATIONAL OFFICERS IF LEGION VISITING
 ARIZONA HOSPITALS

Flushed with the success that at tended their efforts, aided by Governor Campbell and the people of Tucson, in eNpediting the construction of the hospital there for former service men, E. J. Winslett, national vice commander of the American Le- zion and Herbert H. Uplegraff, as- sistant director of the American Le- zion news service, arrived in town yesterday morning. Though their work is finished at Tucson, at the request of Department Commander Clingan they are visiting the various hospitals here where service men are residing. They will also go to Prescott But they make it clear that the visit is in no sense an official one. They were shown about the institutions of Phoe- nix by Leon s. Jacobs of the legion hospital organization committee and by Commander Blumentha1 of the local post.
 MT. Updegraff said yesterday that the hospital at Tucson was the out growth of an effort by Dr. H. Dc M Ar than, formerly connected with the pub lie health service and himself a sui ferer from a pulmonary disease which brought him to Tucson. Seeing the number of former service men who had come there, he began in small way to work for their relief but he quickly discovered that on account of their rapidly increasing number the work
 must be carried on on a larger scope.
 He went to Washington, where he met Governor Campbell and Director Jones of the war risk bureau, and oo- tained their promises of assistance in carrying out his relief plan. On the showing that there were 450 unhos- pitalized service men there and that fsS others were living in condemned

army tents, the need of expedition was urgent. The governor had placed at the disposal of the government for this purpose the aid of the state highway department and any other aid that could be furnished.
 Under the direction oi National Commander Galbraith or tho Ameri- can Legion, Messrs. 9SIns1ett and Up degraff arrived in Tucson only a week ago. A site for the government hos pital had been selected in Pastime Park. It was estimated that it would take about three months to prepare the hospital for occupancy. At sue cessive meetings which were held this time was cut down to one month, then to three weeks and then to ten days But the lowest estimate was beaten. Through the efforts of the whole com munity, comfortable quarters for the invalid service men were prepared in one week.
 All over the country said MT Upde- graff, there is a movement for wider and more general relief for former ser vice men. One plan has taken the form of legislation in the Wasson bill for the coordination of the public health service, the bureau of war risk insur- ! o'iASS e1l4o tAe Sld1 NoCdlloAdl SuuCd-
 ton bureau under one department with
 a cabinet officer at the head of it. The main object of this plan is to prevent the passing of the buck, ' which has so marked the operations O. 1 these various bodies to the detriment and loss of service men, and the mum | Der of those in need of all the aid the government can supply is so appalling
 that it is almost certain that the plan
 will be adopted. It is estimated that
 the number of invalid service men is
 not less tban 100000; that there are 56.000 suffering from pulmonary dis eases and that 10000 are afflicted with mental ailments

WHOLESALE HOUSE
TO OPEN HERE SOON

Backed by the heaviest Idaho fl
nancial interests the organization Of
the Pocatello Wholesale company
which has recently been added to, the
already large number Of Pocatello's
wholesale houses, was formally COM
pleted last week by the election of J.
Robb Brady as president, Frank
Sunderland, one of Montpelier's
leading merchants as vice president,
Sam Oliver as secretary, Richard
Leach as treasurer, G. A. Mariani as
managing director and by addition to
the board of directors of S. e. Brady
and e. c. White.
The Pocatello Wholesale company
has already opened its offices and
ware houses in the heart of the
wholesale district ON South First ave-
nue. in Pocatello. 1t is understood
that large number of exclusive
contracts have already been entered
into to handle grocery specialties, CT
gars, tobaccos, candies, fountain
supplies, bakers supplies and new ex-
elusive lines of merchandise under
the copywrited brand to be known as
Chief Powhoco. Many items have az
ready been contracted for under the
company's exclusive labels and copy
rights.
Five statesmen will be Immediately
employed to cover the company's ter
ritory.
Speaking recently of the plans of
the company, j. RObb Brady, newly
elected president said: I'VE intend to
build up our company to one of the
biggest wholesale houses in the state.
We intend to do this, not by tearing
down our competitors, but by build
ing up our own bpsines along con-
structive lines. We intend to keep
Idaho business in Idaho. There are
millions of dollars of Idaho money
going out of the state every year.
The business of the company which
has been organized up to the present
time by Mr.. Mariani, who will be the
new managing director has been con-
Quoted along these lines. The growth
of the new company will mean the
further growth of Pocatello as the
leading wholesale center of the in
termountain country.
G. A. Mariani, managing director
OF the company will be in Montpe-
lier within the next few days to look
after the opening of the company's
house here.
