SMALL NEWSPAPERS
 DRIVEN FROM FIELD

In an article on Newspaper Nor tality," the Boston News Bureau in a current issue says:
 "The narrow margin of profit which exists in the newspaper busi- ness between publishing cost and sell ing price has been wiped out in very large number of cases by the steady upward march of contract prices for newsprint. Many publications are now retailing on the streets for very nearly the cost of the blank paper on which they are printed.
 Naturally this rising tide has caught and drowned many publishers who were not strong enough either to climb above it by raising their prices or to keep themselves afoat on the earnings of more profitable years in the past.
 "The magnitude of this flood and the numbers of it's victims is indicated by the decline in registrations of sec ond-class publications with the post office department. Decrease from previous fiscal year 1919, 1,15S; 1918, 1,1s3.
 "These, of course, are net figures; they do not measure the numbers of publications which went out of busi- ness without offsetting it with the new publications registering for the first time.
 "The full measure of discontinua- tion of established publications is contained in the figures of N. w. Aver & Sons, of Philadelphia. Their compilations show the following sus- pensions net listing and net losses for the three years:
 Publications suspended-1919, H. 6S9; 1918, 1854; 1917, 1859. New publications listed-1919, 1,043; 1918, ITS; 1917, 1,043. Net loss-1919, GAG; 1918, 1,17S; 1917, 616.
 "Only a few of the largest metro politan dailies have their own print mills; only the largest publications relatively few in number-contract direct with producing companies for their supplies at the published con tract prices. The greatest number of publications get their newsprint through jobbers and middlemen, and some of them do not even have con- tracts. These are the consumers whose need drives them to pay the spot cash prices for newsprint- sometimes as high as IF and IS cents pound. A few years ago news print sold under three cents a pound.
 'The passing of the country news paper will mean the loss of unique American moulder of public opinion, aS well ac the locc of ono If tho things which helps to keep the worker on the soil. When country newspa- pers go out of business the exodus from the farm, it is feared, will reach even larger proportions"

STRENUOUS EFFORTS TO
 PREVENT FOREST FIRES

A national conference of state for esters, deans of schools of forestry, lumbermen, wood and paper manufac- turers, and other interested parties was recently called in Albany, N. r., by the New York Conservation com missison in cooperation with the Massachusetts Forestry association, to consider the U. S. forest service program for forest fire prevention. The deliberations of the conference resulted in the following decisions:
 1--Since forest fires consume over $20 100000 worth of standing timber annually in this country, it is a duty of the federal government to take an active part in preventing this waste.
 2-To accomplish this purpose an appropriation of not less than $1 ,O0O,- 900 should be made by congress to be used in cooperation with the states in preventing forest fires, the allotment to each state not to exceed the amount appropriated by the state itself for this purpose.
 3-Supplementary state legislation should be passed which will enable each state to actively cooperate with the federal government in this work.
 That a national forest fire pre- vention committee shall be formed to consist of five or more members from each state, representing the forestry profession, numbering, wood-using and farming industries and organizations of commercial interests, women's clubs

fortunes spent on engraved cards and good wishes expensively expressed. Oh, well, we can but be grateful that we have husked all this off, and have at last arrived at the real kernel of Christmas or any other season, service and doing for others.
 The first community trees were not the lovely, well-planned ones we all have nowadays on our public squares; they were mostly decorated in whatever there was left in broken ornaments and worn-out popcorn af- ter other trees were decorated, and the gifts were mostly the cast-off ones of the opulent. But the Society for Prevention of Useless Giving, which was organized in New York, and the Goodfellows, for which Chicago claims the honor, did much to impress upon people the fact that doing deeds of kindness for others brought the big gest returns in happiness to ones self. The result is that we all have the pleasure every year of having our own community tree, where the rich do for and mingle with the poor, and go home with happy hearts and tear dimmed eyes for having had an inti- mate, bustling hour of intercourse with their fellow man. Many crusty bachelors who would be experiencing bangs of loneliness at this season can slip in unnoticed and do their bit to make some tot happier. The get-to- gether spirit is the thing, and nowhere is it more happily demonstrated than in the democratic manner of celebrat- ing the towns Christmas.
 Many cities have planted tree which will be called the community tree and will have more meaning than a new one chopped down and erected each year. San Francisco does not stop at one tree, but has had as many as seven in Golden Gate park, with the accompaniment of American, l Chinese and Japanese bands, the whole making a remarkable melting-pot pie ture. Choruses and carolers are part
The Coconino sun., 1920-12-17

and similar associations. The pur- pose of this committee is to inform the public concerning the need of a national forest fire prevention policy and to secure federal and state legis- lation to that end.
 An executive committee was chos. en, composed of the following: Chr George D. Pratt, conservation com missioner, Albany, N. Y.; Sec. Harris A. Reynolds, Sec. Mass. Forestry as- sociation, Boston; Colonel Henry S. Graves, former U. s. forester, Wash ington, D. C.; William T. Cox, state forester, St. Paul, Minnesota; J. E. Rhodes, Sec. and manager, Southern Pine association, New Orleans, La.
 The committee is being rapidly formed with membership already from thirty-one states including the leading timber producing states of California Louisiana, Minnesota, Montana, all the New England states, New Ycrk, Ore gon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Wash ington and Wisconsin.
 It requires nearly 100 years to grow timber of commercial sizes, and the trees are not yet planted which will be needed to furnish the American people with wood when the present dwindling timber supply is exhausted Reforestation by planting must soon be begun on large scale if we are to avoid serious timber famine in this country. There are over 80,000, ,00O acres of cut-over, burned over land in this country which is now lying idle, This enormous area is equivalent in size to New England, New York and New Jersey combined. It is potential forest land that must be put to work
