NEW LIGHT ON the
QUESTION Of FORESTS
Timber Being Used FOaR Times -
Fast - New Timber Is
@ Growing. a

In rssp0nse to- q resolution Of the
United States senate, the forest serv-
Ice has restudied the forest situation
of the country. It was found that
recent high prices Of lumber. news
print, turpentine, and other forest
products have seriously affected many
industries and in various ways have
imposed formidable burdens on the
public. s,.
House building has been checked,
farm development and upkeep ham
pered.' and the cost of furniture, ve-
ricles, tool handles. agricultural im-
plements, and other articles heavily
increased. Lumber prices have risen
out Of proportion to increased costs
OF production. and distribution. The
pulpwood and paper industry is in
straits fr raw material from the for
ests.
Depletion of the timber supplies In
the eastern part Of the United States
has reached q point at which eastern
and even southern markets are being
invaded by west coast lumber. hithcr-
to barred by the high cost Of trans.
portation. The timber Of the coun-
try as whole is being used and de.
stroyed four times ~ fast as new

acres Of land that should be growiny

more is only partially productive, and
fires are steadily causing further de-
terioration. :.
The new study Of the situation
made by the forest service contains
many facts nefer before brought out.
regarding both indipidual industries
and conditions In indifidual states
and regions. II discusses also the
relation between forest depletion and
the lumber prices, depletion and ex-
ports. and concentration in timber
ownership. manufacture, and market
ing. Fresh light is thrown on the
question of timber monopoly.
Finally. a program Is outlined TOR
bringing about a fundamental and
permanent change in the situation.
Timber in large quantities will
always be an economic necessity, and
we must prepare to grow it,. The
measures required for this are out
lined in full in two forest serpice pub

The Thurston County Farm Bu-
reau is one of the busest organiza-
tions In the county. They are hold
ing meetings and planning to Inn
prove the farming conditions Of the
people of the county all the time.
Undr their auspices County Agent
Stookey announces poultry meeting :
Wednesday night the court house
in this city for the discussion of mar
keting poultry products.
It is expected that poultrymen from
al over the county will be in attend
ance at this meeting. for they all are
interested in getting the best market
ing conditions possible.
r. e. Darling, manager Of the Ts-
coma branch of the Washington CO.
operative Poultry and Egg Associa-
tion will explain the marketing plan
of the association. All producers Of
poultry, or those who expect to en-
gage in the production Of poultry
products should hear Mr.. Darling.
1t is interesting to note in connec.
tion with the subject that so per cent
of the eggs produced in Western
Washington are handled by this asso-
citation. Several car loads Of eggs
are marketed each month in New
York city in competition with east
ern eggs. This shows that market
ing of products Of the farm and ranch
has outgrown the old-fashioned plan
Of taking it out in trade" which
used to prevail. Mr.. Stookey tells US
that Winlock, in Lewis county, II fast
coming to be looked upon as the Pet
aiuma of Washington. He further
says that there Is no reason why
Thurston county cannot stand equal
to Winlock. and measure up to the
frst rank az q poultry producer. He
believes that every poultryman should
be interested in making, . name, for
this county as a poultry county. ~

'BOLSHEv|K| PLAN
 WORLD CONQUEST
AND INVADE FRANCE, ENG- LAND AND AMERICA.
WILL SOON CONTROL POLAND
AS Soon as Polish War is Finished Note Will Be Sent To Berlin For Permission For Troops To Cross
 For French Campaign.

Kolono, Poland Soviet Russia intends to seek an allegiance with Germany to make war on France, and if this is successful to undertake a conquest of England and eventually America, officials of the Bolshevik re- gime told the Associated Press here.
 As soon as the Polish war, which is considered purely Russian busi- ness, has been finished note will be sent to Berlin, they said, demanding permission to transport troops across Germany for the French campaign. Upon refusal of this request, which is taken for granted, revolution will be instituted in Germany, the success of which the Bolshevikl say they are prepared to assure by force of arms.
 With these ends in view the Rus sian soldiers, who have been told that all wars shall cease with ultimate vic tory over the Poles, are being subject ed to a vigorous propaganda which declares that Frenchmen will be shot on sight but that the Germans are friends who soon will become con- rades of the Bolsheviki These ad- missions have been corroborated by information gathered by the corre- spondent in conversations with Ger man representatives, of East Prussian newspapers who had interviews with the Boshevik army chiefs at the front. The Bolshevik leaders say that within three weeks they will be in complete control of Poland, including the Polish corridor, which they in- tend to occupy, leaving 10-kllome ter neutral zone about Danzig.
 When the correspondent reached here, surreptitiously crossing the bor- der at Czerwone and employing the aid of Poles and farm wagon filled with straw, he called on the Polish soviet eommissary who recently was established in office by the Bolshevik military.
 Hans ScharEewsky, the commis' sary, Is a Polish Jew with protruding eyes and blond mustaehe, and wears white collar He acknowledged the correspondents greetings and then sat down at his dinner table, com pletely ignoring the American.

RUBY IS JULY BIRTHSTONE
Gem Has Been Associated Through the Centuries With Some Remarkably
 Guaint Superstitions.

The ruby is the birthstone of July. It was associated in ancient times with many queer superstitions. How these old fancieS originated or how they could have been palmed off on the pub lie it is difficult 10 imagine. The fact that the common people had implicit faith in them proves how very much more credulous the world once was than it is today.
 For instance, the ancients believed that if ruby were worn about the neck it conferred the power of seeing In the dark One wonders what monu- mental faker started this absurd con ceit and for what purpose. It was gen orally believed, however, possibly be- cause rubies were costly and the com mon people could not test the matter for themselves.
 The ruby also was supposed to be a talisman against evil spirits, the plague and poison. By the deepening of it's color 1t forewarned its wearer against impending misfortune. If tied upon the forehead in q linen cloth Ii was believed to he a specific for dis case of the eye.-Brooklyn Eagle.

SHIPMENT OF WHEAT
SENT TO DULUTH BY LAKE

(By International News Seryice)
CHICAGO.-A shipment of wheat
by lake from Chicago to Duluth,
Mimi. an almost unprecedented oc-
currence. was recently recorded by
the Chicago board of trade. The
shipment consisted of 100000 BUSH
els of wheat. The fact that the
grain was loaded at five different
elevators in Chicago would indicate
that a certain grade Of wheat, not
available in Duluth, was wanted for
some special purpose.
Movement of new wheat into Chi
cago-which was extremely slow at
ter the arrival of the initial car on
July Is, partly because Of seasonal
conditions and largely because Of
transportation handicaps - has
shown gradual increase during Aug
ust. Entire movement Of the wheat
crop is simplified, so far as protec-
ton against loss through car short
age and various other causes is con-
cerned, by resumption of dealing in
wheat for future delivery. The sta
effect which this has upon
prices has been widely commented
upon by agricultural economists
since pre-war methods were resumed
recently.

NEWS FOR SHEEP MEN

The fifth annual ram sale has just
been closed at Salt Lake City and
over 100000 worth of rams were
purchased by stock men for breed
ing purposes. The prices range, from
$25 to $3.50 for. range rams and
from $3.50 down for registered rams.
There was quite meeting of stock
men, breeders, feeders, shippers,
packers and importers at the sale
and there was considerable discus
sion of current events affecting the
live stock business. It was stated
that American packing houses have
engaged 100000 lambs that are
either on the ocean now being
brought to America or arrangements
are being made for their shipment.
Some Of them have already arrived.
This has greatly disturbed the price
Of lambs in America. It also throws
some gloom over the prospect for
feeders for next winter, and affects
the price that will be paid for hay
for feeding purposes. It Is reported
that Dave Gimmell Of Pocatello has
sold 500 tons Of first and second
crop hay all in fine condition at his
ranch at Tyhee for $500 a ton.
Men at the sale who claim to be
well informed on the conditions in
Australia and Argentine say that in
Australia one sheepherder handles
about 10000 head of sheep on the
range and works for $500 a month.
These are natives who carry q pack
of food and live in the open country.
The American sheep man pays up
wards of 10000 a month for his
herder and supplies him with an ex-
pensive outfit and expensive board.
While the Australian sheep are feed
ing on the open country the Ameri-
can sheep man pays a grazing fee
for privileges in the summer, a pas
ture bill on some farms in the fall
and hay bill in the winter time be-
sides hiring men to haul it out to
them. It is generally conceded that
1t is a pretty tough combination to
go up against when Australia and
Argentine raise their stock for so
little money and have only the ex-
pense of shipping them to be added
to the low first cost of production.
That brings up the question Of en-
acting a tariff law which will stop
the importation Of sheep and thereby
protect the American sheep men and
the American farmer in the produc-
ton of sheep and the things to be
fed the sheep.
A good many of the men at the
Salt Lake ram sale attend the stock?
