letter from Minnesota. and that his
name was Ole Olson. When the post
mistress said there were ten letters
for Ole Olson in her possession, but
there were already several men by

newcomer would have to be identified,
he shufTled out Of the Office, saying
in disgust, "A tank a batter change

Buddy looked at him with evident

Promises of Federal Changes

Three major reforms provided in the pol
icy for the reorganization of the federal govern
ment which is to receive the support of the
Harding administration and the Republican ma
jorites IN the senate and house of the new
congress. To establish the government on a
sound basis, the following reforms are to be car
ried out:
l. A business-like financial system, to be
provided by national budget.
2. Reorganization of all the departments
along systematic, logical plan, to eliminate as
much as possible conflicting activities.
8. An efficient personnel, to be secured
along the lines recommend by the joint con-
gressional committee on Redistribution.
These major reforms bear close relation
ship, each to the other.
Reorganization of the executive branch of
the government is required for the best working
of the proposed budget system. Reorganization
will help Redistribution by establishing work.
ing relations under distinct head, among
groups engaged in related work, which are now
scattered in a confused manner throughout a
maze of services.
1t is stated that considerable Roadway has
already been made on each of these three great
tasks and that the administration expects the
budget system will be provided during the extra
session of congress, and that practically all the
details of the other reforms will be worked out
before the new congress ends it's labors, two
years hence.
That the Harding administration intends to
lose no time in its efforts to provide business
system of government is indicated by the fact
that it was the first topic of discussion at the
first cabinet meeting, last week.

Reforestation in Indiana

Conservation Of The lumber supply of the
United States recently occupied the time of
prominent business men who met in Chicago to
devise methods of replanting denuded timber
tracts and of setting out trees on land that is
not suited for agricultural purposes.
1t may surprise the average Hoosier to know
that Indiana has state forest reserve and that
100000 trees are to be planted in it this spring.
It may also be item of news for the majority of
US that enough seed will be planted in the nur-
sery to raise million more trees.
:. The department of conservation, which is do
ing great service for the people of Indiana in
many particulars, will plant $4,000 white pine
trees alone in the abandoned fields on the re-
serve. 1t will also carry on experiments to find
low ground.
"By planting many thousands of seed in the
tree nursery, the state expects in year so to
advantage of law recently enacted enabling
them to devote some of their lands to forest pro-
duction without great personal sacrifice, says a
recent announcement of the department of con-
servation.
/. We of this generation may not appreciate the
worth of the movement which the conservation
commission has undertaken to encourage the
planting of trees on soil that is barren and on
hillsides that are devoid of vegetation, but the
coming generation will thank the foresight of
the men who are trying to create forests to re-
place those which have vanished before the on.
ward march of the settlers.
Thousands of acres of hardwood trees had to
be sacrificed by the settlers who sought fertile
acres; but TODAY every idle acre of land that is

OF THE DAY
FIRST FOUND DRECO

at was lucky day for me when
decided to take Dreco. for I'm now en-
tirely well: never have gas in stomach,
bowels act daily, and my liver has
been cleaned off," stated Mr. E. M.
Morton of 1903 Main street, Anderson,
Ind.
Undigested food remaining in the
stomach produces poisonous gases
which cause discomfort and various
troubles. After taking Dreco it is
noticed the bowels act well, stomach
is soothed, gastritis relieved, the liver
is worked off and nerves quieted. All
