SENATE PASSES
 RELIEF MEASURE
ING Ex-SERVlCE MEMS RELIEF BILL.

shington.-Breaking all legisla. Senate passed without dissenting vote the Sweet bill creating veter- ans bureau designed to end the scan dal of inadequate and improper care of disabled soldiers.
 Senators charged with the respon- sibility of piloting the bill through toe Senate have been literally deluged with letters and telegrams urging ex- petition. sent by readers of newspa- pers enlisted in the movement to re- form the chaotic conditions in the soldier relief agency.
 Vigilant pressure still will be nee essary, however. for the bill as passed by the House was amended by the Senate and now will go to a confer ence committee for adjustment of the ' differences. This 'process should not consume more than three or four days.
 The bill as passed by the Senate pro- vides:
 For the creation of a Veterans Blu reau responsiblo directly to the president, consolidating all soldier re- lief agencies.
 For the decentralization of the com pensation and insurance machinery now operated by the War Risk Blu reau.
 For the liberalization of compensa- tion awards so far as to relieve any former soldier suffering from ailments for which his war service was re sponsible.
 The action of the Senate, taken af- ter less than three hours debate, was hastened by the presentation Of a preliminary report by the special committee on soldier relief in which the governments neglect of the dis abled veterans was condemned in seathing language. The report was submitted by Sena- tor Sutherland of West Virginia for the avowed purpose of spurring the Senate to prompt action. Upon the basis of its investigation thus far the committee charged l That the hospitalization arrange. ments have been utterly inadequate. sometimes unsanitary and unwhole some, always laden with red tape and numbering methodicals.

One gooseherry insect we have with us that isn't easy to control is the fruit worm. It doesn't often become serious pest hut occasionally 1t has been known to take a whole crop. The worm eats into the partly grown picking Is still the method used to hold this worm in check. Poultry ought to be turned into the gooseherry patch after the fruit is picked. as the hens will do a lot toward clearing the worms from under the trash Poultry and fruit are a good combination when run right.

has not come about because the for cause of the failure tc use forest growing land. In nutshell, the prob lem is that the United States is cut ting wood out of it's forests three N- four times as fast as 1t is being grown. Much of the land on which timber stands or has been cut off will always he forest land. It is ample to grow all the wood needed for the use of the people of this country and for export trade in lumber and products manu- factured from lumber. If the land can be kept at work growing trees. Tim Der for the future is simply matter of putting idle land to work.
 Every reasonable encouragement should be given to the landowner to grow timber on his own account in the ways best suited to his own pur- poses, but by some means or other the public must see to 1t that forest lands not needed for agriculture do not lie idle. The regulations imposed must he reasonable and equitable. Obvi- ously the owner of the land cannot do 1t all The public must aid him in overcoming the hazard of forest fires and must recognize that the present methods of taxing forests in many regions are equivalent to taxing q farm crop twice week during the growing season.

IMPORTANT NEED
 FOR MORE TREES
Three-Fifths of PrimevaI Forests Have Been Cut Away, Says
 Forester Greeley.
SUPPLY OF WOOD NECESSARY
Despite Fact That Many Substitutes Have Been Devised Demand for Timber Continues to Crow
 Much Land Is Idle.
(Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)

(Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agricultural
 Timber depletion has now reached point in this country where three tifths of the primeval forests are gone and where 61 per cent of the timber that is left is west of the Great Plains, Col. w. B. Greeley, chief forester, for est service of the Department of Agri- culture of the United States, recently told the members of the Chicago As sociation of Commerce.
 Liberal use of American forests was necessary part of the commercial growth of this nation, Colonel Greeley believes, but reforestation should have been practiced, if not from the start, at least in late years. There is an abundant area of forest land in this country to support all industries, and a liberal supply of wood is most nee essary to the people of this country. It was thought that, like the European countries we would use, when our civ ilization was older, but one-third or one-half as much wood per capita as we did in the early days. But this rule does not affect the American peo- pie The older the states and com muntes in this country grow the more timber they seem to require in one form or another.
 Demand Continues to Grow.
 Many substitutes have been devised for wood, and yet the great demand of the country for timber continues to grow. More wood is used in construc- tion today than before the discovery of concrete, and more wood is used in building railway cars than before the steel or part-steel car was developed. This is apparently true in nearly every industry.
 Abundant and widely distributed forests have meant to the United States homes for the masses of the people beyond the standards of any other nation. They have placed news papers and magazines on the average family table. They have contributed largely to social and industrial condi- tions which promote democracy and constructive energy rather than dis content and destructive socinl forces bred by hard and comfortless condi- tions of life.
 The ideness of Sl 100000 acres of forest land, an area increased by s. 100000 to 1000O.o00 acres annually, destructive logging and still more de- structive forest fires are the factors at work to increase the timber shortage. Land Enough if Kept Growing Trees.

Lendon.-Nothing less than national importance will content the Sim Fein leaders. The Irish Bulletin. official organ of the Dali Eireann. makes this declaration from headquarters in Dub. lin
 While nothing is actually known of the nature of the governments pro- posals beyond the general outline of dominion home rule and fiscal auton- ony, the Bulletin contains an out burst against the assumptions of the British press concerning the negotia. tions, which appears to show that the proposals are unsatisfactory so far as southern Ireland is concerned.
 Resentment is expressed at hints in the British newspapers that there would be a revival of the military terror unless the so-called "conces. sions' were accepted. But" declares the official organ of the Republican Parliament, the Irish people will agree to nothing which denies the an. cient unity of Ireland or seeks to i'm. pose upon the natio nalien dominion ol any Kind.
 ms outburst which incidentally re- pudlates any wish to coerce Ulster is taken In certain quarters to be more or an expression of impatience with the patronizing air of some of the London newspapers than an indica. 'ion of a breach in the negotiations It at least confirms the impression generally held here that the path in peace is likely to prove long and diff. f1cult
 According to adviees from Ireland the government proposals includ. a plan to recognize the Irish police on a CIVIL basis. eliminating the military element and disbanding the auxiliar. les This would be an important con. eession to Irish feeling
 Eamonn de Valera, the Republican leader, took up with the members of ms cabinet details of the British nro. posals' preparatory, it is said, to sub ihi'tihg them to the Dail Eireann.
