FORESIGHT

If anyone has travelled across
China and seen that denuded coun-
try subject as all denuded countries
are TO terrific floods and droughts.
there is no forgetting the impression
of heedlessness-an eternal monu-
ment to vast populations. which
would think not one thought of
vast populations to come. Today
one of the basic reasons for the
miseries OF four hundred million
who worship their ancestors is that
their ancestors gave no worship to
the future and not even a casual
glance toward posterity.
What a difference it would make
if mankind would give less honor to
the past and confer more on times
and on humanity to come. The
cemetery may be a proper place to
do homage, but how much more eff
fectiye would be homage done at
the registry of births. Indeed, if
we could pull our eyes away from
yesterday a little and shoot our Vi
sion at tomorrow. we would, in the
plain words of a common-sense peo-
pie, be doing something!
The United States is not denuded,
but it is travelling in that direction
Our forests are going, and. by and
large, we do nothing much to re-
place them. Neither much money
nor effort would be expended if ey-
cry soul in the country planted and
cared for two trees a year or con
tributed to have someone else
plant them in reserves of re-
forestration. Before most of us
now living were gone there
would be billions of new ma
turing trees in the United States.
How surprised and happy would
mankind be if some civilization
came along wise enough and CRATE
ful enough to indulge in economies,
to put back some of the vitality of
the soil, to replant where it cut
down, to have feeling for Nature
and help her restore, and otherwise
to act like ancestors fit to be wor-
SHIPPED. Collier Weekly.

DESERVES A FAIR TRIAL

The new state administrative code
has not been in operation long
enough for anyone to form reliable
estimate of how it is going to work
out, therefore the claims and asser-
tons of both its supporters and OPP
ponents should be given little weight.
The writer was not an advocate
of the new code and does not be-
lieye that the supreme court was
justified in sustaining the emergency
clause, which deprived the opponents
of the measure of the right of try
ing to have it referred to vote of
the people. But now that it is the
law of the state it should be given
fair trial and judgment as to its
merits or dement's should be de-
ferred until it has been in opera
tion for at least a year.
There is unquestionably an OPP
portunity to save money by the CON
solidation of duties and responsible
~ in a few officials and most, if
not all, of the men appointed as
heads of departments seem to be
making an earnest effort to cut
down running expenses. For in
stance. report from the department
of Conservation and Development,
of which D. A Scott of Ritzville is
director, shows the expenditures for
the months of April, May and June
TO be S42,99S34 under the funds
available for those three months.
The funds available are 10 per cent
under the total appropriation, Di-
rector Scott having complied with
the suggestion of Governor Hart that
each department set aside Is per
cent of its appropriation to be turned
back into the state treasury.
This is a good start, and if the
saving shown is maintained during
the biennium and is duplicated by
the other departments. the new code
will have proved its worth. AS not
ed before, however, it is too early
TO make any reliable predictions as
TO how the code will work out and
indiscriminate criticism should be

CAN NOT HIDE WEAKNESSES
Philadelphia Writer Draws a Moral
From the Life and Works of
Two Men

There were two men.
One, in order to hide his faults from
the eyes of the public surrounded him
self with many friends, better than
himself in character
The other man had a single friend.
as sterling in character, sympathies
and perceptions as himself.
In the first case the man fooled the
public which seemed to see him
through his friends.
In the second case, however, the
man and his friend were misunder-
stood and neglected by the public
The first man, during life, was
praised and flattered, for, being very
wealthy, he could very easily purchase
empty words, but not loved or re
speCted
The second man, after death. was at
last understood, respected, honored
and loved, but to no avail; for he
could not be brought back from the
grave.
1t was a case of the same old story
of an unjust, blind world.

weaknesses.-Charles Fingerman, in

BULLETIN ISSUED ON
APPLE POLLINATION

The results OF several years work
on the general problem of apple pol
lination by Professor O. NJ. Morris,
head of the division of horticulture
of the Washington state experiment
station, have just been published in
station bulletin No G3. In his in
yestigations Professor Morris has
shown that self-sterility is more
common among varieties of apples
than is self-fertility, and that yarie-
tai differences in pollen exert no di-
rect influence on the size. shape.
color or quality of the fruit pro
duced.
He has also demonstrated that in
sects are the principal cross pollin-
izing agencies in apple orchards, and
that the June drop is intimately as
ISOLATED with the failure of the ap-
pie to produce seed He concludes
that good list of inter-fertile varie-
ties properly planted will form an
orchard that will fruit with the min
imum loss by June drop,
The bulletin is available for gen
eral distribution in Washington and
will be sent free of charge to any
citizen upon application to the di-
rector of the experiment station,

TAKING UNFAIR ADVANTAGE OF
A BAD SITUATION

Some property owners in Pullman
are taking advantage of the present
abnormal demand for rooms and
houses to charge unfair rents. The
fact that the State College has out
grown the town does not justify this
form of profiteering The attend
ance at the college can be limited in
better ways than by driving students
away through demanding exorbitant
prices for rooms.
People who have houses or rooms
to rent are entitled to charge such
prices as will yield fair returns on
the money and trouble invested. They
are not justified in asking unreason-
able rents, simply because there are
not enough lodging places to 50
around
Such attempts at profiteering
will give the city a bad name aud
will injure the future growth of the
college by compelling many would
be students to attend other institu-
tions of learning, where they can Sc
cure accommodations at reasonable
prices. Furthermore, members OF
the legislature may feel inclined to
curtail the appropriations for the col
lege, if they have reason to believe
that students are deprived ii the op-
portunity of securing here the edu-
cation which the state helps pay to
provide, because they can not secure
a place to live at reasonable rates
Any and all attempts 10 hold up
the students, because existing condl-
lions afford an opportunity to 40 it,,
will in the long run result disastrous
". Rents should be fixed on the
basis Of fair returns on the money
invested, not on the basis OF ALI the
traffic will bear" 1t Is bad enough
that Pullman can not offer accom-
modations for all the students anG
families desiring to com here. 1t is
far worse to eXtort unsai" rents, he
cause the supply of rooms and houses
is not equal to the demand. stu
dents who know that they are being
charged more than their rooms are
worth can not be expected to urge
their friends to enroll at the college
nor to keep their rooms any longer
than necessity compels.
The people who excuse themselves
for asking exorbitant rates on the
ground that they do not want to take
roomers, but, as an accommodation
to the college, are renting rooms TO
those who must secure lodgings at
any price are hurting the college
more than they are helping it. They
are deluding themselves with the
idea that they are patriots, when in
reality they are profiteers.
Pullman residents are under moral
obligations to the college and to the
state to treat the students who come
here fairly and to provide rooming
accommodations at reasonable rates.

tinue until December. when it is ex-
pected that the membership roll will
be very much larger than it is to- day.
There are now only 1862 in the associa-
ton. Every one is an expert in build
ing management and has the handling
of millions of dollars worth of build
ings in his charge. There are many
scientific building managers in the city
who are not members OF the associa-
ton. These and real estate folks di-
rectly associated with the care of
buildings are to be invited into the
association.
