Boy Scout Camp.

Ceur d'Alene. Scout Execu-
tive P. Frazier, was in the city
| Saturday conferring with Field
Executive A. D. Dayton, and per-
fecting plans for the Boy Scout
summer camp at Wolf Lodge bay.
1t was definitely decided that
the camp would run in four two
week periods, opening July 2, and
closing August II.
Scout Executive Frazier stated
that any boy in this city who
wishes to attend the camp this
summer and has not already put IN
his application had better do so at
once as there are only II places
left. Applications have already
been received from los boys from
Ceur d'Alene, Clarkia, Post Falls,
Harrison, Cataldo, Kellogg,
Wallace, Mace, Burke and Mullan
and placed on file.
Four Scout officers will be in
charge of the camp during the
summer period, including P.
Frazier, scout executive; A. D.
DAYTON, field scout executive; Mark
Egbers, scout instructor, and
Charles Lindsey, athletic and
swimming instructor. The cooking
staff for the camp is also being
arranged for at this time.
Additional construction work on
the camp this year will begin June
II, and will include the building OF
seven new cabins, the construction
of tennis and volley ball courts and
parade grounds ard the laying of
new water system.
"Some people seem to think"
saws Scout Executive Frazier,
..that the boys 60 to the camp and
rough it, and that the camp is
collection of tents. Instead of that
we have camp at Wolf Lodge of
permanent buildings, with good
sanitary systems and lots of fresh
air."

Saving Forest Resources.

Business men, in fact, everybody
in the United States interested in
any way in the use of lumber, says
the Commercial Bulletin of Boston,
have come to realize that some
thing must be done if America is
to remain independent of outside
sources for a great part OF her
future supply of lumber. The
thing needed is a national forest
policy as being put forward by the
American Newspaper Publishers
Association, the American Forestry
Association and the Association of
Wood Using Industries. Up to
the present time the United States
alone among civilized nations, has
been going along on hit-or-mi
plan in regard to the protection of
its forest resources. 1t is now
clearly realized--the war, high
prices, difficulty of securing
supplies at any price-these and
other causes have shown that
action is imperative.
The Smell Bill is the first forward
united step on this great question
of national forest policy and after
all the public is more interested,
or should be, than any class or
business in the country, says "lhe
Banker Farmer" 1t is the public
that paws for forest fire loss OF
about S25, 200, 900 every year. 1t
is the public that pays for the
millions of idle acres that should
be producing forest crops. Will
the public wake up and join the
American Forestry association
fighting for this important econo-
mic measure?-From Big Stick

Reduced dependence upon imports of
cotton from the United States is aimed
at in steps being taken, in Great Brit
ain to establish permanent British or
ganization for the purpose of develop
ing cotton growing within the empire.
This years British budget includes a
provision of $4,000 for the develop
ment. Of empire cotton growing, com
pared with the item of 100000 appear
ing in the last years budget.
The new organization, which is in
corporatsd under royal charter, will be
known as the Empire Cotton Growing
Corporation. One of the first steps to
be taken is the selection of cotton ex-
perts, men of vide experience in tropi-
cal agriculture.
The stimulation of cotton growing
within the empire represents a reach
ing out toward economic independence
in the matter of raw material. Cotton
manufacturing is one of the funda-
mentals of Britains industrial power.
In the twenty years preceding the war
British spindles bad increased by 49,
100000, as compared with an increase
