ENSLEY

The Ens1ey police department, headed by Capt. R. J. Granger, have : done most effective work during the past week towards enforcing the prohibition law. This was proven yesterday when 90 gallons of corn and rye whisky, which had been captured during the period of a week, was poured out. Several eases of violating this law have appeared almost daily in the recorders court, among them being the case of J. R. DeBardeleben, manager of the Palace pharmacy, which Is located at Tuxedo Junction. DeBardeleben was fined SS0 by Judge Henry Saunders in the absence of Judge H. A. Burns. This. raid was made Thursday morn ing by Captain Granger, assisted by Officers Murphree and Tyler, and one pint of red whisky and 46 pints of home brew beer were captured, which, it is stated. had been sold, and it was labeled as medicine, with the name of the Ensley infirmary print cd upon 1t, as well as the name cf Dr. Harris.
 Another liquor raid was made yes- terday afternoon, when after futile search of the likely places. Detec- tives A. M. ,Gallups and w. T. coch- ran, discovered II bottles of corn whisky buried beneath the trough of a pig pen. which was located in the back of the home of Martha Thomas, a negro. at Pratt City. The bottles were of various sizes, quarts, pints and half pints. The Thomas woman was arrested on a charge of violat- ing the prohibition law and lodged in the Ensley jail.

part of private numbering companies
toward the preservation of the nations

the National Lumber Manufacturers
association The Union Lumber Com
pany, the Pacific Lumber Company and
The Mcndocino Lumber Company the
principal private companies owning
the California redwood forests. have
agreed hereafter to conduct their lum-
bcring operations on the principle Of
continuous production and mainten-
ance Of the forests as a whole.
This decision, says statement of
the national association, means that
the redwood forests, made ,to Of the
largest trees eNtant, and the oldest
living things, the seQuoia Of the SEM
Dcrvivens species, Will be maintained
infinitely as an economic factor in the
life Of the nation and as one of the
wonders of America
The method Of preservation OF the
forests, it is understood, includes cut
ting of timber in moro scattered
stands, while every prccautiOn is
taken against ground and high fires,
and reforcStation will follow upon
the steps Of the cutters.
Ample areas cf the forests will be
preserved forever in the same state Of
aged maturity as they have been ever
since the coming Of the white man and
possibly for thousands OF years before.
The state Of California has bought
areas Of these forests for parks, and
the mmbemcn themselves have donat-
ed areas bordering much Travelled
roads.
The redwood region should not be
confused with that of the Sierra re-
quotas, which are not numerous
enough to be Of any great Importance,
it is said. 1t consists OF narrow
strip Of land along the northern coast
OF California and overlapping into
Oregon, which is never more than 25
mile wide. 1t covers about $4,000
acres Of which only about one-third
has been cut over, the remainder be-
ing virgin. The total amount of stand
ing timber is estimated at be-
tween 60,000,0O0, 900 and $4,000 900 00C
feet, Of which 50 per cent is redwood
Many OF these trees arc more than
900 years old; some have been cut
that are authentically known to have
been l.3133 years of age, and some may
be as old as 1000 years. At the pres
ent rate Of cutting, about 100000 ,00(
.cet year, the stand is expected tc
last about 4 century
