Rebuild the Forests.

DR.. FRANKLIN B. HoUaH, who was
born In Martinsburg, Lewis county,
New York, 100 years ago to-day, was
in the main responsible for the crea-
tion by Congress of forest division
in the Department Of Agriculture.
DR.. HoUGH was appointed the first
chief OF the division in 1876. Until
the action he advocated was taken the
Government had no consistent timber
land policy. The forests were cut and
made into farms without thought Of
the future.
1t took years of unremitting argu-
ment before the. folly of wasting the
nations timber resources was driven
home to the public. There were men
Of vision who saw the necessity Of
conservation from the earliest days
OF national settlement, but nobody
paid attention to them. WILLIAM
PENN was one of the pioneer con-
servationists. He sought to require
of every settler in Pennsylvania that
one acre In every FIVE be left in
timber.
Americans are aware to-day that
they waited too long before adopting
a policy Of conservation; yet they
have not taken adequate means to
remedy matters. The present rate
Of timber consumption is more than
four times the annual growth Of the
forests. II that ratio is not changed
two generations more will see the
end of the nations available tim
ber resources.
Originally the forests of the United
States covered S22.O0O.O00 acres.

Worthy Mission for Mr.. Hughes.

The Government of the United
States is doing well to send as the
head of the special mission to repre-
sent it at the Brazil centennial
exposition its Secretary Of State.
CHARLES e. HUGHES.
The oficial position of the Secre-
tary OF State is not too high for the
performance Of the congratulatory
and complimentary ceremonials that
will fall to the lot of this special
mission.
The personal attainments and rep
utation of Mr.. HUGHES peculiarly
qualify him to express to the Gov
ernment and people Of Brazil the
earnest and cordial good will which
animates the American people and
guides their Government in dealing
with Pan-American affairs.
But this Is not all. Secretary
HuGHEs. oficiauy as the chief Of the
diplomatic department Of the United
States Government and personally
as sensible, intelligent and peace
loving American, has just played an
important part In bringing to the
promise of amicable settlement the
generation old dispute between Chile
and Peru growing out OF the Tacna-
Aricas problem. This dispute has
frequently threatened the peace OF
South Americ0
Although the center and cause
Of the dificulty is on the Pacific
side of the continent war occa-
stoned by It might have involved
nations whose interest is not imme-
diately discernible. The man who
succeeded in removing an irritant so
dangerous In its potentialities has
displayed a truly American spirit,
and his services to all Americans,
wherever they are domiciIed, merit
the recognition they have received.
1t is a great and dignified mission
on which the Secretary of State will
sail in September. and Brazil will see
Secretary of State Of great accom-
plishments in the person of CHARLES
r. HUGHES.

Half that area in forest land is
left. but of that half only 1000. .o0O
acres are in virgin timber. The
rest IL made up Of second growth
timber. partially stocked land and
devastated land.
Within the last two generations
the lumber industry has moved its
center successfully from the East
ern to the Lake States. to the South
and then to the Pacific coast, which
now has nearly one-half of the coun-
try's standing timber. This concen-
tration Of the timber supply Is In
itself bad. It would not be SO II the
concentration had been In the Lake
States, but with the bulk of the popu-
lation east of the Mississippi and
half OF the timber supply on the
Pacific coast there Is great bur-
den in freight costs to be carried.
There are large areas of land In
the East. In the South and In the
Lake States which are better suited
for growing trees than for any other
purpose. These areas should be re-
forested. Secretary Of Agriculture
WALLACE In a report to the Senate
concerning bill for forest expert
ment station in the Lake States
points out that the area III the Lake
States suitable for growing trees and
suitable for little else is equal to
the forest area of France.
Every dollar the Government
wisely spends for forest experiment
stations and reforestation is dol
lar safely invested. Every year that
we neglect to-. make new effort to-
ward the equalization Of the rates
of timber consumption and timber
growth means another drain upon
the resources of the country.
There is no need to set forth tho
prime position which its timber sup
ply occupies in a nations resources.
That is as plain as board fence.
But it should never be forgotten.

The Senate's Bonus Plight.

United States Senators can make
nothing but a spectacle of themselves
continuing to beseech President HAR-
DING to pull them out of the. bonus
hole in which they find themselves.
The President is engaged in the
very big work Of getting the country
out of the coal strike straits into
which it has drifted. The President
is engaged in the very big work Of
keeping the country from drifting
into railroad strike straits that might
become even more desperate than the
coal strike. The Senate leaders
would better be thinking of helping
the President than pestering him day
after day to go out as a life saving
party to rescue them.
All in the world the United States
Senate leaders need to do to get
themselves out of the bonus hole they
are in, and get themselves out with
credit, is to stand up straight as If
they had spinal columns, and step
out. They can founder around Id it,,
IL they insist on such an ignoble
course, until the McCumber bonus
measure dies natural death or they
can galvanize 1t into feeble and pit
liable life with vote of final passage
and send it over to the White House
to be killed by the veto of the Chief
Executive.
But what can the Senate leaders
earn by such a y"Tetched perform
ance except the sentiment of the
bonus hunters for having been played
with by the bonus Senators and the
contempt of the American public
that such statesmanship could put
it up to the President to save the
national Treasury from bald raid
to the tune of FIVE billions Of dollars
to be gouged out of the taxpayers?
What the Senate leaders need to
do, and what they will do II they
have any conception Of how the
American voters regard their bonus
attitude and conduct thus far, is to
let the President alone with his
great national problems, while they
themselves shelve the bonus iniquity
of their own making. VII

on the Moselle, who lived In the fif-
teenth century, suggested devices for

earlier days when real timekeepers suit

In recent essay on the history of
pulse timing Rosenbloom Of Pittsburgh
has called attention anew to the de-
serts OF Sir John F1oyer as the first Of
the moderns to make regular observa-
tions ON the rate of tho pulse, counting
the number of beats in the minute by
the watch. Before this time, though
other points connected with the pulse
had been extensively studied and pulse
doctrines abounded in great numbers,
the record factor had been neglected.
