Bio Reforestation Campaign Is
Under Way in Western Sec
ton of Nebraska.
FIND RIGHT KIND OF TREE
CompIeted Work Calls for Planting OF
5000, 100000 Pine Trees-Land
No Good for Farms so 1t Was
Made Into National Forest

Lincoln, Neb.-In western Nebraska
Along the Dismal river, one OF the most
stupendous public works ever under
taken in this country Is getting under
way. 1t is the reforestation OF the
sand hills, and the completed work
calls for the planting of 3,OOO,OOo'ooo
pine trees in q section Of the country
where no trees have been known 10
grow. In the next six weeks more
than a million and a half Western
yellow pine and jack pine sprouts VIII
be planted in the reservation, which Is
known as the Nebraska National
forest.
For thirty-five years efforts to grow
trees have been made on these nils oy
the owners of the cattle ranches which
dot that section, and for twenty years
q scientific campaign to make that
country into q great national forest
has been made, but not until this year
has the idea gotten down to real
working basis. At the present time
fifty men and the necessary horses ana
tractors are doing nothing but plant
ing young trees. For the next SIN
weeks they will devote full time TO II.
Then the work must wait until next
year.
One thousand acres this year will be
planted with 100000 young trees. The
Nebraska National forest consists OF
2O5,OOO acres, which were withdrawn
from the public domain in 1902. Ne
braskans laughingly remark the tract
was called forest" because IN all
the 2O5,OOO acres there was not a
single tree of any description.
Trees Would Not Grow.
The sandhills Of western Nebraska
are lust what their name implies. They
are partially covered with a sort OF
grass, especially in the small valleys.
The country cannot be farmed. So the
very roughest portion was segregated
and made into forest"
But trees would not grow when
planted. Thousands and thousands OF

Holds Self to Grand Jury.

New York.-Judge Delaney Of the
Common Pleas court, Paterson, n. j.,
held himself in bail 20 the grand jury
on charge of manslaughter.
The proceeding grew out of an au-
tomobile accident in which Judge De
laney's car struck Henry Cowan, aged
eighty-three. Cowan died in the Bar
net hospital.
81 want to be treated the same as
anybody else" Judge Delaney said in
fixing his own bond. 81 do not want
leniency shown to me because of my
position. 1 want the grand jury to

would in other circumstances"

very sandiest portion Of the sandhllls.
Trees from the Bessey nursery now
are being transplanted out onto the
hills and are making good"
Preparing the Soil.
To eliminate the competition for
moisture by the native vegetation a
deep furrow is plowed, and IN the
bottom of this furrow a specially de-
signed plow makes suitable trench,
in which the young trees are set, and
the sand Is tramped down tightly
about the tree roots. The surface or
the sand becomes very dry, but the
moisture is retained deep down where
the roots of the young trees are
tamped down. The number OF trees
which died is very small compared
with the total number planted out.
The early paintings of the developed
stock have flourished, many of the
trees now being thirty feet or more IN
height. The original heavy stand OF
grass on the ground has given way 20
thick floor of decaying pine needless
which, 1t is expected, will materially
change and improve the character OF
the soil. AS high as so per cent, OF the
trees planted in some years have lived
The average Is between GO per cent
and 70 per cent
The ranchers in the sand hills nave
taken up the idea of reforestation, ano
there is scarcely a cattle ranch within
ffty miles Of the national forest that
has not planted a windbreak or wooo
lot. Each year since 1912, when seed
lings became available, the government
has given free to the ranchers as many
of the acclimated trees as they woulc
agree to plant and care for. AS re
sult the whole character Of the des'
pised sand hills" is gradually under
going a change, and 1t Is expected IL
time that the terrific winds which
heretofore have swept the hills with
out interference will be much tenn
pered.
When the project is completed the
Nebraska National forest will be one
of the very largest bodies OF artihcla
forestation in the world.

Sumner Clues Reason for
Fighting Recognition. (

Political recognition of the Soviet
Government in Russia will be delayed
as long as possible by the agricultural
bloc in Congress. according TO Malcom
Sumner, who spoke yesterday at the
Foreign Policy Association luncheon in
the Hotel Astor. He added:
"Our agricultural bloc, which is tho
most powerful group in Congress. al
though assuming none of the direct re-
sronsibilities ct party government, is
opposed to our facilitating Russia's re-
vival, and our political recognition Of
the Soviet Republic would be the best
way to facilitate it. The sooner Russia
is restored to her former position as the
'granary of Europe" the sooner will the
American farmer lose Europe as the best
customer for his export surplus"
Frank p. Walsh. recently returned
from Russia after investigating the So
Wet laws, said he believed that the great
communistic experiment having failed
in Russia the Government is now, In

New York Herald Bureau
Washington, ID. g., Dec. 16.
Lack OF adequate facilities at Ellis
Island for handling immigrants was the
basis of formal complaint by the British
Ambassador Sir Auckland Geddes. to-
day to this Government. Ambassador
Geddes called upon Secretary of State
Hughes and Secretary of Labor Davis
and presented protests which had been
made TO the British Embassy by British
subjects
Secretaries Hughes and Davis assured
the Ambassador the Administration
would take steps to relieve the conges-
ton at Ellis Island and to improve and
enlarge the personnel there. The ques-
ton yof eniargng the station buildings
will be considered in conference be-
tween the supervising architect Of the
Treasury and Immigration Commission
er Tod at New York.
Mr.. Davis requested Secretary or the
Treasury Mellon to authorize the su-
pervising architect to look into the ques-
tion of extending the facilities at the
island, and also to consider the question
of adding TO the personnel OF agents
and inspectors.
This is the first time the envoy of a
foreign power has made the matter a
dor Geddes stressed the treatment OF
British subjects, but he referred also
TO the annoyance and delay suffered
by practically all immigrants who pass
through the Ellis Island station.
American officials admitted the force
of customs and Immigration agents at
Ellis Island was not sufficient. but de-
clared Congress had imposed limitations
upon these two branches OF the service
by meager appropriations.
Whether additional buildings will be
constructed at the island to overcome
the deplorable crowding now in evidence
Is up to Congress. officials said. 1t Is
probable a request for that purpose will
be made by the Administration as an
emergency matter.
Ellis Island does not need the assist
ance of architects from Washington to
enlarge the immigration buildings and
! to provide for the segregation OF races,
Immigration Commissioner Robert b.
Tod said yesterday in comment on the
plan announced by Secretary or Labor
Davis to have the supervising architect
of the Treasury come here to consult
concerning the proposed alterations.
IF Congress would give us the money
for the repairs we could do them our
selves Mr.. Tod said. IAN appropria-
ton of 100000 was made this year, but
that is far from enough.
Mr.. Tod was cognizant of the altera-
tion plans which Mr.. Davis exhibited to
Sir Auckland Geddes, the British Am
bassador, yesterday when the latter
called to confer regarding conditions at
Ellis Island as they affect British sub
jects.
