Garrett P. Serviss Tells How
Fenimore Cooper FOresaW
u. S. Timber Waste
By Garrett p. Serviss.


<<TToW often" exclaims
Judge Temple in Coop
er's story OF 1.-THE
Pioneers" when on returning to
his homo on Lake Otsego at
Christmas time, he sees a beauti-
full fire Of hard maple logs blaz-
ing on his hearth, ''how often
have forbidden the use Of the
sugar maple In my dwelling! The
sight OF that sap as It exudes
with the heat Is painful to me,
Richard. It behooyes the owner
of woods as extensive as mine to
be cautious what example he sets
his people, who are already fell
ing the forests az IL no end
could be found Of their treasures,
nor any limits to their extent"
That was written In 1922, and
the incident described in the
story was supposed to take place
in 1893. We are now in 1928,
and, although the vast forests
that yelled the face ct the newly
made State Of New York at the
date Of Cooper's story have now
shrunk over most OF it's terri
tory. into pitiful clumps, patches
and thickets, clinging for dear
life to steep hillsides, or half
choked in deep Rulleys and
ravines, the destruction goes on
with relatively as great reckless.
ness as was displayed q hundred
and more years ego.
FORESIGHT OF COOPER.
Fenimore Cooper had a shrewd
foresight Of what was coming,
and IL sentiment could have any
dynamic quality in such q matter.
his fascinating descriptions Of the
that he knew and loved,
and that give to his Leather
stocking tales an atmosphere un-
matched in English literature, 1t
would move all of his readers to
do battle in defense Of what little
forest wealth Is now left to US.
There ought to be formed q
"Fenimore Cooper Forest Assocla-
tion," and I freely offer the sug-
gestion to any organizing genius
who may be disposed to take up
the work. Government depart
rnents and agencies are all right,
and indispensable, In such q case,
but there must be something max"
ing closer and more intimate
appeal to the people themselves.
Turning the Adirondacks into
a vast public park, and intersec-
ting them with automobile high
ways, Is good; but better yet
would be universal movement
Tor re-clothing the land in rela-
lively populous regions with
something resembling the forests
that have vanished. OF course
they could never be made any
thing like as extensive as they
once We're. That would not be
desirable, even II 1t rould be
done. But there are large areas
among the farm lands that have
not proved profitable for cultiva-
ton after being cleared. and

Diagnoses Cancer

K Schridde, anatomist at the
~ Dortmund Medical Research
Institute. announces that the best
way to diagnose cancer IL to ex-
anime the hair OF the people sup.
posed to be afflicted by the disease.
DR.. Schridde declares that the
presence of what he calls cancer
hair proves beyond doubt the
presence of the malady.
He says that long and patient
examination Of thousands Of can
Ger cases proves that part Of the
hair on the face and head OF can
Ger patients assumes a deep black
color, which, unlike the usual
polish Of black hair, is very dull.
He adds that cancer hair is very
stiff, hard and thick, a fact which
is especially noticeable when the
patient is asleep. In the case or
red-haired people this clue to the
presence Of the disease Il absent

these could be recovered with
trees. Many small farms in New
York and New England have been
practically abandoned because
they could not compete resources
Of the West.
The original destruction was
wrought not by satisfying neces-
sary needs but by reckless waste
such as Cooper was moved to re-
buke even at a time when the
abundance was 90 great that his
warnings were laughed at by the
thoughtless-who always consti-
tute the great majority every
where and in all times.
FORESTS KEEP GROWING.
Trees are not like coal; they
grow. The making Of coal is a
process OF nature so slow. and 30
hedged around with restrictive
conditions, that it is impossible
for man to wait for it. He must
be content with the coal former

environments which he cannot
reproduce. When the existing
coal is all burned up, that viii

But the forests are not dead

they are made up of self.repro-
ducing assemblages of living cells

eliminating uses Of less import

cultivation, we could always have
enough forest trees for q reason

constructive purposes.
But even If we can have onlv
enough for shade and ornament.
the end would justify the means.
There are thousands of places
where trees will grow without in
