Turner Calls Attention To Source Of
 Revenue For FarmerA

1urner CaIs Attention To Source Of
 Revenue For Farmers
 Calling attention to the problem with which southern farmers are confronted as a result of vanishing forests. Roland Turner, general agri- culture agent of the southern rail way system, in a statement to the Age-Herald Tuesday declared that the south must look to the farmers woodlots for it's future supply of timber. Farmers have a vital inter est in the problem of forest preser- vation, Mir Turner said in his state ment, because they are the south S largest consumers of wood as well as owners of large part of the present timber supply.
 The farmers woodlots can be made to yield a steady cash income as well as furnish lumber needed for the farms of the south" MT. Turner declared. What can be done to make the woodlot pay is shown by the fact that in 1921 the farm woolots of Maryland showed an average income of $2:75 per acre, and each tract was cut over in such a manner that new crop will fol- where advanced forestry methods have been adopted" he said.
 Mir. Turner is urging that the farmers of the south exercise care in the management of woodlands which are on soil too rough or in fertile for tillage, but which can be made to pay profitable dividend by cutting out the mature timber. and protecting the young growth from injury by fire and other causes.

 Commissioners W. l.. Harrison and W. E. Dickson were not to be found after the luncheon hour. Where they the same, it was known that Blr- minsham and Little Rock were slated for twin bill
 Commissioner W. B. Cloe is out of the city. So it fell to the lot of Com missioner Mary Echols, despite being tine only woman commissioner on earth, to assume the woman's role ana keep mouse, Tor she spent most of the day wondering where the money is coming from to enforce the screening law. and if the women of the city are going to back her cam paign for cleaner handling of food offered for sale in the shops.
 Among many matters of minor in terest three things stood out during the session of the commission. w.

To Leave Alien Bond Question For
 United States To Handle

WASHINGTON, June 12.-The Ca nadian commission, sent to Washing ton to negotiate with the United States government relative to Cana da's claim to certain enemy alien owned bonds of Canadian corpora tions seized by the American alien property custodian, has decided to re- turn home; leaving the matter in the hands of Attorney General Daugh- erty.
 The question involved, 1t was un- derstood after the commission had conferred with Secretary Hughes and called on President Harding today, is purely a legal one, and the next step cannot be determined until the department of justice has completed it's study and rendered its opinion. It was regarded as probable that the courts would be asked to make final adjudication.
 The property involved is under stood here to represent a value of approximately $2,00O,0O0.
