MAKE PLANS FOR
PROTECTION WEEK
FOREST PROTECTION WEEK TO
BE OBSERVED THROUGHOUT
STATE-BEGINS MONDAY.

Plans have been completed for the
observation Of forest protection week
in Idaho, April 22-28, according to
Dean F. G.. Miller of the University
of Idaho school of forestry, chairman
of the general committee. The spea-
! kers' bureau, in cooperation with the
United States forest service, has pro-
vided a speaking campaign in which
an attempt is being made to have the
forestry situation of the state pre-
sented very generally through ad
dresses by forest officials and pro-
minent citizens in the various COM
munities.
To emphasize the Importance of
forest protection week to the citizens
of this state the general committee
cites the fact that more than two-fifths
of the entire area of the state, or
approximately 23, 100000 acres, is for
ested, and that from this area flow
the streams and rivers which supply
the great irrigated areas of southern
Idaho and western Washington. In
Idaho the lumber industry ranks sec
ond only to agriculture as the chief
source of prosperity to the state. 1t
offers employment to 60 per cent of
the entire industrial population and
represents an invested capital of $780,
100000 and pays taxes of more than
100000 each year.
Preservation Essential
More than one-half of all the re-
naming timber in the United States
is found in the northwest and GER
tainly the future prosperity of this
region is very closely tied up with
the preservation of this resource and
the perpetuation of the industry it
supports. The present area of Ida /
hos forests is sufficient to maintain
the lumber industry at its present or
even a somewhat increased volume &
for ever if the tremendous ravages
annually made by fire are stopped
and reasonable care is taken to pro-
-ect the young growth says state
nent from the general committee.
The, main goal of forest protection
week is to bring home to each citizen
lis or her personal responsibility in
his matter This being accomp-
ished by very elaborate program,
making use of the cooperation af-
orded by Boy Scouts, American Lee
,ion posts commercial organizations,
clubs Rotary clubs, Elks'
,lubs, farm bureaus, the public +
schools, and many others. The com
nittee is endeavoring to place in
he hands of each citizen a folder
the essential facts about
he vast forest wealth of the state of
daho.

MOSCOW HIGH TO
OPEN BALL SEASON

The Moscow high school baseball
team will open the season tomorrow
when they meet the Pullman high
school nine at Pullman, in what is
expected to be a game between two
closely matched teams, both more or
less inexperienced and hardly in con-
dition at this early date. A return
game is scheduled to be played on
the Moscow diamond Saturday after
noon, at 2:30.
Coach Comrada has been little
reticent about giving out any definite
lineup for his two opening games
and in all probability will do con-
siderable shifting during the course
of the playing, giving as many men
as possible a chance to work against
the Pullman team. Howland will
probably start tomorrow's game on
the mound, and Patterson and Cham
berlain will undoubtedly see twir-
ling action in either Fridays or Sat
urday's contest
Likely Candidates
The lineup which will face Pull
man in the opening games will be re-
cruited from the following list of
players, Coach Comrada stated this
afternoon: Either Heath, Mccoy, or
Anderson, catcher; Smith or Stanley
at first base; Armbruster or Frazier
at second Coney Estes, short stop;
Nedros, third base; and Woody,
Mickey, Virgil Estes, Hall, Louvass
for the outfield positions.
Weather has considerably handi-
capped the local nine in its early sea-
son practice, but it Is thought that
they will have an even break with
heir rivals across the line in the
.wo weekend games.
The inter-class series has now mar
,owed down to the juniors and sopho I
nores, who will play the champion
ship game next Monday afternoon.
rhe juniors were successful in win
ling from the seniors this week, IA
0 s. while the sophomores had little
ifficulty in beating the freshmen, Z
