plies, it assuredly stands justified. Such Is
now the status of scientific forestry.
1t was but few years ago, says the
southern Lumberman, that numerous inves-
tors in the industry for which it speaks were
inclined to oppose any sort of forestry
legislation. Fortunately. however, wiser
counsel gained Roadway, so that now: 1--WE
have the pleasing spectacle of practical lum-
bermen comforting with foresters and with
public men, seeking to discover the most eff
fective means in properly utilizing and con-
serving forest resources. Not only that, but
examples are multiplying of lumber firms
who have already seen the light and who
are conducting reforestation projects on a
large SCALE In Louisiana alone, where con-
ditions are favorable, there are several big
manufacturing firms who, after careful in
vestigation of the possibilities, are working
of their operations" 1t is added in this con-
nection that under skilled forestry manage
ment "the one hundred million acres Of
non-ag agricultural pine land in the South Is
capable Of producing from sixteen to twenty
five billion board feet of lumber annually
for all time, in addition to millions of cords
of wood for pulp, fuel posts and other pur-
poses"
Nowhere is there greater need of pom
dering and practicing this wise counsel than
in Georgia. Investigation has shown that the
forest area of this state which now produces
annually less than one and a quarter billion
board feet of timber, worth on the stump
about seven million dollars, could be made to
produce, by simple measures of conservation.
upward of six billion board feet, worth more
than thirty million dollars. Priceless oppor-
tunities are being wasted, Invaluable treas
ure is being carelessly destroyed, and vast
deal of trouble needlessly laid up for the
years ahead, all for want of a sensible and
adequate forestry law. Surely, the legisla-
ture will not delay due action on this urgent
matter beyond another session.

during the past fiscal year. This is about
one-ffth Of the annual production. China
took 9,000,00O,00O of the number exported,
while practically all the remainder was alb
sorbed in the Orient. Europe imported only

name? G. H. L.
A. 1t is quebracho. 1t is pronounced as if
spelled Kabracho The word means "break

Trying to Help the Farmer

1.-THE weekly news letter issued by the
Democratic National committee, at
Washington, defeats it's own object in
attempting to impugn the sincerity of Presi-
dent Coolidge by attributing to partisan mo-
tives commendable effort to reduce the cost
of commercial fertilizer through the repeal
Of the duty on importatons of sulphate of
ammonia.
We are informed by the news letter from
Washington that Senator Walter F. George,
author of the proposed repeal of the duty on
sulphate of ammonia, was inspired by a de-
sire to test the sincerity of the President in
his declaration that cheaper fertilizers must
be provided for the farmers" We prefer to
believe that Senator George was Influenced
try, and that President Coolidges utterance
prompted move that in other circumstances
would have been futile
"It is not conceivable that Congress, in
view of the strong statements of President
Coolidge, will continue this duty of IS a ton
at the direct expense of the farmers, when
all other fertilizer materials are duty free, -
Senator George said, explaining his action in
introducing his bill.
OF course the farmers of the country are
gouged frightfully in consequence of the
duty on sulphate of ammonia, which is one
of the iniquties of the Fordn ey -McCumber
tariff act. The five dollars per ton that is
levied by the law simply means that the
farmers pay tribute in the sum to the do
mestic producers of the product.
The United States produces more sulphate
of ammonia than is required to meet do
nestle demands. The surplus is exported,
and sold in other countries in competition
with the foreign product, and, of course for
five dollars per ton less than in the home
market.
We doubt not that President Coolidge was
sincere in his declaration that cheaper fer
tilizers must be provided for the farmers, -
and we are hopeful that his influence with
Congress will be such as to result in the re-
peal of the duty sulphate of ammonia.
In the very nature of things, 1t isn't
likely that the Republican leadership in
Congress will permit Democratic senator
to receive credit for the repeal Of the duty,
but we believe that the people themselves
will accord to Senator George and the Demo
bair
the Objectionable tax is removed.

After the house-surgeon had examined

'As no simultaneous abrasion is observ-

Then turning to the patient, he asked:

Low Cost Crude and Ex-

zle Governor.
STARTS INVESTIGATION
Texans Reap No Benefit
From 0,0OO-barrel
Daily Surplus.
STARTS INVESTIGATION

Austin. Tex, Aug. 2.-Governor
Nef has taken hand in alleged COM
missions in fixing price of oil and gaso-
line with the announcement that he
has instituted an extended investiga-
ton into complaints that have come to
Sthe state railroad commission and
other state officials.
1t was stated authoritatively that
the governor has taken up the matter
with United States oil and gas off
Gals and that the investigation prob
ably will extend into other states in
an effort to obtain information regard
ing reported price fixing.
During the week." the governor in
an authorized statement disclosed:
Il have had conferences with repre-
sentatives from the attorney generals
department and from the office of the
oil and gas. division of the government,
in an effort to find out why the price
of gasoline remains exceedingly high
while the price of crude oil continues
10 drop each day lower and lower. The
problem seems a difficult one.
Storage Tanks Built.
"On investigation l find that the
daily production of crude oil is ap-
proximately 100000 barrels a day.
In other words. we are producing 5O0.-
600 barrels of oil each day beyond
what is either used or shipped out to
other countries.
Crude oil producers are building
large earthen storage tanks to care for
the oil they cannot sell. The pipe line
companies are not able. TO accept for
transportation more than 60 per cent
of the oil offered to them from owners
of the OVERLOOKING storage tanks.
Now the strange thing is that, in
the face of this overwhelming supply
of crude oil, gasoline continues to sell
at a high price. In Austin today it is
retailing at 10 cents per gallon. Luz
bricating oil is selling for not less than
81 a gallon, although the producers
can get only $3.50 per barrel for it.
Fayors Aggressive Step.
1T can certainly be said that some
one somewhere has blundered, for the
consumers of gasoline are getting no
benefit from the big supply OF crude
oil. 1 have had conferences during the
last few days with the representatives
of the several departments OF the gov
eminent in an effort to ascertain what,
If anything, can be done to harmonic
Ahe high price of gasoline with the low
.price of crude oil, to the end that the
citizenship of Texas may get the bene-
fits of the vast amounts of crude oil
being taken out of our soil.
II am very much in hopes that some
aggressive step can be taken by the
nroper authorities"
