Trip Through New England
The New England States are in
northeastern part of the United
States.
These states have many industries.
They are: manufacturing, fishing,
numbering, quarrying, mining, and
commerce.
There are many beautiful scenes.
There are the White Mountains in
New Hampshire, the Green Mountains
in Vermont, and the Berkshire Hills
in Massachusetts. The soil is very
rocky and they can't have very much
farming.
There are also many beautiful lakes
and rivers. That is why they have SO
many summer resorts. Some rivers
are the Pennabscot, Kennebec, Con
necticut, and the Merrimack. Lakes
are the Champlain, Winnepepeaukee,
Moosehead, Chamberlain, Rangelery
and Heron.
They have many forests in these
states most of which are in Maine
and New Hampshire The trees are
pine, spruce, hemiock, oak, ash, maple
and birch. Maple sugar is made from
the maple trees. They also make pa
per and lumber
They have the quarrying and min
ing industries too. They quarry, mar
BILE, slate, and granite. Most of these
are found in Vermont. Also there are
red and brown sand stones.
There are many important cities
some of them are Lynn in Massachus-
etts, Fall River, New Bedford, and
Springfield in Massachusetts, Ruth
land Vermont, Auburn, Maine, and
New Haven, Connecticut.
They have very irregular coast
line SO we know that they have many
good seaports. The coast i very
rocky.
Three facts that make manufacture
ing important are: They have the
power, the people, and the goods.
Some of the things that they make
are cotton and wooden goods, raw
material, lumber and maple sugar.
New England is on the coast so it
has the fishing industry They send
ships out and get these fish, cod, hall
but, mackerel, oysters and Holsters .

Points and Benefits

"The federal government, of course
does not pay taxes but acquires land
by purchase from individual owners.
1t agrees with the counties in which
it is located that it will build roads,
erect lookout towers, put in trained
men to handle the fire menace (who
also see that the state game laws
are observed), plant up or reseed
such devasted areas as is practical
establish nurseries for that purpose,
supervise and maintain at it's own ex-
pense all the activities within a ma
tional forest and then turn over to the
counties 25 per cent Of all gross reven
ue from its operation, such moneys to
be used by the counties for roads and
schools. Eventually the income of a
national forest through the sale of
pulpwood, logs, wood, leases for sum-
mer homes, etc., will run into large
figures. Isn't it best to face the stu
alton as it is and do everything pos
sible to assist iii establishing a ma.
tional forest within our borders which
before many years, will be productive,
source of benefit and pleasure to
the many thousands of people who
either live in the Land OLakes or
spend their summers there. Rhine.

resorts are located. These would be
largely benefited by the proximity of
national forest and the additional
tourists drawn to or near such for.

loss of taxes from such poor lands.

plants, excelsior factories, broom

communities dependent on them
which, before many years, will cease
due to the supply of pulpwood and

ize what northern Wisconsin would
look like today if forest fires were
kept under control
"8-Fishing and hunting are per-
mitted in national forests subject to
the state game laws. Is there any one
in the state of Wisconsin who would
not feel real pride in having ma
tional forest established in northern
Wisconsin, protected from fire, where
the streams and lakes could really be
stocked with fish, the deer, partridge
and small game would have a proper
chance to rear their young.
"A national forest must not be con
fused with national park which is
maintained for the pleasure and
amusement of the public" Mr.. Mylrea
writes. "A national forest is purely an
effort of the federal government to
re-invest non-agTicultural lands with
timber and make these areas self
sustaining and profitable. In other
words, they are run from a business
point of view, though necessarily the
growth of timber is slow. Within a
few years these same non productive
lands will be on a sustained yield for
ever.

FLOWERS LOSES ID
 DELANEY AGAIN
Bridgeport Fighter Knocks Out t Negro in Fourth

New York, Ireb. 27.--Tiger Flow CTS, Atlanta negro middleweight, be- ileved for time last night that he had defeated Jack Delaney of Bridge port, Conn, on a foul. yet the Con necticut man won the bout by a knockout. ua
 Strange actions by officials, almost a repetition of scene in one of the first round lightweight tournament bouts the night before, kept the crowd on its feet for about five min utes while the fourth round was in- terrupted and all phases of the mat ter discussed. ,e<
 Flowers, who had been aggressive in the early rounds and had man. aged to avoid Delaney's crushing right, went down in the fourth from a short blow to the chin, but was up at the count of two. Delaney rushed across the ring to attack and as he left his punch go, Flowers sank down, catching the blow on the shoulder. According to the rules. Flowers had fouled by going down without being hit, and also, accord ing to the rules Delaney had com- mitted a foul by hitting Flowers 1 when he was down.== s-" @%b Referee Patsy Haley seperated1the combatants and sent them to their corners. Then ensued a discussion lin which deputies Of the state ath- |letic commission argued that the foul was doubled, that one offset the other, and after four minutes of de- lay the fourth round was resumed. l Within minute Flowers went down again from a. right uppcrcut and this time failed to rise--the sec ond time that he had been knocked
 out by Delaney in two months. On the previous occasion the Bridgeport man scored his victory in two rounds. ,..

 Of this quintet, the absence of two is accounted for, Bush. now at Hot Springs, was expected in camp in a day or two and Porter has notified the club that he will not be able to report because of his scholastic du- ties at Olglethorpe University, Siscr Iannounced.
 There are only two regular receiv- CTS on hand now. the veteran Sever cid and the diminutve Rego, both Of last years staff. Dixon is a known holdout.
 A heavy fog at Stockton, Calif., prevented the Cardinals from prac- ticing yesterday morning, but they made a good showing at batting practice in the afternoon.

2ABE .RUTH'S G|RTH
 CLOSELY WATCHED
Hornsby and Rival Expected to
 Furnish Thrills
sy The Associated press.

By The Associated Press.
 New York, Feb. 27.-Ordinarily an individuals waistline might be classified under the heading of ir- relevancy from q national point of interest, except when that individual happens to be Babe Ruth. Just now, in a tigurative sense, tho eyes of baseball. fandom are centered upon his famous waistline and con- ditioning himself for a campaign in which he hopes to fulfill a twin ambition.
 The Babes double -barreled goal this year Is to eclipse the record seasons home run harvest of 59. which he established in 1921, and to lead both major leagues in batting, They are uppermost In the mind Of | the favorite son of swat as he boils out the seasons excess tonnage and wages, on the side, perspiring battle with bogie on the links at Hot Springs, Ark. There was a time when temperament was Ruth's main obstacle but he has overcome this, only to face the problem of the waistline,
 Granting, however that the Babe will be in trim when the barrier lifts on the 1925 chase. his chances of setting a few new records with the ,I bludgeon are not remote. The widespread impression that Ruth was just a home run hitter, slug ger without any other claims to fame, has been pretty well removed by the evidence of the past season or two. Fans and experts alike now recognize Ruth as one of the greatest all-around stars the game has ever known, besides his status as a star whose main act pulled
 baseball back to peaks of popularity when its fortunes were at low ebb few seasons ago. Walter Johnson filled a somewhat similar role in the games drama last fall with another crisis at hand.
 Starting his thirteenth season in
 the majors,> Ruth's record would seem to leave little to stir any am-
 bition but his own. He first at tracted note as star pitcher, then
 inaugurated a new era in long
 range gunnery and, finally. estab-
 lished his merits as an all-around star, a good base runner, quick; thinker and reliable fielder, as well ' as champion batsman and run , maker. His all-around worth was recognized officially when the American league gave him its most , valuable player crown in 1928. Last season, Ruth led the American 1 league hitters for the first time witt l mark of .S7S, but this was topped by the modern record percentage oi l ,42S5, set by Rogers Hornsby of the , St. Louis Cardinals. Ruth is ouI this year to pass Hornsby in the 5 averages as well as in home runs . Theirs will be battle royal be. l tween two of the games greates
 monarchs.

BOYS CLUB HEADED
 FOR SPRINGFIELD
Great Passing Combination VIII Again Do Its Stuff Against Ccltics
 Waterbury Here Monday

The Boys club first team will go up the river to Springfield tomorrow night for a return basketball game with the Celtic A. C. of that city at the Springfield Boys club. The first match, played in this city three weeks ago, proved a walkover for the locals, who ran up 49-24 score and could have gone much higher had they not spent the en- tire third period in passing the ball In and out instead of shooting. The Celtics on their own floor, however, promise to be a different team, as is shown by their record of wins be- fore they struck the New Britain quintet.
 This will be the first out-of-town trip for the locals since the ill., starred expedition to Waterbury when both automobiles were wrecked and left in the ice on Wa terbury mountain. A bus has been hired for this journey, and a num- Der of rooters have already signed up to go with the team.
 Monday night, the club plays the Waterbury Boys club, which has lost only five games in three years, while the Reserves will stack up against the Lewis high school junior varsity of Southington. A week from tonight will find the Orange and Black team in Newark, N, J.. where they will play the undefcated Pirates at the Downtown Boys club A home and home series with the fast and heavy Pequohock five and other good games have been ar ranged to complete the schedule fol | the season.

Cleveland Pitchers Have
 Sore Arms for Practice

Cleveland. Feb. 27.-With the first squad of Cleveland recruit pitchers preparing today to start for the h. dians' spring training camp at Lake, land, Fla, reports were received here from Hot Springs, where the veterans started preliminary training two weeks ago, that several are suf- foring sore arms.
 The Indian pitchers are doing more strenuous training than mem- bers of the Yankees and Washing ton clubs at Hot Springs, the dis patches state. A two-hour session on the ball field is sandwiched be- tween runs in the morning and aft crnoon, with an hour in the hot bath completing the days program.

Chicago, Feb. 27.-To be a big league pitcher for 14 seasons is con- sidered a real feat. especially in these days of lively baseballs and free hit ting. But to hurl as many cam paigns without once falling below the ,500 mark in the averages is some thing even more out of the ordinary
 That's the record that Grover Cleveland Alexander of the Chicago Cubs has hung up since coming into the majors. And it rates as one of the greatest pitching feats in modern baseball annals. It is even more noteworthy considering the class of teams he has had to work with as a rule.
 Alexander came to the big show as a member of the PhiIlies back in 1911. He got away to splendid start, winning 2S games and losing 1S. It was only the beginning of a meteoric career, however For ever since then the big fellow has been dishing out a winning brand of stuff. His major league record reads: 300 victories and 157 defeats, an average of .656.
 All told. Alexander has topped the 20-mark in victories on eight occa- sions. And he has reached or got over the 30-game class three times. Over a three-year span--1915-l6-1T he collected 94 triumphs to but 35 defeats, an average of .72o. He is one of the few hurlcrs who have turne0 in at least 50 wins three sea sons in row.
 One of the Big Alex's greatest as- sets has been control. Like Christy Mathewson and Babe Adams of more recent times, Grover could put ball in almost any spot he wished. His ability to toss them where he want ed to was uncanny to say the least In 1923 he went through his first 51 innings without allowing a single base on balls. He handed out but 30 walks throughout the entire season
 Alexander has been in just one world series. that being in 1915. He has been with tIte Cubs since 1918 His record surely speaks for itself.

Swedish Swimmers
 Break World Records

Miami, Fla, Feb. 27.-Five world swimming records went down to ob- livion under the combined assault of Arne Borg, of Sweden, and his fair companion of the women's swimming division.
 Borg lowered the 300 metor back stroke record by nine and four-fifths seconds, making the new mark .3:35 1-5, while the women swimmers shattered the 800 yard relay ,I2O yard style, 300 meter free style and the 40 yard breaststroke rec ords, making a total of 12 new marks established in three days at this meet, another record in itself.
