An Economic Problem.


The forestry problem in Mich.
can IS like unto that in Wisconsin
only IN that state the situation is
even more serious than in Wiscon-
SIN. There is, according to a state
rnent recently made, only two per
cent of the original pine forests re-
manning in that state, and there
are now some 100000 acres of
and lying idle, from which the
timber had been taken.
Just what this loss of timber
means to Michigan can be gained
from figures given before the meet
ing of the Escanaba Rotary club in
an address by DIR. Baker, of the
American Pulp & Paper association.
Michigan in 1890 produced more
tnan 4,000,0000OO board feet of
lumber and ranked first among the
lumber producing states of the I'M
ion. In 1920 the state produced
only little more than 100000 600
board feet and ranked sixteenth in
lumber production. The state now
imports approximately 80 per cent
OF her wood needs, paying a pre-
MUM of nearly $20,0O0,000 a year
IN freight on wood which the state
could be producing from its idle
forest lands" asserted DIR. Baker,
himself a graduate of the Michigan
tate college and formerly in
charge of forestry departments at
the Iowa and Penn State colleges,
and dean of the New York State
College of Forestry at Syracuse
university.
Forestry, like agriculture, is an
economic problem and will be
practiced only as it pays to pro-
duce wood as a crop from the soil.
For years forestry has been in a
sentimental stage, but now with
the cost of a cord of pulpwood ex-
ceedlng the cost of production of
that cord we have reached the per-
lod of economic development, and
we can afford to grow wood as a
crop. Before forestry can become a
great industry in the state, how
ever, the people must awaken to
the fact that the forests must be
effectively protected from fire and
Put under practical business man
agement."
Such statements, coming from a
man whose whole life has been de-

was man. A little blunt at times
but he had heart as big as d
Fourth of July celebration. He was
always passing around a paper and
heading the list to help some poor
folks along.
mus this congressman gets the
true heart beats of his people He
knows that Washington IS the
poorest place in the country to
hear the voice of the people. 1t is
out in the small towns and cities
and on the farms where people
know one another, that the true
heart of this democracy of ours
beats. 1t is here that the people
are searching their hearts for the
answer to the problems which are
troubling the lawmakers in con
gress. The big cities create a lot
OF problems but they seldom solve
them.
And so, in their humble way, the
country correspondents are mir
rorlng the thoughts and actions of
their people. They are the first to
hear of the bouncing baby boy and
the tidings Of death cast the early
shadows across their doorsteps.
Into the crucible of this thing we
call the newspaper they mix pros
perity and misfortune, success and
fai ure, happiness and misery,
progress and retrogression, the
hopes, longings, discouragements
and heartbreaks of their people.
These correspondents are the adj
vance agents for every movement
for the betterment of their COM
munities; the recorders of the
greatest forces in the upbuilding
Of townships progress, the public
ity representatives for all its activ-
tiles. A good correspondent is one
of the greatest forces in the up
building of any district. Slough

President Reserves Islands,

President Coolidge, by a recent
Executive Order, has withdrawn
from sett ement, location, or entry,
all islands owned by the United
States in the Mississippi between
Rock Island, H., and Wabasha,
Mimi, and has reserved them for
the use of the Department of Agri-
culture in connection with the es-
Enlistment of the Upper Mississ-
ippi River Wild-Life and Fish Ref
uge. The islands are withdrawn in
order that the Department of Agri-
culture may hold them as parts of
the wild-life refuge from the start
instead of having to buy them later
from private owners. These is
lands with other islands in the
river north of Cairo, ILL.,, were first
withdrawn from public entry in
1891 for the use of the War Depart
ment in connection with possible
Improvements of navigation on the
Upper Mississippi, but were re-
stored to entry and disposal by the
Secretary of the Interior, on April
Is, 1925. The order of President
Coolidge again retains under Gov
eminent ownership all islands
within the limits Of the new wild
life refuge.

The Value Of Country CORRESPONDENCE

A congressman, who ranks with
some of the most brilliant and in
duential men in Congress, remarked
to the writer several months ago
that he looked forward to receiving
his home town paper every week.
lie reads it before he opens his
letters.
Does he turn to the editors fam
ING and indignant editorials? No.
Does he read the front page with
IT'S murders, wars, riots and grew
some details Of the mishaps of the
unfortunate? No, he lights his
pipe, sinks deep into his chair and
leafs the paper over until he
comes to the country correspon-
dence.
Tom Wilson, the correspondent
writes, is building a barn. Well,
It looks as though Tom has turned
the corner and is getting ahead at
last. He's had lots Of trouble in
his time.
Aunt Emily is confined to her
bed with the old complaint, rheu-
matism. 1t looks as though the
community is having wet fall.
She always gets the rheumatism
when the days are cold and drizzly.
Bill Brown got another promo
ton and is making good in the big
city Everybody knew that Bill
would make good. The big city
often seems to draw the best and
the worst Of the country districts.
Tad Thompson is driving new
Ford and he plans to visit an uncle
down in Ohio whom he hasn't seen
in years. It's ten to one that Tad
bought the car on installments and
he will have to do a lot of head
scratchin to make the payments.
Funny how some folks get along
anyway.

Bass Most Popular.

III replies to my recent request
that anglers send in the names of
fish which should be termed "Pisca-
torial Princes" are true indica-
ton, the black bass is the leading
candidate for the honor Of heading
the list. The strange part of 1T IS
that the large mouth bass is ac-
tuaIly ahead Of the small mouth in
number of advocates. The brook
trout, aristocrat that he is, is
nearly a hundred votes behind the
small mouth bass, which in turn is
an even dozen votes behind the
large mouth.
Other fish that had been given
trst place by their friends are, In
the order Of their popularity, mus
keIIunge, great northern pike, pike
perch, channel-cat, pickerel, and
striped or white bass. Nearly
every food and game fish that
sWlms the fresh waters has re-
eeNed at least one vote, indicating
That the tastes of anglers varies
widely. One man declared that
salt mackerel" was his favorite
hSh, and we are inclined to believe
nat this was an example Of taste
WI every meaning of the word.

GrashOppers on Ice.

1t is nothing unusual to find
great quantities of insects, espec-
tally grasshoppers, buried in snow
fields and glaciers in the noun
Gains. A notable example of this
is Grasshopper Glacier, in the Alb
:aroka Mountain, a few miles north
of Yellowstone Park. The face of
This glacier is marked with stratum
after stratum of grasshoppers, and
there are places on the surface
where on can dig down few inches
and bring up solid handfuls Of legs,
heads, and other parts of grass
hopper shells. Presumably great
swarms Of insects attempting to
cross the glacier have been chilled
and subsequent falls of snow have
incorporated their bodies into the
ice.

A Busy Clam.

DIR. D. 7. Marshall of Hollis, N.
Y, says:
Their is a species of clam called
Paddock, which bores holes in hard
clay and soft rock and spends its
life in the cavity so made.
The Paddock burrows its home in
the rock by constantly turning its
rasp-like shell in the cavity. This
explanation of the Pidock's method
of boring is all very well after the
hole is well started but how about
the beginning of the hole before
the Paddock could get in to turn
round and round?
The Paddock begins the hole by
rubbing the surface Of its foot, or,
as one may as accurately describe
it. with it's hand; in which it holds
a handful of sand grains"

Getting Away With 1t.

AANoJ VASA AN'
Some automobile campers in a
national forest in the west recently
left their camp fire burning. They
were nearly out Of the forest, and
this evidently made them careless.
The fire spread and a good forest
fire was started before a ranger
discovered it. The fire was put
out, and then the ranger started
after the tourist. He kept on their
trail, and managed to keep track
of them, because Of the. unusual
color Of their car, through two
states. He caught up to them and
arrested them.
They didn't get away with it.
And if they had escaped, what is
it they would have gotten away
with? Simply with setting for
est on fire; spelling a small for
tune in timber, spelling the seen
cry It may have cost lives and
great property damage. They de,
rived no pleasure or profit from 1T.
Simply a little carelessness. 1t was
not worth while. 1t is amazing
what a vast area of beautiful for
est would be saved from destruc-
ton each year if all campers would
only take the slight trouble to be
careful.

To Keep Animals Away.

To Keep Animals Away.
The people of the highlands Of
Tibet in Asia must take every pre-
caution against attacks by tigers
at night, when they are camping
out The most popular method is
to place bundles of bamboo of var
ious diameters at several places
around the camp, and build a fire
around each bunch. These sticks
explode with a very loud report Of
various degrees of volume and at
various periods throughout the
night, according to- the thickness
Of the bamboo. Thus constant
noise, as of the firing Of a large
number of firearms, keeps the wild
animals at a distance.
