AMERICAN FOREST WEEK
BEGAN APRIL IS; ENDS oath
Purpose to Encourage RefOres-
tation-PrOclamatiOn Issued
By President and Governor

Plans for observance of American
Forest Week, April 1924, as pro-
claimed by President Coolidge and
Governor Richie, will be in charge of
a committee of citizens headed by
De Courcy W. Thorn, of Baltimore.
This announcement was made Thurs
day from the headquarters of the
Maryland Forest Week Committee.
Other members of the Committee are:
J. l.. Alcock, c. Clemson Brown, DR..
William Burdick, NJ. C. Byers, C. C.
Gelder, G. M. Gillette, Henry Holz-
appel, Jr., Mrs. John H. Skeen, P. M.
Womble.
Forestry in Maryland will receive
more attention this year than ever
before, the plans for the week al
ready make evident" said Mr.. Thorn,
Chairman, in statement issued
Thursday.
"Most of our citizens realize the i'm
portance Of productive foests, the
control of soil erosion, and kindred
matters, but it is necessary to edu-
cate our woodland owners in the
methods of timber growing, and to
strengthen our provisions for control
ling forest fires and encouraging re-
forestation if the interests of the
people of Maryland are to be fully
safeguarded.
president Coolidge and Governor
Richie in their proclamations called
upon all citizens to share in the COM
mon task of forest conservation and
renewal. Judging by the hearty CO.
operation the Maryland Forest Week
Committee is receiving, the campaign
will be generally taken up in our
State. Our schools and clubs are
especially active in observing the
week"
At present, we in Maryland are
cutting our forests twice as fast as
we are growing them, and using wood
1OuI dS ldSI DIS We are
it. This means that we must import
from other states the timber we need,
because we are not growing it. These
outside sources of supply are being
drawn on very heavily and cannot
last for many years. Then, too, there
is the terrific expense of the freight
bills on hauling timber long distan-
ces. This would be unnecessary if
we took the proper care of our forests
and made them produce their maxi
mum.
The committee will be glad to fur
nish speakers, as far as possible, for
this week to any organizations apply

eyes, l think the fair wonderful
annual event." said DR.. Henry w. Nc
Comas, president of the Garrett Coun-
ty Fair Association, the other day.
"Stop and think" the genial doctor
continued, "of the real purpose and
possibilities of this annual get to-
gether occasion. Let US have an en-
larged conception of the functions of
the Fair in community life.
"Primarily, an organization for the
advancement of agriculture and of
those directly concerned with agricul-
ture-all interested in the community,
both rural and urban. Enlarge this
conception to induce the idea that the
Fair is intended not only to record
progress of production but serve as
means for the advancement of every
phase of rural life.
"The Fair will mean much to me
and to my friends. When it is a pro-
gressive Fair exhibits such as agri-
culture, live stock, machinery and
other urban products and public
school exhibits will be shown in vast
abundance.
"The County Fair should be the gen.
eral roundup of the economic and
social life of the county. 1t is a splen-
did time for an inter-community mu-
sic festival, athletic contests, etc.
Every effort should be made to
widen the acquaintance of the peo-
pie and to strengthen their personal
relationships as the basis for true de-
mocracy. AS leaders in rural life be-
come better acquainted with the pur-
pose and possibilities of the annual
economic and social roundup at Fair
time and as public appreciation of the
things truly educational grow, the
Fair will become one of the most pow
erful stimuli for rural advancement
available.
"Then we will gradually discard the
elements which have lessened the
value of the Fair, bring it to a de-
velopment of real utility and fill it
with educational agencies"

4iKLAND ROTARY CLUB
SPONSORS IMPROVEMENT
In Dairy Stock By Authorizing
Purchase of Purebred Heifer
to be Given Some Dairyman

The Oakland Rotarians, at their
weekly luncheon last Friday evening,
determined to sponsor the improve
ment of dairy herds in Garrett county
and to that end authorized the pur-
chase of a purebred dairy type heifer
to be given some dairyman located in
Garrett county, the manner of deter
mining the recipient of the animal
having already been worked out.
This movement on the part of the
local organization was brought about
through the announcement made a
few days prior by the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company that in coop
Grafton with the State Extension Ser
vice of the University of Maryland
and the Dairy Breeders Association,
the B. & o. will oprate over its lines
in Maryland some time during the
month of May Better Dairy Sire
Special"
The train thus to be operated will
serve dual purpose. First, it will
carry a specially arranged car in
which there will be educational exhib-
its of the National Dairy Council.
While this exhibit appeals to persons
of all ages, it is planned to appeal
particularly to children with the idea
of stimulating in their minds the de-
sire of drinking milk daily and in lib
eral quantities. Second, in addition
to the educational program, a number
of purebred bulls 10 to IS months of
age will be offered at private sale.
These bulls will not only be from
tested herds but from, dams with high
production records back of them. The
bulls are all guaranteed, delivered
without transportation charges and
will be available to the farmers of
Garrett county. All dairy breeds will
be represented in the sale. Any far
mer having a scrub or grade bull and
desiring to purchase purebred from
the train may turn in his scrub or
.aGe for which he will be allowed the
ILL beef price.
3. The train will also carry a lecture
car in which will be given lectures and
talks by leading dairy authorities and
others connected with the project.
The main feature of the stop in
Oakland will be the designation of the
recipient of the Rotary heifer. Each
farmer visiting the train will be re-
quired to register and from this list
of names the fortunate dairyman to
receive the animal will be selected.
While the above program is going
on at the Baltimore and Ohio yards in
Oakland, meeting specially for wo-
men will be held in the Court House,
which will be addressed by Miss Helen
Stark, national authority on nutri-
ton. 1t is also hoped that Professor
Happy Goldsmith, of the National
Dairy Council, may be available for a
thirty minute lecture to be delivered
in the auditorium of the local high
school. Professor Happy is a power
full speaker and in each community
where he works he exerts tremend-
Gus influence for the increased con-
sumption of dairy products.
The exact date and hour of the ar
rival of the special train will be an
nounced in The Republican in a later
issue.
