WOOD IN DESERT STATES.
New Mexico and Arizona Yield
Much Timber.

ALBUQUERQUE. y. Mex, May 10
R.-Mention of New Mexico and
Arizona as forest States would get
laugh out of the average person, be-
cause the popular fancy is that this
section is part of the Great Ameri-
can Desert" sprinkled with cacti and
yucca.
Yet figures of the logging division
Of the United States Forestry Service
disclose the fact that one-ffth of the
total area Of these States is timber,
chiefly yellow pine. The total TIM
hered area comprises 36,500,000 acres,
estimated to contain $1,000, 100000
feet of saw timber and $4,000, ,000, 900
cords of wood.
An unbroken stretch Of yellow pine
extends from the country west of the
Elephant Butte dam in New Mexico to
the rim of the Grand Canyon and
across into the Kaibab National forest.
Last year 268,000,00 board feet of
lumber was taken from the two States.

CONFEDERATE HEAD
EXTOLSOLD CAUSE
Says Veterans of Gray Are
Met to Rejoice, Not Weep,
and Would Fight Again.
BY fhe Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BIRMINGHAM. Ala, May 19.-The
men who followed Lee will carry on
as long as two of us can travel Gen.
w. B. Freeman. commander-in-c -chief,
said here today in the Keynote ad-
dress at the opening session OF the
thicty-siXth annual reunion of United
Confederate Veterans.
Away with the talk of limping
army Of old men; nonsense this talk
about the last reunion shouted Gen.
Freeman.
I'VE are not met as men about to
die. We want no funeral orations
delivered over US. We ask no SYM
rathy. We covet no tears. Far from
it, We are assembled to rejoice, not
to mourn.
I'VE have pride in our cause and
qualification at the memory of our
efforts for it. Were this the Fall of
1860 instead Of the Spring OF 1926, If
war had to come, every man of us. |
am sure, would do precisely as he did
In the day of test.
"In the words of an illiterate, but
ardent old rebel who was asked
about his war record, we amt
ashamed of nothing we have done
1T is, the greatest satisfaction OF
all, l think, to have fought for such
a cause, TO have known such leaders
and to have shared such moments.
Having that satisfaction. what have
we to fear of old age? How could we
he gloomy?
''And what have we to dread at the
hand Of time? Eight major wars
among great powers or strong alll-
ances have been fought since our
struggle ended. And what do we
find? Are our comrades exploits for
gotten and our commanders names
eclipsed? Precisely the reverse. Sol
diers are studying the strategy of our
campaigns in order that they may
more wisely direct those they may be
called upon to fight. What better re-
assurance could we have than that
for the future fame of the confeder-
acy? We are happy, immeasurably
happy"

BIRD DOG SAVES LIFE
OF MINING PROSPECTOR
Rescues Master After Hand-to-
Hand Fight With Mother
Cougar and Cubs.
~ the Associated Press.


TACOMA, Wash, May 19-If hero
medals were given to dumb animals.
Henry B. Spencer OF Tacoma would
apply for one for "Rex," his 9-month-
old bird dog. Mr.. Spencer credits his
life to the dog, which proved his
bravery in a hand-to-hand fight with a
mother cougar and her three cubs.
Mr.. Spencer. who is mining in the
Olympic Mountains, was suddenly
confronted with the animals. He was
unarmed and the beasts showed fight.
Spencer threw rocks at the mother
cougar, but in doing so he lost his
balance and fell. Before the enraged
cougar could spring. Rex appeared
and attacked one Of the cubs. This
distracted the mother, who turned on
the dog. Spencer was able to retreat
The dog came through with only
minor injuries.

A Wealth of Beauty
You'll Love to Live at
Bay Ridge Estates

Nature exceeded herself when
she formed Chesapeake Bay and
the surrounding country, providing
at the same time a great natural
observatory from which to view
her handiwork. This observatory
is at Tolly Point, Bay Ridge Es-
tates, and nowhere in the middle
Atlantic States can be found a
more inspiring stretch of scenery
than this view from Tolly Point.
Many other views of either coast
of the Chesapeake are beautiful
and inspiring, but from this famous
point-the highest coastal elevation
in Maryland-the vista is simply
indescribable.
Here one may stand overlooking
miles of country that for natural
beauty and historic interest is not
surpassed-if indeed it is equalled
the world over.
Many famous places make up
this panorama. Here at the mouth
of the Severn lies Kent Island, the
first and only principality in Amer
lean history, where William Clai-
borne unfurled his flag and estab-
lished a trading post, being finally
elected by the armed forces of Lord
Baltimore in the first naval con-
flict in Maryland waters.
To the north-"just around the
corner" = is the United States
Naval Academy and Annapolis,
where every inch of ground is hal
lowed, where many houses of pre-
revolution days are still standing,
where almost every street corner
and tree bear some historical sig
nifcance. Here are to be seen the
original mansions of Charles Car
roll of Carrollton, William Pinkney
and William Sands, who visited
George Washington times without
number. Here, too, stands the old
State House and the Senate Cham
Der in which our first President
gave up his army commission and
where the treaty with Great Britain
was ratified. Here one may visit
the Church of St. Anne, with its
old tombstones, some of which date
back to 1863; and the quaint tav-
crns and coffee houses and the mar
row streets opening on the bay, so
richly reminiscent of a historic
pasta city stepped in the hal
lowed associations bound up with
Americas first patriots.
