CONSERVE THE FORESTS

With some 800 special weeks in the course of a
year it is rather difficult to devote editorial space to
the recognition of each. National Forestry Week
which has just been observed however is deserv-
ing little passing mention.
This exists not to exploit the goods Of any group
of manufacturers, or to put across any propaganda
that self interested groups desire It is established
purely to call attention to the Importance of CON
serving Of our most valuable national resources.
Trees indeed among the greatest Of all Of the
friends of man. They furnish the materials for shell
ter for comfort and for work They give the dweler
in the prairie protection from the hot sun of sum-
mer and the cold winds of winter. They withhold
waterflow and prevent floods. They furnish refuge
and places Of recreation for thousands
Everyone appreciates the beauty and comfort
that trees may give to countryside. Few there are
who not eated at prospect for vacation in the
woods. And most of us understand the economic
significance of forestration All that is needed there
fore is the translation of this vague public interest
into national policy that will eventually restore to
tree denuded widernesses some of their original
beauty and economic Importance.

HOT STUFF
FAT

There used to be line in play that went, "No-
body loves fat man."
At least nowadays no woman wants to be fat
There is just one cause of fat, however People
should remember that they never put anything on
their abdomen hips in the way of fat that does not
come through their mouth in the way of food.
It is nice to talk about these things and it is less
bu1niliating than to admit that we eat too much
The real cause of fat is that we eat too much and
live too much at ease.
If some of the ladies who complain of too much
obese tissue would make practice of taking the
broom and sweeping the floor and getting down ON
their knees and mopping up the kitchen and doing
the family wash, they would speedily recover their
desire for smness.
The candy habit grows and grows
Nc better cure for an enlarged abdomen can be
found than bending over wash board and no better
cure for plano-shaped legs than plenty of walking
1t we would get down to the simple life and move
about more and eat less our figure would show it.
Exercise for the sake of exercise is pretty hard
to take but exercise performed in the course of ones
daily duties is not so hard.
One ought to arrange ones life as much as DOS
sble to wait on ones self The necessary action of
the body in attending to ones needs will have great
effect upon ones shape.
| met man in Paris some Years ago and when
asked him on behalf of friend where good valet
could be secured he replied that he did not know
about vaets as for years he had been trying to
see how many things he could get along without and
not how many things he could get
See how much you can do without and arrange
your lie as much as possible so that you have to
wait on yourself and you will not have much trouble
with your figure.

VARIED VIEWS ON FARM RELIEF

A painstaking survey made by the New York
Times seems to indicate that there is lessened de-
mand among the farmers of the country for the NC
Nary-Haugen bill or similar farm relief legislation.
These reports to the effect generally that the
farmers are more prosperous and that many OF them
do not care much about Federal relief measures.
These reports certainly present an optimistic
view when compared with that of B. F. Yoakum OF
New York, who is urging the Democratic party to
write strong agricultural plank into its platform be-
cause, he contends the prosperity of the nation is
endangered by the condition of the farmer today.
Farming must restored to prosperous condition,
he says, or the nation as a whole will suffer.
According to the recent survey, farmers OF New
England are opposed to the McNary- -Haugen bill or
similar legislation. Farmers of Ohio are divided on
the matter, while farmers of Indiana and Illinois
are for legislation
Some demand for legislation is reported from
Missouri and Arkansas. Kansas and Nebraska farm
ers seem to favor legislation. There is little interest
in Florida and some other states are divided IN
their opinion, ;scluding Louisiana and Texas.
The survey seems to indicate that the movement
for farm relief legislation, which has absorbed Con
gress for several sessions, is constructing more and
more into sectional rather than national demand.
