WHAT EUROPE MUST PAY

1t is estimated now that foreign,
countries are under obligation to pay
about $1,000, 100000 annually, in gold
or its equivalent credit, to America on
account of war debts and private
debts. Hence, it is not merely ques-,
ton of increasing Europe's productive
ity by increasing her equipment of
machinery and improvements; it is a,
question OF how Europe can maintain
its buying power in gold without cut,

Proving That Truth

Amy Lowell was, as all the world
knows, devoted to Keats. She be-
lieved herself spiritually attuned to
him.

visited at her home near Boston"
says DR.. A. s. w. Rosenbach In
Books and Bidders" "After de-
lightful dinner we went into her IL
brary. where we lighted our cigars
and talked. M
Suddenly she leaned toward me
and. with an excited brightness In her
eyes, said:

PLENTY. PROTEIN AVAILABLE

The farmer, and especially the dairy
farmer, who is looking for the most
economical source Of proteins for the
production of milk this winter, will
find that source in good alfalfa hay
That is what DR.. G. H. Eckles of the
dairy division, University Of Mime
sofa, told room packed with dairy
farmers at University Farm for Farm
ers' and Home-Makers' Week. II
One of the big problems Of those
engaged in milk production is to pro-
vide digestible prOteins, for proteins
often come high. Last season, how
ever, there was fine alfalfa crop, and
alfalfa hay, which can be had at $10
ton, will provide the necessary pro-
tein this winter, said Dr. Eckles.s II
a farmer has no alfalfa and has other
hay, however, he said, the thing to do
is to feed the hay he has, and then
buy the least expensive Of protein
supplements such as linseed meal orr
cottonseed meal, for per 100 pounds
Of digestible proteins these are the
cheapest of these supplements right
now.
DR.. Eckles advised the dairyman
who heard him to be sure to feed
their good cows well-up to their ca
pacity of milk production. If cows
were fed less than would provide for
capacity production, the costs Of pro-
duction would go up.

by Trade Commissioner Emil Kekich
result, the report declares, has been
accomplished through forestry prac-
tice making extensive areas more pro-
ductive and through closer utilization
which has relatively reduced cutting.
Without question timber growing is
the outstanding feature in the indus
trial economy of Sweden at the pres
ent time and it is constantly becoming
of greater Importance. Over one-half
of the land area is especially adapt
able to forest growth, with the soil
possessing little or no fertility as ag-
ricultural land. The bulk of the for
ests belongs to private owners, and
the forest policy of the country has
been essentially one of the economy
of private holdings. The owners of
these private forests are divided into
two groups-the farmers, large and
small, and large corporations which
operate on large-scale forest methods.
The Swedes were among the first to
realize that some measure of restric-
ton in the large private forest areas
was necessary, and among the first,
if not the first, to actually apply RENE
dies to overcutting and incidentally
point the way for other countries.
Practically all the large lumber, paper
Ind pulp corporations operate forest
departments of their own, which work
in close harmony with the royal con-
servation boards, the government for
est service and the colleges and
schools. From the forest experiment
station at Stockholm comes DR.. Lars
G. Romell to take the Charles Lathrop
Pack research professorship of forest
soils just established at Cornell uni
versity.
The unusual character of its legis-
lation has been the principal contri-
button to Sweden's progress in forest
management during the past two dec
AIDES. The most important point in
volved in this legislation governing the
care of the forests is that the success
full promotion of forest management
depends in the last analysis on the
WuOlc-HcdIIcu SuppoiI VI lhC pCopiC
and it's universal application. The
principal feature of enforcement en-
bodies the element of securing CO.
operation primarily through education.
If the example of Sweden, which
may well be emulated by the United
States, presents the bright side of the
picture, the experience of another ma
ton plainly shows the darker side and
should be an object lesson to this
country, Unless it gives the forestry
problem serious consideration. From
a recent issue of the Congressional
Record is taken these excerpts under
the title of "a Plea for the Forests"
from an address by John Q. Tillson,
majority leader of the national house
of representatives, who made an ex-
tended trip through China, Japan and
Korea last summer:
No one can visit China without hav-
ing the tragic lesson of forest destruc-
ton borne in upon him in a most force
full manner. China has 400.000,000 pop
ulation. In area it is one of the largest

New Platinum Supply

The London colonial Office an
nounces that platinum-bearing area
of about 40 square miles in extent
has been discovered in Sierra Leone,
West Africa, because the deposits,
which are alluvial, are "likely to be
of considerable importance"
Platinum is the most valuable of
all metals. The present price is about
$40 an ounce.
An interesting point in connection
with the new discovery is that at
present the world depends on soviet
Russia for more than half of its plati-
mum supplies.

FIRST SCHOOL IN AMERICA

Where was the first free public
school on the American continent?
1t must, almost beyond peradven-
ture, it seems, have been in the orig
inal colonies, because, after their ar
rival in 1920, the Pilgrims went about
making well rounded provisions for
the daily life and needs Of the colony.
and such provisions must have in
cluded a device for the education Of
the children.
The amiable controversy is lent
fresh impetus at this time with the
statement from group of teachers
In Brooklyn, N. Y, giving an opinion
based upon considerable research and
study, that the first free public school
in the United States was established
in the borough of Brooklyn in 1861.
Dorchester (Mass.) historians be-
lieve that the first free public school
was on Thompson's Island, near Bos-
ton, established there and supported
by taxation of the people, in 1889.
The island had been given to the in
habitants of Dorchester in 1885.
Dedham considers that its right to
the honor of having had the first free
public school in the country is indis-
putable and cites the action of its
town fathers, January 1, 1914 (old
style, new style, 1645), in passing
vote to provide some means for the
education Of that town, the result of
which was a free school supported
by taxation.
Newport, r. l., has long claimed the
site Of this much-discussed first
school," and a tablet there sets forth
that August 20, 1910, Newport voted
that Robert Lenthall Should keep a
public school for the learning of youth
and for his encouragement, and that
the town granted this man and his
heirs 100 acres of land and four more
for a house lot. Also 100 acres was
laid forth and appropriated for a
school for the encouragement Of the
poorer sort."-Christian Science Moni-
tor.

More Work From Coal

In recent years the efficiency of
ton of coal has been greatly increased
and 1t is stated this has been accom-
plished mainly through the activities
of the electric power companies by
which all suggested improvements are
tried out and adopted when warranted.
Between 1900 and 1927 the increase
in the amount of power used repre-
scented 90 per cent, whereas the in
crease in the amount Of fuel used was
only IL per cent.
