Conservation Is only the
wise use of natural resources.
And that word fuse" Is import
ant. For IL non use Is the fact
or determining the program
then 1t might as well be let al
one. Conservation must be a
long term proposition that
telescopes it's objective far in
to the future. That meets not
only the present situation, re-
pairs the past damage, but
meets aggressive future needs.
wen our lakes haven't pro-
ceeded to the stages where
conservation isn't needed.
There's some first aid needed,
but more than that it requires
wise handling.
The state thought it had the bull
by the horns in planting fry in
lakes for pike, bass other game
fish that the sportsman wants.
They have found, after a rude
awakening, that in many lakes at
least that was so much water
dumped into the lake. Fry went
in by the millions, but no maturity
ever seemed to come about. An
old resorter has told me he's seen
perch swim into a maze of bass
shawn. With mouth wide, the
perch swims through the spawn,
gulps huge nouthfuls with each
successive trip. In no time at all
the spawn almost completely dis
appeared. With man propped up
on the side Of the perch, 1t is little
wonder that nature can't handle
what is otherwise a very simple
process of balance for her. The
answer seems to be as reflectd in
dozens of new experiments now
the use Of rearing beds where the
fry are raised to fingerlings.
And man goes back on the side OF
nature.

Sportsmen of the state have real
Nv become conservation-minded.
The lakes, regarded as one of the
states prize natural resources,
have received serious consideration.
Those interested in the contin-
uous growth of the touring traffic
and the continued balance of wild
life in the lakes are going for
new conservation measures. .
For they've found themselves face
to face with the startling reality
that: lakes, under the tremendous
volume of fishing, won't restock
themselves, and measures, once
thought adequate, are now found
to be without much beneficial eff
feet.
The lakes got the same treat
ment that most of this cOun-
try's abundant resources got.
That treatment was abuse,
with no plan for the future,
no thrift in taking that which
was needed. The abuse
the buffalo got was reflected
I'm the treatment of the forests.
The game and the fish got the
same consideration.
The fact was that people, used
to old world conservatism,
went hog wild on this coun-
try's resources. That Is,
until all of a sudden the start
ling fact of extinction stared
us in the face.
Then came mad scrambles to
preserve what we had left. There
were sudden curtailments of any
use of the endangered resource.
The result is simply that you
don't have conservation; you have
simply non use of certain re-
source. Conservation Is not a
program that can be inaugurated
at the last minute as cure all
as a resource is breathing its last
gasp. It can't even enter the scene
as the sinned against is painting
hard. Because it's not first aid
to the wounded; it's preventive
medicine.

Fred Bessette Writes on
Paper and Timber,

Fred BesSette, executive secretary of
the Timber Producers association, in
speaking of the timber industry in his
June / bulletin, touches on the question
in the following well put manner. Fred
has keen insight into the timber
business and from the tone of his
bulletin, he paints a picture which
paper users can rely on insofar as any,
one knows. He says:
MANY operators are asking the same
question. How about the market?
What is the price of wood going to be?
With the stock market jumping up and
down, the war news contradictory and
Congress paying no attention to en-
ployer's demands for sanity in the
administration of the N. L. R. B. and
Wage and Hour laws, there is ample
proof of the claim that business, big
and little, is suffering with a bad case
of the "jitters." This condition may
not be juStifiable but it is none the
less with us and perhaps the principal
reason why no general announcement
as to pulp prices for peeled wood have
as yet been announced. Some local
advances in prices have been made of
1919 above last year on peeled spruce,
at loading points, and in one of two
instances raise of SOC per cord has
been quoted for peeled jackpine, but
these advances are not general through
the timbered area of the state.
Stocks of imported wood on the
docks in the East are practically ex-
hausted and many mills in the Lake
States Region are reported to be get
ting low on their wood supply so that
there is bound to be an increased de-
mand for wood in the near future,
especially if the war in Europe con-
tinueS. Canadian operators are re-
ported to be arranging for an unusually
large cut of pulpwood and there are
rumorS that the British government
may commander stocks of pulpwood
and lumber to replace supplies formerly
obtained from Norway, Sweden and
Finland, but which are now shut off
because of the war.
so many different factors have a
bearing on the present situation which
involve the owner of stumpage, the
jobber, the papermill operator and the
government itself in its relation with
other countries and with labor, that
an extremely chaotic and uncertain
condition exists which, for the present
at least, makes capital in the industry
fearful of venturing toward extensive
purchases of raw materials"

Bright Outlook Foreseen
for Black Granite Quarry
Operations of Cold Springs
Company May Reach Big
Proportions.

Ouarrying of the black granite, south
of Ely, along state highway No. l, by
the Cold Springs Granite company may
reach major proportions, according to
information obtained from I. P. Kahl-
ert of the firm.
The company at present has but four
men at the quarry but contemplate in
creasing this number to 10 or II, Mr..
Kahlert said.
There is a demand for black granite
which can be built up to large vol
ume if the cost is not prohibitive," Mr..
Kahlert stated.
1--WE believe that it will be very de-
sirable structural granite" he said.
From all indications we will be able
to quarry it at reasonable cost, which
fronts and remodeling work in COM
will enable us to market it for store
petition with glass and other materials. y
The black granite along the Finland
road is the only granite of its kind in
the state and is one of few such
quarries of its kind in the entire
country. 1t has been used both as
monumental and building granite, and
was employed in the city building at
Cleveland and at the New York Worlds
Fair.
The Cold Springs Granite Company is
one of the largest monumental granite
manufacturers in the nation, and the
distribution of its product, which also
includes structural granite, is nation
wide.
It's finishing plant is located at Cold
Springs, in Stearns county, 80 miles
southwest of st. Cloud, where the rough
granite from the eight quarrieS which
the company operates is shipped About
$50 men are employed at the plant and
$50 in all the quarries.
QuarrieS operated include the Ely

Compliance in the LAUNDERING
Industry Sought in Drive
Now Under Way.

The wage and hour division last week
began a drive in northeastern Mime
sofa in conjunction with one carried
on throughout the country for COM
pliance in the lumber industry.
Inspectors have been assigned terri
tory and will work principally from
International Falls, Duluth, Cloquet,
and Brainerd. Every effort will be
made to inspect every employer in the
industry.
Many complaints have been received
concerning unfair, competition, Col.
Philip B. Fleming, administrator of the
division, states, and an attempt will
be made to clear up this condition
throughout the country.
"This drive is not primarily punitive
campaign" Colonel Fleming explained.
ct is being carried out in accordance
with the policy of the Division of CO.
operation with all those who show
willingness to come into compliance.
Where such willingness is not present,
legal steps will be taken to require
compliance.
"The first aim of the drive is the
elimination, as an excuse on the part
of a violator, of the factor of claimed
ignorance Every sawmill or lumber
yard visited by our inspector will be
examined to determine whether it is
now complying. Material explaining
the law in the simplest language will
be made available. Those desiring to
come into compliance will be assisted
Those who refuse to do so will be pro-
ceeded against"
The Fair Labor Standards Act re-
quires the wages of not less than 80
cents an hour be paid to all employees
engaged in the production of goods
which will move in interstate COM
merce or in work necessary to inter-
state commerce. Overtime pay at not
less than time and one-half must be
paid for all hours worked in excess of
AZ per workweek. The law has not
been obeyed by many employers in the
lumber industry, particularly in the
southern branch of the industry. The
drive begun today, however, is not
confined to the southern states, al
though greater concentrations of in
spectorS are being used in that area
than in the north and west.
Under the law, the Division can by
injunction proceedings tie up as "hot
goods" lumber which has been produced
or worked upon at sub-legal wages
This was done more than year ago
in Virginia. In that instance H. H.
Walton, owner and operator of plan
ing mill and lumber yard in Pendleton,
Louisa county, Virginia, was restrained
from selling in interstate commerce
some 100000 board feet of lumber, to-
gether with a quantity of railroad ties,

Men Surpass Women?

The male of the human species is
superior in intelligence to the fe-
male, according to Professor Will
liam Reuter-, Westminster college
psychologist. Reuter- asserts, on the
basis of tests, that it has been
proved that woman rarely becomes
successful through her own ability.
Men have always beaten women in
every field, even in their own do
main OF cooking and dressmaking,
according to Reuter- He said the
difference in innate intelligence be-
tween the sexes may be due to the
fact that the masculine brain is
larger.

Ringing down the curtain on an
ether successful exhibit, the 10Th
annual Southeast Alaska Fair ar
rived at a glorious finale early Sun
day morning as scores filed through
the doors of the huge building that
had swung open for three days.
Highlight performances were given
by the aerial Pats and their three
wonder dogs, and lively band music
was provided by the Juneau High
School music group. The exhibit
rooms were crowded and concessions
and novelty booths were well pa
tronized. Dancing was also fea-
ture, with Yves Barrett and his Or
chestra providing the music.
| Big event OF the night was the
Juneau Fire Department car award.
At press time today the 1910 Olds-
