Continued deficit spending is a certain contribution to imitation. The speaker believes we do not want a stable society which would leave no latitude or profit for honest effort. Though New England has fewer war monuments of factories suitable olny for war production than many other sections of the country, industrial cities in New England do face and will continue to face the problem of the North ern New Englander who has spent ! war years in this area and de- veloped mechanical knowledge and training. This knowledge and high earnings will keep him in the indus trial area with a natural reluctance to return to the lower comparative earnings of his former occupation.

Elliott s. Boordmon of Boston Addresses Accountants on Future Business Outlook

Elliott s. Boardman, manager oj the Statistical Division of the Fed eral Reserve Bank of Boston speaking at the opening meeting of the Hartford Chapter of tie Ma tonal Association of Cost Account ants at the Pennington Country club, Tuesday evening, predicted a mixed outlook for l946. He expects the coming year will have con- tinued rise in prices as was wit messed after the first world war when prices rose more in the one and Q half years between Nov. II, 1918, and 1920, than during the two full years.
 MT. Boardman described the &C., tivities of the Federal Reserve Banks of Boston and its efforts through research to aid business, chart economic trends and manu- featuring activities as well as the usual banking functions. He paid tribute to Ralph Flanders, president of the bank, for his leadership and activities as an industrialist, in- VSSSSA &AAA OAAOGb uL ULlC NUHI@ mittee of Economic development. MT. Boardman displayed to the ac- countants 8 series of charts pre- pared by the banks research de- partment, showing the trends of industrial production, durable goods and non-durable goods and min- erals, wholesale prices, factory em- ployment and payrolls. National income in relation to national debt was discussed in detail by MT. Boardman. Our national income in 1920 was 30 billion dollars and 16O billion dollars in l944 and to meet our federal spending expect ancy (20 to 30 billion), a national income of l40 billion will be need- ed. Our national debt was 50 million In 1920 as againts 263 billion today. The next decade, continued MT. Boardman, will probably witness the greatest federal spending in the his- tory of this country barring the war years

This is the time of the year to
purchase pine and black locust seed
lings and set them out. Pine forests
with satisfactory stand of big trees
protected from fire will grow from
$500 to $4.00 worth of timber per
year.
Mr.. John Word of Owens Wells
community has set up 20-acre block
of pine trees as demonstration and
is going to follow recommendations
of the Extension Department in its
management. His forest was inspect
ed during the past week and trees
marked that should be taken out.
John has his own sawmill and will
use some of the largest trees for saw
logs. Some of the long straight ones
will be used as. poles and some Of
the inferior ones plus the tops of the
saw logs will be used for pulpwood.
Some timber will be taken out OF
this forest every two or three years,
depending on the market.
Most Of the posts used by farmers
in Holmes county break off at the
top of the ground, in from 3 to S
years, due to decay. This is due
largely to the farmers using timber
that should not be used for this pur-
pose It is easy to grow black locust
posts for the farm in from to 10
years depending upon quality of soil
the trees are planted. You can pur-
chase 1000 black locust seedlings fol
$3.50, plus postage, which is suffi-
cient to set out one acre, by placing
