MACHINE MARKS sUNPowER

TUCSON. Ariz. --(P)- Getting
up with the sun is no chOre for
Percy he's a pyrheliometer hitch
ed up to a mechanical brain. If
Percy is one of the up-and-at-'em
sort, it's because his father, Dr. A.
Richard Kassander of the Univer-
sity of Arizona's Atmospheric Ply
sizes Institute, is such a lazy fellow
with the increase in interest in
using solar energy" Kassander
said, lit was logically within our
duty to begin recording the suns
energy. We didn't have much time
to spend on it, so, strictly out Of
laziness, we made it automatic"
The device lives at the top of a
pole, like many others of it's kind
throughout the nation. What makes
Percy different is the fact that he's
hitched to an adding machine. Kas-
sander says its the only hOokup of
the kind in the world.
AS the sun rises each day, Percy
springs into action without a yawn.
The device at the top of the mast
catches the suns rays, and sends
down an electrical impulse that is
converted by an electronic device
into neat figures on the adding ma
chine.
Every two minutes the adding
machine totals up the amount of
solar energy, then it marks a sub
total at the end of 20 minutes.
AT the end of the day Percy to-
tails the days solar energy and
turns in for the night.
Does such a devoted worker get
a vacation on cloudy day?
Not a chance, because the suns
energy comes through the clouds
anyway and Percy is on the job
measuring 1t.

FIRST u. S. RANGER STATION WAS BUILT In
MONTANA In 1899
Alaska to Puerto Rico and into 4s
By CONG. LEE METCALF

Alaska to Puerto Rico and into 4s
states.
From handful of men with saddle
horses, shovels and axes, which the
early-day rangers had to buy them
selves, the service has grown to a
huge land management, research and
educational agency with more than
$500 full-time employees and twice
that many during the forest fire sea-
son.
These employees have done, and
are doing, tremendous job on the
multiple use of our national forests.
Millions of acres have been replanted.
The annual cut of timber under sus-
tanned yield management has in
creased to more than 5 billion board
feet from about million in 1905.
Watersheds are being protected. The
forests have provided forage for a
sizable part of the nations meat sup
ply. Recreation use has shown tre-
mendous increase-to 40 million
visitors year from less than / e mil
lion in 1912.
Receipts from our national forests
have gone up from S73,000 in 1905
to S73 million today.
There is still big job to be done.
Facilities and services are needed for
the increased recreation use of our
forests by the people who own them.
The timber harvest can be increased.
Watershed protection must go for
ward as we become more dependent
on water resources. Grazing use of
the forests can be expanded if the
government in its capacity as landlord
meets its responsibility for needed
improvements on public property.
In the past SO years, the Forest
Service has built a foundation for
greater achievement in the future.
The service deserves special stamp
commemorating SO years of con-
servation. If such stamp is au-
thorized, it should carry a picture
of the Alta Ranger Station.

States HUGE
COAL Reserve:
MARKETABLE?

More than 491 million tons of
strippable Ignite reserves west of
the Yellowstone river in Dawson
and Richland counties, has been
mapped by the Geological Survey.
A large potential market for fuel
| is foreseen in the Pacific Northwest,
where population and industry have
greatly increased in recent years.
The areas described in this report
could supply much of the demand of
the Pacific Northwest, because they
contain abundant supplies of easily
obtainable Ignite and in addition have
excellent railroad connections with
the northwestern states.
The deposits are near the Yellow
stone river, which contains water suf-
ficient for most Industrial purposes,
including the manufacture of syn
thetic liquid fuels.
The coal occurs in three deposits
in the Tongue River member of the
Fort Union formation. Of the esti-
mated 491 million tons, 209 million
tons is under less than 60 feet of
overburden, 1872 million tons is under
so to 80 feet, and 80 million tons in
under go to 120 feet. The beds of
Ignite are 10 to 43 feet thick, and
the areas mapped, which include ap-
proximately 1855 acres in all, are
particularly well-suited to large-scale
stripping operations.
The report includes index maps
showing the distribution of the lig-
mite; several bed and thickness maps
of the strippable deposits; tables
showing the strippable reserves of
Ignite, the annual discharge of the
Yellowstone river by months; analy-
sis of samples of several Ignite beds
from the area; and text describing
the geology distribution of the de-
posits.
The report, titled "Three Deposits
of Strippable Ignite West of the
Yellowstone River, Montana" by
William C. Culbertson, has been pub
lished as Bulletin 995-H of the Geo
logical Survey. Copies may be pur-
chased from the Superintendent of

A letter from an old friend reminds
me that the first ranger station was
built in western Montana nearly Sc
years ago.
What better picture on a commem-
orative stamp celebrating the 50th
anniversary of the Forest Service and
accomplishments in the field of con-
servation than one of that little cabin? !?
It was built at Alta, in the upper
West Fork Canyon so miles south
Of Hamilton in June 1899 by couple
of pioneer rangers, H. G. Tuttle and
n. E. Wilkerson.
These men were among the dedi-
Gated handful who worked for con-
servation against almost impossible
odds. At one time, according to a
story in a 1888 issue of the Great Falls
Tribune, these two early-day rangers
had 100000 acres Of land under their
supervision.
One day, Wilkerson recalled IN the
Tribune story of 20 years ago, he and
Tuttle received orders to burn all
the brush in their area. "All we could
brush along some of the trails.
lit was In 1891 that the federal
government first moved against the
wholesale destruction of our dwin-
ding forests. That year congress
authorized the president to set
aside "forest reserves" TO protect
the remaining timber on the public
domain and insure regular flow
of water in the streams
President Benjamin Harrison Gre
ated the first reserve, the Yellowstone
Park Timberland, and placed it under
the administration of the land office
in the Department of Interior. Before
his term had ended, he had set aside
13 million acres. President Cleveland
added more than 20 million.
In 1898, Clifford Pinchot, the great
conservationist, was appointed to
head the Forestry Division. When
President Theodore Roosevelt signed
a bill creating the Forest Service in
1905, Pinchot became Chief Forester.
One of the first directives he sent
out was one that our forest reserves
were to be managed so as to provide
'the greatest good to the greatest
number of people in the long rum.
The Forest Service has come a
long way. Our system of more than
$50 national forests, in which each
one of us is a shareholder, covers
1S1 million acres-reaching from

SAYS TREASURY WILL
URGE HIGHER COOP TAXES

ST. LOUIS CNS)-President Eli
senhower's top financial advisor is
almost certain to recommend high
er taxes on farmer and consumer CO
ops, the POST-DISPATCH said it had
learned April %.
In Washington story, the paper
said the Treasury Department, under
George M. Humphrey, "is completing
studies" of co-ops, credit unions,
building and loan associations, and
mutual savings banks.
Final conclusions haven't been
drafted. But it's known that treasury
officials are sympathetic to COM
plants of private businessmen and
commercial bankers"
Their proposals will go to the House
Ways and Means Committee this ses-
soin, the Post-Dispatch said.
