Exchange With Govern

Forestry Laboratory.
DEAL STARTED IN 1912
ill
AND
1 School Fund Will Receive
Revenue for Timber Op
erations on Newly
Obtained Lands.
Tho creation of a state forest
in web turn Coos and Douglas
counties through the exchange of
iuolated school tracts for govern
ment lands is a deal which will
v prove of groat benefit to the state
v and to the government, it is be
lieved. The deal is one that has
been in process fo negotiation
since 1912 when the Oregon state
board of forestry proposed to the
government that exchanges be
tween school and national forest
lands 1)6 made so that holdings
might be grouped into solid blocks.
To fully understand this trans
action1 one must follow the history
of the Oregon school lands. The
state was given, through a federal
f grant, certain lands in each town
ship to be used to maintain the pub
lic school system. As these lands
were Bold to private individuals
or interests by the state tho money
went Into the school fund. Gradu
ally the better tracts were Bold,
leaving only the more inaccessible
and poorer tracts still in the hands
of the state. Then the government
created its national forests and in
cluded within the forest boundaries
wero many of these school tracts,
presenting an obstaclo to timber
' sales, reforestation and general ad
ministration of the forests.
Several years ago the state leg
islature passed an act authorizing
the exchange of state school lands
for " government lands of equal
value. The state and forest service
then docided upon the transfers,
but there arose differences regard
ing apprisals and valuations. The
ceedlugH and fori a few years-, the
matter progressed no further.
Then the matter was again taken
up, principally concerning 'lands
located within the Sluslaw nation?
, al forest. Tho government decld
K. ed to givo tho state what is known
as the Millicoma forest in exchange
for tho small tracts Insido the Sl
uslaw national forest and this was
agreed upon. This, however,
brought- another difficulty as. the
Millicoma forest was not all in one
block, due to the fact that thero
were several pieces of O. He C. land
mixed in. At two sessions of con
gress tho matter was considered,

ON BOUTS THIS SUMMER
Rickard Has Leading Fighters Signed
BY JIMMY POWERS
NEW YORK, Juno 17. Whor
cvor there's gold you'll find a good
miner.
A long, long tlmo ago a smart
fellow named Snookum Jim made
a strike on Bonanza Creek out in
the Klondike. Ho had a pal named
Tex, who didn't amount to shucks
as a panhandler. But Tex open
ed tho biggest gambling houso
north of C3 and became famed as
keeper of the ''Northern" saloon.
But deep down in his heart, Tex
longed to- be a -successful miner
like his pal, Snookum Jim. He der.it
cards, raked in chips 'and bought
whiskey in wholesale lots for many
a year.
Then ono day ho r.iadu a strike.
Ho mined a nifty little bit of gold
out: In, appropriately onough, Gold
field, Nevada. He promoted the
Guns-Nelson fight ane drew down
a lot of pay dirt.
"Thore's gold In them Ihur box
ing bills," mused Tex, whoso lust
name was Rickard.
This summer, to bring our little
yarn up to date, litis miner is
swinging his pick into the juiciest
senson of bouts the boxing woild
lias ever seen.
He will tako in, ho says, moro
than $2,000,000 in receipts.
He has certain nose-busters lin
ed up, among whom are Jack lo
laney, Mike McTigue, Jim Ma
lonoy, Jack Sharkey, Paulino u,cu
dum, not to nienlton Champion
Grno Tuniicy, who will draw a
steady strealn of dollars Into the
claims he has staked out in wooden
arenas.
During his life, Rickard esti
mates ho has taken in more than
$10,000,000 in boxing receipts,
ulono.
Flltoon of his fiuhts have drawn
gates ot morn than $li0.U(il. 1
more than WiO.Ooo, nine more
than $300,001, six more than SHV
000. four more limn $500,000. three
morn than $1,000,000, and one
twice that -sum.
More than half of these receipts
have beon clear profits.
The velvet In other sports has
been nearly as high. Tho last six
day bike race, for Instance, drew
receipts of 400.ono and his 'ex
pense were only $100,000.

One of the many decorations
and honors to be bestowed upon
Captain Lindbergh at Washington
Is the Smithsonian Institution's
prized Langley Medal, for "aero
dromlcs." ..Llndy will be only the
fifth recipient of this rare award. ,
and at the last session an act was
passed whereby the exchange of O.
& C. lands was 'approved on tho
same basts as forest lands.
The Btnte Is giving-up 118 Isolat
ed and separate tracts of timber
located In the Sluslaw national for
est and adjacent to that reserve
and is taking a solid block of tim
ber covering 70,500 acres. The
tract Is divided almost equally be
tween Douglas and Coos counties
the north boundary being on the
Umpqua river, while the western
line roughly parallels the Pacific
ocean about eight miles 'inland.
The formal applications by the
state wero filed with the Roseburg
land office yesterday and are. being
checked over today. 1 he state was
represented by G. O. Brown, clerk i
of the state land board.
The state law, providing for the
transfer of the lnnds, provides that
the actual administration of tfio
state forest shall be in the hands
of the Oregon state board of fores
try, while tho technical manage
ment will bo Willi the state school
of forestry, maintained by the
Oregon Agricultural college. Un
der theso arrangements the state
obtains the services of technical
men to handlo the forest manage
ment at a low cost, while the col
lege, will be furnished with a prac
tical laboratory where experiments
may be carried on under natural
conditions and upon an unlimited
scalo. So far as is known there is
no school of forestry in the world
with such a forest upon which
students may ho trained. i .
'Tho -forest alRO offers an oppor
tunity for considerable revonue to
tHo state. It is estimated that
about 1100 acres can be cut over
yearly, giving an annual ylold of
almost one million board feet. Tho
state may sell this timber and uso
