TO COM HAT DROUTH One of the brightest ideas brought forward in Washington in n long time seems to be that suggestion for a great "shelter belt" of trees to minimize drouth in western farm lands and to prevent dust storms. This scheme, now under considera tion by the president, is a fine example of the sort of thing that human beings can do to improve the climatic conditions under which they live. As tentatively outlined, it would call for the planting of a great belt of trees a licit 100 miles wide, and reaching from the Canadian border to the Texas Panhandle, stretching 1300 miles through the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, and Okla homa. This bolt would not Ik? solidly wooded. First there would be a strip of trees, then then another strip of trees, so on, throughout the 100 miles of its width. According to Charles Lsthrop Pack, president of th American Tree asso. elation, "such a program will go far soil, such as occurred during the recent drouth, and would add vastly to me leniiuy ot rami lands in tile Mountains to the Mississippi river. Certain It Is that we have been wasting our soil resources In almost as spendthrift a manner as we once wasted our timber resources. Vast areas of good farm land In the west will eventually become useless, through drouth and erosion, unless something la done. Establishment of a shelter belt like this would be a great step forward In conservation of an Irreplaceable natural resource. To be sure. It would cost money, but as long as we are spending as we are. It Is well to spend on things rth while. Mr. Pack estimates the cost of this project at I7a.000.00a. The Job would take from 10 to 12 years to finish, and would call tor services of thousands of workers. Money spent in sucn program wouia oe money to let the nation's granary turn Into a semi-arid waste land. China affords , a sulking example of the way In which good laud can became worthless when protective measures are not taken. No one wants to see the United States go the same way. , NORTHWEST APPLE OUTPUT INCREASED SPOKANR-AVaxh Federal crop es tixiatea releasee in July shew thai ALL-BRAN MADE HIM REGULAR AS CLOCK Delicious Cereal Corrected His Constipation We Tuote from his voluntary and enthusiastic letter: "After reading your advertisement.
