The office of public roads of the de
partment of agriculture is to co-oper
ate witn the torest service in drr.wing
up plans tor comprehensive systems of
roads and trails on national forests.!
For the last two years congress has
provided funds ior permanent improve
ments ou national forests, nud a large
part of the mouey thus made available
has been uud is being used for road
nud trail building. The umouut is too
small, however, in comparison with the
total area of the forests to make pos
sible more thau a very smalt beginning.
With thicker settlement nud increasing
use of the forests, good roads will be
come more and more u crying necessity.
The object of securing the help of
the office of good metis is to make the
work take the line that will not merely
serve temporary convenience, but also
count for most iu the end. By build
ing each year with reference to a care
fully worked out plan the danger of
indirected effort will be escaped.
During the present summer an en
gineer of the office of roads will go
over the ground on several of the for
ests and draw up plans, which will be
submitted to the forester, and will
servo to guide subsequent work. Where
the roads planned for cannot be built,
trails will, so far as possible, be made
to follow the courses laid out, with the
expectation that later they will he con
verted into roads.
The roads, trails, telephone lines and
lire lines already constructed on na
tional forests are proviug of great val-
both in the work of fire protection
and in serving the convenience of the
public. The further this work can be
carried the greater will be the useful
ness of the forests to the surrounding re
gions.
CHINESE SEE V ANT SAVES
AGED COUPLE FROM DEATH
SACRAMENTO, Cal., August (i.
John Tufts, a veteran of the civil war,
is in a serious condition tomiy irom
burns received in a. fire yesterday, when
his wife lost her life and he had a nar
row escape from death. That is is
ilive is due to the bravery ot Ah Lum,
a Chinese servant, who crawled through
the flames to rescue the old people.
The two old people lived on a ranch
few miles east of TiOomis. Tufts was
asissting his wife in the house, when
they upset a kerosene lamp, the wom
an was in hert night dress and was
burned from head to foot.
The Chinese heard the screams of the
old people and rushed into the house
and dragged them forth. Mrs. Tufts
died a few hours afterwards. The
house was completely destroyed.

and conveniently located for business men seeking home
sites close in. These fine lots are offered for sale cheap,
on good terms, and the owners are in position to offer
building inducements to anyone wishing to make the right
kind of improvements. "Why go out to the faraway
suburbs when such fine residence lots can be obtained at
prices ranging from
$200 to $350 per Lot
situated where an advance in price is assured, and where
the first benefit will be derived from the completion of the
railroad to the timber ?

Medford, and the present prices for these lots will look like
a veritable gift to the buyer in a year or two hence. For
