here Saturday and Sunday nights In

dience enjoyed a good laugh.
Next Friday night tho company
repeats "My Frlond Brown" and as

PROGRESS II
FOREST IM
Government's Improvements
In Reserves of Much Inter
est to Oregon.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Dec. 28.
Oregon has a natural Interest In that
part of tho report of tho Secretary
of Agriculture which Is devoted to
permanent Improvements on tho
government's national forests. Such
work as the construction of miles of
road and trail, teldphone lines, drift
and pasture fences, ranger houses
and barns, has opened up and Im
proved many square miles of torri
torj In the thirteen national forests
in the state, and for these and sim
ilar purposes $G5,19L33 was spent
during the last fiscal 'Year.
Four hundred thtFtysoVen miles of
trail and twenty-four Wiles of road,
wore built, 7S miles of telephono
lines wero strung, and tho forest
ranges were Improved by the con
struction on thirty-nine miles of pas
turo fence. During the year twenty
three houses, to be used for ranger
quarters, and two barns and two
corrals, for rangers' horses woro
built. Four bildgos were construct
ed and various misocjlaneous im
provements were made. In speaking
of tho permanent improvement work
on all thd National Forests, the Sec
retary of Agriculture has tho fol
lowing to say In his annual roport:
"Tho agricultural appropriation
act of 1008 included an Item of
$500,000, which was mado available
for permanent Improvement work on
the natlonai forestB. The object of
this work is to help open up tho for
ests to inore use and proyldo means
for their belter ftnd more economical
protection, through tho supply of
means of Communication and trans
portation, well-located field quarters,
fire lines, fences to assist In tho
handling of stock and watering
places. These improvements aro es
pecially investments of capital,
which add greatly to tho value and
usefulness of the forests.
"Tho work completed during tho
year included 3,400 miles of trails,
3,200 miles of telephone lino, 100
miles of wagon road, 40 miles of firo
lino, 250 bridges, 550 cabins and
barns, nnd COO miles o'f pasture and
drift fences. In addition to tho sum
provided by the specinl Improvement
fund, over $100,000 from the gon
oral fund of the service wns turned
from current expenses to defray tho
cost of this work, but much of tho
work planned and urgently needed
could not bo carried out because
there was nothing with which to pay
for it.
"Detailed estimates covering a to
tal of $2,000,000 for permanent Im
provements, which It was desired to
comploto in 1909, wero submitted to
tho congress. They showed for tho
entire amount exactly what It was
proposed to undcrtako on each na
tional forest, and at what cost. Tho
amount provided by tho npproprlai
tion was $COO,000. For 1910
estimates will again bo submitted for
permanent Improvements, tho cost of
which agiegato $974,981. These es
timates aro tho result of specific and
fully Itomized plans, which aro on
filo In tho forest service. They aro
In no sonso a request for a lump
sum, tho spending of which remains
to bo planned In detail after appro
priation Is made. It Is of urgent Im
portance that this work should bo
provided for.
"Though the construction of per
manent Improvements qntall tho
need of provision for their main
tenance, tho added ofllc'ency of tho
forests as economic resources secur
od through theso Improvements rich
ly lopays tho cost. With tho na
tional forests as with any other re
sources, tholr returns depend on tho
oxtont to which development tnke3
placo through judicious outlays of
capital. If the land Is not to remain
a wlldornoss It must bo made sor
vjceablo to tho needs pf civilized man
by constructive oxpondlturos,
Gorman cough syrup for colds and
coughs at tho RED CROSS.
