FORESTRY OX PRIVATE LANDS. COOS BAY Is just now the center of a notable forward movement In the conservation of the coun try's natural resources. C. A. Smith has just undertaken reforestation on the largest scale ever attempted in the United States by a private individual. The science of forestry has, so far, been applied al most exclusively to tho tracts held In the name of the public. Less than 1 per cent of the private forests, ac cording to a bulletin just Issued by the government, has the advantage" and the protection which the science can give. Yet three-fourths of the entire forest area of this country Is in the hands of private owners. The business of lumbering has been one largely of speculation, the purchase of lands or stumpage, the rapid hewing o trees without thought or consideration of the young tiees Injured upon the trails or by the falling of matured growths, arid the marketing of tho logs at tho earliest moment possible. When all tho available wood has -been cut away and the land sold at reasonable prlco the lumberman's Interest censes. Ho shifts his axes and saws to-new ground. Mr. Smith has made a departure In this lino also. About a year ago Mr. Smith stated to the writer that he ex pected this new mill of his on Coos Bay to be In operation -100 years from tho present time. It Is In keeping with this wlso and far-seeing policy that tho work of refor ostratlon has been undertaken 'on such a large scale. Naturally while tho business was of a speculative character tho lum berman could not bo expected to stu dy scientific forestry which Is not a thing of quick profits, but of slow regular returns. Tho lumberman must think of tho fire risks, market fluctuations and tho chances of har assing taxes. But changes nro com ing and Coos Bay Is fortunate In hav ing a pioneer of tho new conditions locnted here. Tho conservation of tho tlrnbor resources makes for con tinued and perpotual prosperity on Coos Bay. A MOSSBACK, gentle reader, Is a cross between the fifth cen tury and fifteenth. He Is found In a fossilized form In nearly every city In the United States and still lives. He raises his rents, de tests a boom, loves to h.-ive other peo ple bear all the taxes, hates to have a new enterprise despises anything which smacks of progress and won't help a newspaper boom Its own town. There are several varieties of mossbacks, but none of much use to a town. They are as the drones to a hive of bees and tho industrious bee, the live 'business man, should avoid these drones and patronize those who are an advantage to the ulace they reside In." THE ItlSi: IX PRICES. T' THE ESSENCK OF PROGRESS. NEVER BEFORE In tho history of this people, has there- been such a series of great and pop ulnr meotlngs In the Interest of hu mnn progress along all lines as have takon pluco this your. The great congresses, devoted to sclonce, health, civic purity, and all tho 1m presslvo Issues that move the people of the United States, havo had their day this year, and tho results aro being felt, for pood, all over tho land. Theso conventions and wide discussions of the llvo matters be hind thorn, have afforded an extra ordinary Intolllgouco In tho popular conception of tho truths Inhorent In thorn nil, and tho people at largo are becoming bettor posted dally on all that offoets thorn seriously. It Is n flno school, and will do more to cul tivate and direct tho right and rlghtoous exprosslon of public thought than anything ever attempt HE UPWARD movement of prices has continued to a point that attracts the attention of students of such dry subjects. The heavy production of gold Is put for ward by some authorities as the principal reason for the persistency of the advance, but the trouble with this theory Is the difficulty of prov ing, or disproving It. In most cases it Is unnecessary to go so far afield, as a deficiency In the supply explains the high price to which wheat ad vanced, and wheat may be taken as a fair example of the commodity In world-wide demand and affected by world-wide conditions. In most of the markets there are speculators always ready to take ad vantage of every opportunity to ad vance prices and push them beyond the proper limit, and there are trusts and associations of merchants. wholesale and retail, and producers' syndicates, more or less steadily en gaged In plans to Increase profits, arid it would be strange Indeed if prices showed no signs of the In fluence of all theso agencies. Of course theso price-fixing schemes, and tho profit-fixing schemes also, prove more or less short-lived, but for a time they exert their influence, being more successful at the revival of prosperity than soon after a panic. If prices are too high the con sumption will soon show it, and then they will either cease to rise further or decline, whereas if tho rise Is ful ly justified both by tho statistics of supplies and the prosperity of tho public, It should present no very material obstacle "to the growth of retail trade. The only limit to the prices of merchandise is the wil lingness or ability of tho public to pay the rlso. Sometimes it has the power, but not tho inclination. Sometimes It Is willing, but not cap nble. Wo aro probably too near the panic for tho world public. to take normal quantities of stnplo goods at high prices, and there is no evldenco to show that even our own public could do so. 'if we aro to see un era of high prices Injurious to tho interests of people of ilxed in comes, it will probably be a brief one, owing to the consequent Inter ference with the normal consump tion, unless the gold output is at tho bottom of the whole trouble, and, In that caso, tho fled incomes will bo readjusted to tho now conditions by a gradual rlso of wages, Interest, etc., but In the uieantlmo tho dis tribution of merchandise would bo restricted nioro or loss. : WITH THE t t TOAST AND TEA t ntnnmttttttittnttxtt What makes a girl pretty is the way she can look when you tell her she Is. FINANCIAL A young widow is awful smart to look so sad when a lot of old cats are around. You can't help being nice to a man who is a bigger fool than you are and admits It. A woman can value a man's merit when he hasn't any; a man can't a woman's when she has. Miss Graham has returned and has resumed her regular work in drawing and painting. "What does your husband like for his breakfast?" "Anything I haven't got in the house." . Some Coos Bay women's Idea of a "hard and unfeelin" man Is one who does not look sad when some girl gets up and screeches "Home, Sweet Home." the "My tombstone ought to tell truth," He said. Folks thought him daffy Because he wished an epitaph, Devoid of epi-taffy. There are lots of Coos Bay women who know how Cook and Peary feel. Many a time they have had to cut for the head prize, but they always looked pleasant and said nothing mean for publication while doing U. Surely the politeness that attended the critical moment when a painted plate was In question, is possible when It Is only a pole. HINTS TO HOY HUNTERS. Whllo tho young boy of tho city learns his A 11 C's, tho boy of tho California backwoods Is learning tho laws of the trail. Later he, too,' may study letters, but not until ho has thoroughly mastered tho signs of tho woods, says an exchange. Long before ho Is 10 ho has hunt ed alone, learned to tako caro of himself In the forests, whero thero are no paths except thoso made by wild animals, and he has stored away In his brain countless formu lae for tnking caro of himsolt and tho tracking of game, Theso primitive rules might fill a book, but If you wero to spend a day on tho trail with 'a California boy ,thoso would probably bo the first bits of woodcraft kuowlodgo ho would impart to you; Always carry your gun against vmir limit' Inn imnnr nntf nf tl.n stock in tho right hand, tho loft hand covering the trigger and ham- How careless people are! We saw a man In a store this morning buying a pair of suspenders, who said he had been trying to think of them for two years; he had needed a pair for two years, but always for got, when down town, to buy them. Is It any wonder that this sort of a creature occasionally forgets to kiss his wife before 'leaving the house in tho morning? mer, and the barrel resting In tho hollow of the left arm. Deer tracks and pig tracks are al most alike, but the split in the pig's footprints are wider than In those of the deer. A deer being trailed by hounds al ways makes for high ground. If you tree a wildcat,' never stand under It. If you aro chased by a wounded bear, run along the side of a hill and upward, and he cannot follow The bear will always drop do.wn ward. If you pitch your camp in a dry creekbed, never sleep under the steep bank, which Is usual on one side. Animals could jump on you from the ledge. Camp below a drinking pool, not above It, If you aro after game. Moss is always thickest on that part of a tree trunk facing south. If you wish to find your direction, that is invariably a sure sign. A rocky country Is usually infest ed with snakes. Where snakes are plentiful, loop a hairy rope about your camp. Tho snake will not cross it. No snake likes being tickled in this fashion. Never let your game hang out over night In tho moonlight. Tho moon's rays poison the meat. Nover eat jackrabblt without care fully examining the meat for water blisters. Never eat jackrabblts at all during 'tho lato summer If you can help It. Novor feed your dog tho entrails of your game. Never lean a loaded gun against a treo trunk, and don't leave your gun nround unloaded. Hang it up by tho strap. Bo careful how you approach a buck deer that has apparently been shot dead. A deer can kick and gore like a mnd steor when he Is wounded, and he sometimes plays 'possum. ' Always cut tho throat of gamo you kill and let It bleed.
