During the 191S period a total of 94, 220.46 wasi taken In and during the 1913 period the receipts were $$4,490.45, or a Iosh of $278.99 for the 1913 period.

The Depart ment of Agriculture, under the food and drugs art has recently been investigat ing a new trick of certain patent med icine and proprietary medicine vendors wh(h It l.t believed is deceiving a large number of people Into spending money for patent medicines under the imprest-Ion that they are getting regular phy sicians' prescriptions for nothing. - In a number of publications the de partment finds advertisements are ap pear!:.;; which state that the man or Woman whose name is attached was saved from death from one of a num ber of aerious diseases through some wonderful prescription given to htm or her by a regular physician ot unusual ekill who will not allow his name to be used because of medical ethics. The advertisement states that the Writer feels it to be a duty to communicate this invaluable recipe to humanity In order to save them from similar ills. The offer is then made to supply this prescription without oharge to any one who will address a postcard to the ad vertiser. People who' do not stop to wonder who Is tf. pay for the advertisement and the return postage and writing of the prescription are caught by this fra'id and ask for the prescription. In due course . regular precrlptlon Is returned. -This contains a number of ordinary Ingredients and then under a technical name will call for a large proi-ortlon of some patent medicine or proprietary drug. The recipient takes this to a drug store to be filled and the )rugglft finds that he haa to buy oma of this patent preparation in or der to Ml it. He, thererore, haa to order a- large package or bottle of it and to nVakv a profit must charge the customer a .pood stiff price for filling the pre-n-riutlon. The customer, of course, gets what is In effect simply a patent med icine which, save that It bears a drug iriisrg )Aet ami a proscription number, is the tame as a patent medicine sold under the maker's own label and In the maker's own bottle. . Th government cannot reach these people under either the food and drugs act or the postal laws, because the rchfiiif 1 so planned as to evade gov rrnnii nt laws. The deception and mis representation appeals in advertise ments, drculai-H, letters, etc., separate from the package and the medicines are seldom sent through the mallR. The Ocnt the department can do, therefore, Is to warn the people to be particularly KuHptcioua of those who spend money for edvertlsing space, postage, and let ter writing, seemingly out of their love for humanity. In all these cases there IS a profit-making scheme hack of the eecn.ing philanthropy. FORESTRY PROFITABLE Government Owns Only One Fifth of Country's En tire Area, Washington, Nov. 27. After the re maining virgin timber of the I'nlted State is exhausted, forest supplies will have to coma from national forests, state foronta. or from privately-owned land; but federal and state forests, ac cording to H A. Sterling, director of the American Forestry association, con stitute only one-fifth ot the total foreat area of the country. "On private land," he says, "the timber of the future will be either mirh growth which has sprung up voluntar ily on cut-over land and has managed to escape fire, or that from areas which have been devoted to forest production as a business enterprise. Ho far the practice of private forestry has been mainly confined to small operation, often more for pleasure than for prof It. An intensive forest policy on a xcale large enough to establish its commer cial feasibility haa not yet been under taken. "Private forestry In the United States has been retarded by many Influences among which the more important are large stored-up timber supplier, com paratively low stumpage and lumber values, lack of market for many minor forest products? and a public sentiment which has not icallied that forest pro duction is essentially the growing of successive crop. "Present tendoncles In private fores try indicate a iuor logical development than at any time since foreat conser vation became an Issue. Instead of at tempting to put immediately Into effect complete policies and an intensive man agement which nre scientifically correct, the things now being attempted are the logical etepa which will ultimately lead to systematic, long-time management of private forest lands. The private, owu er is learning that fire procteetlon Is possible and that it pays. With this fact established, other things will be taken up ui:d worked out tint il the pro gressive tlmberland owner will find that j he Is practicing the kind of forestry which pays in this country. "in a word, private forestry, us it can' be properly practiced In the I'nited States today, Is not the intensive for estry of Germany, but the application of protective and close utilization measures with provisions for natural regeneration. These principles, applied us economic conditions permit, will build up the art and practice oft foiestry America.'' of the owenra of the paper.
