frAy OF WASHINGTON TO
C. E. Spence. master of the State
grange, has notified ! the local grange
organisations throughout the state that
the railroads willl not grant the one and
one-third' to the annual convention at
Bend, June 1, on the ground that the
Patrons of Husbandry, as the grange is
officially known, -is not a charitable,
patriotic or u fraternal organization. 1
This was somewhat of a surprise, be
cause the grangers -.have always con
sidered their organization was all three,
and have been, accorded such courtesies.
The fact that! orders like the Odd Fel
lows and the Shriners have been given
special rates i this year, "riles" the
grangers. At Lent grange Saturday, a
committee of 1 three was appointed to
take action with like committees to at
tempt to get a reversal of the ruling.
W, W. Greeny delegate from Evening
Star to the State grange, announced he
would make the Bend trip by automo
bile and estimates that it will not cost
any more for himself, and wife than to
pay two fares both ways. Several other
delegates are considering such a trip,

Thornton T. Munger in American
Forestry Discusses Several So
lutions of Forest Problem. ,
An j article on "Forestry in : the
Douglas Fir Region," by Thornton
T. Munger of the forest service, is
contained! in the April number of
American! Forestry. Munger jrives
statistics on the, acreage and board
feet; of Douglas fir timber still ex
tant in Oregon and Washington and
discusses nieans necessary to insure
natural reforestation, I which con
dense jto )9 per cent fire protection.
The jsil-Hcultural prescription for the
practice bit forestry in ' Douglas fir re
gion, says : Munger,. condenses . to this :
Log ' clean ; . leave occasional defective
trees as seeders; fall the snags; burn
the slashing broadcast the first spring
or fail after logging;.' keep subsequent
fires out of areas once burned.
The! private timberman,; says Munger,
is not pntefested in caring for cut-over
land which will yield a crop in 80 or
100 years with a fair rate of interest
if protected. , He is-, embarrassed by a
surfeit ;of virgin: timber which is expen
sive to carry. Mia business is gauged
on a quicker turn over; his capital Is
needed fori present operating expenses.
Certain economic obstacles, such as the
insecurity bf the 'timber crop f ronj fire
and the existing system ot taxing' both
land and the growing crop annually-,
also inhibits the practice of forestry on
private: land. -
Munger discusses several solutions of
fered of the forest problem of the Doug
las fir region and arrives at, the pre
requisites:! Public classification of tim
bered and I cutover lands to determine
what are agricultural and what should
be dedicated to permanent forest pro
duction ; , tax reform which will remove
the current I burden of carrying: 'imma
ture 1 forests ; stricter enforcement of the
present good forest fire laws ; additional
financial appropriation by the states and
federal government to promote forestry
practice; cooperative assistance from
appropriations to private owners - who
agree to manage .according to a certain
standard, lands that have, been classi
fied as permanent forest ground.
F. A. Elliott, state forester, also has
an article jin the same publication on
"Airplane Patrol of the Forests," giving
a i resume j of the accomplishments of
last - season " and the efforts that have
been brought about by organizations
and individuals to secure the much
needed patrol f Northwest forests this

When Martha Florine, one of the wild
animal educators with the Al O, Barnes
four ring .wild ' animal circus,, which
exhibits in Portland on May 17-18, enters
the steel arena with 80 lions, a whip is
apparently j her : only protection or de
fense, but the whip Is nothing ; she de
pends on a piercing eye, and that inde
finable something that commands obedi
ence and' anticipates the animal's ag
gressive movements, and negatives
them. . 1
She is a mere slip of a girl, hardly
out of her teens, but is one of the
world's foremost lady lion tamers, fear
less of all consequences.
Miss Grace Marvel is another wonder
in wild animal subjugation; she has a
bunch -of tigers ; that she foxtrots with,
and they seem to love their work, as
their ! sinewy forms sway at her ' com
mand. . '
Altogether the Barnes circus exhibits
1200 animal actors, starting with "Alice
in Jungleland," an extravaganza.
