All the main questions arising out of the general forestry problem are dis cussed, or at least touched upon, in the report of the Secretary of Agriculture on the southern Appalachian and White Mountain watersheds. The report was made for the purpose of informing Con gress as to the advisability of purchas ing and setting aside the regions men tioned as national forest reserves. Whatever Congress may do in the mat ter, the reiwt and all kindred discus sion of forests have great value in edu cating the country. On the proper care of forests In public and private hands depends primarily the supply of lumber for all future time. ■ The Insistence of experts on this point ha» stimulated In tereats In scientific cutting, the treat ment of land which has t*en cut over, the protection of standing wool and young growth from fire. More than this, we have learned the value of trees In preventing the washing away of val uable soil and the consequent clogging of watercourses. Without trees the rains wear the land down to the bone; the melting snows run unchecked in the spring and cause destructive floods; streams which furnish power to mills cannot have a regular flow, and reservoirs for public water supply can not be maintained. Moreover, entomol ogists tell us that a rapid diminution of forest trees In any region destroys the balance between tree life and the Insect life that preys upon It, and so Increases the burden on fruit and shade trees. The problem thus affects not only the lumberman and the Indus tries that depend on wood, but the whole community. Nature hns estab lished a relation between the forests of the North and the water that flows by New Orleans. Knowledge of this rela tion la a bond between the states be yond the power of politics to make or break. The public is becoming educated In the science of fonstry and In the greater science of mutual dependence and responsibility. Coquille Steam Laundry NOSLER A MORRISON, Props.

MUCH WORK, MANY IDLERS. 1JE recent great increas. lit the number of unemployed able-liodied men and the simul taneous cry from the farm districts for more help draw sharp attention to an In congruous condition. The problem of in ducing able-bodied men to remitin upon or return to the farms is one that becomes moi'e difficult, and yet more insistent, every day. It must be solved, somehow, if the prosperity of the country Is to continue It is little wonder that the President and his cabinet are forced to consider the subject, with a View 'to lending federal assistance in disposing of It. It would be poor bpsines» policy, and worse charity, to feed the "army of unemployed" in the large cities while the farms are lacking laborers. If any among the unemployed .are sick, or unable to stand the strain of hard work, let other provision be made for them; but there Is no excuse for the encouragement of Idleness and vice by feeding able-bodied fellows who will not go Into the country. Any uneniplo.v«!, able-bodied man who re fuses an opportunity to go Into the country to work, pre ferring to bask In the bright light of the city, should be convicted as a vagrant and made to build roads.— Washington Post. ÍT S2R PUBLIC SHOOL BUILDINGS. INCE the terrible Collinwood catastrophe testimony Is piling up to show that the de plorable conditions existing In that ill-fat«! School building prevail In many conimuul- ties and that little or no effort has been made to Improve them. But the frightful sacrifice of young lives has stirred the au thorlties to action, and. goaded by public sentiment, they are now strenuously seeking to remove the defects and minimize the dangers from fires. Rlehar.l L.'Humphrey, engineer in charge of the struc tural materials laboratories of the government, declares it Is providential that more of these holocnusts have not occurred. He says the conditions existing In th«» Col linwood school building are common to many public buildings throughout tlie country, and the first essential is to pass laws ptohibiting the erection of structures ex cept of the highest fire-resisting type. Drills in public schools are all right in their way, to teach self-control, but are quite useless in a great emergency. And the mere enactment of preventive laws is of no avail unless the people demand their enforcement.’ In the matter of wliools, theaters and other public In stitutions.

HERE is no reason why any- man In ths United States should starve, or even why any man should be out of employment, no matter what the conditions of business. Iu Louisiana, for example, there are 27,- 000,000 acres of land, of which only 6,000,- 000 are cultivated. Planters with large tracts stand rea«1y to aid every man who Is willing to help himself, They will sell him all the land he needs on ten years’ credit, or will allow him to farm on shares, providing him with a house, a horse and a mule, suffi- cient ae«I to plant crops, and provide farming Imple- luents: Yet -with the whole country full of such opportunities, large cities swarm with men who complain that they cannot get work, and municipalities are at their wits’ end to find some way to help the unemployed. The farms of the nation contain the only solution of this problem. — Dea Mollits News. o BOOTS-SHOES You can’t expect to get ,$2 worth for <1, but you can get your moneys worth at M.

UR annexation of Hawaii, our development of vast political ns well as commercial In terests ill the Pacific and the obvious desir ability of developing our coast defenses and naval auxiliaries according to a consist ent and adequate plan, all bespeak the need of making that finest natural harbor in the Pacific a place of service in peace and of security in war. Its value to commerce would be great. Its value in war would be inestimable, and It would, as has well been suggest«! In Congress, be one of the strongest pos- sible factors for the prevention of war in the Pacific Ocean.
