PLAN TO CON- SERVE FORESTS A Birthday Party. At the home of Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Bagley in. Suver, Sunday, July the nineteenth was given a birthday party in honor of Miss Lillian Jones State co-operation with the National Conservation Commission seems to be an assured success, if the action of the governors thus far can be taken as an example of what is to follow. Both the commission and the White House are greatly encoura?ed at the responses of the governors who tteuded the White House conference. Seueral governors have already ap pointed state conservation commie Bions.' juanv ouiere nave written to he president declaring their in ten tion to do so at an early date, while still others promise to recommend vigorously in their forthcoming mes. suges to their respective legislatures the appointment of state commis sioners and active co-operation with tho national body. Within loss than thirty days after the appointment of the national conservation commissions, four governors had advised the president of similar state action by themselves. Governor Folk, of Missouri, who announced at the White House con ference his intention of naming a commission to deal with the natural resources of his state, has carried out his intention ana Missourrs com mission is soon expected to be at work. Montana and Oregon were among the first of the state in the field with conservation commissions. Under date of June 15, Governor Edwin L. Norris, of Montana, wrote the presi dent that he had appointed a com mission "to suggest to our next legislative assembly proper ways and means to conserve and protect the forests of Montana, and I anticipate that the commission so appointed by me will make valuable recommenda tions." ??! On June 19, Governor George B. Chamberlain, of Oregon, notified the president that he had already appoint ed "a committee on plans and pro gram for the movement of the con servation 1 of resources, and that this commission is to be enlarged and will act in co-operation with the national commission." Cherries this year are considered not up to averago but good quality and quantity was in evidence at the fair. A beautiful exhibit of flowers uni.
