Don't Give Yourself Mf THE BANK Forest Reserves No Louger Applies It docs not seem, to be generally I nown that the term "Forest Ko Lcrves" is no longer legal or official; i nitio waB changed, by act of Congress March 4, 11)07,, to "National Forests" to indicate that these resources wore hot locked up as "reserves" for the distant future, but were to be ndnutii ntcrod for the greatest good of the ( rcntest number now. Tho first allotment of national for est money made to Oregon and Wash- I igton in 190(5, after the passage of the act which gave the states a share cf the nationnl forest revenue was $-7,-f,6T, for Oregon and $1,823, for Wash ington. In 1915, Oregon's share of this revenue was $19,(575, and Wash ington's was $:i7,I5. Tho constant ly increasing demand for natioal fo lest timber assures a much higher late of icrcase in the next few years, Mid ultimately the States will receive a large rovenue from this source. Of the approximately 190,000 acres of school land within the national fo icsts of Washington, 23:1,000 acres have thus far been cruised as a pre liminary step in the exchange of these lands for a solid block of nation dl forest land of equal area and equal vnlue. Upon the completion of the cmise of the school lands, it will then 1 a necessary to cruise an equal area of land to give to tho state in exchange for the school lands. The cruising work is being dono under a eo-oper-Ctivo agreement between the federal jjovernmoiit and the state of Washing ton. IDAHO'S FAMOUS HARMON SPOT The richest agricultural section of Idaho lies in the valley of Hoiso River in the southwestern part of the state Herein is located the great Boiso Gov- tinment irrigation project, embracing 1 13,000 ucres of exceptionally fertile hnd. : With nn expenditure of nearly ?15, C00.000 tho Reclamation Service has constructed one of the greatest irriga ... ,.,,. tion systems of tho world, including thu speculator Arrowrock dam 1150 feet high. Hundreds or miles ot canais have been laid out through the valley, two enormous reservoirs control the Hood discharge and u very prosperous community of 2,000, farm families are now occupying tho irrigated farms. The State of Idaho owns approximn tely 11,000 acres of land under the system, which it has agreed to subdi vide und sell at public auction. The Ktsitn Ijind Commission at Roise is making a strong bid for settlers in an announcement recently issued of a pu blic sale of nearly 500 farms on Te rnary 25. Under the terms of sale purchasers will have 10 years in which to pay with interest nt 0 percent. These farms include some of the choic est lands in the valley, located in the midst of a well settled agricultural community.

One of Ills creditors, to whom lie oweu ..-., hllIuiriHi dollars, after vainly trying to recover, sued him, and 1 was j directed to servo trie summons upon him I was totd thnt he was working on a bridge across n river. I went to Arch vllle, where he was engaged, and to the bridge, It wns a cantilever struc ture ncroNS n broad river and had not yet met In tho center. Parke hnd got wind of the suit brought ngalnst him. and n lawyer had advised him to keep out of the way so long as possible so that service upon him could not be secured. This I did not know; but. of course, I never gave away for what puriwse I wished to sec a person on whom 1 wished to serve a summons. Inquiring of a workman where 1 could Hnd Jason Parke, he looked at me suspiciously and asked what I wish ed or him. I replied that I had a , matter of business with him. Looking up at an iron structure extending from the farther shore uenrly to the middle of the river and a couple or hundred feet uliovo tho surface, ho pointed to a man oil tho outer extremity, saying that he was tho person I wanted. I was young, had n good head for1 Heights and saw an opportunity by climbing out to where the man was to corner him and Becuro service. Hiring ft ku , im,led ncroea 0le r,verf ciimneu tne untiK ana, waiting luiuiiu till I reached what would eventually be the tloor of the bridge, walked to the llrst pier, then worked my way to ward my quarry.

I wns qulto assured by this thut he did not suspect my pur pose unci climbed on, though every mo ment I dreuded dizziness. I hnd reach ed a Hliit not twenty feet from him when he stepped off the Iron beam on which he was standing and went down feet foremost Into the water below. I had been balked. Quite likely I'urke hnd received a signal rrom the man of whom I bud Inquired for him thnt I was coming and hnd thus been enabled to give me the slip. 1 hnd had enough of the Job climbing out to such a place and had no mind for following blm down Into the river. Tbo moment lie Jumped n boat put out rrom the shore, and the moment lie ruse to the surface ho swam toward It, was taken ulMinrd and carried to the opposite shore. My return to term llrmn was even more trying thnn my outward climb, ror I was becoming dizzy every mo ment. However, I reached tho pier without falling, mid after that the danger wns much less. On going down to the margin of tho river 1 found that the boat I hnd come over In was missing I did not doubt that every workman on the bridge wns In leiigue with hN fellows to warn Parke mid to render my duty ns dltll cult as possible After much delay 1 secured ferriage.

Nervous Women In Particular Should Be Kind to Themselves. One of the important things to know In life, especially If you nro a woman. Is how to let yourself alone.

Much of the blame for this state of affairs lies at tbo doors of the mothers. 1 The mistake Is In their training of , their children, especially their daugl. tcrs. They arc taught from earliest Infancy to be klud to others, to bear . with them, to forgive them, to hejp : them, but from birth to death no oue -ever tells them to be kind, also, to themselves. t The woman who nags herself can make herself more miserable than any ' one else possibly could. She can make her life more of a nlglitmare than any misfortune could possibly make It.

The low prices received for hogs du ring the past year have been discour aging to some of the hog raisers of the country. The hog should be a paying animal. He requires less la bor, less equipment, less capital, mak es greater gains on 100 pounds of concentrates reproduces himself fast er and in greater numbers, and re turns the money faster than any oth er farm animal. The fact remains however, thnt prices paid for bogs are low and discouraging. In spite of these prices the animal that possea- s the above advantages can still lift mortgages for his owner if the latter will study and apply some of the fun- lainental principles underlying tho business. To begin with, the best can be mado of a poor market by having the hogs ready at the timu when they are most wanted by the markeL This normal ly occurs during the spring and agnin during early fall. Tho September and October market is usually the highest How can tho farmer take advantage of these facts to the great est degree? In the first place tho hog wanted by t lie market usually runs between 175 and '225 pounds. Fortunately this is the most econo mical weight at which to disposo of the hog. Up to this point his gains arc made very cheaply. Beyond .100 pounds it is doubtful if under general conditions feeding can be made a pro fitable busincsss. The hog, if prop erly fed, can readily be put upon the market at 1200 pounds in six or seven months. Therefore have the pigs for the September market droppei in the latter part of February or during March. This will require that the breeding of the sows begin about the latter part of October or November first, continuing, if necessary, during the first week in December. The pigs for the April market should be drop ped in early September. These pigs can then be weaned before the No vember breeding season starts. To have the pigs dropped in September it will be necessary to breed the sows during May or enrly June. Under cerL-iin conditions it may be impossible to bring hogs to the 200 pound mark at six months, however, n great effort should be made to attain this goal, as time means money, nnd tho longer hogs aro hold tho greater will be the labor and overhead charges. The cost of feed for maintenance nlso will bo increased. Further, in connection with tho re lation of markets to hog raising, it will be noticed in going over the his tory of some of the leading markets for the last 10 years or so that there is a recovery every 2 to -l years. It might be well, therefore, to rememb er that this is a poor time to close out as a reaction may bo expected and the wise farmer will be ready when it nr rives. On the avernge farm there should bo radical improvement in bresding; and the euro of details during farrow ing, weaning, etc. There nre many complaints throughout die country cither of small litters or else a great mortality in pigs. By keeping the pro duction records of sows and selecting from those that produce und raise large average litters it breeder can raise to its most elllcient point the size of his litters. This probably runs between seven and eight to tho litter The hog raiser can prevent logsts, other than those cauved by illwuise, by providing proper shelter for thu sow at fut rowing time. In thu South thin nhuKor can be count rutted vtuy clumply, mid even in the North It imu be provided in most cno at a moder ate mat.
