VALLEY GARAGE It Pays to Use Orchard Brand Arsenate of Lead Either Paste or Dry Farm Bureau Co-Op Exchange WASHINGTON', April 12. Due to the efforts of l:n:tcd States Senator Charles L. .McNary, the annual federal appropriation for the prevention of forest fires has been increased in the sum of $300,000. Last year the amount was 1100,000, and in inakini; the appropriation for this year the house increased it 125,000. When the appropriation reached the senate, Senator McNary offered an amendment Increasing it to $025,000, but althoiiKh it was adopted by that body, the senute and house conferees reduced It to $400,000. The appropriation will be used In co-operutlou with the states in pre' venting and combatting forest fires, the states matching the government allotment on u &0-D0 basis. Twenty-nine' states have signified their Intention of co-operating, Ore gon being amouK them. "This appropriation does not mean that the federal government relieves the owner of valuable timber from proteotine tola property," said Senator McNary today In discussing It. "In the allotments to the states the chief emphasis Is placed upon using the federal fundi) so as to extend the protection organization of the state to culled. ioKged-ol'f and other denuded areas which contain little or no tim ber of present commercial value, and whose owners have the least Incentive to Incur the cost of protection. These are the very' areas whoso protection is of the utmost Importance In the general public Interest, because upon them ntUHt we depeiid for our supply of timber after the present virgin for ests are exhausted. "We have used up three-fourths of our original forests, anil the supply of timber remaining Is becoming less and less adequate for the require ments of the country, both In quan tity and In location. Sixty-one per cent of what is left lies west of the Creat Plains, whereas the bulk of the lumber and paper . consumption is east of the Great Plains. More than 50 per cent of the standing timber today is found In the three Pacific Coast stutes, and lil per cent Is found in that great western country lying west of the Mississippi river. "Our eastern forest states ono after another have been cut out and ceased to be important producers of timber because their vlrigin forests have been but partially and inadequately replac ed by second growth after logging. With the exhaustion of these old sources of lumber, paper and other forest products, and with the Increas ing distance which lumber must bo hauled from the sawmill to the con sumer, much of It now across the with of tho continent, there Is a grow ing scarcity of forest products, which in no great length of time will become critical. Markets may fluctuate one way or another, owing to financial and other temporary conditions, hut be hind it lies a steady decrease in the supply of timber, which has a very vltul bearing upon our national hous ing, our national paper situation and muny industries which use lumber in manufactures. "I might add that statistics show that one In every twenty-five porsons in this country finds his livelihood in occupations directly connected with lumbering or in industries that are associated therewith. "The great causa of this situation Is forest fires. We have enough, land unfit for agriculture to trow all the timber which this country required, hut it large part of 11 has been made idle through destructive methods of logging, nnd particularly through re peated forest fires. There are 81.000, 000 acres of such land today that are unproductive as far ns timber crops of economic value nre concerned; and forest fires are largely responsible for their condition. We still have upwards of 200,000,000 acres of forest land which has hocn cut over, but contains culls or second growth timber or is partially stocked with youne trees. The small timber and young growth on this enormous area is a forest asset of the utmost value. A considerable part of this area lies in thickly popu lated states wilhln a stone's throw of large centers of timber consumption. Yet are enormous acreage of such young forests being destroyed by fire every year. The protection of this acreage represents the greatest single forestry problem In the country, and of Itself will go a long wily toward as suring a future supply of timber."

The ship's hull is egg-shaped with nothing to which Ice can cling. I'nder sufficient pressure from the floes In stead of being crushed, she should lift out of the water and be carried along with the pack and slip back when the pressure Is relieved. Mac.Vlillan plans to pass through tile dangerous Fury and llecla strait on the west side of Baffin Iiay and to explora a stretch of 1000 miles of the Baffin west or on which It is be- jlleved no whit man has ever set fjot. The Bowdoln Is 80 feet, 10 Inches in length; 19 feet, 7 inches beam: and 9 feet, 6 inches draft, with a total dis placement of 115 tons. She is of the knockabout auxiliary schooner type equipped with a 45 horse power crude oil burning engine, an installation which MaeMillan hopes will insure him a cruising radius virtually unlim ited by the use of whale oil to supple- aiflit tie regular fuel supply. The Bchooner will have a generous spread of canvas to enable her to sail when clear of ice should the fuel supply give out. Tin staunchness. of the bull is as sured by a heavy frame planked witli three-Inch white oak to which has been added at the wuterllno a five-foot belt of green heart of Irouwood. This armor Is said to withstand the grind ing action of Ice better than steel or any other material as the Ice merely polishes Its hard surface. When winter sets In a three-foot covering of snow and ice will be placed over tho entire ship with snow houses after the Eskimo typo to cover the hatchways. The expedition is planned to cover two years. It will go under the aus pices of the MaeMillan Arctic associa tion, largely composed of alumni of Bowdoin coilego from which MaeMil lan wus graduated. The ship has cost $25,000 and her equipment will- add $15,000 to this amount. The party will consist besides Dr. MaeMillan, of an engineer, three scien tists and a cook, nil of whom will be carefully selected. The Bowdoln will start north the first week in July. The schooner was christened by Miss May Fogg, of Freeport, a niece of the explorer. SEATTLE, April 11. Two crews of salmon fishermen, one employod by the (Northwestern Fisheries com pany and tho other bv Libhv. Mc'niil and Libby, have accepted a wage cut ot u per cent under last year's scale and will leave Seattle shortly for their season's work in Alaskan Waters it was announced today.

In simple grandeur the notes and words of the old doxology arose from half a thousand throats; a stalwart, white-headed Hawaiian senator and pastor spoke a solemn benediction, and sixty-four men and women once lepers filed between the lava pillars of Kalihl's gates to freedom, back to a world from which they bad been out casts, back to the nomes which some at least had uelieveu they never would see again.

Tour tlcctric service wire for lighting, cooking, heating or powr are only one ter minus of a vast electric equipment covering the territory served by this company. When you use electric lights or other service, you have the us of distributing lines with transformers, poles, copper wires, cross-arms and insulators,., sub-stations., with transformers, switchboards... and regulating devices, ..high tension transmission lines connecting the different power plants, which are located at different points on the line so that in case of an accident to one or two plants th other power plants would carry tke load and keep up the service. , v; .Your service is safeguarded by a large force of men repairing and testing lines and apparatus and emergency men with swift automobiles and motorcycles are ready at all hours of day or night to make repairs, regardless of storms or weather conditions. A railroad train may be ten minutes late or thirty minutes late, and as long as it does not occur too often it is not considered a serious fault in the serviee. a A customer who wishes to turn on an electric light wishes the service instantly and blames the service if lights are not instantly available at any hour of the day or night on the turn of the switch. In order that your electric lights may be ready for you when you turn the switch, requires ceaseless, untiring, intelligent supervision of the vast generating and distrib uting system between the power plants and your service connection.
