The continued productivity of any : Irrigated region Is dependent upon Us (water supply, and the water supply is t regulated by the condition pt the fof , est cover.on the watershed. Therefore , we may say that the productivity of "I the arm lands depends upon the con dition, ot the fprests.'- Tha i-oriiHr nf wntPi-fihpd denudation . ire well known. Without the protec- t ttve forest cover the winter snows melt quickly and the water. rushes down the Btream courses, .carrying tons of silt , which fills the reservoirs and ditches. The stream beds are -cut down into j deep gullies nnd, floods result, which v in some cases have swept away whole v towns. The summer rains run off J quickly where the soil has boon ex r posed. if the watersheds ore -covered with a stand of timber and its attend ant undergrowth the winter accumu (l 1 at ion of snow is let down grndunlly, thus, lasting far. Into the summer when ' i it Is moat needed. The, summer rains , nre also sejd back a.nd erosion is held , to a minimum. , . The most destructive agency of the forest jcovor on the watersheds is for j est fires. These fires not only kill the . young growth, but they also- burn the ', humus out of the soil and render it less ' water retentive, Continued fires so . deplete the soil of plant food that in time the watershed becomes an erod- ed,- barren waste Incapable of support J lng vegetative growth, , t Lumbering on the watersheds is not destruqtlve if proper cutting mothods Tnre practiced. The. forest service" reg- illations, applicable on all national forests, provide that only the ripe or , mature .trees be cut, and special care t,Is taken to Itepp the .damage to young ' growth dow ntoia minimum. Brush nnd all debris is .piled and burned, us--f jially in the fall when there is no dan i. per. of the firos spreading. CP. Suit was filed In the circuit court . Friday by V. T. Wright, a farmer. , against Morton and Hons, flour mill .operators of Central Point for the . collection of $875 alleged, to , be duo on the sale of 3581 bushels of wheat at 1 r.ft noi' hnghnl ' Th wllfinl WflR sold InBt winter, and ono payment of $1500 and three payments of . $1000 each- made.

Hatfield, of Los Angeles, widely claimed as a "rain jmikor," who has been here several days awaiting a de cision on his offer to local arglcultUr al interests to produce two inches of rain within thirty days for an unstat ed consideration believed to be $8000, today prepared to return to his home after a committee of sugar nnd cotton planters yesterday rejected his pro posal. , Rain was fulling as the decision was announced. Dr. I. M. Cllnc, weather forecaster at New Orleans, cautioned the plant ers against hastily accepting Mr. Hut field's offer when first made saying: 'Tho month of May ss usually marked by heavy precipitation in the Louisiana and Mississippi region. If rnln follows as usual enough will be had to take care of the needs." As the committee announced its decision yesterday a cold steady rain was falling.
