Details of the plan have been worked out by the United Statea Forest service which Is ready to launch the work Immediately upon receipt of word from the President, which la expected dally. The project calls for the planting of treea In strips seven rods wide, running north and south and one mile apart in a belt of Prairie coun try 100 mllea wide, extending 1000 miles from the Canadian Una to northern Texas. Within the belt the total area to be planted approximates 800,000 acres. Two-Fold Purpo. The purpose of the undertaking Is two-fold. First, to provide Imme diate employment for drought- stricken families In the prairie drought area: and second, to protect the prairie farms permanently against the desecrating winds that rob their lands of soil and moisture and make farming highly precarious and uncer tain. Ribbons of forest a mile apart bisecting the prairie region. It Is held. will break the velocity of the winds over a wide territory, will help hold the soil and moisture in place and will provide shelter for man, beast, and bird. The proposed 100-mile wide shelter belt would begin on the Canadian border In Rolette, Towner, and Cava lier counties In North Dakota and would extend almost directly south through central South Dakota and Nebraska, western Kansas and Okla homa, terminating at Motley, Cottle and Hardeman counties In northern Texas. The belt parallels closely the prairie region of 18 to 25-inch rain fall, which experience has proven makes tree growth possible. Take Ten Years. Ten years is estimated to be re quired to complete the work, the total cost of which Is placed at approxi mately 70 million dollars. An ex penditure of 915,000,000 Is contem plated the first year and an execu tive order awaiting the president's approval would make this sum imme diately available from the t&2 5,000 ,000 emergency fund appropriated by con gress for drought-stricken agricultural sections of the country. It Is estimated that 90 per cent of the money will go to farmers in pay ment for lands purchased and In the form of wages for work performed In planting and in caring for planta tions. Some IS Civilian Conservation camps are contemplated to provide work for farm boys in connection with the development and operation of the necessary nurseries. BIRTHS Mr. and Mrs. W. H.

Following a few facts concerning the climate of the islands, the rivers and harbors and physical aspect of the great group in the Pacific, Mr, Newman described the old city of Manila In contrast with the modern metropolis characteristics of the peo ple and the changes brought about through the vastly improved educa tlonal system under American rule were especially mentioned. A vivid picture of the devastating typhoons waa also brought to the Rotarlans by the speaker. Frank Newman devoted a part of his Intensely Interesting talk to the wild and domestic life of the Philip pines and pointed out that fruits, granite, hardwoods and 'minerals, as well as sugar, are produced on a far more extensive scale through modern methods Introduced by the United States.
