Many Camp Sites Leased in State
Forests.
Over three hundred camp site leases
are now in effect on the Pennsylvania
State Forests. Forty more are await-
ing survey and payment of rental, and
applications for sixteen will be acted
on at the next meeting of the State
Forest Reservaticn Commission. Tt is
estimated that almost four hundred
leases will he granted before the end
of the year, and that between 2,000
and 4,000 people, in addition to the
small army of temporary campers,
will be using the State Forests regu-
larly as recreation grounds because of
the privileges granted by these leases.
Legsees of camp sites are permitted
to erect permanent camps on leased
areas, and an increasing number is
being built every year. The camps
vary in style from log cabins to non-
combustible steel houses. They are
usually located miles from the near-
est settlement, and are proving to he
a great convenience to the men of the
State Forest Service when they are
obliged to spend a night far back in
the mountains.
The location of the largest number
of leases is a fair guide to the best
hunting, fishing, and outing grounds
of the State. Huntingdon county
leads with forty-three leases. Clinton
county has forty; Pike, thirty-six;
Clearfield, twenty-eight; Centre
county has twenty-four; Mifflin, twen-
ty-one; Union, eighteen; Elk and Pot-
ter, seventeen each; and Cameron,
fourteen. The remaining number is
divided among nine counties. There is
small danger of overcrowding, for the
number of leases could be trebled and
there would still be an average of
over a thousand acres of State Forest
for each camp.
Rentals vary from three dollars to
fifteen dollars a year, being based on
the desirability and accessibility of
the camp sites. The average rental is
about five dollars a year. The Com-
missioner of Forestry has ruled that
leased camps may be occupied by any
number of persons at any time, and

Where Chestnuts Are Plentiful.
“Kentucky mountain children’s feet |
are impervious to the barbs of greer |
chestnut burrs which lacerated my |
feet through cowhide boots,” said A. |
L. Bowden, an oil inspector for Pitts-
burgh capitalists, while in Pittsburgh |
last week. He has just returned from |
the town of Big Windy and related
some incredible tales of the chestnut
burrs which cover the mountain roads |
sometimes to the depth of three fe=t.
“Tt is funny to see the squirrels try
to take the chestnuts away from the
turkeys after the bird has cracked
open the burr,” said Mr. Bowden.
Turkeys find the chestnut a fattening
focd. One can get a turkey down
there now for 9 cents a pound. It is
no expense to raise turkeys, as the
the domestic bird roams the moun-
tains there, living on acorns, grub
worms, chestnuts, each food in its
season.
“Miles and miles of chestnut burrs
are along the mountain roads. The
crop is the heaviest in Kentucky’s his-
tory. Mules and oxen travel through
the roads, some places three feet deep
with burrs, but when I first tried a
horse, the spines of the burr ran into
his feet and legs. Scores attached
themselves to his tail, so that when he
switched it he stung himself all over
and ran away.
“Then I tried an automobile and
every tire got punctured before T
went 20 feet. There was little frost
this year, and the ‘sting’ was not tak- |
en out of the burr. Ihad a moun-
taineer throw me a pair of heavy cow-
hide boots, to enable me to wade out
of the chestnut burrs—and even then
1 had to lay up a week from lacerated
feet. It gets me how those kids can
beat it around barefooted on those
chestnut heaps, throw burrs at each
other as in a baseball game—and na-
ry a one gets a scratch.”

Medical.
No: Reason for it
WHEN BELLEFONTE CITIZENS
SHOW A WAY.
There can be no reason “why any
reader of this who suffers the tortures
of an aching back, the annoyance of
urinary disorders, the pains and dangers
of kidney ills will fail to heed the words
of a neighbor who has found relief.
Read what a Bellefonte citizen says:
Mrs. Sara Miller, 210 E. Howard St.,
Bellefonte, says: “The first I noticed my
kidneys were weak was when I began to
have headaches and dizzy spells and
spots floated before my eyes. I also had
pains in my back and there was a duil
ache across my loins. I couldn’t do any
lifting and if I sat down, I could hardly
get up without help. I also had rheu-
matic twinges. After I had taken two
boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills, the rheu-
matic pains disappeared and I was re-
lieved of the other troubles. I have had
very little trouble since.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply
ask for akidney remedy—get Doan’s Kid-
ney Pills—the same that Mrs. Miller had.
