PROTECT YOUR WOOD LANDS.
A Strong Appeal in Behalf of the
: Central Penna. Forest Fire Pro-
tective Association.
Mr. Woods Land Owner: —
Have you calculated the value of
your woods land from a study of the
growth of the various species of trees
now growing on it?
Do you know that the scarcity and
price of lumber products has revolu-
tionized former estimates of values?
Do you know that had your timber
been of marketable size and had not
grown any in the past twenty years,
that as an investment it would have
paid you nine per cent. interest to
have held it until the present time,
due to advance in price?
Do you know that during those
twenty years, had your timber been
twelve inches in diameter, it would
now be twenty inches in diameter, or
would have increased in volume 170
per cent., and would have paid you in-
terest at the rate of 6% per cent., due
to growth?
Do you know that with a spacing
20 feet apart each way one acre will
produce 110 trees, and that trees 20
inches in diameter will yield an aver-
age of 250 feet board measure, or
27,500 feet per acre, besides other
products, such as bark, mine timber,
paper wood, extract wood, chemical
wood ete.?
Do you know that the sprouts and
‘seedlings of today will make mine
timber, railroad ties, poles, piling,
ete., within thirty-five years and in
ten years more will make saw tim-
ber?
Do you know that of the sprouts,
Howard iron works and became liter-
ally fascinated with the various old-
time processes of making iron with
the result that while yet in his teens
he came to Bellefonte and went to
work at the old Valentine furnace. He
soon developed into an expert fur-
naceman and iron worker, an occupa-
tion he followed throughout all the
ownerships of the old furnace along
the pike and until it finally closed for
good. He is one of the last of the
old-time iron workers in this vicinity
to pass away. Mr. Long was a good
neighbor and kind friend, and was
ever ready- and willing to help to the
best of his ability.
He was married to Miss Mary Row-
an, of Buffalo Run, who died eighteen
years ago, but surviving him are the
following children: Mrs. Mary
Payne, of Bellefonte; Mrs. S. M. W.
Briggs, of Philadelphia; Mrs. Debo-
rah Housel, of Altoona; Mrs. John
Love, of Bellefonte; Mrs. Thomas
Moore, of Altoona; John and Logan
Long, of Bellefonte. He also leaves
twenty-nine grand-children and twen-
ty-one great grand-children.
Funeral services were held in St.
John’s Catholic church at ten o’clock
on Wednesday morning by Father
Downes, after which burial was made
in the Catholic cemetery.

GROVE.—Hiram Grove, superin-
tendent of the Westmoreland hospital
at Greensburg, and a native of Centre
county, died at his home in Greens-
burg last Friday morning of pneumo-
nia, after only a fey day’s illness. He
was born at Spring Mills, this county,
fifty-five years ago. He went to Pitts-
burgh when a young man and for
many years was assistant superin-
tendent of the West Penn hospital.
Four years ago he was selected as su-
perintendent of the Westmoreland
hospital and has since resided in|:
Greensburg. He was a member of
Masonic Lodge No. 537 of Greens-
before he was able to do so with: the
result that he developed appendicital
symptoms and died of exhaustion.
He was born in Beaver county on
June 29th, 1870, hence was not quite
fifty years old. He came to Belle-
fonte in April, 1915, to accept the du-
ties as head farmer at the penitentia-
ry and had made good with his work.
So good, in fact, that only recently he
purchased a home in Bellefonte in-
tending to make this his permanent
residence. He was a member of the
Presbyterian church, a quiet, unosten-
tatious man and a good citizen. His
death is a most distressing blow to his
little family, as his wife and three
children are confined to bed with influ-
enza.
Mr. Jack was married to Miss Sa-
rah McClure, of Beaver county, who
survives with four children, Helen,
Andrew, Luther and Margaret. His
parents are dead but he leaves one
brother, Boyd S. Jack, of New Brigh-
ton. No definite arrangements for the
funeral have been made at this writ-
ing but it is probable the remains will
be taken to Beaver county today, back
to his old home for burial.

HACKENBERG.—Mrs. Maude A.
‘Hackenberg, wife of S. A. Hacken-
berg, died at her home in Millers-
burg on Wednesday of last week of
bronchial pneumonia. She was a
daughter of John J. and Sallie C. Ock-
er, and was born at Rebersburg, being
aged at death 34 years, 1 month and
14 days. Her girlhood life was spent
in Rebersburg but for several years.

lersburg which has been their home
ever since. She was a member of the

ly girlhood. :
. Surviving her are her husband,
three sisters and one brother, namely:
Mrs. Edward C. Nearhood, and Mrs.

D. C., and it was always quite inter-
esting to hear her tell of those days
of stirring events.
she distinctly remembered as a very
familiar figure as he drove along the
‘avenue in his carriage.
Funeral services were held at the
Charles Hughes home at two o’clock
on Tuesday afternoon. Owing to the
inability of her pastor, Rev. Hurley,
to be present the services were in
charge of Dr. W. K. McKinney, and
burial made in the Union cemetery.

Mr. Scarlet: was seventy-one years

picked on our own campus and yard
—violets, flowering quince, daffodils,
acacia and red berries. There has not
been a day this winter when this
room has been without flowers grown
outdoors. Picked grape fruit in our
yard on Sunday. We are harvesting
cabbage by the ton in our college gar-
den. One of my contributions to our
teaching methods is the renting of
garden land, usually one-third to. one-
half acre, to students on shares for
the production of onion seed, lettuce
seed and vegetables for market. Thir-
ty odd students netted from eighteen
to seventy-eight cents per hour for
their time after paying for horse la-
bor, irrigation water, shipping crates,
ete., and most of them made over
thirty cents per hour. One woman
cleared over twenty-five dollars on a
pure bred sow and her litter of pigs.
Am just building shelter where twen-
ty students may house their own pigs
of which they will take entire care.
Also a group of poultry houses for
student flocks of one-hundred-and fif-
ty hens each. Before long we wifl
have students owning all kinds of
stock as a means of securing the actu-
al practice so many of them need.

In denial of the rumor above allud-
ed to the “Watchman” has received
the following official statement from
Col. W. Fred Reynolds, treasurer of
the company:
Editor “Democratic Watchman:”—
There seems to be a rumor on the
street that The Pennsylvania Match
company has sold its -plant to the
Diamond Match company. In the
first place, the Diamond Match com-
pany, on account of manufacturing a
larger number of matches than all the
so-called independent companies com-
bined, would find it extremely diffi-
cult to legally buy a competitive or-
ganization.
Second, the stockholders of The
Pennsylvania Match company have no
desire to sell their holdings. The bus-
iness is good, and under the selling
arrangements now existing it is ex-
pected to run the plant to full capac-
ity. In fact, for some time past the
management has been making every
effort to get a sufficient number of
in an act of June 4th, 1915, and still
co-operative in many other ways.
With the advantage of local manage-
ment this offers a very good means of
protecting the forests. Membership
in the association will cost as follows:
Life membership..........cv0ieeeene $25.00
Contributory membership........... 5.00
‘Annual membership................. 1.00
Land owners wishing to become a
member, with less than 200 acres of
land, will be taken in under the annu-
al membership class. Land owners
‘having more than 200 acres will be
charged not more than one cent per
acre in addition to the annual mem-
bership charge.
Membership in this association will
give you better fire protection,
knowledge of how to obtain trees for
planting, how to plant, what to plant,
care for, manufacture and market
your forest products, estimates of the
value of mature and immature trees,
more game, fish and wild life, better
and more water, increased land val-
ues and an opportunity to contribute
to the present and future welfare of
your community.
