"Afforestation creates a new indus

forests enhances the productiveness
of tho ndjacent areas and should pro

"The forests ot this Country, the
products of centuriet of growth, are
fast disappearing. Oursupply of gome

case of others, without reforesting,
the present century will see the end.

Water Coaservatioa
The controversy between Forester
Pinohot and Secretary Ballingeruver
water site reservations has assumed
large and national importance. Nat
orally those who know Pinchot and
bis sincerity ot purpose and untiring
labor to promote the best interests of
the country in conserving our timber
lands and water supply will tavor
bis position. In fact we of the East
generally know so little of the vaBt
resources of the West in timber and
water that we can hardly oompass
the magnitude of the problem and
its importance to this and future gsn
e aliens. Knowing something of the
land frauds, and not ouly those but
many others which have been and
are being perpetrated on the govern
ment by her agents and officials, we
look with suspicion on those who by
their acts seem to be favoring the
greed of individuals and corporation?,
Pinouot is in the best possible posi
tion to know more of the details of
n ih schemes and (heir ultimate oon
s quenoes and effects than any other
man. and when be says there is an
inclination lo allow tbese valuable
rights to pass from the control ot the
people into the hands of monopolies
he touches a responsive chord in the
popular mind. People from theit
knowledge of what has been are quite
ready to believe what easily pay be
the vase, and they are pot satisfied
with the teohntoat objections to hie
methods,. The broad questions is he
working aloug lines which wll pro
mote the greatest good to the great

NEWS FROM
WASHINGTON
After a protracted absence during
a long gammer vacation, the per
sonnel of tbe Government, with the
exception of the Legislative Branch
Is back in Washington. An exten
sive and positive legislative and
administrative program is in pros
peot. The President during his Jour
ney of several weeks, coveiiog near
ly evjry state, made numerous
speeches and was not reticent as to
his Intentions The mere faot thot
ha is tbe executor of the Roosevelt
Policies, a feet which he hag again
and again emphasized is sufficient to
indicate that there will be something
doing at the Capitol during the earn
ing winter.
Perhaps tbe most important project,
al'hongb tbe leaet sensational, will
be an effort to remedy the laws delay
in the Federal Courts, and to invent
a plan for securing prompt and eco
nomical justice in the Federal Courts
thereby setting an example to the
State Courts.
It is a fact acknowledged by all
except snide lawyers that the admin
istration of Justice in this country
is more dilatory and slovenly thaa in
any civilized country, with the ex
ception cf Russia, if indeed Russia
can be called civilized.
It is expected that the President
will recommend legislation sur press
ing the boycott. Also, a bill modify
ing the injunction processes There
will be a recommendation lo Congress
imposing limitations upon the trans
fer of water power sites to individ
uals and corporations and fixing
rentals and rates to be charged. He
will also recommend reforms in the
mineral land laws to the effect that
coal, iron, and other minerals shall
be treated under the royalty system,
bringing the Government a perpetual
revenue.
Tbe question of ship subsidies will
be urged upon Congress with the
object of developing onr Merchant
Marine with of course the ulterior
object of furnishing a large number
of sea-seasoned Americans to man
the United States war ships in time
of war.
The adoption of Income tax amend
ment to the Constitution will be fa
vored, this tax to be resorted to only
In time of national stress.
The creation of a Central Bank of
issue will be lecommended, tbe ob
ject of which will be to guard against
currency stringency,
Tbe President will also urge that
Inter-state Commerce Commission
shall have increased powers in the
regulation of the issue of railroad
gecurities on a sound basis. Also, to
classify freight, to initiate com
plaints of discrimination iu rates, to
compel connecting railroads to form
continuous routes, aod to establish
fixed rates among common carriers.
It may be inferred from atate-
meats in big speeches, that he will
recommend the prohibition of hold
ing stock in competing railroads,
and probably a new Court of Ap
peals to hear cases carried up from
the decisions of tbe Interstate Com
merce Commission In fixing rates.
It will be seen at a glanoe that
this is a heavy and very Important
program, aud it is doubtless suffi
cient to keep Congress busy for tbe
remainder of Mr. Taft's administra
tion. The Pressdent's official family, as
his Cabinet is called, Is back in
Washington and busy in tbe prepa
ration of the several reports for Con
gress. It is to be understood that
there will be a rigid outtlng down of
expenses.
The postmaster-general has an
nounced his intention to make the
Post Office, as far as possible, non ex
pensive to the Government. He
however, cannot do this without leg
islation. The Post Office Is the
greatest common carrier in the
world, but in the United States, the
cream of carrying profits Is skimmed
by tbe express companies, leaving
the Post Office tbe skimmed milk
The Post Office department should
be in this country, as it is iu other
countries, a source of profit to the
Government. There are thousands
of city carriers and rural carriers.
who, if the United States bad a
parcels post law, like other civilized
and even semi-clvillzed countries,
could be used without additional ex
pense to deliver small packages, and
thus be of incalculable service to tbe
people, and pay through the Post
Office, a revenue to the Government.
The Secretary of the Navy bag a
program of eoonomy, whioh It ia
hoped Is not merely missionary, but
he. will certainly have opposition
from Benalors Flu'e of Maine and
McIIenry of Lonlslans and other In
his efforts to wipe out. utlerly useless
and expensive Navy Yards, in ports
that the ghipa of the United Sla'es
Navy cannot enter, and which have

Best Time For Planting
Trees.
"When Is Ihe best time for plant
ing fruit tiees like the peach, apple
and plum? If trees are plnnted in
the fall Is it necessary to hill them
up over the bud?"
The above Information was request
ed of Prof H. A. Surface, State Zool
ogist of Pennsylvania, by a man
residing in Franklyn county, near
the Maryland line in a celebrate!
'fruit belt " It is a sample of hun
dreds of similar letterg received vih
in a few weeks. The reply of Pro
feasor Surface was brief and to tie
point, as follows;
"1 am well satisfied that apple,
pear and quince trees can be planted
iu the fall with good advantage, and
I would prefer fall planting for such
kinds. However, in planting peach
and plum I would as sooa plnnt in
can be put Into proper order. 'et 1
believe that fall planting of peach
and plum trees in your part of the
State and over the warmer portions
of Pennsylvania would be all right
and successful, It will be best to
cut them back well at planting, and
I think it would be advisable to
mound them up over the hud. If
they were so mouuded they would
not be liable to be killed by every
severe winter freezing, and if they
were injured, only the upper and ex
posed part would be damaged, and
the remainder could be left to grow
a Dew top, which it would do very
uicely. Cherry trees should be
planted in the spring the earlier Ihe
better.

"A PROCLAMATION.
"The season of the year has re
lamed when, in accordance with the
reverent custom established by onr"
forefathers, the people of the United
States are wont to meet to their
usual places of worship on a day of
thanksgiving appointed by the civil
magistrate to return thanks to God
for the great mercies and benefits
which they have enjoyed.
"During this past year we have
been highly blessed. No groat ca
lamities or flood or tempest or epl -demic
sickness have befallen us.
We have lived in quietness, undis
turbed by wars or miners of ware.
Peace and the plenty of bounteous
crops and of great Industrial product
ion animate a cheerful and resolute
leople to all the renewed energies
of beneficent industry and material
. and moral progress. It is altogeth
er fitting that we should humbly
and gratefully acknowledge the di
vine source of these blessings.
"Therefore, I hereby appoint
Thursday, tbe 25th day of November,
as a day of general thanksgiving and
I call upon the people on that day,
laying aside thtir usual vocations, to
repair to their churches and unite in
appropriate services of praise and
thanks to Almighty God.
"In witness whereof, I have hear
unto set my hand and caused the
seal of the United States to be affixer.
"Done at the city ot Washington
