EDITORIAL RAISING TREES BY REDUCING TAXATION It has been stated on good auth- ority that four times as much tim- ber is consumed each year as Is grown. Reforestation is the pro- per solution for our dwindling tim- ber supply. But it is more easily preached than practiced, due to heavy taxes which consume all possible profits, long before the trees are marketable. California is to vote at the next election on a constitutional amend- ment designed to relieve replanted timberlands from taxation until the trees are merchantable, This is a progressive move, and should be followed by other states. of the Landisville GREATER BENEFIT TO TAX- PAYERS THAN TIRES A recent press dispatch from Washington, D. C., said that “tire wear on macadam roads is 17 times as great as on concrete roads.” On the face of this statement it is absurd: It is a poor tire that will not go 2,000 miles on any kind of a macadam road; while it js a rare exception for a tire to make 34,000 miles, which it would have to do on above basis, even on the finest type of asphalt road which causes less tire wear than any other practical type of road paving. As a matter of fact, every auto- mobile driver knows that tires give thousands of miles of wear on the ordinary rough stone or water- bound macadam road. The great advantage in salvaging old gravel and macadam roads with a water- proof surface of an asphaltic char- acter which saves tire wear, is the saving which results to taxpayers by utilizing the, whole of their pre- vious road investment in the old road base. SLOGANS Department number ol safety exhi- HIGHWAY SAFETY The State Hignhwély of Ohio is using a safety iirst slogans at bitions in an eifort to reduce mo- tor accidents. Several of these were originated by the department and have found wide vogue. Here are some of them: 1., to scare trves wis’ your horn. 2. A road hog roots dam with his nose. 3. Our roads are wide smooth, don’t burn them up. 4. , Death is permanent— take a minute or two at dangerous railroad crossings. 5. Tragedy in words: Speed increases, ceas Rest in pieces. 6. Horse sense, well horsepower, should enter into operation of motor vehicles, 7. Live to ride another day by obeying all warning sig Belisve in highwa; warning signs—they mean what they say. 9. Drive with care—you may meet a fool. 10. A reckless driver inal. 11. Keep your hands on the wheel—Ilot your girl hug herself. 12. The three “H’s”—Hooch— Hueeoing—Haste” cause 75 per cent of the motor accidents. locomo- up S0 seven Breath as is a crim IT’S UNFAIR COMPETITION Newspapers, especially the small- er ones of the nation, are just now organizing a campaign to persuade Uncle Sam to refrain from printing return addresses ‘on stamped en- velopes at in competition with the little printers. Under existing conditions, Uncle Sam hires sales- men in the persons of postal .em- ployes to solicit the business, write up the orders, transmit them to the printer, collect the bill and de- liver the printed job at the con- sumer’s office. Why the _ smaller newspapers alone should be subjected to that kind of competition from their own government cannot be ex- plained, and there is prospect that thq printing service that the gov- erument has rendered practically free to users of stamped envelopes will be abolished by this session of Congress. Other business enterprises that are perennially threatened with government competition below cost, if taxes and overhead were calcu lated, should join with the news- papers in the effort to get Uncle Sam out of the printing business for the general public, in competi tion with private enterprise; and thus strengthen the principle of confining government activities to the functions of government.
