BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE
The American Forestry association
shows in its official publication that
there is a movement well under way
to restore the timber of the country
before it is too late. Reforestation,
it is said, is actually under way in a
number of eastern states. There is
planting of hardwoods by commer
cial lumbermen and of spruce by
paper manufactures with an eye to
the future. Nearly 2,000,000 acres
are being acquired by the federal
government in eastern states at an
average price of $5.26 an acre for
three planting on an appropriate
scale. Roadside planting is growing
in popularity, though it is not clear
that this will add materially to com
mercial timber resources, and local
observations of Arbor Day in various
localities are becoming something
more than the perfunctory affairs
that they used to be.
It is a big programme, on which
the west will look with a not inex
pert eye. Yet we shall do injustice
to the pioneers if we thoughtlessly
convict them of undue waste. They
were guided in their time by the best
. lights that shone then. The forests
of walnut and hickory and other
now precious wroods that then were
ruthlessly laid low gave way to
farms that supported a sturdy popu
lation and for finished lumber there
was neither market nor transporta
tion. The story of the taming of
every wilderness has been a story of
waste indispensable under prevail
That events have a way of righting
themselves is indicated by the re
forestation campaign. It remains
only to conduct it with the same en
ergy that characterized the work of
those early settlers to make good a
great part of the loss within a
measurable term of years.
OCX’S ACCEPTANCE
Among all the editorial comments
which we have read upon the ac
ceptance speech of Candidate Cox,
the following from the Brooklyn, N.
Y., Standard Union, is the most terse
and apt:
“Cox, as a candidate, is for the
League of Nations. Every vote for
Cox will be a vote for that hideous
league to promote war, that by its
own terms drags us into every war
that can possibly arise between mem
bers or non-members anywhere in the
world. A vote for Cox would be a
vote for Wilsonism just as much as
if Mr. Wilson were the candate him
self.”
We are told that there is “no oc
casion for alarm in the increased
transportation bill of the country.”
Still, a billion and a half is a tidy
sum and we more than suspect that
it will be passed along.
If we must have commercial Zep
pelins in the United States, let’s
think up another name for them.
THINGS WE THINK
Things Others Think and What We
Think of the Things Others Think.
Work isn’t everything, but loafing
isn’t anything.
A lot of orators mistake strong
lungs for strong minds.
Noise don’t indicate speed. A jack
rabbit hasn’t any voice.
Trouble sits lightly upon one who
sits heavily upon trouble.
Success that doesn’t bring a sense
of responsibility is a failure.
There is only one good goose that
laid golden eggs, stnd she’s dead.
If your advice is valuable, why do
you try to give so much of it away.
The girl that knocks ’em cold is the
one who is so wise she makes ’em
think she isn’t.
The reason a city farmer is seldom
a success is because a hen is seldom
a good swimmer.
Nobody cares how much money
you’ve made except those who expect
ed to get some of' it.
The world’s greatest man will be
the one who invents a way to run
all governments withot taxes.
The loafer who is living off some
body else is the hardest kicker
against the high cost of living.
It must be a shock to a romantic
bride to discover that her once ro
mantic lover is largely stomach.
*
Any tired mother of a large family
knows that the best vacation she can
have comes when all the children are
in school.
What every boy knows is that the
fly swatter with its padded edges is
a vast improvement over the old-fash
ioned shingle.
Don’t expect your boy to become
a statesman merely because he makes
a lot of noise. A patent medicine ven
do~ does that.
•-*
The best bet is that the man who
is living apart from his wife first
realizes his mistake after batting
about the restaurants for a week.
Even the styles in geniuses change.
The genius who used to wear a seven
dollar suit and a string tie now can’t
find a tailor to suit him and carries
a cane.
Some candidates will sweep the
country eventually by running on a
platform favoring a two-hour work
day and no work during the two
hours.
A homely girl can’t have too many
brains, but if a pretty one has an
unusual supply she has enough of
them to know she must keep the fact
a secret.
