CASTOR IA For Infants and Children ki Use For Over 30 Years Always bears the Signature of DEFINITE FOREST POLICY Wealth of Northern New York Lies In Its Grass and Traas and Every Effort Should be Made to Develop the Soil and Conserve the Forests. (Mrs. George M. Bardo, Correspondent.) Declaring that the wealth of northern New York lies In Its grass and trees and urging every effort to develop the soil and conserve the forests. Dean Hugh P. Baker of the State College of Forestry of Syracuse University, addressed the Men's League of this place Suntlay night. Dean Baker urged a definite forest policy for the state. He said In part: \Outside of Its mineral wealth and a limited amount of manufacturing In which raw materials not produced in northern New York are used. It Is prob- able that this north country will bo known In the future because of Its value for the production of grass and trees. This north land Is capable of producing as good, if not better, grass and trees than can be produced .elsewhere In the United States. . : \With such promise for the future it is easy to Imagine a country teeming with industries dependent upon dairy farmB and forests. • \With grass and trees the sources of the wealth of the future of this north country it Is well to consider the fun- damental principle that It Is sound state economy to protect and develop- that basic wealth producer, the soil. In other words, It is good aense and good business from every-standpoint to protect and\ Im- prove the soils of northern New York. Conversely it Is bad business—It Is des tractive economy to be careless and wasteful of the soil and all that It produces. The soil that will ^produce the grass and trees of the future In this country Is your greatest asset. Be care- less and destructive In Its use and you strike a blow at your own \present and future welfare from which It will take years to recover. \The economic and business conditions of the past have been such that it has been difficult to prevent the devastation of forest land. There has been careless cutting followed by forest fires and erosion which have done tremendous damage for which each of you must pay In the years to come. We have been blessed Indeed In this great state In our forests and waters and in the richness of our soil. The forests of the north coun- try have been the immediate wealth pro-, ducers and In many Instances If the 'goose that laid the golden egg' has not been killed It has been so poorly cared for that It may be some time before the golden eggs will be dropped into the laps of the communities of the north country as they have been In the past. \The virgin forests which covered your hills and mountains, while of tremendous value, were not by a half 'or a quarter as productive as the well-managed for eats of-the future will be. That Is, vir- gin forests are not productive forests and when matured do not Increase the amount of timber on the land^they merely hold their place as far ns pro- duction Is concerned. \To use to best advantage the basic wealth producers all about us. Buch as the soil, the forests and the water, there should be formulated a sound land and forest policy for New York state. Such a forest policy should Include, not only the Idea of sound forest use as the ordi- nary business man looks at It, .but It should include the use of the forest as a water con^erver, for recreation and for the. production-of fish and game. . \It Is believed that the following points should be Incorporated In a forest policy for the state of New York: ..\1. That definite areas of- timber land In the Adirondacks and Catsklils be set aside as permanent parks to preserve virgin timber conditions; that these shall include areas which are protective for- ests nnd otherwise unusual examples-of the original forest. \2. That the remaining state lands be utilized ^pxefully for both direct returns from trfo mature timber nnd indirect re- turns from srame and recreation, subject to the rulog and regulations of the State Conservation Commission. \3. That all sources of revenue from the forest be available, in part af least, for the support of the forest. As game and returns from recreation are definite products of the. forests, a portion of the receipts from hunting and ffsMng- Ucenma shall be put into the development of the forest* \4. That protection of forests from flre and other destructive agencies funda- mental in any forest programme and careful organized forest protection should be state-wide. \5. That the forests of the state be made more accessible for utilization, fire protection and recreational purposes by aggressive extension of state roads. \6. That proper support be given by the state to educational and experimental work In forestry In the state so that the details of the policy outlined above may be carried out effectively and econom- ically.\ ^ Quarterly Meeting at Evangelical Church Next Sunday—Basket Ball—Personal Paragraphs.

The last quarterly meeting of the Evangelical church for this conference year will be held next Sunday morning; preparatory service Friday evening, con- ducted by Presiding Elder Rev. Bahn, The man, who loves a dog; and a pipe, has two staunch friends that never fail him in good luck or in bad. They give all and ask nothing in return. Day by day they become nearer and dearer to him. The man who hgs not a dog and a pipe has misvsed two of the greatest things this good old world can give. Every man who loves his pipe should know Velvet, the one tobacco that brings out all of a pipe's best and sweetest qualities. Your pipe takes on an added friendliness from Velvet's choice Kentucky leaf aged in the wood to a iriellowness that* s rich and srqooth as cream. Your pipe takes on a mild sweetness that, is Velvet's natural tobacco sweetness. And around you hovers the ~~real tobacco fra- grance that all good pipe smokers love. Never did Velvet Joe say a wiser, truer thing than this: \Folks say you can't buy friend\ ship.

LEAGUE ISIASSAILED BY METHODIST BISHOP Shows It la Un-American and Waa Fostered Here by Big Financial Interests. - Washington, Jan. 21.—While the Dem- ocratio minority In the Senate has been attempting to give the country the Im- pression that the \moral forces\ of the nation, as represented by the clergy, are solidly behind the President In his at- tempt to dictate the unreserved adoption of the British, document brought from Paris by him, Bishop Thomas B. Neely, of the Methodist ohflrch, has denounced the whole business as un-American. He says: \Supposing the *Big Four' at the peace conference did the best they could, what reason Is there to believe that the same or similar men In the Council of the League of-Nations would or could do any better? \The formation of this league will not banish war, and those who believed In the league because of Its promise to pre- vent war have lost' the foundation of their faith. As the league will hot do what they understood It promised to do, they are no longer obligated to give It allegiance. \Some have been induced to enter the ranks of league supporters by official and political Influence, and particularly be- cause the President wants to put the nation Into his International alliance, for- getting that the same President, in his more American days, spoke In the strongest terms against the United States going into foreign alliances, and said this country must live Its own life. Then he spoke like a true American, but, after residence in Europe, he talks like one of the international, a citizen of no country In particular. Wilson the Ameri- can is safer than Wilson the Interna- tionalist. 'Then there was a prompt, widespread and persistent propaganda with a strong financial and administration backing, that swept over the land, and, conscious- ly or unconsciously, affected many. It might be called the million-dollar propa- ganda were It not that the signs Indicate that much more than a single million dollars was spent. This fund was spent on newspapers, the platform, all sorts of meetings. aJU kinds of speakers, many public and private agencies. and \One of the strongest sections of this propaganda was the management of The League to Enforce Peace.' Thla league having one idea and very differ- ent from the , ; proposed league,-. wMctt mediated a.: nroltUjide of thing* tent oat its speakers and spent Immense sums of jQgney in support of the other and different league, and some have had diffi- culty- in discovering the consistency and ideal honesty of taking mbney contri- buted for one league and UBing the hun- dreds of thousands of dollars to further the Interests of a very different league which Is a political government to rule the world, Including the United States of America. So some have wondered how an ex-Presfdent of the United States, ono of—the- firat-offlcera- of the first league, could travel day and night all over the country speaking for the other league and urging Its adoption, and then coming; to Senators and other leaders against the league and proposing changes or reser- vations that proved the league was not as he wanted It. The explanation may be In the mysterious processes of some human minds. -, • • \ \If the United States' goes Into this league it goes Into this grinding machine. The United States will not dominate. It will not be free. The league will have the power and the United! States will have lost its liberty of action. It will not be Independent but subordinate—a subject government, no longer free.' 'If It ia Immoral to uphold Immoral things, then It Is ttnpadral for moral America to have anything to do with this morally tainted league, for In the Peace Conference votes for It were corruptly bought, as low politicians carry out their corrupt deals, as, for. example, the pass- ing, over of Chinese territory and Chinese people to Japan, and misrepresented America had a hand In the vile transac- tions.\ < , TO MAKE TIRES LAST LONGER. Farm Bureau Afjent Puts One Worn Casing Over Another and Gets * Increased Mileage. Now that so many farmers have cars for business, artt pleasure, word which comes to the State College at Ithaca, of how a North Dakota farm bureau agent is getting increased mileage out of his automobile tires my be of Interest. He has found that by putting one worn-out casing over another, he has secured considerable additional mileage. He states that the air must be removed from the tube and the tire removed from the rim before the other casing is put on. At first the Inside casing will hump up but by bouncing it up and down on the ground It gradually takes Its place. The two casings are then put on the rim with the under casing \being used as the cilnoher. This county agent has driven 1800 miles with two worn-out casings in this way. He says he notices that some dust,, working In between the two caB- lngs, has formed a small lump so that he expects a blowout In time, out he had had .the 1800 miles for his effort In com- bining the two tires. BISHOP BURCH PUTS DRJS GRANT TO LOYAL TEST Board to Decide If Rector Shall be Tried Before Episcopal- Tribunal—Likening Pilgrim Fathers to Bolshevlkl Other- Sentiments Challenged. and While vestrymen of the Church of the Ajsjtnslon, at Fifth avenue and Tenth street,' New York, debated over what action If any should-' be taken on. the radical utterances of their rector, the Rev. Dr. Percy Stlckney Grant, Bishop Charles Sumner Burch took swift meas- ures to force the matter to a head. . Declaring that the remarks attributed to Dr. Grant, and which that clergyman has never publicly denied, were unworthy of the pulpit, the Bishop- ordered that an Investigation be Instituted at once on be- half of the New York diocese of the Protestant Episcopal church. He also re- quested of the Vestrymen that they re- port to him forthwith on the result of their own lngulry Into Dr. Grant's recent speeches, and notified the clergyman that he would expect another report from him. To this Dr.' Grant replied that he would stand on whatever report the vestry would make. The Bishop's action, as far as could be learned yesterday, Is unprecedented In this country. \ It appears to be the first time In the history of the Christian church here than any clergyman has been called to account for utterances of the nature of those made by Dr.,Grant, - Under the laws of the Prot^ptant Episcopal church it Is In the power of, the Bishop to refer the charge* agalnatj. Dr. Grant to a comaaittee of five, that will have authority/to decide whether the rector Is to stahf trial In an ecclesi- astical court Bishop Burch Explains Move. Bishop Burch explained his purpose as follows: \I am putting the matter to the keenest test. I don't propose that the Episcopal church In this docese shall he placed under the Imputation of disloyalty because one or two or three of Its clergy may make utterances from the pul tending toward radicalism.

HOOVER IS SILENT. Democrats Sad When He Falls to Deny G. O. P r .Leaning*. Washington, Jan. 21.—Herbert Hooyer decided tonight to maintain silence con- aernlng his pterJScTfShsJnto the ranks of Presidential, iosslbllitiek by his friend and businearcolleague, Jolfus H. Barnes. Throughout the day Mr. Hoover was be- sieged hy requests for a\mblic state- ment urion his Intentions. \ The/Democratic National\Committee headquarters wore an air of disappoint- <- mehjr because Mr. Hoover had not denied ' that; he was,- as Mr. -Barnes said, a pro- ' passive ^Republican. Some Democrats we talked of Hoover for President and more have not discouraged the Idea. His support of President Wilson's appeal In October, 1918, for the election of*& Dem- - ocratlc Congress led some to consider him a possible Democratic candidate. ,7 Republlcan leaders generally refused , to comment upon the new hat In \the ring, though some of Mr. Hoover's . friends pictured him as of Rooseveltlan type and filling the bill as a business man candidate. Senator Lodge would say nothing, while Senators New Mc- Cormlck and Kenyon were non-commit- tal. The nearest to encouragement was the remark of Senator McCormick: \I'm glad to learn that Mr. Hoover Isn't following the will-of-the-wlsp of a Democratic nomination, at least.\ w 'sis A man may stumble upon Buccess and then think how clever he is. Things just out of reach always seem more desirable than those in hand. 1 - .... ,^#?m^##^
