American Forestry Association F. E. Weyerhaeuser, one of the largest individual owners of timber lands in the world, was recently interviewed in Tacoma regarding the forest policy of the government. Mr. Weyerhaeuser said: "I think the forest reserve policy is all right. The government is doing the right thing. It should save the timber. Yes, we have just made a contribution to the school of forestry at Yale. People should become interested in this subject. They should study it. We are glad to assist the movement." The Pennsylvania railroad is about to plant the largest artificial forest in the history of the United States. A tract of 20,000 acres has been purchased on the slope of the Allegheny mountains between Altoona and Hollidaysburg and there the seeds will be sown which at the end of forty years are expected to yield an annual harvest of more than 4,000,000 railroad ties. Appleton, Wis., June 24, 1907.—Despite the frequent heavy rains during the last ten days the water in Lake Winnebago continues to fall and within a week or ten days, at the present rate, there will be scarce enough water flowing over the dams here to furnish ample power for the many manufacturing plants.—The Paper Mill—July. Complaints as to low water are heard at present from many quart- during the last ten days the water in Lake Winnebago continues to fall and within a week or ten days, at the present rate, there will be scarce enough water flowing over the dams here to furnish ample power for the many manufacturing plants.—The Paper Mill—July. Complaints as to low water are heard at present from many quarters and in some sections low water-mark, which isn't generally reached until several weeks from now, has already been touched. In northern New York the Black DeGrasse, Oswegatchee and Raquette rivers are all low and pulp grinders have been compelled to almost shut down their plants in some instances. In New England the ery of low water is already heard, and at Holyoke there was this week talk of putting restrictions in force. In the West, there are heard the same complaints, and it is very evident that the summer period of short water is starting in ahead of time in all paper-making sections.—The Paper Mill—June. With only a few trips made annually by steamboats on the Mississippi between St. Louis and New Orleans, it would seem that the next thing for the government to do would be to arch it over and mark it closed. The millions expended on it have in the main been wasted. Poor old Father of Waters is troubled with senility, also gravel—West Coast Lumberman—June. The principle trouble of the poor old Father of Waters is caused by the deforestation of the lands at its headwaters.

Unless something is done to prevent the destruction of the Southern Appalachian forests it will be but a few years until similar conditions will prevail throughout the entire South. WATERPOWERS OF THE SOUTH. There still remain undeveloped on the numerous streams having their headquarters in the Appalachian forests, nearly 3,000,000 horse-power in close proximity to the center of the cotton fields. It is this cheap power that constitutes the most valuable asset of the commercial South, and which affords her manufacturing supremacy. To preserve this asset the continued regularity of the stream flow in these regions must be maintained. Any stream which discharges floods of water during the rainy season, and goes practically dry in the summer, is worthless for power purposes. The maximum capacity of a stream for the gener- Convalescents need a large amount of nourishment in easily digested form. Scott's Emulsion is powerful nourishment—highly concentrated.

But the man does not yet realize waterpower is a resource that may be dissipated and de-Already, wherever forestation has taken place in the hills, the waterpower has visited, finished, and in many places used entirely.

State Fair The California State Fair and Western Stock Show will open at Sacramento on Saturday, September 7th, and continue until including Saturday, September 14th. The agricultural, horticulture, forestry, mining and mechanical section of the California State fair will open Monday, September 2d, simultaneously with the Irrigation congress and the Irrigated Products exposition, and will continue until Saturday, September 14th. Saturday, September 7th, will mark the close of the National Irrigation congress and the formal opening of the State fair and will be celebrated by a grand irrigation parade and other demonstrations, making it a day of general jubilation. As indicating what this parade and jubilation will be, we can do no more than refer to an article in the Sacramento Bee of July 10th, commenting on a meeting of the executive committee of the National Irri- Johnny Was a Sport opened in Sunday school.

Gen. today stated the expressed opin- gation congress and the formal opening of the State fair and will be celebrated by a grand irrigation parade and other demonstrations, making it a day of general jubilaton. As indicating what this parade and jubilation will be, we can do no more than refer to an article in the Sacramento Bee of July 10th, commenting on a meeting of the executive committee of the National Irrigation congress, and the subjects considered by it, as follows: "It was decided to commence work on the various floats that are to be in the big parade at once and Charles Tidball, the noted designer and artist, was selected to take charge. "Those planning the parade declare it will be one of the most striking spectacles ever attempted in the West. They boast that it will rival in point of splendor the celebrated Mardi Gras and Veiled Prophet shows of New Orleans and St. Louis. "The history of irrigation from the days of the Pharaohs down to the present time will be portrayed in a series of huge floats. Allegorical figures representing the subject through all stages of human progress, from the very dawn of civilization in the cradle lands of the race in the Orient, will be grouped in tableaux. This display is but one of the many attractive features of the festivities being arranged for the entertainment of Sacramento's visitors next September. In addition to the Irrigation pageant there will be a splendid electrical illumination and a round of fetes of extraordinary interest and charm. The board of control, whose members have assumed the task of making the congress and incidental entertainment a memorable page in the history of this city's annals, are determined that there shall not be a dull moment for visitors during the continuance of the congress and the interstate exposition."

Neither labor or expense will be spared to effect that result. The irrigation spectacle will be in line with the magnificent display of irrigation and forestry products in the interstate exposition. For no similar event in the United States has there been hung up a bigger aggregation of costly gold and silver trophies and valuable prizes for collective and individual exhibits. These features will attract to Sacramento the greatest gathering of strangers ever brought together in California's capital city.

But if the blister beetles fail to fatten in Orange county, the farinaceous tubers are the more esculent in consequence, and the farmer's profits so much the greater when he harvests his crop.

Southern Pacific Considering that the growers find a profit in spud-raising at $1.20 a sack, and that the crop thus far marketed has averaged from $2.10 to $2.25 a sack, with occasional fancy brands fetching as high as $2.40, the farmers in the vicinity of Anaheim have a right to be cultivating broad smiles these days. But, then, everything down there is so efficiently cultivated that the personal reflection is not at all surprising.
