"CHINA HAD STONE AGE medium in the luxuriant | Stockholm, Feb. 28.—Discoveries made in Chinatby J, G, Anderson, a Swedish scientist, establishes in his belief that China a stone age. At Fengtien, the expedition headed Professor Anderson, excavated a out cight by 18 feet. In it were found bones from about 40 hu- man bodies and a large number of objects, none of which was of metal. The objects included arrowheads, stone axes, bone awls, curious stone rings and a tiny piece of animal seulp- ture made of marble, fragments of remarkable vessels, some with press- ed geometrical, patterns and others with a polished red surface orna- mented boldly in black. Professor Anderson dates the cave to the tran- sition between the stone gge and the bronze age, or about 2,000-1,500 B. Large collections of remains also were fgund at Yang Shao, including miecimntis of red and black ceramic objects similar to those found at Fengt Heretofore leading experts on Chinese history have held that there was no evidence of a stone age in China. MEASURES 10 SAVEFO FORESTS Ely, Minn., Feb, -28.—Another in- formal agreement between the United States and Canada has been added to the list of such “treaties,” with the conclusion? of a conference here petween Forester William Darby of. the Canadian forest service and Su- pervisor Calvin Dahlgren of — the Superior idnal forest, which is under the jurisdiction of thé United | States forest service. | The agreement has to do with ad- | ditional cooperation in protecting \from forest fires thousands of ‘acres of beautiful woods and lake country adjoining the boundary line. It has been arrafged to have a new steel lookout tower ayhich is to be erected jon the high bluff on Shortiss Islgnd| in the boundary waters, connected! by telephone with the Superior Na-| tional forést Lac La Croix ranger station. The Lac La Croix post al- ready has direct telephone connec-} tions with the local forestry head-| quarters. The new Shortiss Island tower, which will be erected by the Cana- dian service in the spring, will over- look long stretches of forests on both sides of the boundary and will; reach a section heretofore without| tower protection. h Her Nightly Program.
