The bureau of forestry of tne de- partment of agriculture has issued the following bulletin: Wher completely established the Minnesota national forest reserve will contain about 225,000 acres. Of this area 106,000 acres have already been Selected by the government. Under the terms of the Morris law 96 per cent of the pine timber thereon must be cut. This pine has beea sold and ‘Secuted last year. Nine logging camps were established, and the cutting began early iu August. wo camps. Pwhich worked uuder a system of summer railroud logging, shut down for the season in November. . The other seven. camps, in which winter logeing is being done, are still run- Puing. ‘The most interesting of the several erations, from a forester’s stand- nt, was on sections 15, 16,17 aud op ‘|sota under the federal law, bas been ‘the work of cuuting was actively pro-; as soon as all Indian allotments have been completed, the flowage lines of the war department’s reservoirs in: this locality have been definitely fixed, and the question of the status ): of the lands selected as swamp lands, which insure to the state of Minge- | definitely settled. —Paluth Evening Herald.

These pilés were burned between October 28 and December 23. T'he brush and debris: on the remaining 100 acres were piled and will be burned ata suitable Lime in the spring.’ Su care- in dud around section 16 it was com- pleted without injury to the 5 per- cent of seed trees reserved. ‘The area covered by the fires by which the brush and debris were destroyed was onky about 7 per cent of the cut over lait. Phe contractors running the seven wititer camps are. also dvuing their cutting, hauling, and brush burning under the inspection of the bureau of forestry. Each of these camps operat- edie er’a larger area t season than digs the two camps already mentioned. THe timber purchasers have until July, 1908, to finish the cutting and réwoval of the timber from the sec- reudy suld. Although the re- ‘gulation for conservative were new to. the lumbermen, they have been applied effectively. Not ouly have the relations between the bureau officials iv charge of the work and ‘the loggers been entirely friendly, but a radical change in the attitude of the lumber interests of thts region Aowards forestry has taken place, as the resultof a better understanding of its methods and its purposes. An important result of the past sea- son’s work’Was. the practical demon- stration thatit is most effective aud most economical to pile and burn brush and debris, so far as practic able, as fast’ as the Jogging proceeds. When the ‘burning cannot be imme- diately done, the brush should be kept cleaned up and compactly piled close behind the Jogging. It can then be burned at a time when there is no danger of the fire spreading or xet- ting beyond | control. In Minnesota. i9u4 was a good seed ar for both white aod Norway pine. oreover, in many piaces, in addition to the5 percent ot seed trees reserved, there remains after the cutting and the brush burning a good stand of young pine too small to be cut, which will now take on more rapid growth. ‘Thus reforestation may be ‘said to have already begun.

Of that amount $500 is credited to the town of Jameson to be spent on the road connecting the village of Littlefork with the town-of Cingars... A town west of Ripple on Sturgeon river also received an appropfiation of $300. A road was also ordered laid out in 96-24 and 69-28, the ultimate destina- tion being the south line of 68-23. For the benefit of the settlers down on the lower Raipy a road was ordered laid out to run east from the west Hue of 160-28 through 160-27. The} Black river country was looked after and a road to connect with the road running parallel with the river -to International Falis was ordered laid out. “With the completion of the above two roads the settlers along the western border will have a through theroughfare to this point. Bids for corduroying the mile of imp on the Rat Rout road are be- ing advertised for. When this mile is completed there will bea good sum- wer road through to the Rat Root. The settlers in that vicinity will be compelled Lo submit bids if they want the mile corduroyed, as Commissioner Lang inforws Us that the corduroying will have to be done by contract, as the board refuses to construct any more. Bids must be forwarded to Commissioner Lang by February 25. —Border Butler, soscuane: to Paralytic Stroke. S. A.

Great Northern Will Make It Easier .For Passengers On Duluth Line To Eat. The Great Northern will make a change in its dining service on the through line to the west of Duluth. A combination dining’car-and parlor has been run on trains vy. I3and 14, and instead a buffet sleeper will be put on. The-dining car has been leaving Duluth at 9:30 a. m. and going as far as Ball Club where the train arrives at 2:08 p.m. The east bound train bringing the car back leaves Eall Club at the same hour which has been a pretty close connection for the service. Iu,case the east bound train is late, it makes it necessary to shorten the west bound run on the car to get it into Duluth without hindering the east bound train. Change it is proposed to run two buffet sleepers through as parlor cars ‘ from Duluth to Grand Forks. With this change pairons will be enabled to eat later and commence as much earlier on the east bound run as they like. Holds Up Just Bill. Commissioner Lang informec us that County Attorney Spear has ap- pealed from the decison of the county board in allowing the bill of Matt Donahue for services rendered as fore- man of the work that was done last summer on the county road west of town. Matt has dune lots of hard work on the roads without receiving acent of compensation, “ind has been one of the must ardent workers. in this section fur the bettering of our thoroughfares.

Henning Boy Is Brought to This City to Serve a Five Days Sentence A boy named Arthur Paulson, a lad about 15 years of age, was brought in from Henning Tuesd morning to serve a 5 days sentence in the county jail for smoking cigareties. Cigarette smoking is admitted by all to bea very injurious practice and the law prohibits the sale of the pernicious little “colin nails,” and to punish both the dealer who sells them to minors and the minor who smokes them. In this intance, hoy was found smoking on the school house grounds and the teachers determined to puta stop to the practice once and for all and preferred charges in the justice court. The justice took the ground that it would be just as well tomake an example, and sentenced the boy to five days in the county jail. and he was accordingly. brought tu this city to serve his sentence. The matter should be followed up and tbe’ dealer who sold the boy the aims the cigarettes should be given an adjoin-, ing cell. The arrest will serveas a general. warning.—Feggus Falls Jour~ nal.
