But the governor was sick the next time Mr. Bryan came to the state. He was like the small boy, ‘‘just sick enough to stay at home from school and go a-fishing.” Yet why should he leave Minnesota to speak for Bryan? Where could he find a better field than right here at home, where he is best known and his influence presumable is greatest? Even one strong, ringing speech delivered in thisstate by the governor in behalf of his party and his party’s candidate would show to his friends throughout the other states where his heart is, and that he meant what he said when he told Mr. Bryan that he would support him. It is evident, however, that he has again changed his mind and again stultified himself. In fact, he seems to have acquired the stultification habit. He said he would support Mr. Bryan as a candidate for the nomination. But he dian’t. He said he would not be a candidate against him. But he was. After he became acandidate he said it was not for the purpose of beating him. But be went the limit just the same, insisting on having a handful of votes recorded for him at the con- vention. After the convention he promised to speak for Mr. Bryan in several states. But he won’t. He pledged him support. But it is doubtful if he will even deliver his vote. Hecame home after Denver and time after time said he would not be a candidate for a third term. But he never made any effort to stop his official family from setting up the pins for him. He said he would not accept the nomination if tendered him. But he did, He said he was opposed on prin- | ciple to third terms. But he is trying his best to get one. He said that to accept the nomination would be to stultify himself, and with the utmost possible promptuess proceeded to do the stultifying act. The plain fact is as proved by this record, which is but partial, that Governor Johnsou’s word is not worth two cents. His pledges have been broken so many times that he should stop making them, as so one has any reason to place any confidence in them. It does not matter what he may promise the people as to his future action; it can count for nothing. He would fulfill his promise if at the time it might happen to further his political ambition. — Duluth News Tribune. colored with coal-tar dye. ‘Tomato Catsup” made from cann- ing factory refuse, colored with coal- tar dye and preserved with salicylic acid. “Olive Oil” composed chiefly of cot- tonseed oil. “Maple Syrup” composed chiefly of cane syrup. ‘Pepper’ composed chiefly of ground olive stones, cocoanut shells, sawdust or other inert material. “Currant Jelly” manufactured from refuse apple stock, commercial glu- cose and gelatin and colored with coal-tar dye, preserved with salicylic acid and flavored with current juice. “Cider Vinegar” made of diluted commercial acetic acid and colored with burnt sugar. “Coffee” adulterated with chicory. “Cream” testing 12 per cent butter- fat, thickened with gelatin and color« ed with annato. “Pickles” colored with copper s alts, C.

Grown from an Almost Unknown Science to a Useful Profession. “In the last ten years,” says the Yearbook of the Department of Agri- culture for 1907, ‘forestry has’advanc- ed in this country from an almost unknown science to a useful, growing profession. In that time the number of technically trained foresters has increased from less than a dozen to over 400. Ten years ago there was not a single forest school in the coun- try; now there areseveral professional forest schools which rank with those of Europe, and a score more with courses in elementary forestry whose usefulness is steadily growing. Forest lands under management have grown from one or two tracts to many, ag- gregating 7,503,000 acres, scattered through 39 States. The National Forest have increased from 39,000,000 acres, practically unused and unpro- tected, to 165,000,000 acres, used, guarded, and improved both in pro- ductiveness and accessibility. The number of states which have state forests has increased from 1 to 10; and of those which employ trained forest- ers from none to 11: The membership of forest associations has increased from 3,600 to 15,800. Ten years ago, except for a few of the foremost botan- ists, European foresters knew more about American forests than did the people of this country. In Europe they were then using preservatives to prolong the service of beech ties, and so adding from twenty to forty years to their life. Here, on the other hand, scarcely a treated tie had been laid, though there are now 60 treating plants, 27 of which treat ties exclus- ively, and an engineer who recently returned from Europe reports that both in size and mechanical perfec- tion the treating equipment of this country is ahead of any to be found abroad. “And yet American forestry has only safely passed the experimental stage and got ready todo something. Action, immediate and vigorous, must be taken if the inevitable famine of wood supplies is to be lessened.’ We are now using as much wood in a single year as grows in three, with only twenty years’ supply of virgin growth in sight. Only the applica- tion of forest knowledge with wisdom, method, and energy, in the next ten years, can prevent the starving of national industries for lack of wood. “The woodlot offers an excellent opportunity forthe practice of for- estry. It is accessible enough to allow of moderate cuttings at fre- quent intervals, and it may be protected from {trespass and grazing and fire, its chief enemy, without an elaborate scheme of defence; then taxation is not a great burden, be- cause the revenue from farm supplies more than meets this item every year, and thus prevents the acumulation of interest. “The application of intensivesfor- estry to large tracts will naturally be of limited extent for some time to come, Closer utilization, the setting of a minimum diameter below which trees shall not be cut, to provide for asecond crop, and protection from fire, are conservative measures which are steadily gaining ground. But looking into the future far enough to make provision for a third crop is not yet common, while efforts to bring forest lands to high productive capacity have as yet scarcely been attempted. In wealth of soil and high commercial value of native trees America has a decided advantage over Europe, where intensive forestry is paying well. American corporations and long-time investors, as well as the provident farmer, must go deeper into forestry to reap full reward.” BANK No, 385. BANK STATEMENT.
