(Prepared by the United State* Department

A demand is growing on the part of
wood-using industries and the public
at large for a national policy of for
estry which will Insure adequate fu
ture supplies of timber and other for
est products, according to Chief For
ester W. B. Greeley. Figures gathered
by the forest service this year, his an
nual report states, showed the extent
of the depletion of the nation’s for
ests, and have served to focus atten
tion oo the fact that the country is
short of growing forests and that
something must be done at once. The

IMPROVED UMFOUI HODUUTIOXAL |
Provision Must Bo Made in Sovcro
Woathor for Animat Food and
Bucculonce—EMORtial for \
• Production of Eggo.
(Pr.-*7.d by the Unltbd State* Department
~ of Agriculture.) v.
During the summer mopths the farm
er’s flofck balances Its ratiop Of grain
and seeds with bugs, worms, and green
s*ulf, and the farmer need not worry
about egg production if his fowls have
been well colled. But winter feeding re
quires that provision be made to supply
the deficiency of animal feed and succu
lence. The absence of these essentials to
good egg production is responsible In
large degree for the falling off in yield
during cold weather.
Animal food, or other feeds rich in
protein, may be easily supplied on
most farms, particularly where skim
milk or buttermilk Is available. The
liking of hens for these dairy by-prod
ucts is a good Indication of the need
for what they contain. Meat scrap is
another excellent protein feed that
has become standard In poultry rations.
Clover and alfalfa leaves provide a
combination of protein feed and green
stuff. Often enough of them may he
swept up from the bam floor where
the hay Is handled. A good way to
prepare them for the flock is to pour
boiling water over them, cover the
.container and let them steam for a
time, when they will be ready to feed
alone or In a mash.
Sprouted oats has become one of the
best-known providers of succulence in
winter. I’lans for making sprouters may
l»e obtained from the Cnlted States De
partment of Agriculture. Mangels and
cabbage, as well as many other vegeta
bles, are appreciated by the hens.
In general, winter feeling Is much the
same as summer feeding. On the gov
ernment poultry /anna the same rations
are used in summer and winter. Of
course. In summer It la unnecessary to
feed succulent feed when the Wlrds
have range and are able to get plenty
of grass, alfalfa, or similar feed. The
farmer's flock, however. Is an exoeie

wide protection from forest Are for
all (-Issues of forest land. Colonel
Greeley atatea. la tbe first and moat
eaaentlal step. It Is Ida belief that
the police (towers of the states offer
the best means of enforcing reason
able requirements against forest de
struction.
Legislation Needed.
The ex|tense of Are protection, the
forester says, should he borne Jointly
by the landowner and the public. He
holds that federal legislation la need-
* ed to provide for a comprehensive
plan of co-operation with the states
In Are prevention and the development
of forestry practice, and the .extensU^
of the natlonaJ forests through pur
chases, through the inclusion of other
timber lands now in federal owner
ship and through exchange.
There are still large quantities'of
timber In the- Cnlted States, the re-
x^port states, hut they are not In the
: right place. More than 60 per cent of
what is left lies west of the Great
Plains, far from the bulk of theroun-
try’s population, agriculture and
manufacture. The country Is taking
abodt ‘J6.000,000,000 feet of wood from
forests each year and Is growing only
6,000,000,OOON. '
Idle Forest Land.
- “We have used up our forests with
out growing new ones.’*’^ays the re
port. “At the bottom of the whole
problem Is Idle forest laiulx The
Cnlted States contains 326,000,000
acres of cut-over or denuded forest
containing no new tlmbeV; 81,000,000
acres of this amount/^ave been com
pletely devastated by^forest fires and
methods of cutting which destroy or
prevent new timber growth.
“The area of idle or largely idle
land is being increased by from 3,000,-
000 to 4,000,000 acres annually as the
cutting and burning of forests con
tinues." These facts, together with
the steadily increasing distance be-
tween the average sawmill and -.the
Rome builder, “have had a vital tear
ing orx the high cost of lumber, which
during the year reached a prohibitive
figure for many uses and checked the
building of homes which is so urgent
ly needed.”

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
—Finding and Finishing Our Task.
This lesson story proves Elijah to
have been a man of like passions as
we are (Jas. 5:17).
1. Elijah's Flight (vv. 1.14). Upon
Ahah’s remm from\the excitement on
Mount Carmel, he told his wife all
that Elijah had done—that even all
her prophets had been hewn to pieces
by the sword. This sc enraged* her
that she sent a message of death to
Elijah, who seems to have been wait
ing at, the gate (vv. 1, 2). This wss
clearly ■ bluff on Jezebel's part.
Though Elijah had courageously
stood before the king ahd the priests
of Baal, he now cowered before this
woman and fled for his life. He seems
to have fnlle<l at his strongest point,
1. Elijah under the Juniper tfee
(vv. 3-7). The Juniper tree was a
shrub of the desert whleli afforded
shelter and protection to travelers !
from the hiiniing sun by day and the I
cold wind by ui^ht. (1) His request |
(v. 4). This was that he might die. !
This was. no dotihL a foolish thing for
hlrn to say. hm let us be ns consid
erate toward him as was (bsi. Tha j
discouragement, and even despnnden- ,
cy. of Kl'Jah was due fn the nervous
strain of about four years of nnusnal !
service for God. which culminated j
<*n Mount Carmel, Such nervous ra-
artlon Is to he expected. (*J) God’s I

etc.. In summer to supply much of tha . His beloved Meep" (I’sa. 127:2). <h) |
feed required. _ He sent sn angel to cook KUJah’s
meal (vv. fl, 7). The angel of tbe Lord
Is usually understood to be the sec
ond member of the Holy Trinity, If
this be correct, then we see Jeltovah-
Jesus preparing food for His servant
Elijah, as He afterward did for Ills j
discouraged disciples by Galilee (John ;
21:10). God again gave him sleep. I
and at the proper time again gave him
food. Though HPJah wanted to die. j
God had something better for him.
! for In a later day He met him with
| the “chariot of the I^rnl" and took .
j him to heaven untouched hy death.
2. Elijah at Horeh (vv. *-14).
(I) God's Interview with Elijah it
the rave (vv. 9. 10). (a) God's ques- !
tlon (v. 9). “What doest thou here, '
Elijah?" This was a atlnglng rebuke. I
though moat kindly given. It Implied j
that Hla appointed messenger waa
now far awky fr.an the field of duty.
Elijah was not where God wanted him.
hut Ood sought hlty where he waw.
How tOwgaed to know that “A God-
forsaking saint la not a God-forsaken
saint!" (b) Elijah’s answer (v. 10).
Elijah tried to vindicate himself by
asserting hla Jealous loyalty to God—
that In spite of all this the people
had not only rejected hla message
and dishonored God. but had sought
to destroy him. (2) God’s Interview
with Elijah OA the MounTTvvr 11-14).
While standing before the Lord on
the mount, God caused a mighty
demonstration of wind, earthquake
and fire to pass before him to show
unto Rim the nature of the work which
he had been doing for God. and to
show him what was lacking In his
work for the fullejpt attainment of
success. Elijah had about him much
of the whirlwind, earthquake and fire.
His work had been* terrifying and
alarming, but it lacked in gentleness
and love.,.
II. Elijah’s Return (vv. 15-18).
Though Elijah had erred, God
brought him again into His service.
How comforting know that God
does not reject His servants because
of their failures In times of despon
dency! He deals with the'm after the
motive of their hearts. Elijah was
nourished and Instructed by the Lord
and then sent on a high mission. God
is a fine psychologist. He took Elijah
out of himself by giving him a new
commission. The most healing min
istry is that of work. Many bereaved
ones^iave been lifted out of them
selves -by active ministry to ^
Before God would come InJHl^ chariot
to talte Elijah home, Heset him upon

(v. 16).
3. To anoint Elisha as his own suc
cessor (vv. 19-21).

SUPPLY BASE FOR BIRDS
-r-
The air forces can be concen
trated against the enemies of
orchard and garden hy setting
up a bns^ of supplies for winter
birds. This is th^ suggestion of
A. C. Burrlll of The Missouri
College ot Agriculture, who fur
ther states that suet trimmings,
"wanned and mixed with bread
crumbs, make an excellent food
to attract birds and help them
survive utwworst storms of win
ter.
Suet molded into a bad and en
closed In a loosely Woven mesh
of twine can he hung inAJree so
that the English sparrow^
not touch It. These suspicious
birds fear to alight on a pend
ant object, but the native winter
birds will eat readily from such
a supply. They will supplement
Uiis food with numberless hiber
nating insects.

my friend. Leo D. Brown, of the t’oa-

“A Heno gent Had, on a Saturday
night, become very much absorbed In
The Tale of Two f’ltlea.’ Particularly
waa he impressed with the description
of the guillotine and the mlsfartunstes
upon whose neck* It descended so dev-
astatingly. The vision preyed u|mo

“Next day hla wife Insisted that he

during an Inordinately long prayer and
dreamed (hat the guillotine waa about
to descend on his bent neck. Wife,
Upon resuming tier seat when the
prayer was over, noticed that her hus

she tapped him lightly upon the hack

Easy to start from the breakfast table with

keep on? Does ambition last, or lag, as the day
develops?
The afternoon “slump'’ is a factor to be count
ed upon, in business or social life.
Usually, there’s a reason.
Nerves whipped by tea or coffee won’t keep
on running, and they won't stand constant
whipping.
Many a man or woman who has wished the
afternoon would be as bright as the morning has
simply been wishing that the nerves wouldn’t
