WESTERN RINKS HANDLE RECEIPTS GOVERNMENT DEPOSITORIES FOR FOREST SERVICE MONEY. All Moneys of the Service to be De posited to Credit of U. S. Treas urer. Washington, Nov. 18.—The names of six government depositories which are to handle the receipts of the United States Forest Service, after December 1, when its organization for the administration of the Nation al Forests will be removed from Washington to six field districts in the west, have just been announced. The designation of western banks to handle the moneys received from timber sales, permits for stock graz ing and for special uses of various resources in the National Forests is an innovation which will mean that all the receipts of the Forests Ser vice in the future will be deposited to the credit of the treasurer of the United States and made available for circulation in the part of the country from which it is derived, within the limits of the amounts allowed by law for government deposits, instead of being forwarded to the treasurer at Washington. The banks which have been named and which have all con sented to serve the government are located in the district headquarters of the Forest Service at Denver, Ogden, Albuquerque, Missoula, Portland, and San Francisco. They are as follows: Western Montana National Bank, Missoula, Montana. Headquarters of first district, Including northwestern Washington, northern Idaho, northern Wyoming, and northwestern South Dakota. Denver National Bank, Denver, Colorado. Headquarters of second district, including Colorado, southern Wyoming. South Dakota, northwest ern Minnesota, Nebraska, western Kansas, southeastern Utah. First National Bank. Albuquerque. New Mexico, headquarters of third district, including Arizona, Arkansas. New Mexico, and Oklahoma. First National Bank, at Ogden. Utah, headquarters of fourth district, including Utah, southern Idaho, west ern Wyoming, estern Nevada, and northwestern Arizona. First National Bank. San Francisco. California, headquarters for fifth dis trict, including California and south western Nevada. First National Bank, Portland, Ore gon, headquarters of sixth district, including Washington, Oregon, a small part of northern California, and Alaska. The estimated recepits for the Na tional Forests for the present fiscal year will be approximately $2,000,000, making the receipts from each of the six districts range from $27r>,000 to $250,000. The depositories will re ceive all remittances due the govern ment for use of the National Forests after December 1, and deposit them to the credit of the treasurer of the United States. According to the plan which has been approved by the offi cials of the United States treasury, the Forest Service and the officers of the various depositories, when ti tim ber sale, stock grazing, or special use application is made, the forest super visor will fill out a letter of transmit- tal in duplicate and tell the applicant to remit the amount directly to the national bank which is the depository for the district. Remittances will be in the form of a national bank draft, express or postoffice money order, and will be payable to the bank, since forest supervisors are not allowed to receive money. The letter of trans mittal Is virtually a deposit slip to accompany the remittance. The du plicate copy goes to the district fiscal agent. All remittances will be assembled and checked up at the end of each day, a single certificate of de posit made out by the bank and mail ed to the secretary of the treasury. This simple plan which has required months for the treasury officials and officers of the Forest Service to per fect, is one which will expedite busi ness both for the users of the Na tional Forests and for the force in the office of each district forester, and at the same time will make it possible for the government to de posit the National Forest receipts in western banks, and help the cireulat- Ion in that particular section of the country where it is originally spent. few specialists had knowledge at the time of the Conference of Governors and experts at the White House, In May. The governors carried the spirit of the conference home with them to their own people, and have kept things moving ever since hy appoint ing State Commissions to study ’oca! problems, by writing and speaking upon the subject of conservation, and by keeping in elose and helpful touch with the National Commission. They are ready to take part in the ap proaching joint meeting. The bare announcement that it had been set for December S resulted in a number of acceptances before the formal in vitation of the commission had even got into the mails. When the conservation movement was started, specific information about, the actual state of our resour ces was partly wanting, partly in accessible. Certain facts were broadly known. It was at least un questionable that our resources had been wastefully used, and that some | of them, notably the mines, were sure in time to be completely ex hausted. while others, for example the forests, could still be kept perp: tually useful by right management. The first work was to get the facts, to show exactly what the situation was and how it could be improved by measures that would work. Wit bom an inventory of the resources which should show the present condition of the resources and the way to devel op them to the best advantage, con servation was in danger of staying up in the air. But the work is now practically done. The facts are there, in dollars and cents, tons of coal, board feet of timber, acre-feet and horsepower of water, acres of land. And the' pos sible reform measures have been weighed. The final report to the pre sident will be the necessary supple ment to the addresses at the White House Conference. The note of these addresses was a note of warning. The report is expected to show that the warning must he heeded if the exhaustion of natural resources is not. one day. to impoverish the na tion. and it will also undoubtedly bring out how the country’s resources can be developed so as to last tin* longest possible time and serve the greatest good of tin* people. —Remember the two big dolls at Gaffney Jewelry Co. Washington. Nov. 18.—The much- talked of inventory of the nation's re- seources is now practically complet ed. To consider the material it has brought together the National Con servation Commission has just, an nounced its first full meeting for Tuesday, December I, in Washing ton. At that meeting the first steps will be taken toward putting into tangible shtVpe the results of the six months’ hard work on taking stock of the country’s waters, forests, lands, and minerals. One week Igtor, after the commis sion lias gone over the inventory, it will hold a joint meeting in Washing ton with the government of the States and territories, or their repre sentatives. At this meeting the in ventory will be further discussed and the report which the president, has requested the commission to make to him by January 1, will be formulated. With less than six months in which to make the inventory, the four branches Into which the commission is divided, aided by the co-operation of the governments, have brought to gether what is probably the most useful collection of facts about the material things on which natlonar in dustry and progress are based that has ever been assembled at one time. Reports presenting these facts and pointing out their significance have been prepared. These reports, sum marized and Indexed, will be submit ted to the commission at Its coming meeting. All through the summer general in terest In the work and object of the Conservation Commission has been growing. The public is now well posted on a subject of which only a Store Talk. (By H. E.

Don't put onions and oranges side bv side. The store is therefore make home. a reception room: your callers feel at Dpn't misrepresent your good, to do so is taking chances with your reputa tion. Don't advertise "at cost” too often. To do so excites suspicion in the minds of many. Good light and fresh air in the store, mean increased opportunities for display and sales. Good business stationery, like a pleased customer is a standing ad, sure td bring results. See that the salesforce is thorough ly familiar with the daily announce ments in the newspapers. Talk quality more and price less. If the article is good, the customer is willing to pay more for it. Use the advertising matter sent out by the manufacturers. It is designed for the special purpose of selling goods. Don’t expect your goods to sell themselves. A good article can't speak for Itself until it is in the hands of the buyer. Study the class of people who buy from you and strain a point, if neces sary, to make goods and store appeal to them. Aim to get new customers each day, but remember that a new customer will make a closer inspection of your store than an old one. A When a new customer comes in, please him. If he comes again, please him still more. After that he is likely to be a regular patron.

RATIONAL CURE FOR ECZEMA. No More Dosing the Stomach—Cure the Skin Through the Skin. When you have a scratch on your hand you wash it and then the skin cures itself. You do not take blood medicine to cure a festered wound. ' The best, skin specialists today are agreed that the only way to cure the skin is through the skin. This fact that eczema is a skin dis ease and not. a blood disease is evi dent from statistics which show that nearly all eczema suffers are per fectly healthy in all other ways ex cept as to their skin. If the eczema patients were really suffering from an inward malady, the entire body and not only the skin would be dis eased. You can prove immediaAely the re lief of a true skin cure by using oil of wintergreen as compounded In D. D. D. Prescription. This liquid attacks the disease germs, numbing them while building up the healthy tissue of the skin.
