FOREST RESERYE.
Conmunication from Hon. B. 8.
Eodcy 'oa this Important -
Subject,
The following communication
fr"m Hon. li. S. Kodey, New
Mexico's wide awake delegate to
ongress, explains itself: .
Washington, D. C, )
Jan. 28, 1902. j
Eu:tok Ciukftain:
The enclosed is a copj of a let
ter I have just received from the
Commissioner of the General
Land Office, and by it you can
sec, as we all suspected hereto
fore, that the policy of this gov
ernment is to increase rather
than diminish forest reserves.
You can sec by it that the Gila
Forest Reserve will not be cut
down :is the department has at
present determined. I presume
that the department has adopted
this new liberal policy as to tim
ber cutting upon forest reserves,
-and as to pasturing in the same,
in order to avoid Riving them up.
In my opinion it will be but a
short time until practically all
remaining public land having
timber or brush will be turned
uto forest reserves.
Very truly yours,
"Ii. S. Kodky,
Delegate in Congress from N. M.
General Land Office, )
Washington, D. C,
January 27, 1902. J
JIon. B. S. Kodey,
U. S. House Representatives,
Sir:
: 1 am in receipt, by reference
from the department, of your let
ter of December 5, 1901, inclosing
a petition signed by miners and
other residents of the Cooney
-Mining District within the Gila
Forest Keserve, New Mexico,
praying the elimination of said
district from the reserve.
. I am also in receipt, by refer
ence from the department, for
-proper filing, of a letter address
ed by you to the President, on
January 2, 1902, transmitting a
oiumerously signed petition for
the elimination from the reserve
of certain therein described lands.
. In reply I have the honor to in
form you that the conditions ex
isting in this reserve have been
"made the subject of recent exam
ination by the U. S. Geological
Survey, with the result that, on
December 20, last, the director of
the Geological Survey advised
the Secretary of the Interior as
follows:
. "I return herewith the papers
concerning the proposed reduc
tion of the Gila Kiver Forest Re
serve in New Mexico. Examin
ations made during the past sea
son show that of the area includ
vd within this reserve, the moun
tains are everywhere covered
with a growth of yellow pine
timber, and that most of the
lower country is clothed with
piñón, juniper and oak; that the
arable tracts in the valley of
Wan Francisco river are very
small, and that all the areas
suitable for agriculture have
been taken up and are now in
private lands.
It docs not seem to me advisa
ble or necessary, on any account,
to reduce this reserve. For the
yrotcction of the water supply, it
is desirable that both the yellow
pine and less valuable forests of
the lower country be retained in
the control of the general gov
ernment, in order that the cut
ting may be conducted in such
wanner as not to destroy the pro
ductive influence of the forest.
The same is true regarding the
mines of this region. Unless the
timber supply for the mines is re
tained under the control of the
government, the timber will soon
be destroyed, and in a few years
the mines will be without any
local supply of timber. I do not
mean by this to restrict in any
way the necessary supply of tim
ber to the mines, but Í believe
that while supplying the mines
with all the timber they require,
provisions can be made for the
regrowth, and destruction of
timber by fire can be prevented.
On these accounts I do not
recommend that the reserve be
reduced."
; Upon consideration of this re
port, the department directs this
office to take no further action on
Ibt proposed reduction in the
area of this reserve.

Sew York Clnh Woman Makes an In
tenntlnj Comparlxon.
New York News: Members of
the Eclectic club held a meeting
at Delmonico's to nominate offi
cers for the ensuing year yester
day. Mrs. George Howe Wink
ler is the rival of Mrs. Mark W.
Potter for the vice presidency.
It has been reported that the
former had revealed club secrets,
and the discussion of this fur
nished powder for the explosion.
Explanations were given and re
ceived in silence.
Then Mrs. Potter addressed
the meeting, declaring women to
be more adaptable, more culti
vated and generally better read
than men.
Mrs. Richard Stearns replied:
"The question of the balance be
tween men and women reminds
me of an act I once saw at the
circus called the balancing act.
It was between the elephant and
the goat, and the elephant al
ways balanced the goat. Men
are elephants and we are goats.
Men are more unselfish."
The meeting ended in confusion.

' XoxIoub Down. No Weakening of the
Xerfe. A t'lcnsant Positive Cure
for the Liquor Habit.
It is now generally known and
understood that Drunkenness is a
disease and not a weakness. A
body filled with poisoti, and nerves
completely shattered by periodical
or costant use of intoxicating
liquors, requires an antidote
capable of neutralizing and
eradicating this poison,
destroying the craving
intoxicants. Sufferers may
cure themselves at home without
publicity or loss of time from
business by this wonderful "home
gold cure" which has been
perfected after many years of close
study and treatmentof inebriates.
The faithful use according to
directions of this wonderful
discovery is positively guaranteed
to cure the most obstinate case,
no matter how hard a drinker.
Our records show the marvelous
transformation of thousands of
Drunkarsds i nto sober, industrious
and upright men.
Wives cure your husbands!!
Children cure your fathers!! This
remedy is no sense a nostrum but
is a specific for this disease only,
and is so skillfully devised and
prepared that it is thoroughly
soluble and pleasant to the taste,
so that it can be given in a cup
of tea or coffee without the
knowledge of the person taking
it. Thousands of Drunkards
have cured themselves with this
priceless remedy, and as many
more have been cured and made
temperate men by having the
"cure" administered by loving
friends and relatives without
their knowledge in coffee or tea,
and believe today that they
discontinued drinking of their
own free will. Do not wait. Do
not be deluded by apparent and
misleading "improvement". Drive
out the disease at once and for
all time. The "home cold cure"
is sold at the extremely low price
of One Dollar, thus placing within
reach of everybody a treatment
more effectual than otherscosting
$25 to $50. Full directions
accompany each package. Special
advice by skilled physicians when
requested without extra charge.
Sent prepaid to any part of the
world on receipt of One Dollar.

Something That mil Do You Him.
We know of no way in which
we can be of more service to our
readers than to tell them of
something that will be of real
good to them. For this reason
we want to acquaint them with
what we consider one of the very
best remedies on the market for
coughs, colds, and that alarming
complaint, croup. We refer to
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
We have used it with such pood
results in our family so long that
it has become a household neces
sity. By its prompt use we haven't
any doubt but it has time and
again prevented croup. The
testimony is given upon our own
experience, and we suggest that
our readers, especially those who
have small children, always
keep it in their homes as a safe
guard against croup. Camden

CORN COB PIPES.
Unique Industry that Flourishes In a
Little Missouri Tono.
Washington, Mo., is the home
of the "Missouri meerschaum,"
renowned the world over for its
sweet smoke. Many years ago
a woodturner, having plenty of
time on his hands, created from
a common cob a pipe. Two
years ago he died a rich man.
From his first lot of pipes, sold
at the corner grocery, the manu
facture has increased until today
one house turns out the enormous
number of 17,000,000 cob pipes
annually. They go to nearly
every part of the globe.
The meerschaum cob is found
only in the Missouri river bot
toms and within a radius of
thirty miles of Washington.
The corn on this cob is not un
usual, being about the same as
any other seed corn raised in
Kansas, Nebraska or Iowa, but it
is an extremely solid cob, as hard
as oak. Imitators have taken
the seed and attempted to raise
this corn in various parts of the
country, but have always failed
to mature the cobs properly.
Washington is the center of an
agricultural paradise. The
farmers can be seen driving into
town every day, some of them
with regular caravans, bringing
their cobs to market, and they
get more for their cobs than they
do for the corn on them. The
average price of cobs ranges
from one to two cents a pound.
Some of the farmers have annual
incomes of $4000 derived from
the cob product only.
After the cobs are brought in
from the farms they are seasoned
from one to three years before
they are ready to be "piped."
Soldiers and sailors the world
over and people in many foreign
lands have heard of Missouri
only through one medium the
Missouri meerschaum.
A. E. Howell, Socorro, and W.
M. Borrowdale, Magdalena, the
druggists, will refund you your
money if you are not satisfied
after using Chamberlain's Stom
ach and Liver Tablets. They
cure disorders of the stomach,
biliousness, constipation and
headache. Price, 25 cents. Samp
