Issued every Saturday. Subscription price, two dollars a Tear, In advance. Every paper Is stopped at the expiration of the time paid (or. C. M. FUNSTON. Editor. Saturday, January 4, 1902. VOLUME XIX. This issue of The Coconino Son be gins tho nlnutecnth year of its publica tion. During thai time the SUN has recorded many changes in Flagstaff. It has seen the town grow from a vlllago of a few houses to an enterprising town possessing modern Improvements and conveniences and a business center for a large portion, of Northern Ari zona. The SUN has during its exist ence worked for tho interest of Flag staff and Coconino county, and it be lieves that the town and county will continue to prosper and thai its devel opment has just begun. THE Wickenberg Herald is now owned by Dick Hall. The Herald is a live paper and Is doing good work for Wlckenburg. THE Florence Tribune has been sold to Thomas Weedln, of the Florenco Blade. Mr. C, D. Rjppy will retire from the newspaper business. The press of the territory will iuis Bro. Reppy and he will not be long out of the editorial ltarnes. Thomas Weed in is a thorough newspaper man and will give tho people of Pinal county an ex cellent newspaper. The demand for the Holiday number of the Sun exceeded the supply printed and tho edition was exhausted In two days after publication. The demand was both surprising and gratifying to publisher, and shows the great interest of the people of Flagstaff in their homo and the upbuilding of the town. The SUN regrets that the Issue was not larger and promises that the Holiday edition for 1902 will be a better number and that there will be copies enough for every one. Foreat Reserve. The National forest reserves of the United States now cover an area of nearly forty-seven million acres, the first reserve, that of 1,200,000 acres In the Yellowstone National Park, being set aside by executivu decree in 1891. These reserves do not preoludo the cut ting of the timber upon them, but In sure its scientific management so that ills harvested with a view to future cuttings, and what is most important, that the tracts be kept Intact us wood lands. All tho forest reserves are sit uated In mountain regions and on great watersheds where, by their covering and protection of the toll, they act as natural storage reservoirs, regulating the flow of the streams which rise among them, and to a large extent pre venting violent and disastrous freshets. One of tho secondary but Important effects of these forests upon the water sheds Is their nitering action, by which tho amount of sediment which would otherwise bo washed Into the streams is held from them. In these days of largo storage reservoirs which must more and more become the feature of successful irrigation enterprises, free dom from ai It and sediment in the stream is of tho utmost importance, as has been repeatedly shown in investi gations of the geological surTey. It is Imposilbie to foresee, much less to estimate, the national development, especially through agriculture and irri gation, which Ihe-e forest reserves will assist In bringing about, or to calculate the great increase in population, prop erty values and business activities des tlned in titnu to result from them.
