Many lessons are to be learned
from Franc, and one of them relates
to the reclamation of waste lands, a
widely discussed subject in the Unit-
ed States just now. Soutl\ of Bor-
deaux an immense area of territory
formerly lay idle. Now the tradi-
tional abhorrence of nature for a
-vacuum is no greater than that of
the French for idleness of any sort.
.Accordingly this land was planted
•with maritime pine, which has play-
'ftd a prominent part in winning the
great war, having been cut out at
the rate of a hundred million board
feet a month. The United States has
already ovedrawn its timber account.
•It needs greater lumber production,
more, perhaps, than increased pro-
duction of food. Whether it would
not he wise to use the present op-
portunity partly for extending sys-
tematic forestry work is a question
worth careful and prompt considera-
tion.—Christian Science Monitor.

local fuel markets, in^the opinion of

; nd until the usual decline in April,
there will be no change.
The price of coal is largely gov-
erned by the wage seal* of labor, he
continued, and as lolig as the miner
receives the present salary, the oper*
ator must realize his profit.
"During the past year the retail
coal dealer was allowed a gross profit
of but $1.50 per ton, for all overhead
expenses and $1. for delivery," he
said.
Local gas rates will not be influ-
enced in the least by the present re-
moval of restrictions, declared J. F.
Owens, general manager of the Ok-
lahoma Gas and Electric company.
