4 THE MACON TELEGRAPHi FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 20, 1901 THE MACON TELEGRAPH Published Every Morning and Twlce-a-Week by lie Mn<*nn Telegraph rnlilfahlng Co, 563 Mulberry Street. Macon. Ga. President and Manager. A SHORT COHN CHOI*. The situation in the Middle West Is not only trying but serious in more ways than one. It hiui been ao dry and hot for so many weeks that not only dooa the temperature vary from 100 to 218 at different polnta but "dry timber and parched uotdoor woodwork have been aet on Are by direct heat of the aun, and In aomo localities railway tracks have been ao expanded by heat that they have been rendered temporlly Uriel*.” This la enough to take the March out of anybody or anything and It la not aurprlelng to hear through a Topeka dispatch that the Populist organisa tions of Kaneaa are "decadent” and that ihe Democrats of the state are trying to acoop them in while they are comparatively helpless. The ruling passion Is strong In death, however. These decadent Kansas Populists, we are told, still "cling to Bryan and bis free silver theories,” and are "oven more bitter against the Eastern, or so- called gold Democracy, than toward the Republican organization.” (Such la the color of the genuine liryan coat. It nmy bo remurks.l In pualng.) Hut of inoro Importance than the wilting of Populists la the parching of the com Holds all through the Middle West region. In the territory ao long rev a gad by drought nearly three- fourths of the country's com crop ls a annually produced. Our average crop la about 2.000,000,000 bushels. A good half of this yield la harvested in the alx states of Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. Last year the six states named produced 1,120.000,000, the two states of Iowa and Nebraska alone yielding 511,000,000 bushels, or nearly one-half the sum credited to the six largest corn pro ducers. It Ip astonishing to learn that tho other thirty-nine states of tho Union grew last year only 220,000,000 and that their average yield Is no greater. They do not grow corn for export except on ii small scale. Tho Injury to the corn belt, therefore, not only means loss to the corn planters, but loss to the rail road* and Hteuinrhlp* and a decreased Inflow of money from abroad. Already price# In corn have advanced, for even a ^needy termination of the drought will not prevent a great cutting down of the average crop. Farmers In Geor gia and elsewhere who harvest a sur plus of corn this year are likely toget l« r il»et will cause them to regret n »t having planted a larger acreage. \ I’MOM'DIIOI s Ni;uilO COLONV, time Htn f it tvna announced that tho negro«s of Atlanta had pur chased h tract of 4,000 acres off land "' v,, n miles from that city, with view to the establishment of a colony « f thnr rare. This has led the New Orleans Times-Democrat to dcmrlbe a similar undertaking at Mound Hayou, in tli'- \ ax'M> Delta of Mlsklssfppl, T. M m Jeffersoi ncry, for «*• they* acquired an appelll* »d*r shoots of the sussr cans. I Idea U and panther* were iTw far. 1 don Boei.ty of ArW Dr. \V. Schick i ihowed that while consumption of wood In the four leading countrle. of Europe has Increased to fourtesn cubic feet tier capita per annum, and will aoon reach twenty feet, the world'e timber supply Is rapidly diminishing, and that If tho supply continues to diminish at the present rate and the demand like wise Increases a timber famine through out the world must result. The making of the United States gov ernment’s division of forestry Into a bureau on July 1, as provided for toy the last eession of congress, was there for# a timely event. The appropria tion for the division of forestry during the year just ended was 888.520, end for the previous year 128,520.. The appro prlation for the new buresu of forestry durlhg the first year • was 1185,440. These respective sums show how rap idly the government's forest work Is growing and Ita Increased Importance In the public estimation. The bureau of forestry Is made up of the. division of forest management, the division of forest Investigation, and 'ihe division of records. Each of these continues, with enlarged facilities, work which was In progress under the old division of forestry. The change from a divis ion to a bureau, and the larger appro prlation, will make poaslble both an Improved office organisation and more extended field work. Thle latter work hae been In progreee during the peat year from Maine to Texaa and from Florida to Washington. It Includes ’’the study of forest condi tions and forest problems all over tbe country, tho giving of advice to own ers of forest lands ,end the eupervle- Ing of conaervatlve lumbering opera tions, which Illustrate forest manage ment on business principles," We are told that private owners aa well as several atate governments have applied for the aid of tho bureau, but that the greateet demand cornea from tho de partment of the interior, where the su perrlelon of which are about forty-sev en millions acres of forcet reserve!. It Is stated that tbe result of the work of tho division has already been to change practical forestry In this country from a doubtful experiment Into an assured auccese. There aro 185 persons engaged In the service of the bureau and field work I* to bo done thle eummer In no lees then sev enteen states. In addition to tho work ulri-udy mention'd "special studies of earns of the most Important trees, com mcrclully, have been made, from which can be calculated their probablo futur yield. Cheep methods of harvesting the prseent lumber crop without In Jurlng the productivity of the forest have been put In operation. Mean while, the work of tree planting, par ticularly In the almost treeless West ern states of ths plains, has been fur thered; the relation of the forest to the volume of streams, erosion, evapo ration and Irrigation have been studied; matters connected with Irrl gallon and water supply bee been In veetlgated; hopeful progress has been made In the direction of regulating grating In the Western reserves, a manner fair both to the Important Interests of cattle and sheep owners and to thoae who look to the reserves as a source of continuous eupply wood and water; and atuilles of forest Urea were conducted with a view reducing the great yearly looa from thla source, a loaa which haa been es timated st 150,000.00." Tho proapecta of the accomplishment of a great and vitally Important work by the bureau of forestry are bright There need be no lumber famine If our past wasteful and destruclttve meth ode aro corrected and are ei by proper management providing for the harvesting of rich lumber cr without Injuring the productivity the forest areas.

"We trusted In Gold’s help and for eign Intervention," wrote President Steyn. of the Orange Free State, In the official correspondence with the Trans veal authorities, which the British hive captured and published. The latter de pendence was a broken reed, Indeed, and as for the former.

Griffin News; That talk of a south Georgian being entitled to the gover norship la very much like the talk of a Southern man for president.

Griffin Call; Picking presidential can didates and naming Georgia governors is consuming entirely too much time of the average Georgian. With watermel ons and peaches ripening on our hands, with cotton and corn to follow, we had better let politics alone.
