RESERVE LANDS TO BE SELECTED Forestry Bureau Establishes Temporary Office Here with , Dan W. Adams in Charge. 1 A branch office of the forestry bu reau is stabllshed, at least temporarily, In this city with Dun W. Adams In charge. Mr. Adams was sent here by the pnrenu In connection with tho se lection of lund to be purchased by the government In the Mount Mitchell and Pisgah sections for the national forest reserve. The land so purchased Is first looked over by an agent of the service, and It his report Is favorable, .then other men are sent to arrange for -.the purchase. Mr. Adams' duties are to investigate such lands and his office, for the present, is situated in the court library of the federal building. These purchases for a national for est reserve are made direct from the owners of the land and the last session of congress made provision that 12. 000,000 be set aside for the next live, years to be devoted to such purchases, and this money will be devoted to reserves in the White mountains and other eastern ranges and the Southern Appalachian range. The latter in cludes the plats abovo referred to ami the Nantahala range In Tennessee, be sides others In Georgia. The prices paid run from 12. SO to $8 an acre and only forest lands are to be bought, no farm lands to be considered unless In very small tracts. Arrangements have already been made for the purchase of about 110,000 acres of forest land In the' Mount Mitchell reserve and It Is likely that this will he finally taken over by the government next spring and then the office here will become administrative for the management of the reserve. Rangers anil guards will be appointed, the lands will be regularly patrolled, fire stations will be established, and later on a system will be Installed by which forest tires may be located and sulllclent apuHratus provided to han dle whatever fires may break out. This nystem Is said to bo a very excellent one and was perfected by Mr. Adams, while he 'was In the service In the west. It Is widely used there and has saved the government thousands of dollars already In overcoming destruc tive forert fires. There Is really no boundary limit to these reterves, as Is generally mippoa ed, but wherever the government finds lands that seem to be available as re serves, they will IK' bought If satisfac tory arrangements cun be made. The old timber will be cut from the lands anil Ihe bent young .growth left. Hunt ing and uhtng will not be disallowed on the p server, as mimy seem to think. The olect of tho government Is the conserving of present resources. There are few liegaar In rVllser lalid, liflil, two-llftbs of Ihe ndnll pop ulation have depimilH in blink.

But. to bo really honest, it must be admitted that the disease is seldom more thun "arrested," Some thing more is needed. . j'.c'Kirians Alterative is a medicine made for the cure of Tuberculosis. It has cured this disease again and again. Often these cures have been effected where- the , surroundings were not Ideal, where no Intelligent care was taken of the patient, where money. was scarce; good food and good cook ing anusual yet cures resulted.
