MUST ACT NOW IF THE MESCALERO
NATURAL PARK IS TO BE SAVED
MOW we are havrar a fine example of the value of co-
i i operative effort in getting things done in a community
the movement to prevent the ram of the M escalero natnral
park. All it needed to start the wheels going was the an-
nouncement that the great timber reserve is in danger of
destruction by the mistaken act of the commissioner of
Indian affairs. At once the EI Paso Realty board the
junior chamber of commerce the Swards elnb and other
organizations all affiliated with the chamber of commerce
to"k appropriate action and telegrams' and letters have
ueen flying to Washington in the effort to save the ancient
lorest growth.
The people of other southwestern communities are being
reminded that the XescUero natural park is the only
accessible mountain resort ia this part of the southwest
ibat the forests on those majestic uplifts are the only
primeval forests in this region and that every community
snd every family in the southwest are interested with 1
Paso and EI Pasoans in saving the park from despoliation.
There is no national park in all this region. The people
c! the southwest most now go hundreds of miles to reach
any national playground. Yet now is the time to make
provision for the future and set aside adequate recreation
spaces for the millions who are to make their homes in the
southwest It is being done in other parts of the country.
Wfcv should the southwest be not merely neglected bnt
deliberately stripped of the beauties that nature has pro-
vided' It is a shockingly short sighted pe&cy that the Indian
bureaa is adopting in this case. The few thousand dollars
that may be collected from sale of the stumpage will cut
no figure in the enormous government budget but the
natural park will be ruined forever. The trees that will
be cut down have been standine there for centuries. It
would take centuries to renew the forest cover in anything
like its present grandeur and beauty. If the big timber is
cut the people of the next ten generations will see no more
like that which stands there now.
"Forestry experts" deny that the natural park will be
hurt They say that the forest will be better for the re-
moval of the mature trees. They look at the question with
professional eyes coldly disregardful of the sentimental
viewpoint disregardful of the feelings of men and women
who delight in the ancient woods disegardful of consider-
ations of beauty and enjoyment. They think of a tree or of
a forest as a crop which is all very well when a forest has
no higher use t" as a source of timber and fuel. In this
case the higher use the highest use of this forest is as a
playground for the people. Every other consideration must
be subordinated to that.
Typical of the attitude of mind of those forestry men
whose only interest in the forests is as a means of liveli-
hood for themselves the locality where their workaday job
happens to be cast may be cited the action and answer of
a forestry employe inthe Closdcroft district. An El Paso
woman who has owned for roanv vears one of the prettiest
summer cottages on the mountain with an ideal site amid
;ine old trees and with an unsurpassed view found that
one of her best beloved trees bad become diseased. The
tree the largest and oldest on the place some 300 or 400
years of age was apparently sturdy and yet there exuded
from its base an ill smelling liquid with many indkatjeus
that the tree was being destroyed from within'at its base.
She and members of her family repeatedly requested the
forestry expert to look at the tree and suggest some treat-
ment to save it or at least prolong its Kfe. The only word
they could get out of him was that if the tree was sick
the only treatment he would recommend would be to cut it
down and bum it. He refused to go a step out of his way
even to look at the tree.
Now this may be smartly professional and highly scien-
tific but it doesn't appeal to ordinary people. It is jnst
about as respectable as if a physician called to attend a
s ck child should telephone that if the child were skk it
should be killed.
The principles and methods of scientific forestry are all
nght to apply on the forest reserves large or small; it is
well to each folks to reaHie the importance of "cropping"
forests as they crop foodstuffs. Forests can be made per-
manent wealth producers and need not be destroyed in
order to utilise the mature timber. This is all true when
a forest's first and most important use is strictly cemmer-
caL But such principles aneVmethods & not apply and
should not be applied to the Mescalero natural park where
sj tj J. JJ Lj I J.f X O McClnre Newspaper Syndicate.
ByDWIGj Patter And Chatt
the most important use is not commercial but as a play-
ground for all time for all the people of this region.
The beauty and grandeur of the ancient forest are
largely dependent on keeping alive the very ancient trees as
long as possible. Sot a tree should be cut until it becomes
a menace to its neighbors from disease decay or fatal in-
jury by wind or lightning. The woods should be cleared
and kept clear of fallen timber as a safeguard against the
spread of forest fires. Every precaution should be taken
against the spread of tree diseases and pests. Roads trails j
and fire stops should be constructed But the old trees
should be left to stand.
New Hexico Arizona Texas and Oklahoma are inter-
ested in conserving this natural park in the White and
Sacramento mountains. It is not a local or a state ques
tion it is a jaaucr viiai id ou uic people in me suuui i vyvy
west who are entitled to have a national playground set ryr- -
aside ana mean to do everything possible to secure tne per-
manent safeguarding of this ancient forest against the de-
structive acts of the United States Indian commissioner or
any other bureau or bureau chief of the government.
It seems a pity that the forces of government which
onght to be used for the public benefit and exerted to con-
serve and protect what should be conserved are in this
case directed toward destruction and gross injustice.
It is reassuring to see so many forces now at work in
behalf ofA right course; but nothing will restore the forest
once it is ruined and since what is needed is preventive
action nothing should be left undone to bring the Wash'
ington authorities fo feel the pressure of outraged public
sentiment.

wtobz course. After a person has come to El Paso or other
border city from some far northern or eastern point at a
cost of $100 or more another $10 will not stop him from

ture gate an interesting account of
The progress In agriculture that has
been achieved In Mexico In spite of
tne disturbed condition of that coun-
try during the past few years.
"Several buildings of the Mexican
department of agriculture have been
completed" said Senor Maria "and In
addition an agricultural museum and
eight experiment stations have been
established short courses In agricul-
ture are -riven in several of the
schools and plans are under way for
a system of agricultural education for
training a corps of agricultural
specialists. Some notable achieve-
ments have also been recorded In
plant utilization in my country.

was formerly supposed to be of no
commercial value has been found to
yield a good quality of rubber and
plantations are now under cultivation

ber will be' largely utilized for mak-
ing automobile tires and for other
purposes."
"A warning to ranchmen against
feeding- diseased cattle carcasses to
hogs has been sounded by Thomas A.
Bray inspector in charge of the
United States bureau of animal In-
dustry in 1 Paso. A conference of
state and federal officials recently
held In Washington to deal with mat-
ters of tuberculosis eradication in
stock." said Mr. Bray '"brought to
light numerous Instances where hogs
contracted tuberculosis after feeding
on carcasses of tubercular cattle. In
one case nearly an entire drove of
hogs showed lesions of tuberculosis
which at first the owner could sol
account for. Later he admitted to the
veterinarian investigating the case
that several months before he had fed
the hogs the carcass or. & cow tnat
never did very well.'
"The bureau of animal industry
urges livestock owners to have :
careful autonsv made on animals dy
ing on the farm or killed because of
sickness in order that the definite
causa of trouble may be learned.
Carcasses that show lesions of In-
fectious disease should not be fed.
Instead such carcasses should be
eared for so that no part can be eaten
by bogs. Destruction of the carcass
by burning or by deep burial tinder
a liberal application of quick lime is
the proper proceedure In such cases.
Attention should also be paid to the
danger of feedln-g offals from
slaughtered animals to swine as such
a practice Is another source of infection."

nau oeen ziying came aown n a taa
gie or bramble briar bushes near
Uncle Wigglly. Johnnie and Billie
rushed over toward it but not In time
to save their paper toy from being
pnncnou xuij ok notes
"Oh. dear." sla-hed Billie. "She's
spoiled!"
"I should say she was." agreed
Johnnie. "Full of holes! She'll never
fly again!"
"Oh. dont say that!" exclaimed
Uncle Wigglly in his most oily voice.
"I think I can natch vour kite n
again boys so she'll sail as well as
ever."
"Can you? How?" asked BUlle and
Johnnie eagerly.
"With some paste and pieces of
paper." answered the bunny rabbit
gentleman. "Come on! Take the
kite no matter if she has holes in
her. Carry her to my hollow stump
bungalow ril get Nurse Jane Fuaxy
Wusxy my muskrat lady housekeeper
to make me some strong flour paste
and we'll mend that kite so good as
never was."
"Fine'" chattered Billie and Johnnie.
So they carefully took their kite
out from the bramble briar bushes
not tearing the paper any more than
they had to. and soon they were at
Uncle Wiggily's home.
"Please make me some strong
paste. Nurse Jane." begged the bunny
gentleman. "Make it of flour and
water as you did the time the paper
fell down off the celling and I pasted
it back again."
"What'a the matter now?" asked
the muakrat lady.
"Oh. ahe fell into the bramble briar
bushes and she's full of holes r said
Johnnie.
"Of whom are you talking?" asked
Nurse Jane. ""Don't ten me that
Jennie Chipmunk or Squeakie-Bakle
the cousin mouse or Aisle Little tali
la full of holes!" f
-It's Just our kite we call her a
ahe" spoke Billie.
That caused Nurse Jane to feel bet-
ter and she made Uncle Wiggily
some extra strong sticky flour paste
in a teacup. Then tbe rabbit gentle-
man took the paste some pieces of
paper and the torn kite oat on the
back steps and began t- mend the
flying toy while Billie and Johnnie
looked on.
Uncle Wigglly had the kite almost
mended when all of a oncenesc along
came the bad old Skuddlemagoon.
Ah. ha! I smell souse! I must have
souse! In irolna: to carrr von off to
my den and nibble souse off your ears "
eras um oau aKuaaiemagoon to un-
cle Wiggily. The queer old animal
toox nolo or tne sunny rabbit and
began to pull him away from the
stoop.
"Stop! Ston!" chattered BIBIe and
Johnnie. "Let Uncle Wigglly alone "
"I'm going to carry nun on to my
den." howled the Skuddlemagoon
but. somehow or other he could not
pull Uncle Wiggily up off the steps.
"I didn't know you were so stronjr "
panted the SJkuddlemasoon. all out
of breath. "Bet ril pull you loose'"
He gave another strong pull. There

Ob. my t'-roodjies! fre torn my

up before I can pall yon looser and
away he ran. And when Uncle Wigr-
glly tried to g-at np himself he
couldn't: he was fast there.
"And no wonder!" cried Norse Jane.
Tou've been sittynr la some of the
kite paste and yon re stock: fast to

And so it was. Unci "Wlg-fily'a

when Nurse Jane poured a little warm
water around where the banny had
sat in the paste he easily could set
loose and stand np. Then he didn't
sit in any more sticky staff but he
mended the kite and all was well
