"This could. be from Joel tilt} Quiz
Kid but t'is from some other infarr
tile jeenus with figgers, one who
lives up the Humptulips and has
close acquaintance with Olympic
Park," said Thoughtful Bill Haggar-
iy, peering through his specs at one
of two dozen letters 'l’d brought him.
All were on his ideas. as I'd quoted
him in “Out of the. Woods," on the
comparative values of the park and
of the Tillamook Burn in wartime.
“This lad has figgered." the veteran
fire warden went on. “that in normal
times the average visitor to the
park will see, only one out of every
hundred thousand of the magnum
old trees of the park's wilderness
forests.
“I've another letter stuck some-
where in my desk,” Haggerty went
on. “It’s from a. forester lad I
brung up by hand and boot. who
is now over loggin’ in some Pacific
island jungle. He tells all the queer
varieties of trees, and how dens-e
they are and how swampy the land
—and then he says it is nothin’ at
I all for one like, himself, who has
logged in the wet. wet wilderness of
the Olympic Peninsula. He remem-
bered one Olympic spot where the
giant windfalls pyramided sixty feet
high, and each stick sproutin’ hem—
loéks. Any Pacific island jungle is
a. playground compared to the likes
of that."
Now We’ve Got It . . .
The radio came alive and Though-
ful Bill who’d let the dispatcher off
for a bit, attended to a routine re.—
port from a. lookout. Then he went
on elucidating:
“This mathematical sprout of the
Humptulips," he said, plucking up
the boy’s letter again, “says he
knows a lot of places in the Olympic
wilderness and has heard of many
more where a. man dropped into
I them from a plane, would find him-
self in a jungle prison cell at every
turn and where rescue parties
I would be helpless to get to him—
because of the understories, the
swamps, the windfalls, and the like.
“Now, the main idea of the park,
as constituted, is to preserve and
keep that kind of a wilderness. No
roads are to be made through it,
and scant trails for hikers only~
not even for horses.
“Figgel‘ how many will take such
hikin’ trips—how few, I mean. Then,
figger how many trees can actually
be seen by such hikers, compared
to all in the hundreds of thousands
of acres of big-timber, jungle wil-
derness. Then you can appreciate
that the Humptulips lad is not so
far off in his estimate that only one
moss-plastered tree out of each
hundred thousand in this wilderness
neck of the Olympic park will be
seen by the average visitor.
"I’m speakin‘ without rancor or
bias or argynlent," affirmed Though-
ful Bill. “There’s no talkin’ against
the park at this stage of the game.
VVe’ve got it, and that’s settled
Therefore, it’s no harm to anybod,
to take a. full, frank look at what We.
got—and also at. what we ain’t got."
Nobody Has Got the Timber . . .
“By what we ain’t got, I mean the
timber, a. dozen billion board feet of
splendid rotten old trees,” explained
Thoughtful Bill. “Nobody has got
the timber of the park,——the lum-
bermen least of all-and now we
realize the public—the tourists, et
cetry, who will visit the park—won’t
get hardly any of same, either.
“I mean, they’ll get to,see, and
what park poets call enjoy, one tree
out of a. hundred thousand, more or
less. All the trees but these few will
be the same as though they did not
exist, as far as sufferin’ and sinful
humanity is concerned. A Hindoo
could argy that therefore the said
timber does not truly exist—and
maybe he’d be right. How could he
be proved wrong? You may say the
wilderness treetops at least can be
seen from high peaks, or from
planes. Yes? When are you goin’
to climb a mountain or fly over in
a plane to see for yourself? So long
as you don’t, why those superb rot-
ten old trees don’t exist for you
except by hearsay.
“Hundreds of thousands of acres
with a. dozen billion feet of timber
on it, and all could just as well as
not be a hole in the ground,” con-
cluded Thoughtful Bill. “That is
for all the good it will 'ever be to
the miserable human race. The
which I say advisedly, acceptin’ as
I do it will always be a. park."
IGood Grass Silage Makes Ideal Feed
lFro-m First Crop Says'Dr. Otto J. Hill
Legumes, such as alfalfa or will be forced out of use, OPA
].
Good grass silage and good hay.
have virtually the same feeding
value but there are several rea—
sons why it is dcsirable to make
silage from the first cutting of
hay fields, says Dr. Otto J. Hill,
extension dairyman at the State
College of \Nashington. l
Weather is one reason favoring
silage. Often it is too wet to make
hay when fields should be cut and
delaying the cutting means the
crops continue to mature and lose
much of their feed value. But
silage can be made even in wet;
weather when it is impossible to‘
make hay. I
“Plants cut relatively, immature
maintain much more protéii} and
total iceuing‘ value than thO'Se al.-
lowed to mature before cuttrfig,‘l“”
Hill says. “And this year when we “
need to save all the feed possible
we can not take acllance on los-
ing some of it because of poor
hay making weather.”
Grasses for stock or trench si-:
los should be cut when they are
about two-thirds headed out. If
the field has both early and late
maturing grasses; it is not' advis-
] able to wait for the late maturing
varieties to head cut.
Dig In, But Not Too Deep In
IVictory Garden; May Kill Plants
clover, should be cut in the early
bloom stage; alfalfa preferably at
about 10 per cent bloom, and
clover about 50 per cent bloom.
High moisture content does not
seem to be harmful with ":I‘stack
or trench silo, but if the crop is
put in an upright silo it's best to
wilt it for a short time. Wilting
for about three hours on a sunny
day will cutlmoisture content to
about 70 per cent, which is about
right for an upright silo.
As a rule grailssil e contains
about two to four timesas much
carotene as hay, and if the grass
silage,is__made when the crop is
immature, the protein content
may be twice as gregit as that Of
gyrnade ,when out too mature.
Still another advantage for Sil-
age is. by cuttingthe first crop
earlier than it would normally be
made into hay a better second
gcutting is likely.
Farmers interested in making
silage may obtain two bulletins
exylaining how to do it from the
county agent. One is circular No.
57 “Grass Silage,” and the other
“Staclch’cnch Silos." Both are
available without cost.

Deep cultivation cuts off many
