Ia Hub West terrible forest fires had been kaging almost every tuqimef but little attention was pnid In the East to the reports Now and then Hough .of these conflagration men declared that our fu and other lure timber auivply was In danger unless steps were taken to replace the tree destroyed by these fires or by the lumbering methods then In vogue! But America, evidently believing that our forests, like some ef oh other natural resources, were Inexhaustible, laughed at these "cranks and went merrily ea Its wasteful way. Strangely enough the great Chlcage fire ef 1871 helped turn the thought ef the nation to forest resources. That was the summer of one of the greatest drouths le the history of the country. From July 8 to October 0, with the exception of two small showers la September, no rain foil In the major portion of the Middle West. Forest Urea awept over a great part ef northern Michigan and Wisconsin and raged unhindered through the country .where streams, ponds and marsh lands had dried up. The East heard again about forest fires but tt didn't worry much about them. Why wonder about a few thousand trees, anyway? Ships were to be built of Iron and buildings of brick, and coni was the fuel of the fnture, they said. Then In October, 1871, the whole problem of drouth and fire was dramatized la tbe great tragedy In Chicago and It helped turn the national consciousness to our future timber supply. The direct result was that congress appropriated $2,000 and employed Hough te Investigate Out-otimber conditions In the United State hie report, sent to congresa by President R. R. llayes, grew a national forestry policy which, although slow In developing, has made constant progress during the last GO years. The successive steps In that development have been as follows; 1800 Act creating division ef forestry la Department of Agriculture, June 30. 1SD1 President authorized to establish forest reserves Jilarch 3.

The man who did thaf was Franklin D. Hough, "tlie first for est agent of the United States, and he Is being honored this year In a particularly appropriate manner. Chnrles Lathrop Pack, president of the American Tree ' association and one of the lending apostles of Scientific forestry In this country, has begun the edition of his fa distribution of the forty-thirmous "Forestry Primer and this edition Is dedl rated to Hough. This edition will make 4,300,000 copies of the booklet which Mr. Pack has given to schools and colleges since the first edition was printed In January, 1020. Although Houghs fame as the "first forest agent will be thus broadcast throughout the United States, It Is a curious fact that he Is already better known for some of his other activities than he Is for his work In behalf of forestry. Look In almost any cyclopedia of bl ography and you will find him listed as an ou thor and historian with more emphasis laid Uiun me prolific writings than upon his work as a preacher of the doctrine of "Plant trees I Franklin Benjamin Hough (one wonders If he were named for the Immortal Ben Franklin and, If so, why the two given nnmes were thus trans posed I) was born In Mnrtlnsburgh, N. Y., July 20, 1822, the son of Dr. lloratlo Hough, who had emigrated from Southwlck, Mass., In 1707, and was the first physician In Lewis county, New York. After his graduation from Union college in 1843, young Hough prepared to follow In his fathers footsteps by entering Cleveland Medical college, from which he was graduated five years later. Even during his college career scientific Investigation outside bis chosen field of medicine Interested him and In 1847 he published his first work "A Catalogue of Plants Crowing Without Cultivation In Lewis County, New York."

Lack of exercise Is fully as common cause of overweight as increasing the amount ef food eaten. Two litdivldunls may exercise and eat alike, yet one sleep an hoar longer than the other.
