This Indlcafes an Incnasing tendency to Invest In Government swurttles and shows a growing incllnatttin on the imh .trash of Investors fo tako advantage of Iho favorable yields which cun be obt^iinoil Xrom the sevenal treasury Issues. Tho Government Loan Organization calls at¬ tention to the fact that not In flfty years have Government securities sold on a basis so favorable to holders.
Thc tendency toward ab.soiption of war Issues by the investing public, deai'Iy indicated in these ftgure.s. Is of considerable Interest to bankers and Tjusiness men bent uism improving gen er6l cretllt conditions. .Xs.sumlng that Ihe continued purchase of tJovernmont securities for Investment purposes in- dteates Increasing practic*- ot thrift and saving, thc nation may well regard this movement as an omen of a t)etter day for thc material growth of fhe country. It Is Important to bear in mind that the only permanent solution of the gen¬ eral credit situation lies in replenish¬ ing hundreds of bilUon.s of dollars worth of capldil d^sroyed by waj:.;fcjrj?ij»>v^«le can f»e repaired only through national and Individual saving. One of fhe .saf est ways fo oncourago Investment on ' thepavt of the i-ank and flle is to urge pUrtjhase. of United States Govcrnnient securities. Inasmuch as thc risk Is neg¬ ligible. In this connection fhe Govern¬ ment Ixjan Orgnnlzntlon suggests to em¬ ployers that fhey fake advantage of their contact with tho multitudes of American earners to explain to thom how easy It Is to Invest tholr money in Govemment securities. Any bank¬ ing Institution wllj glstlly .serve them In connection with purcba.ves of Liberty Bonds, Victory Notes and the smaller denominations of Treasury Saving Cer¬ tifleates. Kvery Post Offlce sells sav¬ ings securities ranging from 25 cents to '$1,000.

Lin coin called tbem 'acluntes to defeat tbe government.' probably because ot tbeir tendency to work at cross purposes with ,j,rf,i tho regular branches, and to itb.«iorb their functions.
"A study of the goTonunental organl-: eation of last year will show that there were 39 separate governmental agea- cies baadliag eogineormg, architectural, and public works functions of related | kinds; 26 engaged la surveying or map- j ^'^ making 27 separate and distinct ' ageitcies with authority to build; IS authorised to build roads; 19 engaged in hydraulic oonstruc¬ tioa; IS working on rivers; 'IS doing chemical investigation connected with public 'works; 23 doing engineering and research, and 10 engaged in public land functions. As Oeneral Marshall, bead of the Aarmy Construction DivL-^ion. pointed out: 'Over In the Department of Commerce the census officer works j with the Bureau of Fisheries, while weights, mea.sures, concrete and photo- i motry InThe-Bureau of Standards have their chambers right alongside the fog¬ horns of the lighthouse. In thc Treas¬ ury Department the I'ublic Health Ser¬ vice, the Supervising .\rchltcct, the Di¬ rector of the Mint, tho War Risk Bu¬ reau, and the Coast Guard lio down to- i:othe^; in tho Department of the Inte- "ior we ha*! tho Pen.sion Offlco and the ¦Maska Kngineering Commission, and the Bureau of Kducatlon pulls in har¬ ness with Ht. Klizabeth's Hospital for the Insane. If governniont work is <ivcr to be done ola cost comparable to that of commercial construction, the methods of handling it must be kept apace with tho.s<! in commercial life.'
"What we want, and what tho Re¬ publican party proposes to give, is an .actual survey of ^11 the.se agencies with a view to centralizing them with their proper departments, bringing, so far as po.ssible, all related functions under ono bureau, lopi)ln.g oft tho.se which aro not necessary. This would moan a huge re¬ duction in thc number of persons now employed in govemment work, and tho prevention of a vast amount of dupli- Cittion. At present we have no central administration, such as you will flnd in groat business corpor-ations. to handle
n.t serious Interference with routine." "What wovM become of tbe Employ-
who lo.'t their Jobs. Uncle Ted?" eg Ruth. "Private Industries would employ thone who were competent," re¬ plied Uncle Ted. "but you see the way it , i.s now. Jack. I'ncle Sam with hla departments.

Ten minutes later the old man's dozing was disturbed by no sound save the scratch of the slate pencils.

Itliaoa, .V. v., April 12.—A rapidly in¬ creasing interest In forestry on tho part of thc farmers ot New York State is evidenced by flgures just compiled here by the department of forestry at iho New York State College ot Agri¬ culture. During farmers' week, flgurea show a total of 529 people attended lec- liiros, demonstrations and round tables dealing with forestry topics. A year ugn there WRS an attendance ot 341 at a similar program, while In 1919 tljere were 247.
B(%ldes those attending the lectures on forestry, there were about 1400 who visited the forestry exhibit, which! showed a <'oniplete equipment for the 1 iiinking ot maple sirup and mapK>| sugar, examples of trees suitable for' forest planting in New York State, as' well as suggoHtions for the develop¬ ment of the farm woodlot.
In view of the fact that New York State contains more than a million acres not now productive but which foresters say may advantageously be planted to forest trees, the steadily in¬ creasing Interest In forest planting is considered ot great hnportance. :^- sldcs this, there are more than four million acres of farm woodlot.
Opportunity wus given In the ex¬ hibit, as well as in the siiecial Iei;tures dealing with that subject, for those in¬ terested to ask queatlona about forest planting and woodlot management. The visitors at tbe exhibit represented the , ownership of between 30,000 and 50,000 ' acres of forest or waate land.
