U.S. ESTABLISHES ALIEN TREE TEST Watch Ability of Species to Become Acclimatized, By XEA Service PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 17. “Ellis Islands” for immigrant, traps are being established by the United States forest service in several of its foreign regions. - At Wind River, sixty miles from Portland, an arboretum of this type now has some seventy-five different alien species of trees growing In small groups. These trees are carefully watched by Government men at the experiment station there, and their ability to become acclimatized is studied. Among the trees at Wind River are the famous Araucaria lmbricata, or monkey puzzle trees from South America, Japanese larch, cedar of Lehannon from the Mount of Olives, African cedar, Chinese elm, Hindu pine, and the more familiar Norway spruce and Scotch pine. Here also are American pioneers from other regions, such as the Arizona longleaf pine, the giant sequoia, curiously branching digger pine from California, red pine from the lake Stages, western white pine from Idaho, loblolly pine from Georgia. Colorado blue spruce, Maine white spruce, red cedar from Virginia, western hemlock of Alaska, black gum from the swamps of Florida and white ash from the Ohio River bottomlands. Many of these trees, perhaps never before taking root in the Pacific northwest, have found conditions to their liking and are growing rapidly and thriftily. The lodgepole pine from Colorado and the knobcone pine of California are the tallest trees now in this collection. In contrast with these are the whitebark pine, which is only five inches tall, and the Mexican pine one inch taller. Many of the trees tried have failed entirely, due to unsuitable climate. Frost has been the greatest enemy. Several of the surviving species, despite their tender age. are already bearing seed. Such are the Japanese larch. Norway spruce, Scotch pine, and a number of domestic species. Dean Boynton to Speak Dean Percy H.

Active Members of the S. A. T. U. The Active Members of the Society of Amermif i ican Telephone Users are the Patrons of the telephones in the United States, The telephone toils they pay, generally by the month, sometimes by each call, are the DUES they are charged for the maintenance of the service that is provided for them by the society. These active members of this vast society have made it possible for the human voice to carry from Maine to Calirorrna, from Main Street to First Street. Their desire for co-operation among themselves mover* coming the handicaps of space and time has developed one of the greatest industries of the world and is today maintaining the greatest co-operative society in the United States. The Active Membership of the S. A. T. U. supports, gov* eras, directs and utilizes telephony. For it and by it have been produced wonders of science, marvels of organizations and model plants. The active membership leases, for its own ase, indeterminately , all the physical property of all the telephone companies that exist in the United States. It is the purchaser of the entire output of a great industry, which it sustains to supply itself, alone. There is no other customer for Telephony and because of that fact, it exercises a complete control over every agency that serves it We view the Active Membership of the S. A.T. U. as the MASTER of Telephony whose needs must be served, whose dues must he earned, whose voice must be answered and whose demands may never be ignored ®As one vast organization which has grown steadily since the voice of man first vibrated over wires, the Users of the Telephone have controlled the Industry and today that industry can have no other purpose than to serve it.
