TRAINING THE BEAGLE 
( Continued, from page 493) 
may be worked with others, and finally 
a pack of half a dozen or more may be 
worked together. 
A pack of six beagles trained in this 
way will work independently at starting 
rabbits and then work together once the 
rabbit has been started. 
In a pack of six beagles trained as 
herein directed there is likely to be one 
that is a little timid, lacking confidence 
in himself and showing a disposition to 
rely on the other dogs. Such a beagle 
should be kept out of the pack for a time 
and he given plenty of work alone, or 
with a young beagle which could not do 
better work. When he becomes self-re- 
liant he may be put into the pack again. 
Every beagle in the pack should be 
thoroughly independent, and so far as 
possible they should be selected with 
reference to their speed. A pack made 
up of fast and slow dogs is not a desir- 
able hunting pack. Better have six slow 
dogs of even pace than to have some fast 
and some slow. 
A WELL-TRAINED, even running 
-FA p ac k of beagles is more difficult to 
obtain than one might suppose. To get 
such a pack a great deal of training and 
selecting is necessary. The pleasure 
such a pack affords is worth the time and 
pains it takes to mould the pack into the 
thing desired. 
In preparing a beagle for the hunting 
season, too much importance can hardly 
be attached to condition. No dog can go 
fast or stay long if compelled to carry a 
load of superfluous dog meat with him, 
and yet it will not do to starve him down 
to the right thing. He must have a suf- 
ficient quantity of the right kind of food 
and be brought down to running trim by 
hard work, and this work must be in a 
rabbit country, where he can acquire 
actual experience on game at the same 
time he is hardening his muscles and re- 
ducing flesh. 
RESPONSIBILITY OF UTIL- 
IZATION 
( Continued from page 493) 
do not regard all land wasted that is not 
drained or planted to corn or cabbage. 
We know that streams render service as 
highways of transportation and advocate 
their development as such ; but we are not 
convinced that the great rivers must in- 
evitably be turned into mere canals (to 
say nothing of sewers). We believe, in 
short, that man has a multiplicity of 
wants and that the condition is not most 
healthful when a few of these wants are 
supplied at the sacrifice of all others. 
We run counter to no economic laws. 
Economists, it is said, like the word util- 
ity because they can employ it in a par- 
ticularly broad sense. They do not limit 
the significance of the term to the meas- 
ure of value of dollars and cents, but 
recognize what may be called the psycho- 
logical utility of things. To the econo- 
mist it is easy to see that a lake or a 
stream in pure and more or less natural 
condition possesses utility apart from its 
usefulness to commerce and even apart 
from its contribution of food supply, if 
it affords means of recreation and sport 
through fishing and boating, if it pos- 
sesses along its shores and in its border 
lands harbors for birds and other sorts 
of game, and, if it contributes to the 
mental and physical relaxation and in- 
tellectual and spiritual stimulation that 
are as necessary to man as bread. We 
did not originate the dictum that man 
cannot live by bread alone. 
Let me then put into a few words 
what I have tried to say regarding the 
responsibility of utilization. We ad- 
vocate not that our streams, lakes, 
swamps and other wet lands be pre- 
served from proper uses, but that they 
be utilized for the purposes for which 
they possess greatest utility in the long 
run. We are not unmindful of the uses 
of streams which are most commonly 
recognized, though we emphasize those 
uses which now receive the least con- 
sideration. Our policy, far from being 
obstructive, is preeminently construc- 
tive. If we dared to preach as conser- 
vationists, our theme might be- — a proper 
balance in utilizing our natural endow- 
ment; our text could be — “who giveth 
us richly all things to enjoy.” 
FOREST CONSERVATION 
To the Editor of Forest and Stream: 
A N editorial under the heading “Save 
the Redwoods,” in a recent issue of 
your magazine, interested me greatly. 
I am glad to know that at least one 
magazine of outdoor life is making an 
effort to arouse the people to a realiza- 
tion of the fact that our forests are in 
danger of exhaustion. Not only are 
the redwoods in danger of destruction 
due to the wasteful methods used by the 
privately owned lumber outfits in their 
greed for profits, but all of the mer- 
chantable timber in the United States 
is fast disappearing. 
The hills of Washington are so cov- 
ered with down timber that it is diffi- 
cult to walk over them. This timber 
is left to rot, because it is split or 
broken so badly that the logging com- 
panies cannot make a large enough 
profit on it, to induce them to put it on 
the market. And while this timber is 
rotting on the hills millions of Ameri- 
can families are homeless, and millions 
go home, tired from their days’ work, to 
spend the long winter evenings shiver- 
ing because of lack of fuel. Under a 
more sane system not a foot of this 
timber would be wasted. 
And much of this upland that is not 
adapted to farming, would be replanted 
to timber. 
So more power to you in your fight 
for the conservation of the forests for 
future generations.
