PRAISE FOR T H E HARP.
Maud Morgan, prominent New York harpist and
teacher, quoted in a newspaper interview, says: "The
increasing vogue of the harp is justified. Its beauty,
both as a solo instrument and an orchestra feature, is
making such an appeal that harp ensembles are find-
ing themselves in demand, and parents are teaching
their children the harp instead of the piano. The harp
offers the student a lovely accomplishment or a means
of livelihood definite and substantial. Itself an in-
strument of beauty, it lends dignity and an old-world
grace to the player, man or woman.'"
PRESSING FOREST PROBLEM.
"The most pressing forest problem from a world
standpoint is the necessity of providing adequate
future supplies of soft wood timber, the economists
of the Department of Agriculture report. "This can
be done by using all of the forest land for the con-
tinuous production of timber crops.- At present only
10 to 15 per cent of the world's timber land is so
handled, the rest being regarded as a mine valuable
only for the timber now standing on it." The United
States cannot depend upon the forests of other coun-
tries to augment its own timber supply, according to

the data presented by forest economists. Their com-
prehensive study of world timber conditions shows
that the world's requirements of saw timber will
double within the next fifty years if the rate of in-
crease during the past few years is maintained.
BUSY RECORD DEPARTMENT.
Emma Reynolds is the new manager of the record
department of the Bush & Lane Piano Co., Portland,
Ore. She was formerly in charge of the record de-
partment of the Hyatt- Talking Machine Co., in the
same city. This department in the Bush & Lane
Piano Co. has grown amazingly in the past few
years, considerably owing to the efficiency of Mildred
Klingingsmith, who recently resigned to get married.
A BUSY ROLL
DEPARTMENT
EXPANDS IN SPOKANE.
Bailey's, Inc., 818 Sprague avenue, Spokane, Wash.,
has compelted the remodeling of its store in which
three demonstration rooms were added. Talking ma-
chines, band instruments, records and sheet music are
carried. The company recently purchased The Music
Shop, 722 Riverside, from Ray A. Grombacher, who
opened it four years ago. E. W. Bailey will continue
business in both stores.
BAND INSTRUMENTS SELL W E L L .
The increase in band instrument sales in the J. W.
Jenkins Sons' Music Co., Kansas City, Mo., is one of
the pleasing features of business at this time. Com-
menting on the fact recently J. W. Jenkins, head of
the firm, said that it was quite difficult to keep up
with the demand for the metter class of instruments,
the number of bands having increased to a wonderful
extent.
NEW KNOXVILLE PLANT.
An addition to the Lonsdale plant of the Bruns-
wick-Balke-Collender Co., Knoxville, Tenn., has just
been announced, and plans have been made to build
an assembling plant there within five years, for the
manufacture of Brunswick phonographs. The com-
pany's plans provide for covering the entire block
recently purchased.
FOR FOREST POLICY.
The board of directors of the Music Industries
Chamber of Commerce last week voted in favor of
all propositions concerning the national forest policy
submitted by the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States of America. Among the recommenda-
tions were: That states and municipalities should ac-
quire, reseed, and replant the remainder of such waste
lands.
The committee recommends that Congress
should enact new legislation with reference to other
classes of timberland, to make provision for co-oper-
ation of federal government, state governments, and
timber owners in protection and reproduction of tim-
ber, and also that such new federal legislation should
condition use of federal funds upon the state having
a forestrv or conservation commission.
