STARK COUNTY's FORESTS.

First Annual Report of the Ohio State
Forestry Bureau.
TIE first annual report of the Ohio
State Forestry Bureau, edited by Mr..
AdOlph Leue, Secretary of the Bureau,
has Just been issued. Following is ex-
tTacted from the chapter devoted to
Stark county:
The surface Of Stark county is with
out any ST. liking features. 1t Is gener-
ally rolling, and along the southern
Dor Ter may be called hilly since the
valleys Of some of the draining streams
are cut TO a depth of three hundred feet.
In most parts OF the county the surface
is pleasantly diversified by rounded hills,
with very gantle slopes, and which are
cultivated to their SUBMITS. The valleys
that divide these hills are broad and
shallow, and rarely show precipitOus
sides or exposures OfETock.
The soil is generally light, often loan,
sand or gravel, and was originally Gov
cred with forest composed principally
of oak, but In the central portion of the
county there were many glades and
openings where the timber was light.
This consisted largely of willow oak
and black jack oak, which formed clumps
and islands, separated by spaces over
grown with wild grasses, flowers and
scrub oak From the nature Of the soil,
the farmers of the county have usually
been cultivatOrs of grain, and Stark
has long been famous for its crops Of
| wheat.
The altitude Of the county is from
three hundred and fifty to seven hun
dTed and fiftv feet above Lake Erie: its
eastern portion reaching uD to the great
div DE- or watershed between the Ohio
, AID Lake Erie Like most of other
counties that lie along the watershed,
the surface Of Stark county is dotted
Ovar with lakes. Of these, Congress
Lake, Meyers Lake, Sippo Lake, etc may
| be taken as examples. Here, too, as in
the adjacent counties, we find many
drained or filed lake basins, where peat
and mari now hold the place formerly
occupied by water.
The ex snt of this kind Of surface Is,
| however, not great, as Stark has little
marsh land, and since 1t Ia so abundant
| ly supplied with excellent coal, 1t Is
I scarcely probable thai the scattered
patches of peat will ever become of i'm
pOrtance as q source of fuel. The for
ests of Stark county were already great
ly diminished in size, and their density
was impaired, when, especially in
northwestern Ohio, the work Of clear
ing had scarcely been begun.
The following table which ls based
upon Ohio statistics, shows the extent
of forest ia the county at different per-
iods:

Judge Thomas Seay, who was noml-
mated by the Democratic Convention re-
Gently held In Montgomery for the Office
Of Governor Of Alabama, was born on the
Goth Of November, 1916, in Greene cOun-
ty, that State, and Is therefore In his
fOriieth year. He obtained the rudi-
ments of an education in the schools Of
his native county, and after serving as
private In the Confederate Army, COM
pleted his studies at the Southern Uni
Versity, at Greensboro, Ala, where he
graduated in the class Of 1867. He
adopted law as his profession, and being
admitted to the bar by the Supreme
it with success ever since.
In 1874, at the time when the Thirty
Second Senatorial District Of Alabama
was overwhelmingly Republican, he
was nominated by the Democrats to lead
fOTlOTn hope against their triumphant
opponents. He was defeated In the con-
Test, but largely increased the Demo-
cratic vote; In 1876 he was again nomi-
mated by the Democratic party, and was
elected by large majority. Since then
he has continually served the State as
Senator without opposition, and now
concludes his long term or ten c0nsecU-
tive years as presiding officer Of that
body. He was a member Of the National
Democratic Convention at Cincinnati in
| 1880 which nominated General Hancock,
and has been prominent in the party
conventions of his State. He was, by the
appointment of the Governor, called to
the Bench of the Supreme Court as
| Special Judge In 1885, to determine GER
tain cases which the Court, as cOnsti-
tuted, was incompetent to try; dis
tinction which his learning and his eX-
tensive practice justified before the pro-
fession. If elected he will pass from the
Presidency of the Senate to the Govern
Orship with long experience as legis-
lator, and with reputation for cathO-
licity, for conservatism and for tie de-
termined purpose to forward the ma
terial advancement OF his State.

McKinIey's SolilOquy

On Congress- stormy floor l stand,
And cast wistiul eye,
To senates fair and happy land
Where my possessions lie.
Oh, the transporting raptrOus scene
That rises to my sight,
Sweet sawyer fat and EVarts lean,
And speeches Of delight.
There gen'rOus words that never fail,
On tongues immortal grow,
There peace and stiffness Of the vale,
With milk and honey flow.
No chilling winds nor bitter tears
Can reach that blissful floor;
Defeat and sorrow, each two years
Are felt and feared no more.
When shall 1 reach that happy place
And be forever blest?
When shall see John Shermans face
And on his bosom rest2
Filled with delight my raptured soul
Would here no longer stay,
Though waves OF opposition roll,
Fearless I'd launch away.
