TALKS -IBOUT TREES.

No country on earth produces trees equal to those of the American conti- nent, though India, Persia, and Greece furnish rare specimens of the finest productions. The efforts being made
 by the granger regions of the country to produce trees show a. growing desire for fruit and forest trees. The Depart ment of Agriculture at Washington has
 made extended and thorough investiga- tion and Congress has empowered ag- ricultural chemists to prosecute inquir-
 les upon the subject
 The people of the northern states can
 not too soon give their most earnest attention to the best methods of in- Creasing and preserving our forests. Forests are cheaper than dikes and more effectual than dredges, and their preservation along the head waters of l all commercial lakes and rivers should
 be the first thing both government and people should attend to. Our great commercial rivers and lakes are in dan ger. Millions of dollars are lost annu- ally by floods, and needless inunda tions; droughts do equally as much | IL IS Nell hllUWH LO dsoI IL ul- l tural chemists and all scientific farmers that trees attract moisture from the at
 mosphere, and in regions where dense
 forests abound very little destruction
 is caused by droughts, and in the vlcin- i ity of our largest forests the soil is gen. orally richer and more productive than
 in places where there are no trees. The
 soil does not become so quickly eX- 1 hausted, and take it all in all the trees

 i The production of hardwood lumber | has become one of the greatest commer- | cial interests in the country, and the 1 question now is, how shall our forests l be protected and what are the best
 methods for a rapid and effectual re- plenishment of those which have been
 rudely destroyed.

YALE WON FROM WESLEYAN.

 The Basket Ball Game Played at the
 Gymnasium Last Evening-Score 394
 First Game of the College League
 Series-Schedule of Yale's Games for
 the Rest of the Season-Freshmen Vs.
 New Haven Y. M. c. A. Tomorrow
 Night.
 The first in the series of basket ball games in the college league was played at the Yale gymnasium last evening between the Yale and Wesleyan teams and was good game all through, The game resulted in & score of 39-4 in favor of Yale. The makeup of the two teams was as follows: Yale, left for ward, Marshall '99, captain; right for ward, Sharp '99; center, Rockwell '9S; right center. Beard 99; left center, J. K. Clark '99; right guard, G. c. Moore 'sS; left guard, w. H. Peck '9S.

 The goals of Yale were made by the following men: Marshall (3), Sharp (6), Peck @, Clark (4), Rockwell CD, Beard CD. On a foul made by Wes- leyan Sharp made a goal, thereby mak- ing the odd score. Tower and North made the two goals for Wesleyan Yale played a fine game and in the opinion of good judges the best game the varsity team ever played. Yale's best work was in getting the ball back. The team work was superb. Wesleyan was much quicker. but Yale had the advantage in having taller forwards Sharp and Marshall played the best | game for Yale.
 | No one was hurt in the game except Andrews of Wesleyan who fell and 1 bruised his face. Messrs. May and Buchman of the Yale gymnasium were umpires. The referee was Burr ot Wesleyan; tlmekeeper, c. A. Burden of i Yale.
 l In the latter half & A. Sanford '9s S.. was substituted for Moore on the Yale 1 team.

sugar maple should be cultivated with as much care as any or our CholceSt fruit trees. The sugar productions or the New England states, and especlal- ly the northern portion, IS increasing every year; and the signs are that Yer mont, Maine, and certain portions or New Hampshire, will equal Canada in a few years in bringing to market their finest quality of maple sugar. Ihere- fore, the naples are among our most valuable trees in the variety or uses to which they are adapted.
 The rock maple is of great value TOT timber for the arts, for fuel, and a countless number of uses, While the hard sugar naples are valuable for their sugar productions, and they have no superior for parks and all ornamen- tai purposes. As shade trees along our streets and avenues, they are not only clean but exceedingly beautiful. Culti- vate them till the barren lands and hills are dense maple forests. There cannot be too many of them, either as ornaments or producers of sugar.
 It is well understood by scientific eX- periments that prairie lands or regions
 
 count of the soil or it's peculiar condi- tions. Grass and grain grow there most luXurlantly, and vegetable pro- auctions of all kinds will thrive in pfal- rie soil, and trees may be grown sue cessfully aN over our treeless western plantations. Black walnut, white ash, elms, cottonwood box alder, soft ma- pies, and the willows can be grown in Dakota, also the hard maple, the catal- pa, and cherry trees will flourish in that particular climate. Eastern parts of the state will produce many varieties of fruit. The counties of Brule and Brookings are peculiarly adapted to the growth of cottonwood, white ash, maple and willows; apple and fruit trees will also take kindly to both climate and soil. Northern parts of the state With Dakota, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minne- sota and Nebraska will be found to pro- duce hardy species of forest trees. Cot tonWood, walnut, ash, oaks, cedars and elms will flourish as forest trees. Ma pies, hickory, butternut and evergreen also flourish in those states, and if left to nature will become valuable for ests and not only beautify our country, but will prove the grand industries for coming generations, and this is our plea for the protection of our forest trees. They have been needlessly destroyed. Some states of the western portions of
 the nation have given evidence of pro- gresslve movements in forest culture. Balm of Gilead, soft maple, walnut, beech, birch, and several other forests trees, which cannot stand the cold and long continued freezing of those cli-
 mates, they either become hardened or die out. If they become acclimated they are dwarfed and unhealthy. There | fore, only trees that can withstand all seasons should be planted there.
 | Illinois forest trees are generally com posed of pecan, walnut, maple white | pine, larch, and the farmers are gener- ally as careful of these forests as they are of fruit trees

 Dr. Waldo Jewett and Dr. B. L. Lam bert were with the party and attended him. He recovered consciousness soon after being placed on board the train. It was found at the hospital that Mir. Chadbourne's collar bone was broken.

THE COMING ELECTION.

The village election which takes
place one week from Tuesday
promises to be one of the most ex-
citing ever held in the village.
The question of license will, of
course, be the one most bit
terly contested, owing to the fact
that the two factions are nearly
equally divided and have earnest
workers on both sides. To pre-
dict the result is no easy task.
During the last year, Worthington
has been without saloons.
The no license people say the
town is better for it and the license
element say it is not.
There have been during the
year aud are now several clubs
in operation where members OBJ
tain Intoxicating drinks. The
members of these clubs probably
number about one hundred voters
and whether these members desire
to obtain their fre-water as they
do now or from licensed saloons
will be brought out at the polls
and the way they vote will help to
decide the question.
The no license advocates claim
that the effect on the morals of
the people as whole is better un-
der no license rule than with
saloons as it confines the consump-
ton of liquors tothe members of
clubs, whereas, if saloons we're
running, there would be more
temptation to the moderate drink
ers.
Whatever the result may be, it
will not be won without
hard fight.
