How the Timber Goes.

One of, perhaps, many little uncon-
sidered ways in which the forests of
the country are being eaten up is in
supplying timber fer railway trestle
work. There are 1000 miles of trestle
structure in the United States, accord
ing to the estimate by the forestry di-
vision. This trestle work has to be
replaced entirely every nine years on
an average and every year timber
amounting to 26O, 600, 900 feet board
measure, is used for this purpose.
Nearly all the timber is cut from the
largest and finest trees. The annual
expenditure on this work is estimated
at about 81, 600. OOO.-Glen Falls lore. J
