NAMES INDUSTRY.
Gathering the HemIock Bark fer the
TAnneries.
Lewiston (Maine) Journal.

Lewiston (Maine) Journal.
One of the big industries carried OIL
in some portions of Maine is the cut
ting of hemlock bark to supply the big
tanneries. The tannery at Island Falls,
owned by Frank w. Hunt & Co.. con-
sumes 10000 to $4,000 cords of bark an
nually, which means the chopping
down of from 100000 to 100000 trees to
furnish the same, and total outlay
of over $50, 600.
The time for peeling this great guam
tity of tree clothing is during June
and July, sometimes extending a little
into August
This year, T. H. Tingley, who super
intends the bark operations of the
Island Falls tannery, had in his en-
ploy over 1000 men in twenty camps
in different parts of this section, and
he estimates that they have peeled
49, 900 to 10000 cords.
Four men make up a peeIing crew.
First, the chopper, who averages to
cut about forty trees per day, though
in some small growth he will cut near
ly 100 NEXT comes the man who limbs
the trees and clears away the tops;
then the marker and ringer, who, IL
turn, is followed by the man who uses
the bark spud and peels off the bark.
If the day is pleasant each crew puts
up about four cords.
Their camps are in most cases minia-
ture villages made up of small huts
covered with bark or tarred paper,
and holding two or three men each.
After the peeling is all done the
yarding begins. when the bark IS
hauled to convenient points and care
fully piled up in long piles where II
will remain until snow flies
Five men and a horse make up d
yarding crew, the bark all being
hauled on jumpers In January teams
will be put on to haul to the tannery
or to the railroad line. For hauling
by teams, racks are made and placed
upon two sleds, the racks generally
being twenty-four feet long with six
or seVen-foot stakes.

PERFECTLY PRACTICARIE

To the Editor of the Globe
Your correspondent, Aug Cirkel in vour
issue of today says:
1T seems singular that while civilized neo-
pie have taken the utmost precaution with
their unit of measure, as the yard or meter
to prevent change of lengths, they have ne,
greeted TO provide for a stable unit of value ;"
1t would, indeed, be very singular if the
omission were mere case of neglect Rut
is 1t likely that civilized people would have
omitted to provide a unit of value if thev
could have seen way to do it?
In your comment upon Mr.. Cirkels arti-
Gle you say;
"All must admit that neither gold nor sill
yer is commodity perfectly stable in its
value"
Is any commodity stable in value? The
value of eommdity consists in what some
value), and if nobody will give anything fo-
1t, what value has it? Therefore can there
be a fixed or permanent standard of what is
in its nature capricicus and variable? This
impossibflfty seems to account reasonably for
the fact noted by you, that there never has
been IAN unvarying standard of exchange
As to the multiple standard. it may be
equitable, but is it practicable? Was it not,
or something very like it, tried in Massa-
Addison NJ Burt.
Our correspondent should remember
that value is a ratio. This ratio varies
as either of the commodities compared
fiuctuates. If. however. it can be so
arranged that changes on one side Of
the sign of equality are always balanc-
ed by corresponding changes on the
other side, the ratio itself remains sta
BILE. AS to the equity of the multiple
standard there can be, of course. no
question. Mr.. Burt is right in suppos-

adopted in Massachusetts a century
ago, we believe. The circumstances
were so different and the scheme so
limited that this has obviously no
bearing upon the adoption Of such
standard today. If a man had tried
to publish a daily newspaper in Mas
sachusetts hundred years ago. which

the time honored exercises at the
chapel were conducted, as usual, by
President Andrews. He did not make

he entered the building, he received a
tremendous ovation from the students.
His annual address was on ''Some I'm

Questions" This was based on the re-
suit of his personal Investigations and
observations while abroad last year.

up to dollar bpshel and the worklngman ian

What your free silver contemporaries may
be saying in protest is not material. Our

the tired out nervous system to healthy

is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centres in the stomach,
gently stimulates the liver and kidneys,
