Georgia Pine Days Are Limited.

At recent meeting Of the promi-
nent sawmill men of Georgia, COM
pilation Of statistics was made, show
ing the aggregate amount of standing
timber In Georgia, with the following
results:
One million five hundred thousand
acres, averaging $500 feet Of mer-
charitable timber to the acre.
Total in feet, 4,5O0,00O,OO0.
Daily cut Of mills, 100000.
At this rate, six years will complete
ly exhaust all the timber in Georgia.
With this condition confronting the
lumbermen of Georgia, we submit that
the situation requires most careful
and considerable treatment.
Nothing which will put off the evil
day should be neglected.
Furthermore, where this timber Is
gone, 1t is gone. 1t cannot be repro
duced during the life of any one oper-
ating in Georgia to-day. Therefore,
IL 1t has got to go, make those who
take 1t pay for 1t. Every mill man in
the State of Georgia, and in other yell
low pine States as well, should combine
or do something to advance the price
Of yellow pine, so as they get the full
benefits of the only crop they will ever
harvest-Lumber Trade Journal.

Until very snort time the bronze
statuary in some of the Berlin mu-
seums was most carefully labeled
Hands off," just as it is in many
American museums. What happened
in Berlin, however. may cause the
curators of some of our museums to
take down their signs. 1t was OBJ
served in Berlin that those parts of
the bronze statues which were sur
reptitiously handled by the public re-
tanned good surface. This led to
the conclusion that fat had something
to do with it. An experiment was
therefore tried for some years with
four bronzes. One was coated every
day with oil and wiped with a cloth:
another was washed every day with
water; the third was similarly washed,
but was oiled twice a year, and the
fourth was left untouched, just as our
bronzes remain isolated behind the
notices Hands off. The first looked
beautiful; the third, which had been
oiled twice year, was passable; the
second looked dead, and the fourth
was dull and black. 1t is probably a
fact not generally known that the
ancient Greeks polished their statues
by constant hand rubbing. Perhaps
the curators above mentioned, who
have charge of statues and other
adornments, will profit by the expert
ment here described.

A special committee of the Brooklyn
Board of Education has recommended
the. establishment of q new type of
Girls High School 1t is proposed
that Brooklyn's new Girls High
School shall teach its pupils only the
ordinary English branches, emitting
all other studies which, while they
fit girls for professional pursuits, do
not fit them in any way for the COM
mon, every day work of the average
American woman. They will be
taught, instead, the use OF all kinds
of light machinery used in manu-
featuring establishments, and of such
common tools as housekeeping women
have constantly to use. And they
will be given thorough knowledge
of foods, cookery and of sanitary
science as applied to keeping homes
clean and healthy. Gardening will
also be taught to them, so that they
will know how to plant and raise
common vegetables and flowers. It
is proposed for the purpose, to locate
the school in, some suburban section
of the city. with ample grounds for
gardening work. incidentally, the
care of common farm animals, cows,
hens and poultry generally, will also
be subject of instruction.

and commends the practice which is
followed by the Bank of England of
destroying all its notes that come

such course. Where the notes are
very old they are destroyed, it is true,
but every note ought to be as soon as
it gets in the hands of the govern

is probably not very frequent, but. at
the same time, there are cases on

AUTOMOBILE TIRES.


An Important Question That Has Not
Yet Been Settled.
The tire question is one for which
the manufacturers of automobiles
have not yet found satisfactory an
swer. The most vulnerable part Of
the vehicle Is the rim of the wheels,
and In order to insure comfort, safety
and beauty experiments have been
made by nearly all manufacturers
than is known to the people outside
Of the business. The monster pneu-
matte tires are unsightly, and give
the vehicles ponderous and I'M
wieldy appearance, besides being ex-
pensive. In order to overcome these
objections tires of various sizes,
shapes and designs have been made
and are being used for the purpose of
determining which is the most prac-
ticable.
Among the recent patterns lisa square
tire with corrugated surface, which is
n great improvement on the old bal
loon in looks, although its manufac-
turers have not tested it sufficiently
to give an opinion on it's lasting prop
critics. Some of the newest pleasure
vehicles have a narrow wheel and
tire correspondingly small, and the
life Of these tires is also being watch
ed closely.
only careful investigation" said
manufacturer, will solve the prob
lem. We have nothing except the BIZ
cycle tire to go by, and must get our
knowledge through expensive expert
ments."
The cost of rubber tires justifies a
large outlay for the purpose Of dis
covering which Is the most durable
pattern and design. Tires cost from
$50 to $50 each, and some of the spe-
cial patterns are still more expensive.
The experiments with the various tires
are being watched with much atten-
ton by the people who are interested
in the horseless trucks, because the
heavy vehicles will require tires of
great strength. The solid rubber tire
has been used with some success in
heavy vehicles, and is having its share
of attention in the tests which are
now being made.-New York Tribune.

We quote the following from lecture
recently delivered by a noted scientist
before the convention Of Scientists In
Columbus. o.:
Among scientists there IL a practical
agreement the world over but the theo-
loTians are In q constant state Of violent
disagreement. The scientist welcomes
every new theory, and gives willing
place 10 unexpected discoveries. The
theologlan irowns at new things. and
fights to the last against new light. The
scientist regards truth a. something
that IL unfolding. unfinished, IN state
Of evolution. Tho theologian tenaciously
clings to his last dogma a. something
finished, incapable Of improvement, In
iallible, lmpeccable. In the mind Of the
scientist God IL creating the world now.
