THE FORESTRY QUESTION.
The Department Of Agriculture Is Working
for the Preservation Of Western
ForastS.

1UlOnGS
There is one subject of interest to the
western country, to which the govern
ment is at this time giving especial at
tention. 1t is tree planting. While the
forestry division Of the department of
agriculture is supposed to look into for
estry questions for the entire United
States, as a matter of fact, special direc-
ton is now being devoted by the new
forester, Clifford Pinchot, to the condi-
tions in the plains states and the Rocky
mountain states. The forests have such
a close relation to the moisture supply
and the general subject of agriculture
in the west that the department of agri-
culture foresees the necessity Of making
an investigation which will show the
exact condition OF the forests and
wooded mountains whence come the
rivers and streams, and the effect of the
deforestization which Is now going on
through the cuttings of the lumbermen
and d%evastations from fires.
During the past twenty years q great
deal has been done in the way of tree
planting in the west, the timber-culture
law being enacted by congress in the
hope of building up tree areas. This
law generally proved a dismal failure,
vet a vast amount Of artificial tree plant
ing has been successful. While the
forestry division Is in favor of anything
which will p%erpetuate or propagate tree
areas, 1t is proposed In the first place,
before going into any planting schemes,
to carefully collect all the data which

good, and above all - so was his
digestion.
No man should be old before his time
because of a weak stomach, sluggish
liver, shaky nerves and fabby muscles.
There is no need of it. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery cures these
things. 1t brings back youth to the
feeble because it brings back keen appc-
tite and good digestion. 1t tones up the
liver, puts oxygen and life into the
blood, and solid strength into the flesh
and muscles. 1t contains no alcohol to
inebriate OF create a morbid appetite or
craving for stiinulants.

The Minute.t Of shells.

Among the minute %existences upon
the face Of the globe that have been ele-
waited by means Of the microscope into
an honored position Of Independence are
the foraminefera, mostly marine atoms
inhabiting many ohambered cells. At
one time they were CONSIDERED mollusca,
at another they were ranked among
the infusoria and eventually they were
settled comfortably in the subkingdom
~protozoa. The c~alcareous shells have
in the past formed vast deposits Of
chalk. They are often today oongregat-
ed as realms of sand.
These animals are not always mi
mute, but generally they are subjects
:imperatively demanding the lens. An
ounce Of sand has been known to con-
tain 1000 Of their shells, and in the
West Indies the figure once a into
millions. Your object under the naked
eye seems to be merely a pinch Of brown
sand; under the microscope You have a
great variety Of the loveliest lilliputian
shells, representing every variety OF
form known to the oonohologist.

LIGHTS OUT.

How often in our little boat
On summer evenings we would float.
Careless Of time, of east and west,
Ceasing from idle talk and jest,
AS DER the waters restless flow,
Drifted in cadence sweet and low,
That p%laintive bugle call
Lights out!"
How through the old fort it would ring.
Strange echoes from the classmates bring,
While we would wait, our oars at rest
Upon the rivers peaceful breast,
And watch the yellow lamp CLEANS die
At the silvery warming sigh
Of that plaintive bugle call
flights out!"
From faroff camp, from land of fears,
Ger wastes Of distance, parting, tears,
Comes the familiar sound of old,
Our life in darkness to enfold.
Alone, upon life's troubled sea,
The fateful message comes to me,
OF that p~laintive bugle call
"Lights out!"

can be found on the subject Of tree
planting. 1t is sometimes fully as i'm
portant to have the evidence of a failure
as of a success, for if the experiment
has been we'll made, the knowledge OF
its failure will obviate the necessity for
further trial. In this connection, Prof.
j. w. Tourney, the botanist of the Arr
zona experiment station and a practical
forester, is now making a tour through
the west in the intesests of the agricul-
tural department. The government for
ester, himself, Mr.. Pinchot, is also about
to start on a trip into the northwest,
taking with him a forestry class, con-
sisting of young men who are making a
special study of the subject.
While forestry has not yet come to be
generally considered an important
branch of the government, the subject
is one which is undoubtedly coming to
the front in this country; and forestry
and irrigation are destined soc to be, if
they are not already, the two leading
problems for the west. Great natural
resources and vast areas of uncut timber
in the United States have kept the at
tention of the people from the necessity
for some such line of action by the gov
eminent as is practiscd in European
countries, where this branch of agricul-
ture is recognized as of the highest i'm
portance. France, Germany, Italy and
other continental countries are as care
full of their forests as of their water
ways, and hundreds of thousands of dol
lars are spent annually by their govern
ments in retaining worn out and waste
land by planting it with trees, while the
crow forests are administered by the
governments with distinct profit to
the state.
1t will be a long time, Mr.. Pinchot
says, before the forests of the United
SGates are managed as he would like tC
see them; namely, after the manner In
vogue in European countries, where the
forestry question is an old one and the
word ''virgin" is unknown. There the
most absolute system in forest manage
ment prevails and growth and rotation
of forest crops are made as much of a
study as any other branch of agricul-
ture. Mr.. Pinchot does think, however,
that there is large opportunity in this
country, at very slight cost to the own
ers, in time to reproduce great forest
areas, which now, when the Original
timber crop is cut, are abandoned to fire
and left to grow in scrub-worthless
monuments to mans progress.
Forest fires, he says, form one of the
most important branches of forest inves
tigation and determine the nature o
forest growth to a greater extent thai
any other one condition, excepting TEN
perature--far greater than humidity OF
fertility. 1t is a well known fact thai
entire tracts of land which are covered
with one class of trees, after a destruc
tive fire grow up to entirely different
species-sometimes inferior, sometimes
superior to the original growth. Both
the department of agriculture and the
interior department are fully alive tc
the Importance of the forest fire ques'
ton, and it is believed that important
results will develop from the investiga'
lions which are now being made on this
subject.

Down we went on our knees and ex.

oil from the river now. In an instant
we were wide awake. We followed up
the trail till we came to the top Of a
dune, where the sand was driven to-
agHther in a hard, compact mass, and
the footprints could be distinctly
made out. Kasim dropped on his knees

a country church he found that the neces-
