MRS. GOULD SUED.
Dressmakers Declare She Owes Them
More Than $4,000

New York, April 1l.-Mrs Howard
Gould has been sued for a dressmak
er's bill by Mary f. Smith and Mar
guerite Dillon, modistes. They assert
that Mrs. Gould owes them $2,lS5 for
material and services. Lawyer Jacob
Marks represents the plaintiffs, aCd
William +. Howe has been retained by
Mrs. Gould. The dressmakerS say
they have been sending Miss Gould
bills until they are tired.
The complaint sets forth that Mrs.
Gould brought to them some valuable
old laces to be made up into dresses.
and that she also ordered a cloth dress
the material for which could not be
had in this country. The women say
they sent abroad for the cloth at con
siderable expense They were re-
quired to furnish the lace dresses in
three days, and the cloth dress in
two weeks, and they declare that they
have lived up to their contract, spar
ing no time, trouble or reasonable eX-
pense in order to satisfy their wealthy
customer
Mr. Howe said: We are willing
to spend thousands for defense, but
not one penny for tribute. These NO
men evidently think because Mrs
Gould is married to a wealthy man
she is legitimate prey She does not
propose to be imposed on one bit Sh"

A single acre of Washington timber,
recently measured by the division of
forestry, contained 21S,690 feet b. NJ
of red fir, II 900 feet of hemlock and
5000 feet of cedar; making a total
stand of 236 $50 feet The smallest fir
on the acre was feet in diameter and
the largest, S feet. The height of the
forest Appropriated 300 feet. The
hemlock was scaled own to 90 inches
III diameter and had it been scaled to
II or Ia inches, as customary in the
east, the stand would have been seve-
raj thousand feet greater. This acre
was measured near Wilkeson, Wash
ington, about 80 miles from Tacoma.
The average stand per acre for 131
acres measured by the same party
near Buckley, in the same county. was
14,402 feet of red fir, 30,105 feet of
hemlock, 5000 feet of cedar 2,175 feet
of spruce. and 593 feet of white fir; a
total stand of 1926 feet In these
measurements no trees less than 2
feet in diameter were sealed No al
lowance however, was made in the
above calculation for Gull. The 131
acres were taken in various parts of a
township and represent with fair ac-
curacy the stand throughout that
township. The significance of these
figures is apparent when it is remem-
bered chat 10000 feet per acre is con-
si1hred heavy stand in all lumber
regions east of the Mississippi.

fhe Deering Harvester company Of
Chicago has applied to the division of
forestry for a working plan for its
5i-000-acre tract of hardwood timber
in southeastern Missouri. This
marks what is probably the first at
tempt of an American manufacturing
establishment to employ modern forest
methods in raising hardwood timber
for its own use.
The timber owned by the company
consists chiefly Of oak. ash. and hick-
DRY, woods especially adapted to the
manufacture Of agricultural nipple
mcuts The owners intend to remove
all the less valuable species, such as
cottonwood gum, honey locust and
cypress 50 as to give the others all
possible advantage for growth. A plan
viii be made by which the merchant
able timber may be removed without
injury to the producing power OF the
forest The division will send experts
80 the tract to make the observations
necessary Tor such a plan.

The western hemlock is to be the
subject of q special investigation this
SUMMER by the division of forestry and
a party of experts will spend several
months in the Puget sound region
making observations and measure
ments of that species of homlock,
Although one OF the largest and
most widely distributed trees in the
Pacific northwest, it suffers from the
prejudice against the eastern hcmlock
a closely allied. bur much inferior
species and for this reason has almost
no commercial value 1t grows at its
best on the cool damp slopes of the
Washington and Oregon mountains,
where it is frequently 200 feet high
and 10 feet in diameter, or even larger
IN favorable situations. 1t occasional
~ forms 4 dense, pure forest but is
more often mixed with red fir, the
most important timber tree OF the
northwest, and is usually left stand
no sale for the lumber
The wood OF the western hemlock is
less apt to be shaky, is stronger, more
durable, and more easily worked than
that of the eastern species. The bark
is said to contain much more tannin.
BY the present method of numbering
immense quantities of hemlock are de
stroyed annually, for it is left to be
burned by the fires which frequently
follow the removal of the fir, 1t is be-
ievcd that if this hemlock can be given
its true value before the public log
ging methods may be modified, and
even if the market develops slowly
there will be q greater effort to pre-
vent waste.
An important feature Of this iuvesti-
cation will be to ascertain the rate Of
growth and the time required to pro
duce understandable stand. The
western hemlock possesses remarkable
powers Of reproduction and may be
counted on to rctorest l0gged-otf
afeas
