Disappearing Before the Worlds Inereas-

Disappearing Before the Worlds 1nereas.
ing Consumption.
DR.. w. Schlich, the we'll known for
est expert, in a recent address before
the London Society of Arts predicte
a positive timber famine in the nea.
future unless systematic measures for
increasing the worlds supply be speed
lily adopted He pointed out that the
use of wood, in spite Of itsreplacement
by coal as fuel and by steel in con-
struction, was steadily increasing. The
per capita consumption in the four
chief countries of Europe is now Ia
cubic feet each year, and in few
years will probably reach 20 cubic iSPt.
For this increase the use of woo n
paper making seems chiefly RESPONSE
BILE. The steady rise in prices, espe-
cially of coniferous woods, in spite OF
much cheaper transportation, shows
that the worlds supplies are rapidly
diminishing.
Only rive out of IS European coun-
tries export more timber than they i'm
port Scandinavia and Russia are the
principal exporters. The limit Of pro
duction in the former seems to Yhave
been reached. Russia still has large
forests, but domestic demands are rap
idly increasing, and an exportable sur
plus cannot long be depended upon.
The North American supplies are
visibly declining China has no tim-
Der to spare, and that country, when
developed on modern lines, will be
an importer rather than an export Ter
There remains the rest of Asia, With
Africa, America and Africa as sources
Of supply. But these do not furnish
any considerable amount of confer
Gus woods, which are most in demand
Dr. Schlich therefore concluded thai
the danger was practically at haT
and that deficiency of all kinds wol
soon occur unless remedial measures
were adopted.
The remedy is easy, although time
is required for its application. 1t is.
as DR.. Schlich pointed out, to culti-
vate timber upon waste land just &
other crops are cultivated upon MOI
fertile soil. In Great Britain ale
there are 25, OOO, 900 acres ofsuchla Is
One quarter of this area, DR.. Scnlich
asserted would make the country in

the declining timber industry of the
United States.
That this remedy will have to BE-
adopted soon is evident, for natura

Vienna Is SDitefuI.

From the New York Journal of Commerce.
What is the matter with Vienna? Our
trade with Austria is much smaller than
that of several other countries. We believe
the only distinctively Austrian trade we
have directly attacked by our legislation
was the pearl button industry. Austria Is
not a great exporter of the sort of things
that We send abroad. and there is no par
tfcular competition between this country
and Austria in neutral markets. And yet
Vienna is the center from which all talk
about European combination against the
tmted States emanateS. Less than four
years ago it was Count Gouchowski who
appealed for such concerted resistance to
the powerful republic of the west. From
time to time since then have heard from
Vienna OF European anger at our encroact-
mentS ana European determination to get
even with us in some way. And now the
Vienna 'Iageblatt urges a European GUS
toms league against this country and saws
we are the common enemy, and every E,,1-
ropean country singie-handed will succumb
to us, and even united Europe would have
a hard fight. We feel fattered but why is
1t that Austria feels so much more deeply
than any other country of Europe on this
subject

mathematician are found In one and the
same person. That Mr.. Harvey is a mathe-
matician was proved by volume bearing
on the money question which had the sale
of half-baked historical novel. The
presses for awhile could hardly supply the
demand. That he is poet every one must
concede who considers the tone of his part
ing proclamation and his choice of a home
when, as he believed. civilization had
failed.
But that is neither here nor there If
Mr.. Harvey is alive it is still time for him
to repair the injury he has done himself
ard others. For of course he has been
missed. and if he will return. will gladly be
welcomed back. And now is the season for
returning. Everything is booming. Big
figures are the order of the day No
mathematician can study them unmoved,
and Mr. Harvey would probably revel in
them. What If they do knock the spots
out of his prophecies? What if they do
make his retreat under fire look a little
silly? Let him come back and take his
pen In hand again. and he may become a
plutocrat himself. simply by figuring up
the enormous profits of his companions in
those old political campaigns predicated on
calamity and hard luck

New developments in American agricul-
ture are being reported from time to time,
leading to the belief that eventually this
country will yield a line of soil products
differing widely from those now in evil
dence. Tea is being grown with consid-
cradle success in some of the southern
states. Wine grapes once thought to be
exclusively the product Of Europe have
found congenial soils here. While these
importations are being fostercd, changes
are occurring i'll the habitat Of certain of
the domestic plants The latest Of these
to show marked shift or rather extern
sion of position. is tobacco whicn has been
introduced into Minnesota with such sue
cess that recent reports suggest that in
a few seasons that state will have become
one of the most important producers in
the country. Tobacco has heretofore been
generally associated with The warmer Sec
tions of the country, and the most famous
brands are grown in the scmi-tropical re-
gions. But it has also been grown with
som" success as far north as Connecticut.
The quality of the weed produced IN that
state has never been held highly in favor,
but this may have been due to lhe suspi-
cion that the leaf was not allowed to go
into the manufactured product in it's pris-
tine state. The Minnesota tobacco will
have to outlive this prejudice which the
Connecticut product has caused. 1t is a
significant fact that Dane county, the
largest producer of the weed in Minnesota
lies farther north than Connecticut, while
Ashland county. where TOBACCO is also
grown in considerable quantities, is more
hortherly than the tip of the state of
Maine. Experiments such as these have
demonstrated that the success Of the to-
bacco plant does not depend SO much upon
the climate as upon the character of the
soil. There Is certain element which
gives the weed its richness and flavor, .us.
as other plants depend for their success
upon peculiarities of their nutritive me-
diums. The Department Of Agriculture

growths. It's bulletins on soils and the
geographical phases of American agricul
ture have been of great benefit to the
farmers. There was a substantial reason
for the project. negatived by the last Con-
gress, to map the soils of the United
States. 1t remains question whether the
immediate benefits to be derived would
justify the enormous expense involved:
But it is apparently assured that the de-
partments experiments and announce
ments in this line will not cease, but will
be pressed to permit the farmers in va
rtous parts of the country to adopt scien-
tific principles and to extract a maximum
of value from their soils. There is no fore
casting the changes which may be caused
by this development, persistently pursued,
both in the inclusion in the American
groWths OF plants not now successfully
grown here and in a more economical and
productive arrangement of the native
growths.

National Gallery for washington,

There Is talk among artists and per-

IN Washington of an American national

the fact that the American capital is not

seems to be the inevitable home of such

Changing Aspect of Memorial Day,

Year by year the truth Is pressed upon
the nations consciousness that Memorial
Day is shifting in its character Once it
was designed as the occasion when the men
who fought for the nations integrity might
pay tribute to their dead comrades in arms
and thus stimulate the patriotic spirit of
the whole people. But as the seasons pass
THIS function of remembering the soldier
dead is being placed In other hands. An
other generation is taking up the duty.
Many of the men who last year marched
to the burial places to place flowers upon
the graves of their comrades are now
sleeping forever and some other hands are
paying to them the tribute of memory
1t will not be many years before the last
of the veterans of the sixties has joined the
ranks of those thus honored on this annual
occasion. But II is inconceivable that Me
mortal Day will cease for that reason
Rather will II continue in even more potent
significance. day of memories In truth,
all personal participation past. only the
gratitude of preserved country remaining.
Thus national institution has developed.
founded upon a lasting basis. Other wars
will come, perhaps. one other has al
ready been fought. to add to the reasons
for the custom. Deeds OF valor and sacri-
flee will be performed to make history to
inspire followers of younger generations.
Memorial Day has already a broader sig
nificance because OF the occurrence of the
war with Spain. Now there is common
meeting ground for the sections riven by
the strife which gave birth to the original
ceremonial.
AS this gap is closed by common expert
ences and sriefs and by broader concep-
tions of national unity. Memorial Day will
grow In Importance one o. the repub-
lies fundamcnts. Born of desire to per-
petuate the services of men who fought
against their own countrymen. 1t Is becom-

The Supreme Courts Practical Joke.

When the Supreme Court decisions were
announced last Monday there was a wide
opportunity for the enterprisng afternoon
newspaper to blunder into making wrong
announcement of the net result of the days
work. Justice Browns opinion in the DE
Lima case. considered alone, coming first
as it did, led many persons to conclude that
the government had been beaten. The
newspapers generally pounced upon the op-
portunity to gain time in giving the news
first to their readers, regardless of the
chance that other decisions might upset
their estimates. Consequently the morning
papers have since been enjoying one of the
few jokes which the evening papers ever
afford by their lapses. The Star regards
the situation complacently. for 1t is i'm
