TREE BLAzEs AS EVIDENCE.
Courts Accept Them in Preference to
 Testimony of Title Deeds.

There is in the rooms of the engineering de- Rartment at the Massachusetts Institute d,.ls, oi
 in the country. It consists of a dozen ''blazes cut from tree trunks and serves the young an object lesson In the importance of @ pecu- liar kind of evidence that Is accepted as hnal by the law courts of the Northern states IT land disputes when carefully drawn plans and properly attested title deeds have been set aside as untrustworthy.
 Blazes. the sharp. glancing cuts in . tree which expose the fresh wood beneath the bark. are not only used to indicate the course of a trsii through the woods, but are employed ny the imaginary line which divides forest tracts of different ownership, so knowledge of how made a generation or more ago is a very nec- essary part of the equipment of the modern civil engineer.
 closely may be the exact boundary. cut ting into the fresh blaze first an arrow which points the direction in which his line passes. signature. In States where tnwnshi,s are lsld out with regularity and get of nt their also registers the distsnca and direction of this fixed landmark at each even mile. So. TO matter how careless he may be in his writ ten descriptions or how far in error In his calculations, he leaves Ion the spot' evidence of his measurements which Is ineffaceable so long as the trees remain standing;
 way on tree trunks is remarkable. nature having provided that while a tree adds new heal oter entirely. tho wound simply drawing together and forming an outer covering which never attaches itself to the inner core. At first this appears as an indentation. but in time its thickened edges turn outward and form an excrescence, so 1t Is always to be de- tected by the experienced woodsman and can be cut out in the presence of witnesses and brought into court.
 These curious bits of evidence gain their in- portance largely from the fact that they can- not be made to lie in any particular. for na- ture has arranged that they shall fix dates as accurately as they preserve inscriptions. The outer shell which has grown over the blaze is shaved away and the rings in the wood beneath the bark counted. and in the Northern States, where the difference of seasons Is so sharp that tree has never been known to take on more than one layer in a year. their count fixes the year when the record was made with absolute exactness. In most of the Southern States. of course. this rule of date does not hold. since a tree may take on more than a single ring each year in 6 milder eli- mate.
