Commercial Club.

The Montgomery Commercial
Club met at the City Hall Monday
night and, although the attendance
was small, the discussions OF the
different movements under way
were OF much benefit to those pre-
sent. The Club decided to find
out as to whether 1t would receive
more encouragement to rock the
Whitcsidc's road or the Tow Mill
road. The Commercial Clu b
means business and the farmers
living along the two roads will do
well to take this matter In hand
and push it. The longest pole
will knock the persimmon.
1t is u conservative estimate to
say that good rock road will add
$500 per acre to the land adjoin-
ing 1t to say nothing Of the con-
vcniencc in getting to town in
bad wcathcr-thc money made in
getting produce to town when
prices are high and the wear and
tear lesscned on harness and vc-
hicl' ;. This road is worth work.
ing .or- the business men OF this
place will do their part. The
question is which road will II be?

Boulder Letter.
Boulder Colo May 26th.

We are informed that you are
having warm weather In old Mis-
souri,. Suffering from heat Mt night
is never known here. About ten
nights ago we discarded one heavy
quilt and only slept under one and
spread but few nights ago my
wife ION the European plan) q.
NJ. Sees, prevailed on our worthy
hostess to please put back another
heavy quilt. He, @. NJ. Sees, is
contemplating buying more heavy
underwear. cool nights Is one OF
the great blessings We enjoy in
this country.
Since my last have seen more OF
Boulder and surroundings than
have had the privilcdgc before.
a friend of mine from Iowa for
mcrly) who has n dandy line rig
took me spin out In the suburbs
south, east and west part OF the
city and surroundings and had a
chance to view more of the beau
ties OF Boulder than has been my
privilege before. While out
some two miles from business por-
tion Of town we could look back
upon the ridge of Mountains COW
cred white with snow, which can
always be seen there as II all new
or mclts oil. IL Is beautiful then to
know that those white snow clad
peaks were forty miles away when
they did not look i've miles away
seems strange To us. We were out
among the fruit and vegetable
farms and no one ever saw finer
prospects than we have. Small
fruit, straw berries, rasbcrrics,
blackbcrrics. grapes, plumbs. ap-
pricots, prunes etc. bid fair for
abundance. Missouri can beat us
ON apples In this locality and
their crop will be short here. Re-
ports are quite fnvoIoblc in some
OF the valleys adjacent to the Ark
River but this does not seem to be
a favorable spot for apples.
Our shade trees here are the soft
maple as Is In Missouri, but they
do not look the same as ours. Tho
bodies of the trees are white many
look as II whitcwashcd, also the
small limbs away up IN large trees
are white and coutrastcd with the
green collage look beautiful.
We arc contemplating "A Missouri
Picnic some time in July and hope
all of you who can will get in to
the band wagon and prepare for a
good time. We contemplate
mountain trip with one night out
trout fishing will be the order OF
the day. May have "snow-ball
game" Have not chosen sides so
enroll soon.
u. S.-Should you wish ticket
call up Phone 1901.
Yours Respectfully,
w. G. CRANDALL.

CHINESE HELLO GIRLS"
Intelligent Young Women Are Pre-
fehred to Men for the Work.

Intelligent Young Women Are Pre-
fefred to Men for the Work.
1t is Reported that San Francisco
may soon\make the very interesting
experiment OF employing Chinese
girls as telephone operators; nearing
which, one wonders whether all the
venerated ancestors in that land OF
degraded womanhood, China, will not
rise en- masse from their graves in
CONSERVATION and protest. The large
number OF Chinese subscribers in San
Francisco, it is said, has long made
it necessary to have a central station
where the operators speak the Chinese
language. Men have neld these posi-
tons heretofore, but the company, it
is said, finds the girls answer its
purpose better. Intelligent girls will
be procured from the mission and a
matron will be engaged to see that
they are properly protected. Six
operators will be needed for the
Chinese system. An interesting
feature of their duties will be the
making Of tea since Chinese etiquette
requires that customers should be
entertained while waiting for the
public telephone. Tea and tobacco
are both furnished at the company's
expense.

DOOR COUNTY OFFICIALS RAISE
UNUSUAL POINT.
NO APPOINTING POWER
Sheriff-eIect Died Before Being lnau-
gurated and Attorney General De-
cides That According to the Stat
utes Resort Must be Had to the
Polls to Choose Successor.
Madison, Dec. II.


The attorney general was yesterday
called upon to determine a question
of election or appointment which has
perhaps never before been presented
in this state. Ernest Haegle, sheriff
elect of Door county, died Saturday
and the district attorney wrote the
attorney general asking the proper
manner in which the vacancy should
be filled.
Ordinarily a vacancy in a county
office is filled by the appointing power
of the governor, but in the present in
stance another election must be called
and held prior to the first Monday in
January, the beginning of the new pc
litical year. The opinion OF the at
torney general is to the effect that &C
cording to the statutes, when for any
reason county officer-elect becomes
unable to qualify for inauguration i'll
to the Office to which he was chosen
at the regular election, a special cleo
ton must be called to elect person
to fill the vacancy that will occur
when the term of the present incum-
bent expires.
Had the man died after entering
upon the duties of his Office his sue
cessor would regularly have been ap-
pointed by the governor. The attor-
ney general informed the district at
torney and the county clerk OF Door
county that it is their duty to cause
special election to be held.

FORESTRY IN THE SOUTH.
Charleston Lumber Firm to Put 10000
Acres Under Forest Management.

EHaFISSLCu Eu!iIDSl rum W TN OO'O0S
Acres Under Forest Management.
Washington, D, c., Dec. 1.-THE
lumber firm of e, P. Burton & Co., of
Charleston, S. c., has asked for the
help OF tne bureau of forestry in man
aging $4,000 acres Of pine forest 30
miles northwest of Charleston, on the
Cooper river The cOmpany's mills
have a capacity Of 100000 boaro
feet a year, and the company wishes to
know, among other things, whether the
yearly increase in growth of it's pres
ent forest is sumcient to supply its
mills. II it should be found not to be
sufficient, the company desires to know
how many additional acres are re-
Quired to make it so,
A party under F, E. Olmsted has
been sent to the field to collect the fig
ures and make the calculations neces-
sary for the working plan that will an
sWer the company's Inquiries. The
forest consists mainly OF loblolly, with
some longleaf and spruce pine, It con-
tains also some large sWamps with
heavy stands OF cypress, gum and oaks,
Logging is done by steam skidders.
The logs are transported by railroad
to Cooper river and RATED to Charles
ton. The working plan will include
an estimate OF the present stand and
what it is producing yearly; an esti-
mate of the number of additional
acres necessary to afford the mill a
sustained supply; a system of protec-
ton from fire; and certain silvicultur-
al work connected with the study Of
the growth Of trees under dicerent con-
ditions. The party will be occupied
during December, January, and Feb
ruary. Owing to the rapid growth OF
the pines in the virgin forest and the
case with which natural reproduction
is obtained, the opportunity is excep-
finally favorable for the application
of practical forestry.
