IEiold For sciontifio. STUDY.

The National Geographic Magazine
suggests afield for sclentific study, now
neglected, in which q man of wealth.
might bo most useful to tho cause OF
human knowledge. Tho field Is the
volcanic belt reaching from Martinique
to the Pacific.
Since early In 1902 the volcanoes Of
this belt have been almost constantly
In eruption. The overwhelming trag-
edy Of ST. Pierre attracted worldwide
attention, but losses Of life running In.
to thousands have also occurred Mt the
other end Of this belt. .
The eruption Of Mount Pelee has
been carefully studied by several scien-
lists Of note, but none has studied those
Of the Santa Maria volcano in Guate-
mala and Of Mount Colima In Mexico.
Although these volcanic activities seem
obviously connected, oil the attention
given them by science has been Mt ope
end OF the zone. y E45z'E@ y - y
= THE trouble with oil pnst investiga-
tions of volcanoes,"y. says tho Geo
graphic Magazine, "has been that the
study has not been sufficiently complete
and general. Krakatoa, yesuvius aud
Mauna Loa have been carefully exam
ined and watched,by expert biologists;
but these Investigations have, been
Handicapped by being limited to- n
small area Of activity. An opportunity
like the present one for studying ac-
tive volcanic conditions Mt several con-
Meeting points over n wide region has
never before been Ryesented."",
The Geographic Magazine estimates
that $4,000 would suffice to make the
necessary Investigations. "a wiser OK
penditure for scientific exploration"
1t declarcsC could not he made in view
of. our absolute ignorance Of the causes
Of volcanic action and tho tremendous
revelations that are possible"
At n time when explorations Of the
polar regions, from WHICH, nothing d.
rectly beneficial is expected, are so
literally sustained there should be
very little difficulty in finding patron
for work in field in which so much
direct good may bo accomplished. .....

Forestry and tho Railroads.

Comparatively few people apparent
ly understand and appreciate the prac-
teal work being done by tho bureau Of
forestry Of the department Of agrl-
culture ut Washington. An interesting
application recently came to the bureau
problom Of securing new ties. prob.
lem yearly becoming more difficult Of
solution as the long leafcd pine lumber
grows scnrcer. Yet over hundred
million ties must be used annually
merely to replace those no longer serv-
icenblc, without counting those ncces-
snry for new construction.
The reply OF the bureau Of forestry
was that cheaper woods thon long
leafed pine should be uscdGfor in
stance. beech, birch ana maple. To tho
complaint that these timbcrs rot quick
~ the bureau showed that the Chemin
de Fer dc PEST In Franco has succeeded
In making beech ties last over thirty
years by simply impregnating them
with tar oil. But the advice from the
bureau did not stop at this point; it
suggested that railways should them
selves engage In practical forestry by
acquiring large tracts Of land suitable
for timber; they would thus be as-
sured Of steady supply of ties. Fol
lowing this advice. the New York Cen
tral. Erie, Pennsylvania aud Baltl-
more and Ohio roads are studying the
woodlands along their routes with q
view Of determining where timber
farming mny be carried on most nd
vantagcously.
From the point Of national wealth no
economic problem before the American
people Is more important or Interesting
just now than that OF forestry. The
work OF the bureau ut Washington can
hardly be commended too highly. 1t
has brought the question before the
people In such way rs to appeal both
to the head and to the pockotbook-
In othor words. to theory and practice.

American I4umbcr In tho Orient.

AmericanS lumber In the Orient.
The lumber markets Of the orient and
the shnre which the United States Is
likely to have in supplying them are the
subject Just now Of some attention by
the department Of commerce and labor
through Its bureau of statistics. The
bureau recently received and published
reports Of American consula in the
orient which announced tho arrival Of
the first cargo of lumber In the Chinese
market by Russian vessel from VIM
diyostok. This fact opens tho question
of future competition for the oriental
market between the American lumber
interests on tho Pacific const on the
one hand and. that Of the Russians in
Siberia and on the Yalu river on the
other. In both cascs&. enormous re-
sources are awaiting development. Tho
American industry Of the Pnclnc coast
has the advantage Of organization Oh n
large scale and OF mechanical equip
'nlent unequaled by that of:any other
field in tho world. This Is evidenced
by the rate Of annual production. I'm
official estimates put the annual cut Of
lumber and shingles Of the three Pa
clfc states at 4.0OO,OOO.OO0 feet, Of
which California supplies 100000, ,OOn
feet, Oregon 74O.OOO,c coo feet and Wash
ington 2,3O0,OOO,O0O feet.
From present indications the United
States has nothing to fear from her
rivals in the lumber trade Of the Pa
cilc. Ultimately the Philippine Is-
lands will no doubt contribute mate-
rlally to the supply. The trade from
tho Pacific coast Of the United States
is now in strong position.
During the fiscal year 1902 the Unit.
ed States exported 1 ,4O2, ,409, 900 feet Of
lumber and sawed timber, Of which
PRIESTHOOD feet were sent from the
Pacific coast. The exports Of wood
and manufactures thereof advanced
from $26,OO0,00O IN 1893 to $57 900
in 1908. Lumber, the largest item, in
creased In value from $9.OOO,OOO, in
1893 to sci 10000 in 1908.
