CHANGES IN FOoTGEAR.
"squeaking" Shoes FORMERLY Demand
ed by Customers.

Most persons Of the present day. abhor
sQueaking boots or shoes. Indeed. many
regard such footgear a nuisance and
particularly disagreeable. even on the
street. and the wearer OF musical soles as
one to be pitied. There are some old-tim-
ers, however, who can recall instances
when customers required the squeaking ac-
compartment to their footgear. and refused
to purchase boots or shoes which would
make no noise. "A very old shoemaker
states that in his young days he was often
required to put a squeak in the soles of
shoes ordered. and that II was one Of the
requirements OF q jourHeyman shoemaker
to be able to put in good squeak"
This was done. said he "by placing be-
tween the soles pieces of quill in such a
way that they would rub together. sup
pose that those who wanted the squeak
desired to draw attention to themselves,
and have heard of some instances when
1t was acknowledged. In one case a young
countryman having been measured for a
pair of shoes, and having agreed to the
price. left the shop. but returned and re-
Quested the shoemaker to please. put a
quarters worth of squeakem in them air
shoes, case 1 wants to war''em to church
Sunday. and when walks up the aisle the
girls will all look around to see who 1t Is
1t Is needless to say that his order was fol-
lowed.
Il believe. however, that many who did
not know Of the quill trick had a suspicion
that In some makes OF ready made shoes
paper was used In the soles,+ and that the
leather. l suppose that but few desire the
musical soles now, for 1t has been a gen.

gear asked for 7'se vFa 50

Corn in Cold Climates.

There is positively no limit to the alti-
tude in which corn will grow" said an
employee of the Agricultural Department
by and by. II we keep on. we will be able
to raise corn in the neighborhood of the
north pole. 1t is principally a matter Of
getting varieties that will become accli-
mated, II remember that well up in north
ern Michigan we used to raise pretty good
corn. OF course. the stalks were not tall,
only being about two feet in height, and
enc had to reach down to pull the ears OF.
In Virginia and even In Illinois one has to
reach I'D instead Of down In order to get
at the ears. However, In spite Of the fact
that the stalks grow short and stunted an
excellent quality OF corn can be produced
In the northern climates. ,.a.ts.. - 4,

CALIFORNIA; Biggest Nugget.

The largest nugget OF gold ever found in

struck with its unusual weight, which upon
examination showed q yellow streak He
took it to a sluice. where upon washing 1t
on he found 1t was q lump of almost pure

CONSERVATIVE NUMBERING.
What Good Management Has Done for
the University Of the South.

What Good Management Has Done for
the University Of the South.
The Department of Agriculture has pub
lished as bulletin 80 Of the bureau OF for
estry treatise on conservative numbering
at Sewanee, Tenn. by Mr.. John Foley. field
assistant to the forester in charge Of the
bureau Of forestry. This book Is illustrated
by twelve full-page cuts.
The bureau Of forestry in 1900 undertook
the management of the forest at Sewanee.
Tenn. owned by the University Of the
South. The forest has been misused for
many years. and was steadily declining in
value. but the financial condition Of the
university prevented any expenditure on
its improvement. and demanded that 1t be
made to yield immediate returns. In spite
Of these disadvantages, plan OF manage
ment was devised and applied which has
been profitable, and has left the forest in
good condition after numbering.
Two types of forest grow at Sewanee-
one confined to the plateau. the other to
the coves Although 5000 for all of the
timber was considered a fair offer by fhe
university In 1899. yet under the plan Of
management of the bureau of forestry the
university made In 190O-19O1 a net profit
out of its cove timber alone OF about 81 $40,
and the following year of about 81, 200. The
forest on the plateau had been burned and
grazed 50 long that its improvement in
quality and composition was the urgent
problem. A plan of treatment was made
whereby the labor expended on the i'm
provement of the plateau forest would be
paid for by the returns 1t would yield.
Although the work Of improvement done on
the plateau was required to be self-sup-
porting only, It yielded net profit of about
$500.
Four years more Of numbering remain to
be DONE and for three years at least there
Is an assured annual profit OF 81 500, or half
Of what the university was formerly willing
to accept for all Of the timber In word,
timber formerly valued at 5000 will have
been made to yield a profit OF about $1,000.

After a trial in the Probate Court. which
lasted several weeks. Justice Barnard sus-
tanned a motion on behalf Of the caveatees

to controvert the will. The caveator ap-
pealed to the Court Of Appeals.
Attorneys R. Ross Perry, D. W. Baker
and Wilton J. Lambert represent the ca
veatOr, while Attorneys A. 8. Worthington
