INVESTIGATING TIMBER LANDS
Members of a Government Commission
At Work in Illinois.

At Work in Illinois.
The government is making an effort
to ascertain the extent of the groves
in the United States and the adaptable
ty of the different kinds of trees to the
various soils: the rapidity of growth,
and the value of the wood for various
purposes. Illinois is just now receiv-
ing the attention of this commission.
F. J. Phillips and NJ. B. Pratt, two
members of the commission of six men
lat work in the state, are travelling
through this part of Illinois.
The reports of these gentlemen will
show the number of groves they find
of an area of five acres each or more;
the kind of trees planted when plant
ed. etc. Measurements are taken of
the average sized trees in the groves
at heights of two, four and seven feet
from the ground. From these meas
urCments an estimate is to be made of
the number of railroad ties. fence posts
and other saleable timbers that may
be gotten from the groves.
This is the first personal inspection
that has been made in the state of
Illinois that such a report could be
made up from.

MERCER COUNTY IN SUITS
AGAINST RAILWAY LINES
Personal TAX-PENALTIES AGGREGA


Four suits were begun in the circuit
court at Aledo this week that are of
peculiar interest. They were begun
by States Attorney Graham. The de-
PENDANTS are the c., B. & Q. Railroad
company and the st. Louis, Rock ISL
and < Chicago Railroad company, op-
Grating lines in Mercer county. The
suits are for damages in the sum of
$4,000 each. or $4,000 in all.
The law upon which the suits are
based is one which requires all rail-
road companies to file with the county
clerks of the counties wherein they
operate during the month of May each
year a schedule of all right of way and
other real properties owned by such
railroad companies within the various
counties.
It has of late been the habit of the
railroad companies TO file these SEIZED
ules during the month of July, after
the various assessors have finished
their work, and not within the period
prescribed by the statute for the filing.
