Timber on the Forest Reserves.

Information comes from Washington
that the mature timber on the Ma
tional forest reserves is to be oHeEe"
for sale. This announcement is III
line with the declared purpose or me
Department Of Agriculture TO deVeloP
the National forest reserves by use
The restriction formerly laid upon inc
export Of timber from the states III
which the forest reserves were TO-
Gated has been removed, and the law
now places no limitation on the snip
ment of timber grown on any toresL
reserve except those in the state OF
Idaho and the Black Hills Reserve IN
South Dakota. The effect OF this
change in the law, and the declared
policy Of the Department of Agrlcul'
ture, is that the timber on he re-
serves may now be cut and disposed
of to the highest bidder. On many OF
the reserves there are great quaint
ties o. mature timber, and OH some o.
them the facilities for getting it out
at Il reasonable cost are excellent.
The Forest Service, which has charge
VI lit tlullllllSll w VI ~ '~S'
is anxious to begin the cutting or THIS
mature timber as soon as possibfe'
and it is prepared to consider offers
from lumbermen who wish to under
take such operations.
1t is perhaps well to call attention
to the fact that this announcement
does not mean that the forest reserves
are going to be devastated under au
thority of the government. On the
contrary, the distinct and definite pur
| pose of the Forest Service is to i'm
prove the reserves by utilizing tint
material that is now fit for lumber
In doing so, it will also provide fol
the reproduction of the forest ant
the restocking Of those areas upoI
which forest conditions are defective

OPENING Up Apple Trees.

Mr.. s. G, Soverhill, a we'll known
fruit grower Of Illinois, has an orchard
that will pay any man to visit. Any
one looking over hat orchard will be
struck by the great thriftiness OF the
trees and the bright color seer On the
bark Of young trees. Mr. Sorerhil!
says that this is due to the fact that
he has Opened up" as he calls It.
the trees. That is, he has cut out
the inside top branches and left, as
it were, a narrow bowl in the top
from the trunk upwards. In Ordinary
trees the central stem is allowed to
grow straight up with a multitude OF
small branches growing from it.
These always interfere with the gath
ering of the fruit, and the fruit borne
III these inside branches Is generally
Of poor color and relatively small, as
the more fruit a tree bears the
smaller will the fruit be. Mr..
Soverhill has cut out these branches
and has let the sun in to color his
fruit. AS he has reduced the bearing
wood of the tree, the fruit that is
left grows to n larger size than it
would. This open place on the inside
Of the tree he finds Tery useful at
picking time. A man can get into
this place, hang his basket or picking
bag on one of the limbs, and do his
picking very rapidly. Also, when
spraying time comes the man wno
holds the nozzle that throws the spray
can get up into this place and thus
thoroughly spray every portion Of the
tree. This makes perfect work pos.
sible. We believe this process of
opening apple trees can be followed
to good advantage.-Farmers Review.
Age of Grape Vines.
We asked Mr.. Soverhin how long a
grape vine would grow and
bear fruit. He said: Il do
not know, but when I was q years
old my brother bought the Robinson
Farm, and | took up a grape vine
there and %re,planted Il. II has been
growing now, so far as ! know, for
~ years. During al this time it has
been bearing fruit"

To Prevent chapped Hands.

Many women who do their own work are
much ANNOYED in winter with chapped
hands. This may be avoided by using Ivory
Soap for dish washing and toilet purposes.
Dry the hands thoroughly each time after
they have been in water, and rub with a
little .atmgal-water or some good lotion.
