Thirty years ago, when he came into possession Of a tract of about TOO acres near Paducah, he sold quantity of the timber for wagon stock. At that time forestry in this country was virtually unknown. Dr. Caldwell. however, was sufficiently foresighted to allow no trees to be cut except those which he selected. He went about in the woods and picked out trees whose tops and general ap- pearance showed they had passed their period of greatest vigor, and trees which interfered with promising young growth. His forest has been culled a number of times in the past Ssirty years, but so wisely has the cuttInx 2 been done that today the land will ay- craze from 10000 to 15,000 board feet per acre. This was an experiment in forestry which has amply Justified it. self. and shows how a shrewd, far sighted man may, even without tech nical advice, secure good returns from his woodland without impaIring its productive value and while putting himself in position to profit by the steady rise which is taking place in timber values.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISION

 Chicago. March 25.-Rumors of the re- wal of the bull campaign in May wheat had a strengthening effect on wheat here today. At the close May wheat was up gain of %c; oats are off M M@Nc and provisions are almost unchanged.
 As a result of higher prices, at Liverpool the wheat market here had a firm tone at the opening. May was unchanged to Nc higher at $l.12h. July was up shade to
 Nc at e0hc. The excellent outlook for the new crop. however, induced som eseliIng in July, and in consequence that option de- clined to sokc The fact that one of tho recognized leaders of the Eastern specu- iators was in Chicago yesterday gave some emphasis to much gossip. In addition to the revived interest in the May option. ad- vices from Minneapolis claimed that there was a good demand from millers for all grades of cash wheat. The prospect for good weather was completely offset. the market becoming quite bullish. May was in good demand. but offerings were extreme ly light. From $1. 1S the price of that op- tion advanced to 1.14 without a single trade. At e1.14 commission houses sold
 moderately and the price reacted somewhat.
 A belief that July had been largely over | sold caused fair buying of that option later | in the day The market closed strong with
 May at s1.1s. Final quotations on July
 were at 90A @soKc. Clearances of wheat
 and flour were equal to 7l.7oo bushels. | Influenced by the strength of wheat the | corn market exhibited considerable firm | ness. Shorts were good buyers, but of, ferings were comparatively light. Higher | prices at Liverpool had some effect on the | market here. May opened unchanged to l a shade lower at 4sxc. sold between IS < | 64sAc and 49c and closed at the high est
