cent laws passed by the Vermont
legislature regarding forestry, reg
ulations of commissioner as to tree
planting and suggestions as to forest
fires. The regulations in part are as
follows:

DESTROYS of receiving the benefit of
the law shall file with the commits
sioner, at least thirty days before the
time Of planting, declaration OF his
intention to plant timber trees, set
ting forth the kind, number, Ioca-
ton, etc. The commissioner will
then forward to him suggestions on
the same. Trees must not be plant
ed more than eight feet each way
and the minimum number of living
planted trees per acre, which shall
entitle a land owner to the exemp.
ton provided tor by law, shall be
600 when counted during the month
of October following the planting,
etc. The plantation must be main
tanned in thrifty condition during
the ten years period for which ex-
emption is claimed and at the end
Of five years after the first count,
shall contain in the aggregate at
least 500 trees per acre. If the
planting is done by seed there should
be at least 1000 healthy seedlings

TroutIess Trout Streams

Vermont has too many fished-out,
troutless streams for a state that
makes a bid for summer sportsmen
and advertises all the rural advan-
tages that mountainous state should
have. Vermont was a famous fish
ing ground for years and perhaps
for this reason the average angler
dislikes to run, at every bend in the
road, against the stern prohibitory
signs that warn him to keep of the
grass-he never is quite sure what
is going to happen next-but pro
tective measures are necessary il the
waning supply Of trout is to be re-
plenished. The number of trout
has increased in many sections in
the past few years chiefly through
individual efforts in stocking and
protecting streams, but in numerous
instances, it is reported, yonng fish
have been poorly protected, and those
that did not die Immediately were
destroyed by hook and line before
they were half grown. AS a Brattle-
boro correspondent says:
There is too little attention given
to the proper planting of fish in YER
mont, and to their protection in the
streams to insure the best results.
Vermont is far behind New Hamp-
shire and Maine in this respect, and
this lack of attention to details ac-
counts, in a very large measure, for
the lack of an abundance of trout in
Vermont streams, though there are
many more fish and much better fish
ing here now than before the whole
sale stocking began. 1t has always
been very difficult to persuade a YER
mont legislature to oblige mill own
ers to burn their sawdust rather than
deposit it in the trout streams to the
detriment and sure death of the fish.
This, then, is the greatest menace to
the proper stocking of streams.

Bethel Loses Granite Contract.

At meeting of the commission
ers of the District of Columbia, held
March %, it was decided to accept
the bid of the South Dover, N. Y,
Marble Co. for stone to be used in
the construction Of the new munich
pal building in Washington. The
principal bids before the commits
sion were the South Dover Marble
Co., for stone $645,ooo, and set
ting $4,000; and the Woodbury.
Granite'Co., which offered to fur
nish Bethel granite for $500, 900.
This did not include the setting.
There seems to have been two
factors that worked against the
Bethel granite, the first being the
additional cost and the second the
idea that il was feared that the lay
ers of the Bethel granite were not
of sufficient thickness.

Mai. Gens Ainsworth a Power in
the War Department.

"One OF the high and mighty Off
cials in the war department is Maj.
Gen. F. Z. Ainsworth, military Sec
retary," says the Washington cor
respondent Of tie Boston Herald,
ellis position came into existence
under the general staff act and is Of
the same prominence and impor-
lance in a military sense as the for
mer office of adjutant general which
has been abolished"
General Ainsworth avoids the
prominence which Gen. Corbin
sought. One rarely hears of him,
even in Washington, although he
enjoys the same sway of authority
in military affairs as did the most
powerful of adjutant generals. He
has rare talents as an administrative
officer. He fought his way to the
front through the record division OF
the department. The records Of
veterans were formerly IN the files
of the pension office. In those days
it required weeks and even months
for senators and representa-
tives to secure the records of sc
vices of soldiers who had applied
for pensions or increases. Wher
Gen. Ainsworth took charge he re-
duced the vast detail to a card sys-
tenn. From that time on all inquir.
les were answered the same day they
were received.
1t did not take long for this valu
able service to make a strong con
gressional impression. Gen. Aims
worth quickly became one of the
few indispensable men in the gov
eminent service.

WHY Pastry mcrawls y

Pastry "crawls" from the edge of
the plate because all dough shrinks
in cooking. Pastry used for making
pies should be spread loosely over
the plates. This should be noted in
connection with both the upper and
under crust. BY attention to this
point much of the loss of juice in
