The work of the forestry bureau takes
wide range. There is a division of
forest measurements which devOtes it,
self to forest computation, maps and
silvios general forest data. The di-
vision of forest management has TO do
with the administration of public and
private lands and studies Of CONNER
icial trees. The division of dendrology
occupies itself with forest studies in all
parts Of the country, and with subjects
like turpentine orcharding and the oul-
tivation of basket willows and sugar
NAPLES. The division of forest extern
sion looks after cooperative plans and
planting. reserve planting, seed collect
ing, replacement and protection. The
division of forest products attends to
matters like the testing and preserva-
ton of timber. All of these subjects
have great economic Importance. One
instance may be cited in illustration:
The new method of extracting turpen-
tine. developed by the bureau. has in
creased the value of naval stores pro-
duced by 100000 a year. and the cost
ofsthe work was but $4,000.

WORTH CAROLINA DOGS PLEASED

| NORTH CAROLINA noes Pr EASED'
The dogs in North Carolina are feel
ing good over decision in their favor
which has just been made by the Su-
preme court of the State. A car be-
longing to the Charlotte Electric Rail-
way Company ran over Mr.. Moore's
dog. He brought an action for DAM
ages, and the company fought it all the
way up to the States Supreme court.
That tribunal held that dogs, while not
cattle or live stock within the mean
ing of the statute, are species of
property, and that for injuries to them
the injurers are responsible in the
courts. With regard to the dog which
strays upon a railroad track, the court
cited an opinion in the federal reports.
'The dog is very sagacious and watch
full against hazards" said the Judge
quoted, land possesses greater ability
to avert injury than almost any other
animal; in other words, takes better
care of himself against impending dan
gers than any other. He can mount an
embankment or escape from dangerous
places where a horse or COW would be
altogether helpless; hence the same
care to avoid injuries to an intelligent
dog on railroad is not required of
those operating the trains that is re-
quired in regard to other animals. The
presumption is that such dog has the
instinct ami ability to get out of the
way of danger" Accepting all this as
correct, the Supreme court went on to
say that a state of facts which would
make the railroad company responsible
in damages for the killing or injuring
of man on its tracks would also make
it responsible for the killing of dog.

ENGLaAD,S CA,N1fS.

Canals are not yet played out even
in this rapid country, and in England
public attention is beginning. to be di-
reeted toward the Improvement of the
canal system. In an important paper
read the other evening at the Royal
United Service Institution in London a
prominent engineer advocated the ma
tionalization and electrification of the
canals. He said that if the $500 miles
of the system could be bought at two
thirds of the original cost of construc-
ton, say e2,s5o per mile of length,
then the capital required would be
sS,225, 900. Calculating at $500 per mile
for the cost Of standardizing the locks,
and $4,000 per mile for the eleetrifica-
ton of the canals, then the total
amount required would be 6,975, 900.
Allowing e3,0000OO for working capital,
he thought that a round sum of twenty
millions would secure for the State a
splendid transport property. He then
proceeded to, argue that inasmuch as
more than sixty millions sterling had
been expended in tranway systems in
the country, and that over three hun
dred millions sterling had been absorb
ed in municipal work, the government
might surely be permitted to become
the owners of an efficient, electrified,
navigable, inland water service. The
electrification, of the canal system
would provide a cheap supply of cleo
trio power for transport service, as well
as for pumping, irrigation, ploughing,
.churning, milling, and vegetable and
flower growth, while the revival of the
inland navigable waterway system
would go far towards securing a new
era of agricultural prosperity. Some
of the feeder canals, he suggested,
might be converted profitably into mo-
tor or car ways. Only State ownership,
he maintained, could restore the canals
to general usefulness.
Perhaps the canals in this country
could be made much more useful than
they are. Many in New York think the
Erie canal could be-

AIR LOCOMOTIVES.


Three things are necessary before
the air. independently of the earth
can ever be navigated practically and
successfully.
The first is strength and stability Of
architecture. The very strongest
material in the world must be en-
ployed, and it must be arranged in
the very best method to secure protee-
ton to everything within or upon it 1t
shOld be able to Withstand the sever
est storms, and to float safely amid
the toughest waves. To some extent

initiated, but not entirely; since the
air-ship is made for another purpose
than to carry the vital organs of the
feathered race.
should think that it ought to be
shaped somewhat like a boat-that,
at all events. its PROV should be
pointed. But in whatever form it is
built, it should be strong enough TO
Withstand any consllssion, and shaped
50 that it will float in water, it neces-
sary. .
Second the gas-chambers, which
should be above or beneath the ship,
or both, should be so thoroughly sep
arated that the failure or bursting Of
one will not affect another. They
should be numerous and well filled
enough. so that they will hold UP the
ship for an indefinate time, If neees-
sary. There should be machinery on
board to generate gas in sufficient
quantities to supply accidental or
needful waste.
Third, concerning the wheels of the
ship; these are of ultra Importance,
and should be many and powerful.
The vessel we are guiding should be
used, so far as propulsion is conceren-
ed, the same as a submarine boat-and
the air employed as a force of resis-
lance against which to work, the same
as If 1t were water-whieh, although
not so dense, is capable of furnishing
enough resistance, if sufficient power
is used.
And this is where the entire useful
ness or uselessness of the winged To-
connective is at stake. This is the main
question. Can you furnish enough
power to resist and utilize the air in
any phase or form that it presents?
Can you overcome gales and i. make
Roadway against them, the same as a
powerful steamer would climb against
the current of a river? Can you, by
means of lateral whirling wheels, COM
bat successfully against the wind
blowing sidewise against you?
Yes; but it must be done with the

Forestry in this country is decidedly
looking up. All the national forestry
interests are now in charge of the bu-
reau of forestry. This makes a large
addition to the responsibilities of the
bureau. The forest reserve service
now numbers about $50 officials of va
rious grades-superinten super
visors, rangers. These were recently
brought into the classified civil service.
The forest reserves comprise about
100000 acres of the public domain.
The new duties more than double the
force of the bureau. 1t is said that in
the management of the reserves the
policy will be to decide all questions
with view to meeting the needs and
demands of the people of each particu-
lar locality. 1t is proposed to recognize
the dominent industry of each district
agricultural, mining, numbering, grazing
and grant such privileges as may be
consistent with proper administration
of the reserves. injuring minor INDUS
