Seven Varieties Of Wood Are Repre-

{. The United States government is paw

Seven varieties of wood are being
used in the paving Of Nicollet avenue
below Washington. The purpose in us

rial In this climate, Back Of the expert
thru the department of agriculture, is
taking a deep interest in wood pave
ments and Is collecting data for the
use of municipalities and corporations
extensively interested in such matters.
G. L. Hill Of the forest service is
the government representative who is
cut into blocks and watched the process
of creosoting, noting with care the
quantity Of creosote absorbed by q
given quantity of blocks. Now he is
watching the work of laying the blocks,
and he will return from time to time
to see how the different kinds of wood
bear up under the strain Of traffic.
The woods used are Norway pine,
years; southern pine, which has been
used extensively turnout the country
for several years, and also hemlock,
tamarack, Washington fir, western larch
and birch, which, as far as is known
have never been used for paving ma
terial in this country. IT. .-@t
It had been decided to experiment
With Jack pine, which is plentiful in
Minnesota and Wisconsin and is Of
little commercial value, but the lumber
men could not supply this material.

blocks at an angle Of As degrees. as il
found on some Of the crossings, and tn
third method will be with the block

Officers commissions in the Saliva

Minneapolis boys, who have just com

school at Chicago. 40 The new officers
will arrive in Minneapolis Wednesday

The young officers are, Captain Perry
Ditmer and Lieutenant Arthur Lysons.
Both men were enlisted In the army
in Minneapolis and received their. pre-
liminary training at the hands Of the
local officers. They entered the train
ing school six months ago and their .ap-
pointment to positions Of command and
responsibility is due to their excellent
work while there. Lieutenant Lysons,
who is now 18 years of age. began sell
ing papers on the streets when he was
years old, and continued to earn his
living that way until a year ago when
he fell in with the army workers. Staff
