SCIENTISTS AND ASHES

There are various people in the state of Connecticut who have tried the cob bler's oxalic acid, salt and water formula and claim that it operates successfully. They have kept careful account of expenditures etc. and claim to have demonstrated beyond the shadow of 8 doubt that it will do everything that is claimed for it. Now what we do not understand is why, if this is true, the chemists and scientists did not discover this formula long ago. Relative to this matter the Hartford Post has the follow lowing to say: Scientific authorities are disposed to discredit the efficacy of the formula, and set forth in technical lan- guage, just why it is incapable of doing the work claimed for it and point out the risks that must accompany expert ments conducted by persons who know nothing of the chemical properties of the combined ingredients, nor their action under combustion.
 On the other hand reports are made public every day of various experiments made by ordinary stokers, bakers and others, showing the most satisfactory re- suits of experiments with the cobbler's $ formula.
 It may be case of fools rushing in where scientists fear to tread, but if re- ports are reliable, the things which scientists tell us cannot be safely or proftably done, are safely and profita- ply done by upscientifc experimenters.
 The professional theorists may be right in declaring that from an econo- mic and practical standpoint, the com pound of ashes, oxalic acid, etc., will not prove an innovation of profitable utility, nor solve the problem of cheaper fuel; yet the results actually achieved are sufficiently encouraging to warrant the expectation that it will develop into a process of practical value.

AR BoR DAY.

As the years pass there is very per- ceptible increase in the interest in Arbor, Day not only among the pupils of the schools throughout the land but the general public is beginning to realize that the lesson of the day is one of value not so much perhaps as regards the present as the future. The preservation of the forests will fall upon those who are now scholars and one of the purposes of Ar bor Day is to inspire an interest in the trees and to teach the value of the woods to mankind. Everywhere the axe of the woodman is ruthlessly slaughtering the trees, the wooded hill sides are being denuded and only in isolated instances is any effort being made to replace the timber.
 During the progress of the Arbor Day exercises in most of the schools, the care and cultivation of trees will be explained and an effort will be made by the teachers to show the rising generation the true value of them. In several school yards, trees will be set out, with accompanying outdoor exercises.
 Such appeals to reason and sentiment in the public schools, repeated year after year, must have the effect upon the atti- tude of the next generation toward for estry and tree planting. If nine child ren are indifferent to truths which un- derlie the exercises of the day, the tenth will not forget the lesson of Arbor day. He will remain through life tree-lover, a citizen who can be counted upon to do his best to promote the care of forests and the preservation of the timber wealth of the United States.
 There is need for such Americans. The population and the natural demand for lumber is steadily increasing. Every year brings nearer the time when the forests will be mere remnants of their former greatness, and timber will be too costly for many uses. There is special interest in Arbor day in that it will help to strengthen the support of the general public of the next generation, for the forest reservation bills which are to come. Creating a widespread interest in this movement can be brought about in no better way than by giving more and more attention to the movement, in- stilling into the minds of the young the necessity for the preservation, of not only the shade trees, but the forests, as well.
 Arbor day widens and strengthens it's hold upon the public schools, year after year. It cannot become too popular nor can its observance be too widespread.
