Il guide for fixing the proper height Of

hut still got above tho stump-swelling
peculiar TO some species.
Frequently. fellcd trees are measured,
noting the diameter hreasthigh, the
length or distance without branches, the
"clcar" and actual mcrchantable lengths.
and the total height Of tho tree. Where
this IS done in conjunction with the
stump ANALYSES. q table Of age and
height Is readily made from the table of
age and hreasthigh diameter already OK
planned.
In order to apply the tables described
the stand on average acres Of different
types Of land is determined by means of
sample plots, usually OF an acre each,
or which the diameter OF every tree Is
carefully measured and Tailed. The fu-
ture yield on average acres is then fig
ured out from the diameter growth tables
and tabulatcd by decades,
Cutting over an area often markedly
increases the growth Of the remain!ng
trees, so that a separate yield table is
frequently made for second growth after
NUMBERING This forms an excellent ba-
sis for an estimate OF the future stand
on logged areas.
Besides the more purely technical mat
ters Of the life history Of the tree; the
best methods OF management and re-
production; the distribution OF the spe-
cies; the soundness: the damage by fire,
wind, insects, and fungi; and the gem
oral form and development Of the species,
n study Of the methods OF numbering Is
undertaken, especially as regards waste
and damage to young growth.
Finally, market study Is made
throughout the range Of the species,
Figures are obtained by measurement

viously marked In the woods. From
these measurements the actual value OF

imagine, by picking the pods apart.
The most interesting part OF the pro-
cess is that which puts the peas in the
cans and soldiers the tops on. This is also
done by machine, which seems almost
to have brain and fingers. The cans are
paced on conveyors and when passing
beneath organ-like tubes, each is exactly
filed. AS they pass along on the same
conveyor, the tin caps are applied and
soldered without touch Of human hands,
and then the cans tumble Off the end into
the great caldrons in which they are
cooked.
The thing which makes the pea crop a
hard one for the farmers to harvest Is
the fact that there Is Just one particular
time. and often just one day. when they
must be cut and canned, regardless OF
Weather or convenience n they are not
delivered on that day they will probably
be refused. The farmer is often called
upon therefore to display his hardihood
by working all day in the drenching rain
and handling the saturated vines ut the
same time.

 Tt was about o'clock wAen the accident happened. Our train was just pulling in to the station when happened to look out of the window and just then saw Old Johnson step from one track to tne track on which | our train was to instant death. "The accident occurred so quickly | that it was impossible to give the old Indian warning and wfsa the tran | struck him he was hurled about 2' feet in the air and fell to the grounc ldead.
 Tt was the supposition of all those who saw the accident that Johnson came to his death by accident. Il stepping from one track to his doom the old Indian failed to hear the shr1l whistle of the engine or the rumblin' lof the engine.

Especial to Review.l

PHOENIX, Feb. 7.-There is q per sistent rumor around the capital city that shortly after the Twenty-Fourth Legislative Assembly has passed into history, Governor Kibbey will tender his resignation as chief executive and retire from public life to resume the practice of his law profession. It is stated that the Governor has had a sui ficiency of a fhirty-fiye hundred dollar job when he frequently has the oppor- tunity to accept attorneys fees aggre- gating several times this amount per annum. Since the closing of the joint statehood campaign in this territory the Ainsworth- Wuson-Bird wing of the Republican party have made represen- tations at Washington that kibbey is not entitled to recognition from the National administration at Washing 0n on account of his active opposition joint-statehood, and have endeayor l to show the man in the White ouse that Sitting Bull" Wilson. O ina county, should be recognized
 In the meantime another wing of le Republican party in Arizona ha. 5een busy arranging program o 7ction for the national administration The HeutenantS in this movement ar' George Mark and Ned Creighton o Phoenix, but it is presumed they art acting in the interests of those nigh CT up' in the Republican party.

 Just what Mauk said to Harry New and Harry New said to Mauk has not yet been told in full, but enough has been intimared to make Mauk believe that what he says in Arizona goes.
 Mauk and Creighton are telling things to only few of their Intimate friends, but as usual nearly every body in Phoenix knows what they are planning to do. In their joy they navv not been able to cover up all the tracks they have left.
 If the dreams of Mauk Snd Creigh- | ton come true, Governor Kibbey will get formal letter from President Roosevelt shortly after the 24th Iesis i iature has passed into history, which will be followed by his letter of res ! ignation to President Roosevelt l Sturgis will be called from the ranks of Arizona republican politicians and take the seat of Governor Kibbey Mauk being made his private secre. tary. and his ambition to hold the 1 strings realized.
