CHESTNUT TIMBER IN DEMAND

Chestnut timDer is in great de-
mana. The wood is light, moderate
ly strong, coarse grained and elastic.
1t works easily and is very durable
in contact with the soil. In season
ing, the wood often checks and warps
but damage from this source is not
serious. 1T is used in cabinet WORK
and coope age, and for fence posts,
telegraph and telephone poles, ties
and mine timber. The presence CT
tannin in the wood increases the de-
mand for small-sized and inferior
material. and large quantities are used
in the manufacture of tanning ex-
tracts. Except in portions OF the
southern AppaIacnians, very little OF
the original chestnut remains, but
the coppice reproduction is so rapid
that a considerable supply of small
sized timer is still available. The
excellent qualities of the wood insure
permanent demand and good price
In one of its recent reports the
forest service says: Chestnut plan
seeding or by the use of nursery
grown seedlings Seed may be
bought or conected from trees in the
vicinity. To prevent crying out and
consequently loss of terminating
power, collected seeds should be kept
stratltied in moist sand until the fol-
lowing spring. Homegrown seedlings
are usually superior to those bought
from commercial dealers, and are
much cheaper. The nursery should be
located on fresh, well-drained, fertile
soil, under conditions such as are
usually present in an old garden spot
thorough cultivation of the soil is
required, but the preparation OF seed
beds is unnecessary. Seed should be
planted, 10 to II a linear foot, III
nursery rows Is inches apart. Care
should be taken not to cover the
seed more :, an one inch deep. A
pushel contains $500 to 5000 nuts,
sufficient to plant $50 linear feet or
nursery rows and to produce at least
4 900 plants. These rows will cover
and area of 975 square feet While in
the nursery, seedlings require careful
cultivation and should be kept en-
tirely free from weeds.
When painting on permanent sites
lie trees should be set five or s1A
feet apart each way, the width de-
pending upon the quality of the site
and the possible market for the pro-
duct of Trimmings. In good situations
the wider spacing is advised. If the
trees are to be grown directly from
seed without transplanting seed spots
should be prepared, spaced as above.
Two or three seeds should be planted
in each and covered about one incn
deep with fine earth. Only one tree
should be allowed to remain in eaSh

UNIVERSITIES AS
PEACE MAKERS

New York, April 17.-That intel
ngence, knowledge, and culture are
things which universities can con-
tribute to the cause of universal
peace, was the consensus Of opinion
of the college presidents who spoke
last night at Carnegie hall at the
university meeting of the peace con-
gress. A. half dozen college pres1'
dents, including representatives of
universities of Oxford ana Cam
bridge, spoke in the interest of the
movement, and showed the collegc
men what they could and should do
to advance the cause of universaT
peace and the emancipation of Christ
iandom from the curse of war.
While the Carnegie hall meeting
was in progress, another largely at
tended peace meeting was being held
in Cooper union This gathering was
representative of organized labor.

snecial CORRESPONDENCE.


Washington. April u. Washington
boasts of one of the best universities
in the United States. 1t is the George
town college with its supplemented
professional branches. Throughout
the east and extending through the
central west to the Pacific coast, the
blue and the gray waves an unchaI-
lenged reputation; one second to none
on the list of this country's great In
situations of learning. In the east it
ranks on par with Harvard, Yale
and Princeton, and by those colleges
liz is considered their equal. It's
courses of study are stringent and its
professors and instructors are inte'-
lectually of the highest type, their Sc
lection as members of the faculty be-
ing not only dependent upon their
teaching qualifications but also upon a
conservative, yet progressive broad
lmindedness, the influence of which
rounldy arms the student in obtaining
an all-around, social, physical, mental
moral development. The mind, the
body and the soul are sought to be
strengthened in the four years course,
and in no university are the results Of
the efforts more gratifying. The a.
Imospbere Of Uhe charming surround
| ings,-that beauty Of nature which
never fails to inspire,-is in itself a
factor most important in the forma-
ton of strong, noble character.
The university is located in the out
skirts of Washington in or near what
was once the little city of Georgetown
but which since the growth of the CAPT
tai city has become a residence sec
ton. The colleges, therefore, may be
said to be nearly out in the country
There are few if any more beautiful
college locations in the country. Still
ated on an elevated piece of ground, it
Ioverlooks one of the most romantic
stretches of the Potomac river. The
shores of the latter for nearly a mile
back form a most charming picture of
hills, ravines and woods. which in
their natural beauty rival those i'm
Imortalized haunts along our own glo-
lrious Mendoza. The college consists
of one immense building, and that is
la piece of art The arrangement of
the principal part with it's wings forms
a well-proportioned quadrangle. Being
of the old Gothic style, its corners.
peaks and belfrys are numerous. It's
several large clocks strike the hour
about half a second apart, and it is
delightful to hear the melodious chimes.
The entire outward appearance, be-
speaks something peculiarly human,
and an inspiration fills the soul whom

subject of much comment and interest

that carnations were required to COM

artistic beauty of the same, that fact
has never been doubted Among
these decorations are many signs and
emblems of the holy orders incident to
the Jesuit faith.

The professional schools are the col

CHAPTER VII.

About week after the arrival of
his relations the forester promulgat-
ed a new house law, which he said
was most kindly received by his min
lister, and by virtue of which the
Ferber family was required to dine
every Sunday at the lodge These
were happy days for Elizabeth The
walk to church usually began long be-
tore the church bells rang Clad in
her tiuttering white dress, her soul
elated with that sweet presentiment
of youth, as though bright day ever
could bring anything but happiness
Elizabeth walked in advance of her
parents, awaiting in pleasant eXpec-
ttiOn the moment at which the gold
ball upon Lindhof church-steeple
would CLEAN among the trees in the
valley far below. Then the church
goers, emerging from the silent
paths that opened from right and left
into their own began to join them
with greeting and handshaking until
they emerged in front of the church,
where the forester was usually wait
ing. BY this time the church bells
were ringing. The forester greeted
the family with joyful hat-waying and
sparkling eyes. In every movement of
his tail frame, in his whole carriage,
there was revealed that unbending
truthfulness which does not shrink
before the greatest; that expression
of manly strength and manly will
which leads US to expect great deter
mination, bold deeds, but never the
delicate emotions of a rich, deep soul.
Elizabeth thought it indescribably
touching when the firm, direct glance
of her uncle melted upder the in
tiuence of some tender feeling. And
she had frequent opportunity to OBJ.
serve the metamorphosis, for she had
become the apple of his eye. He had
never had children, and now bestow-
ed upon his brothers child all the
fatherly tenderness of which his rich,
full heart was capable, feeling pride
that this Fchild was in many respects
Intellectually kin to him, however
much the qualities of his own char
acter were penned in her by the
transmitting power of true wcmanli-
ness.
Elizabeth rewarded his love with
childlike devotion and tender care.

to ois domstic comfort, and lent a

ger of squirrels it will prove satisfae-
tory and less expensive than the use
of seedlings. In general, however,
the seeding plantation will be safer
and will give better results The
system of management best suited to
the chestnut is the pure coppice, with
a rotation of from % to 35 years.
Coppice makes more rapid growth
than seeding forest, and produces
timber in many respects superior.
The species also grows we'll in mix

waiting for something, and when Eliz-

rapidly toward her as though he
wished to speak to he1.
At that moment Frau and Fraulein
Won Lehr appeared upon the upper
landing of the staircase. "Ah! Herr
Won Hollfeld," sailed the old lady,

The young mans features, which

excited and eager, instantly assumed
and expression of calm Indifference.

bow to the two ladies, he strobe away

morrow will be Sunday" said Eliza
beth an hour later, sitting upon the
edge of her mothers bed and making
her report upon the events of the day.
Then l can wash, in our dear,
