A Toast to Gentlemen.

This following toast to gentlemen
is handed in by a lady contributor:
Bless EN-! They halve our joys, they
double our sorrows, they treble our
expenses they Quadruple our cares they
excite our magninimity, they increase
our self respect weaken our enthusiasm
arouse our affections, control our pro
erty, and outmaneuver us in every
thing. This world is a dreary world
without them. In fact. | may say
without contradiction, that without
them this wouldn't be much of worl
anyhow. We love them, and the dear
things can't help it; we control them,
and the precious fellows don't know
IL. AS husband they are convenient
though not always on hand; as beaux
they ars by no means matches. -
They are most agreeable as visitors,
handy at state fairs, and indispensa-
BILE at oyster saloons. They are splen-
did as escorts for some other fell
lows wife or sister, and as friends,
they are better than women. AS our
fathers they are inexpressibly grand
A man may be failure in business,
wreck inconstitution, not enough to
boast Of as beauty, nothing as a wit,
less than nothing as legislator for
women's rights and not very brilliant
as a member Of the press, but If our
father, we overlook his shortcomings
and cover his peccadilloes with the
divine mantle of charity. Then as
our husbands, how we love to parade
them as paragons! In the sublime Ia
guage of the poet:
Wei lie for 'em.
Well cry for 'em.
And II we could we'd fly for 'em.
We'd anything but die for 'em.

SEVERAL MILLIONS
we're PAID
For Barrels During The Parst
Year..
Ohio Led In Quantity Of Hoops
Manufactured, Closely Follow
ed by Indiana.

ton OF slaves. hoops and heading.

used forest products last year nav
Ing the enormous value of $780,
25s.
The average man would little sus-
pcct that the humble barrel plays
so important part in the expense
accounts of the American farmer
and manufacturer. yet figures COM
piled by the Census in cooperation
with the United States Forest Serv-
ice develop this interesting truth.
Moreover, statistics taken directly
from reports from $50 cooperage
mills in all parts of the United
States show an increase of $780,
6SS. or IL per cent, in the value Of
last years product over that of the
previous year.
In distinct contrast to tight coop
erags stock, which in the main re-
Quires oak timber for its raw mater
ial, slack cooperage stock, particu-
larry stages and heading utilized in
greater or less degree, most of the
commercially important trees In the
country. and for this reason its
manufacture was far more widely
distributed than is the case with that
OF tight coporeage stock. Twenty
one species Of wood contributed to
the total slack stave production last
year. Nearly two-thirds Of the out
put, however was manufactured
from the four species red gum, pine,
elm and beech in the order named.
The figure disclose an interesting
movement In the industry in the sub
stitution of less expensive woods for
those which for many years were
drawn upon most heavily for slack
stave material, but which, owing to
growing scarcity and advancing cost,
are rapidly being displaced. In 1906
elm slaves were manufactured in
larger quantities than those from any
other wood, and constituted nearly
one-fourth of the total production
for that year, with pine and red gum
occupying second and third places,
respectively. Later years gum jumped
to first place. pine to second, while
elm, with falling off of SO per cent
in production dropped to third place.
Beech, Maple, Spruce, Chestnut, and
Ash followed in the order named.
While slack stave heading produc-
ton was repotred last year from
practically all the states engaged in
the manufacture of lumber. a con-
siderable percentage of the stock in
fact, being turned out as a by-pro-
duct of lumber, the industry was to
an extent localized the five states OF
Pennsylvania Missouri, Michigan,
Arkansas, and Virginia in the order
named. contributing 56.S per cent of
the total production. The distribu-
ton of the industry of hoop manu-
facture is much more limited than
that of slaves and heading, and is
due primarily to the fact that this
commodity is made chiefly from elm
timber. Ohio led in the quantity Of
hoops manufactured, closely followed
BY Indiana, the output of these two
states forming 67.S per cent of the
total production.
