As TO That Big Lumber Cut.

Two weeks ago the REPUBLICAN pub
lished an article on the "Greatest Lumber
Cut" which gave some rather startling
figures of that vast industry in the United
States. The article was sent out by the
"Forest Service" of the U. S. Dept. of
Agriculture and was correct in all but
one feature, to which one of our subscrib-
ers called our attention. The error was
manifest at a glance and we took the
trouble to refer the matter back to the
Chief of the Forest Service at Washington
who makes the proper correction in the
following letter. In the article referred
to the total cut for year was given as
81, $50, ,736 board feet. To these figures
should have been added three ciphers,
making it 81 $50, 1886. .OOO-billions instead
of Millions. The letter follows:
U. s. DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE, FOREST
SERVICE, WASHINGTON, Feb. II, 'OS. J
ED. FOREST REL UBLICAN,
Tionesta, Pa.
Dear Sir Your letter of February is
received. / am sorry to say that the total
lumber cut as given in Press Review 20
should have been 81, $50 1856, 900 board
feet. The error was due to the fact that
1t is customary when speaking of lumber
in billions of feet to write the digits for
millions and to put the word thousand
after them. In this case the word thous-
and was, by mistake, omitted. / should
thank you heartily for publishing this
correction. Very truly yours,

Letter to Z. w. Bowman,
TioneStd, Pa.

DEAR SIR:-Paint goes by gallons
There are useful and useless gallons
Useful paint is lesd-zinc-and-oil with
dryer and color; useless paint is whiting,
chins-clay, ground stone, barytes, ben
zine, or water.
This stuff is putin, because it is cheap,
to stuff-out the paint, to make moie gal
Ions to sell, of course, the buyer doesn't
suspect, or he wouldn't buy it.
1t costs as much to blush-on this use
less stuff as lead zinc -snd-oil; but it looks
like that and feels like that in the brush;
the painter doesn't suspect it. Besides,
if the owner is willing, why should the
painter object to painting two gallons for
one? He is paid by the day; more gal
Ions, more days, more money.
Average paint at full price is about
one third this useless stuff; and average
paint at $l.25 or $1.50 or Sl.75 a gallon is
two-thirds trash. Fool paint is the
proper name for all but pure paint; it is
made to fool people with. Knave paint is
another good name; it is made, of course,
by knaves. Sick paint is name for an
honest weak paint. They are all weak
and all extravaganza: too many gallons to
buy and too many gallons to brush-on.
Devoe is the standard.
Yours truly,
+. w. DEvoE d Co.
p. S.-Dunn d Fulton sell our paint.

Friday about $3.50 the heavy body of ice
in the Allegheny river began to move.
Considerable uneasiness was felt for some
time for the residents of the lower lands
near the river, but the ice moved out
without causing any damage in this Sec
tion. The river by midnight of Saturday
reached the highest stage here in many
years, River street from the foot of Hi
lands street to a spot some distance above
the Garfield house being submerged to
the depth of eighteen inches to two feet.

also went out but the main wires of the
bridge seem to be in good condition
No great amount of damage is reported
from the lower end Of the river except at
Pittsburg, where the flood reached 81
foot stage, and caused the usual amount
of damage to mill property and basement
storehouses. The only damage reported
along Tionesta creek was to the S. IL T..

places by ice on Saturday but there were
no washouts, and trains we're running
