CENSUS OF STANDING TIMBER.


Washington, d. C.-The National
Conservation Commission has 6hused
the first comprehensive attempt at a
census of the standing timber in the
United States ever undertaken. The
commission needs the information to
help complete its inventory of the
country's natural resources. which 1t
will include in its report to the Pres
ident, and since that report is to be
submitted on January l next it needs
the information at once. In conse-
quence. the work on the census has
been started with rush.
Estimates as to the amount of
standing timber in the United States
range all the way from S22, ,6S2 ,000,-
900 to 1000, 100000 1000 board feet
a difference of more than a trillion
feet in the views of the best qualified
authorities in the country.
In the opinion of the forest service
the most carefully prepared estimates
yet made are those by Henry Gan
nett, published by the twelfth census
in 1900, which placed the total
stumpage at 1890 700. 100000 board
feet Mr.. Gannett was recently cho-
sen by the President to compile all
the information gathered for the
commission. The census is expected

Decay OF Building Stones

The causes of decay in building
stones are various, and depend On
the physical structure of the stone
It's composition. and the nature OF
the surrounding atmosphere. The
most destructive agent to which the
stone is exposed is rain or a moist
atmosphere. and also. in a minor
degree, wind. frost, and smoke. The
air of large towns is usually charged
with various deleterious acids; these
acids are dissolved by the rain, which
penetrates the stone in a greater OF
less degree. according to its physical
structure, and combines with the con.
stituents of the stone. causing it tc
decay, so that any contrivance that
will check the admission of water
will be most likely to succeed in ar
resting decay. Building World.

PUBLICITY SAVES LIVES ON RAILROADS
Officials Frequent Discipline

Chicago.-Publicity is credited
with having decreased accidents on
the Hartman system of roads be-
tween twenty and fifty per cent with
in the past three years. This result
is indicated by a report made by
julius Kruttschnitt, director of main
tenance and operation, to e. H. Har-
riman, of a novel plan which has been
tried on that system of roads.
Besides decreasing accidents, pub
1icity has served, it is said, to i'm
prove discipline and increase efficiency
and also has protected the roads
against newspaper misrepresentation
and unfair hostility on the part of
communities. When the plan of CIV
ing the fullest publicity to wrecks
was first broached by Mr.. Krutt-
schnitt, 1t was coldly received on all
sides. Finally he succeeded in get
ting it tried on the Union Pacific, and
now all the Hartman lines follow it.
The new method depends for its
success largely upon speedily finding
out the cause of the accident, placing
the blame where 1t belongs and let
ting the public know all the news
papers care to tell about it. This
method is so different from the one
usually employed by railroads that it
caused a great deal of comment, but
Mr.. Kruttschnitt is firm believer in
the efficacy of public sentiment when
based upon right understanding of
facts.
When an accident occurs on any of
the Hartman roads the superin-
tendent, master mechanic and engi-
neer of the division so at once to the
scene and organize board of inquiry,
composed of themselves and one or
more leading citizens of the commun-
ity. If this board fails to ascertain
the cause of the accident, second
board is formed of the general super
intendent, general superintendent of
motive power, engineer of main
tenance of way and one or more citi-
zens of the community. Should this
board in turn fail, third board is
formed with the general manager at
its head. In only one instance has

to give an accurate basis for comput-
ing how long our timber supply will
last.
The consensus of opinion is that
the present annual consumption of
wood is about 100000, 100000 board
feet, or something more than that
One leading authority has placed 1t
as high as $50, 100000 board
feet. Assuming stumpage of
1.40O. .00O, 100000 feet, an annual
use of 100, 1000, 100000 feet and neg
lecting growth in the calculation the
exhaustion of our timber supply is
indicated in fourteen years, and as
suming the same use and stand, with
an annual growth of 10000, 1000, 900
feet, supply for twenty-three years
is indicated. Letters to county clerks
asking for statements of forest areas
in their counties have been forward
ed Seven thousand lumbermen and
timber land owners have been asked
to supply similar information. In
all. nearly 10000 letters have been
sent. These letters also ask for a
wide variety of information, includ.
ing not only the lumb~-iug and mill
ing industries, but al others, even
indirectly dependent upon the use OF

The board of inquiry does its work
quickly and not infrequently a news
paper representative is a member.
The newspapers are furnished with
a correct bulletin of the facts. This
practice has greatly diminished the
newspaper appetite for wreck data,

The effect upon the discipline has
