MERIT IN CHICORY.

U. s. Government Interested in the
Use Of the Root.
II long ago was discovered that the
addition Of a small proportion of
cnicory to coffee gave the combina-
ton the same taste and flavor "a are
found in the most expensive Arabian
mixtures selling up to several dollars
per pound. This fact has been rec
ognized for many years in Europe.
but only recently has this fact been
recognized by American consumers.
Now the Government is interested
and has conducted a searching in
curry into the merits and uses of chic
DRY. Recently In Bulletin 10 u. s.
Department of Agriculture, Page ~.
the Government says:
With the exception Of only one
case II was found that a small quan-
tity OF chicory added to good coffee
improved the flavor and reduced the
peculiar nervous effect of the coffee.
1t is supposed in the single exception
referred to an inferior grade of cof-
fee was sold for the high grade. In
all these trials the purity of the chic
ory was undoubted, it having been
sent by a prominent chicory firm for
analysis and experiment.
Analysis of both the raw and the
prepared product have so far failed
to reveal the presence of any positive
ly harmful substance. Neither the
National nor the U. s. dispensatories
condemn its use. 'Chicory,' says the
former. is thought to increase the
appetite, promote the digestion and
stimulate the liver
In France and Germany use is
made OF chicory as an aperient for in
fants and young children, mothers
preferring 1t to ordinary medicine on
account Of its being agreeable in ma
vor and harmless in effect. Since no
evil effects are apparent when a mix
ture of chicory and coffee Is used, and
since remarkable symptoms follow
the excessive use of straight coffee.
1t appears that the use of chicory in
moderation Is not fraught with great
er evil than the use of coffee. Either
beverage affects different tempera-
ments In different ways, and 1t should
be left to the individual himself to
choose chicory, coffee or q mixture
The very general use Of chicory for
the last one hundred and fifty years,
and the proportions which its cult
walton have assumed, indicates that
1t is beneficial and agreeable to at
least some constitutions"

level to 1900 feet elevation, and Is
noted for its variable form aT.i

wood is lighter in weight and color.
less resinous, and straighter grained
than on the Pacific Coast.
1t quickly succumbs TO fire on &C
count of its thin bark, but to Ger
tain extent guards against extipc-
tion by this cause by producing fer
tile cones at the early age of from
six TO ten years. Reseeding after a
fire is favored also by the persist
ence of the cones, some of which do
not shed their seeds for a number OF
years, and by the readiness with
which the seeds terminate on miner
al soil of burned-over land. A large
proportion of the seeds terminate;
they are usually borne annually and
in large quantities, and since they
are small and light, they are carried
by the wind as far as 200 yards from
the seed tree.
The yield runs as nigh as 10000
board feet an acre, though it does not
often run over 1000 board feet. The
tree is Of small size, seldom exceed
ing eighteen inches in diameter and
ninety feet in height, but it usually
forms dense stands. 1t is valuable for
poles, hewed ties, mine props, stulls,
logging poles, converter poles, and
box boards. The demand for lodge
pole pine for hewed ties is especial
ly strong for two reasons; the wood
hews easily, and since the common
size of the tree is from eleven to
fourteen inches in diameter breast
high, there is little hewing to be
done.
Experiments on large scale look.

paper pulp will be tried by the pur-
chasers of timber from one of the ma
tional forests. Three of the largest
timber sales of the Forest Service
are of lodgepole pine. One of 1G5 mil
lion board feet is in the Medicine

Wyoming line, and one of so million
board feet each in the Big Horn For

ten cents each.
Thirty-eight years ago, lodgepole
pine was cut for railroad ties in
southern Wyoming. Only the best
trees were taken, and the trees left
are now approaching merchantable
size. BY the settlers, the pine is
used for many purposes, especially
for house logs, fuel, and fencing Be
cause of its tendency to decay when
set in the ground, fences are built on
top of the ground and braced, thus
increasing the life of the post" from
three to fifteen years.-New York

AN INTERESTING
CHEMICAL EXPERIMENT
ANY Child Can Do it---The Result Is
Almost Like Ma6ic--Useful Too.

Anything in the nature Of a chem
zeal experiment Is always interesting
and usually educative. Here is a
simple experiment which any child
can perform and which is instructive
in a very practical way: Get a bit of
White Lead about the size of a pea. a
piece OF charcoal, common candle
in a candlestick, and a blow-pipe.
Scoop out a little hollow in the char
coal to hold the White Lead, then
and lead in one hand and the blow
pipe In the other, with the large end
of the blow-pipe between the lips;
blow the fame OF the candle steadily
against the bit of White Lead on the
pure 1t will presently resolve itself
into little shining globules of metallic
lead, under the intense heat of the
blow-pipe, leaving no residue.
II, however, the White Lead Is
adulterated in the slightest degree, II
will not wholly change into lead.
So, it will be seen, that this expert
ment is not emily an entertaining
chemical demonstration, but also of
practical use in the home. White

dent of paint. 1t should be bought
pure and unadulterated and mixed
with pure linseed oil. That is the

ment enables any one to know wheth-
er the paint is the kind which will
wear or not.
The National Lead Company guar
antee that white lead taken from
package bearing their Dutch Boy
Painter" trademark will prove abso-
lutely pure under the blow-pipe test;
and to encourage people to make the
test and prove the purity of paint be-
fore using 1t, they will send free q

paint to any one writing them asking

In bulletin from the United States

The pine got its name from its wide
use by the Indians as a support for
their tepees. Since the Indians Of
the Rocky Mountain region dragged
their lodge poles to the plains when
on hunting trips, a timber of requis-
lite height but small diameter was
sought, and this the lodgepole pine
provided without trimming. The
names of white pine, black pine,
spruce, and tamarack are also applied
locally. In Wyoming, lodgepole pines
are more numerous than any other
