New Record in Timber Cut Established

might be thought that the amount
actually manufactured must have been
greater in the earlier year. This. how
ever, would be a too hasty inference,
for it is almost wholly among mills
of small individual output that the
gain in the number of establishments
reporting has been made.
Before the year closed the general
business depression was severely felt
in the lumber industry. 1t was not,
however, the most important cause
OF a falling off in the production of
the year where a falling off occurred.
For decline in production took place
only in certain regions. The south is
the region of greatest activity in lum-
Der production, and yellow pine the
most important wood, forming 33 per
cent. of the entire cut of the country.
The cut Of yellow pine reported shows
an increase of 10 per cent. over that
OF 1906. In the early part of the year
many of the southern mills cut so
heavily that, in spite of the curtailed
output which followed the business
disturbance later, the total was great
er than eve before. But in both the
lake states and the northwest a
smaller cut was reported than for
1906, though the number of mills re-
porting increased.

MiIIet on the Farm,

Many farmers find it an advantage
to seed such fields in the summer to
millet, as might otherwise lie idle for
the year. When it happens that low
places in the field are flooded with
water in the early spring and when
these places in the field cannot be
seeded to any other grain on account
of %lateness of the season OF places
where the corn has been drowned
out" destroyed by hail or injured by
any other cause; where fields are
summer fallowed, where the object is
to rid the land of foul weeds and
where a supplementary crop to feed
stock in place of permanent pastures
and meadows, is desired, in all OF
these cases millet can be grown with
profit.
Millet, when cut quite early in its
growth, and is we'll cured, will give
to live stock in the fall and winter.
1t acts as a laxative. However, dur
ing winter months one feed of millet
hay a day along with other forage or
hay, fed to live stock, will act as an
alterative-it will tend to produce
and to maintain a healthy condition
of the animals. Millet fills an import
ant place as a forage crop to the
feeder of live stock in the winter
