AUTUMN is HERE.
By JOHN KEATS. '''~.'Hr

Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness 'f T.
Close bosom friend of the maturing sun, f-" p
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the hatoh caves run
To bend with apples the mossed cottage trees
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core
To swell the gourd and plump the hazel shells
With sweet kernel-to set budding more
And still more later flowers for the bees.
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For summer has oerbrimmed their clammy cells
Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy storeI [
Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find :
Thee sitting careless on grsnary floor,
Thy hair soft lifted by the wnnowng wind
Or on half reaped furrow sound asleep
Drowsed with the fume of popp'- while thy hook I.
Spares the next swath and all It's twined flowers
And some time like CLEANER thou dost keep
Steady thy laden head across brook, r
Or by cider press, with patient look r'
Thou wachest the last oozngs, hours by hours.
Where are the songs of spring. Aye where are they
Think not of them--thou hast thy music, too
While barred clouds bloom the soft dying day o{
And touch the stubble plains with rosy hue
Then in wailful choir the small gnats mourn
Among the river salows, borne aloft
Or sinking, as the light wind lives or dies
And full grown lambs loud beat from hiy bourn
Hedge ciiokes sing and now with treble soft
The redbreast whistles from a garden croft S'
And gathering swallows twitter in the skies

BEGINNING OF FORESTRY
IN THE UNITED STATES.
Joshua Humphrey, Constructor Of The
United States Navy Was The
Real Originator Of The
Scheme.

When did the United States begin tn,
practice Of forestryi Few persons car
answer this question correctly. Most
people are Of the opinion that the be-
ginning Of forestry in this country wa.
d very recent origin, and that the first
step in that direction was taken among
the mountains Of the far West. Neither
fact Is correct
While Washington was serving his
first term as president 81 the United
States, recommendation came to him
that the government ought to buy live
oak islands on the coast Of Georgia to
make sure Of supply Of ship timber
for war vessels. The idea appears sto
have originated with Joshua Humph-
reys, whose official title was Con
structor Of the United States Navy" al
though about the only navy then ex-
isting was made up Of six ships on
paper, and not one stick Of timber to
build them had yet been cut. The ves-
sells were designed to fight the north
African pirates.
Five years after the recOmmnendati ton
was made Congress appropriated money
TO buy live oak land Grover and
Blackboard islands on the coast Of
Georgia were bought for s22,500 They
contained 1850 acres.
Louisiana WAS bought soon after, and
IN 1917 the Six Islands, Of 10000 acres,
and containing $1,000 live oak trees,
were withdrawn from sale, and set apart
as reserve. In 1928, Congress appro-
priated $4,000 to buy additional live
oak land on Santa Rosa Sound, west.
ern Florida, and subsequently, other
Florida timberlands, aggregating 207,-
224 acres, were reserved.
Up to that time nothing had been
done than to buy or reserve land for
the timber growing naturally upon II;
but the work WAS % be carried further
upon the Santa Rosa purchase The
plan included planting, protecting, eul-
tiyating, and cutting live oak for the
navy. The timber WAS then considered
indispensable in building war vessels
Much had been said and written OF the
danger Of exhaustion 81 supply Set
tiers destroyed the timber to clear
land, and European nations were buying
large quantities for their navics. In re-
Spouse TO repeated warnings the govern
ment finally took steps to grow timber
for its own use.
Young oaks were planted on the
Santa Rosa lands Difficulty was ex-
perienced IN inducing young trees 30

the oak l. not easy, unless done at the
