COSTLY MATTRESSES.
The Kind That Are Used on the Big
 Plate Glass Wagons.

The Kind That Are Used on the 8la
 Plate Glass Wagons.
 Probably about as costly a sort of mattress as any is one that is made not to sleep on at all, but to spread on the long, broad table or platform of the wagons built for carrying plate glass.
 These mattresses, which are made of curled hair, are very thin, scarcely thicker than a comfortable, and must he made with the greatest care to in-
 e perfect uniformity of thickness.
 lump anywhere would be likely to
 .'eak the plate of glass resting upon it. and there would be still greater danger if the weight of two plates of glass was rested on the lump at once.
 A mattress for a plate glass wagon costs, according to size, from $60 to $75. In use the corners of smaller plates carried on 1t cut into the tick ing covering, and sooner or later 1t has to be made over. Simply to make over such a mattress costs from $2O to $25.
 On the table topped and mattress covered glass wagons the biggest plates are carried with confidence and safety. The table is built to remain absolutely rigid, and the thin but uni form mattress protects the plate from jar.
 Before plate glass store fronts had come into common use, when the han ding of a big plate was counted as q good deal more of a job than it is now. they used to carry a great pane of glass in a sort of frame, which was put on the wagon with the glass in it. At it's destination this frame or sup port was worked carefully across the sidewalk to the store front, where the glass was dislodged from it to be set. and altogether the setting of a great plate of glass was then quite an un- .dertaking
 NoM3 with the setting of such plates common daily occurrence and with men skilled in the handling of them, they simply carry a big plate out and lay 1t on their mattress covered table topped wagon and carry it to where 1t is to go and there slide it of, to rest it for a moment on blocks on the side walk, and then they pick 1t up and carry 1t to the window front.
 Then they run under the lower edge of the glass lifting straps, by which men standing inside the window as well as men standing outside can lift on 1t when the glass Is put into place in the window frame. There again 1t is raised on blocks until the straps can be withdrawn, and then the blocks are taken out and the glass secured in place. all this being done with great care, but still with comparative ease and Quickness and with certainty, and in these times great panes of glass are thus moved and set on all but the wlndlest days.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Ensilaue Hints.

Three tons of silage are generally
counted equal in feeding to one ton Of
hay. \ yield Of fifteen tons of corn
per acre is considered fair one.
y silo is not an expensive structure.
One built of slaves to hold eighty tons
can be built inside Of barn for S775.
Coed silage depends on the stage of
maturity of the corn. the air tightness
of the silo and carefully filling the silo
so that the Stage will settle evenly.
An animal will consume about Gu
bic foot of silage thirty to forty
pounds daily. This can be used as a
basis for estimating the size of the silo
needed
Build the silo twice as high as it is
In distance across. Make it air tight
and strong enough to resist the lateral
pressure, often amounting to several
hundred pounds per square foot at the
bottom

ears are largely responsible for poor
stands Of corn, and they make it neces-
sary to plant more seed than is needed,
thus making thinning compulsory.
It Is natural for the corn to cross.
There is even an interval of two to
four days between the time of silking
and the shedding of the pollen of the

HARD WOODS OUT WEST.
Experiments With Eastern Growth b,
the Forestry Department.

SHS VI SSkt SSPos
1t will interest owners Of forests In
any section of the country to hear that
the hard woods of the east are to be
cyperimented with on the Pacific coast.
The United States forest service is
planning 10 introduce Il number of the
more important eastern hard woods
into California and will this year ex-
pertinent with chestnut. hickory. bass
wood, red oak and yellow poplar or
tulip trees. Small patches of these
trees will be planted near the forest
rangers cabins on the n''i ~ forests,
and if these Go well larger Plantations
on Il commercial scale will soon be es-
tablished on wider areas.
There are over 1875 different species
of trees in California. a number OF
which produce some Of the most valu-
able varieties of lumber In the coun.
try. Although considerably over one
half of the species are hardwood or
broad leaved trees. yet. with the eXcep.
ton CT the exotic eucalyptus. there Is
not single species of hard wood here
ranking in commercial Importance
with the leading eastern hard woods
Climatic conditions in many parts OF
California are undoubtedly favorable
fer the growth Of a number of the val.
liable hard woods. and the absence OF
these trees is due mostly to. unfavor.
able factors Of secd distribution.
If the experiments are successful a
valuable asset will have been added to
the forest resources of California
which should prove of special benefit
to the local furniture and vehicle in
dustries. Chestnut and red oak are
highly esteemed fer furniture.
