THE CAR you GET is ALWAYS

A Lad. a lassle. and a sneeder.

Sunday morning last, a city gent
of about 18 summers, who Is rus
ticating at Beach Lake, hired rig,
secured the company of his best girl
and started on a trip to Honesdale.
Everything went smoothly until,
when within about two miles from
town, John gathered the whip and
reins firmly and touched up" old
Bob. Now Bob is an old-time track
nag and hasn't entirely forgotten
his early training, and when the
unexpected summons came, presto!
they were off John was startled.
He pulled on the reins, shouted
whoa" pulled harder, but away
blithely skipped Robert. 1t took
but a short time to reach Main
street, and then he was just getting
down to his gait. The people, who
were returning from divine service,
were astonished and shocked at the
reckless behavior of this stranger,
who with white and agitated face,
was leaning we'll forward and still
bravely endeavoring to pull the
beast backward into the buggy.
The young lady, though evidently
not entirely composed, never uttered
a sound, but hung to the seat with
both hands. Whizz!-and they
were lost in the dust and the dis
tance. At North Park, which is at
the further end of the borough, old
Bob weakened. He was tired and
covered with foam. The young man
climbed tremblingly down, turned
the outfit about and with both
hands on the bride, led the fiery
beast back to a hotel, where hostlers
were put to work upon his heaving
frame. "Nevah was so frightened in
me loife!" calculated the young
man, when he was told that IL he
hadn't pulled" the nag he would
have been quiet enough. The young
lady smiled sardonically, as she
remarked: Thought you knew all
about horses, John" On the re-
turn trip staid and practical
.Honesdale nag hauled the buggy.

 Constable Bloseher of Leonia, N. J., is a practical joker of the first water; at least, he was, until he had an expert enee the other day, which may have soured him on practical jokes for all time. The other afternoon he went down to Fort Lee with a pair of hand cuffs in his pocket. He was fairly itch ing with desire to have his little joke, and at last the opportunity came. Com. ing back on the Hudson River trolley line, he playfully snapped the steel bracelets upon the wrists of the con ductor of the, car. The conductor did not enjoy the joke so much as did the constable and the other passengers, but he laughed good .naturedly with them, while he asked Bloscher to free him. The constable, still shaking with laugh ter, fished out his key, put it in the lock and--broke it off in the lock. The con conductor had an awful time ringing up fares, collecting nickels and punching transfers with his manaeled hands and not until he came back to Fort Lee could he get off duty and have the hand cuffs fled off his wrists.
 
 It is not exactly known how the ru- nor originated that Mrs. Corey, the wife of the steel magnate, had become sui fragette.

But they were doomed to be disappoint- ed. The charming wife of the million aire steel man has lost none of the beau ty which was her principal stock in trade when she was plain Mabelle Gil man. Why, then, should she turn suffra- gettef Both she and her husband laughed when the interviewer asked her whether she had actually become a suf- fragette. "Not much," was the reply.

much thought will be given to growing it, though not as much work. How much wood grows on an acre in year3
 Some of the abused, burnt, washed and neglected lands are producing only little. It has been estimated that the typical hardwood regions of Tennessee, where fire is kept out, are growing at least 5000 pounds of wood yearly per acre. Good stands of young pines in other parts of the country are probably doing as well or better. But this is not
 he limit, for foresters say woodland can do much better under forestry methods. Good timber must be selected, the poor cut out, just as the farmer plants the best kinds of corn and rejects the poor. In Europe where they raise crops of trees they get, under favorable condi- tions, an annual growth of 4,500 pounds to 6,500 pounds of wood per acre. This country can do at least as we'll
 The freight carriers, however, seldom transport the whole wood growth. The waste is left in the woods or at the mill. This is much or little, depending upon what is made of the wood before the transportation company gets 1t. It is hppdIeHl, HOWtNtfy thdI dliel ucuuCtlhB s for waste, the growth of an acre of tim Der furnishes more freight than an acre of any one of the agricultural crops ex' cept cabbage, onions and potatoes.
 The quantity of any one of these three commodities that will go to the market is limited by demand, but the demand for lumber is not diminishing. All that the forests and planted lots can supply will go to the market.
 Woodland, under care, yields yearly crops as regularly as wheat fields. The marketable timber only Is cut at regular intervals and new growth is always coming on. As freight producer, a timber tract may be depended upon as surely as a potato field. In fact, it IS surer; for land in farm crops wears out unless constantly fertilized, but timber land fertilizes itself with it's leaves and becomes richer. It will yield undimin, ished crops forever.
 Trees grow on rough lands where .agri culture cannot profitably be carried on and the freight and other returns from such regions are largely clear gain since such land would otherwise be producing | little or nothing.

Lumber is one of the chief freight commodities produced by land. Its weight per acre surpasses corn, barley, oats, wheat and rye.
 Few people are aware of the care used by railroads in keeping tab of the pro. ductiveness of land along their lines from the standpoint of the amount of freight produced by various crops. Hea. vier the crops per acre, the more busi. ness for the railroads. Nor are there many people who think of lumber as a crop, and one of the most important crops at that, which contributes a large share of the freight business of rail roads.
 The quantity of freight produced by crop depends upon soil, region and kind of crop. Railroads figure it from that point of view. Their profit de- bends upon tonnage and class, and they want to know what crop pays the car T. CT best.
 Many averages in many localities ar" necessary to reach reliable results. Care is necessary, too, in applying to one re- zion the figures obtained in another. In diana, Illinois and Kentucky are the center of vast productive region, and averages there possess as much value as those of any part of the country, but, of course, they cannot be applied every where. An acre is credited with yield as follows:

As the list shows, the three heaviest freight producing crops are cabbage, on. ions and potatoes. Lumber is fourth. Up to the present time timber has been cut almost exclusively from wild land, without much regard to the acres gone over. But the time is coming when the yield of wood per acre will be calculated as carefully as the yield of corn, and as
