Some of the finest and most attractive
residences in San Francisco are located in
PRESIDIO TERRACE-some now building
there. The reasons why Presidio Terrace was
chosen for these permanent homes are as
Follows:
The first and most important reason is this:
NO BUILDING SAVE A RESIDENCE CAN
BE ERECTED IN Preside TERRACE.
There the location is well adapted and all
of the surroundings in conformity with
home place, and last, but not least. lots sell
for $3.50 and up a foot in the terrace, as
compared to $500 10 $500 foot in like loca-

FARM ANIMALS IN MAINE.

They are nothing but estimates of the
department of agriculture, given in round
numbers. Nevertheless the number of
farm animals in the United States, Jan
uary l, 1909, are not pleasing so far as
they relate to the State of Maine, for
they show decline in almost all classes.
By the census of 1909 the numbers of
meat cattle in Maine was 1888, 847; of
horses, 106, 299: of sheep, APO, 116; of
swine; 79,01S; of mules, 35S; of asses
and burros, 48; and of goats, 279. The 1909
estimates are: neat cattle, 1924, 900; horses
~, 600; sheep, $4,000; swine, $4,000.
This shows decline in all but horses.
which have increased 10000. There is
also an increase of about 1900 in dairy
cows, although all cattle have fallen off
about $4,000. Sheep have increased 81
per cent if the figures are correct, and
swine IA per cent. The figures would
appear to indicate general decline save
IN dairying and breeding, while in
the country at large the number of do
mestic animals has increased moderately
IN every class. Various men will prob
ably seize the figures for the purpose of
supporting their various views. Thus
the low tariff men will say: Behold the
results of Republican government. !"
Probably the tariff and the party poll
cies have had nothing to do with it: other
wise the decline should have been gen.
eral, instead of being as it is, in fact,
exceptional. Probably the Maine farm
ers are raising less beeves, sheep and
hogs and more horses and mich cows
because they find that dairying and horse
breeding pay better. Portland Press.

SAID TO BE FINE.
This Simple Homemade Treatment viii,
Overcome Rheumatism.

Few people here know that YOU can cure
that dread American disease, Rheumatism,
with Just common, everyday drugs found in
any drug store. The prescription is so simple
that any one can prepare it at home at small
cost 1t is made up as follows: Get from any
good prescription pharmacy Fluid Extract Dan
dehon, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking in a bottle and take
IN teaspoonful doses after each meal and at
bedtime. These are all simple ingredients,
making an absolutely harmless home remedy
at little cost.
rheumatism, as every one knows, is symp-
tom OF deranged kidneys. It is a condition
produced by the failure of the kidneys to prop
erly filter or strain from the blood the uric acid
and other matter, which, if not eradicated,
either in the urine or through the skin pores,
remains in the blood. decomposes and forms
about the joints and muscles, causing the un-
told suffering and deformity of rheumatism.
This prescription is said to be a splendid
healing, cleansing and invigorating tonic to the
kidneys, and gives almost immediate relief in
all forms of bladder and urinary troubles and
backache.

tive that this be first accomplished in
order to properly assemble thu parts
taken from their volumes into books of
nearest the regulation size for our own
registry. The copying to and including
volume 80 has been done, volume 81 is
we'll along, volume IS is now copied and
another copyist is well along in volume
AZ. These have all been compared, some
are finished, some are signed, others are
waiting the final signature before going
to the binder Waldo has larger pro-
portion in the later volumes after the
setting off of Penobscot. While there
were no means of even approximately
estimating the number of conveyances
affecting Waldo, judged there might be
5000, but the examination brought to
light little more than $500, of which
the prosperous town of Frankfort furn-
ished no inconsiderabe share.
A word in regard to copying the alb
stracts from the Probate Court record.
At present, Sec. p of Chap. 65 of the
N@fioeo oIoeueeo PloVIueo lIldI WllHlll
thirty days after will has been allowed
by the Probate Court, the register shall
certify true copy of so much of said
will as devises real estate into the Regis
try of Deeds. where it shall be recorded
in the same manner as deed of real es-
tate. Chap. 81, Sec. Is, makes similar
provision in regard to returns of COM
missioners of partition, so that at pres
ent all matters relating to the passing or
descent of real estate may be found in
one Office and by means of the same in
deX.
During the time covered by the records
now being copied these laws did not OBJ
tain, and in the act authorizing the copy
ing of the deeds, provision for copying
the above named abstracts was accident
ally omitted.
1t will be seen that as the average
man gives several deeds during his bust
ness life, he passes through the Probate
Court but once, some of them not at all,
and Of those whose estates are settled
therein, but short abstract is required
in the registry of deeds in order that
there may not be missing link in the
record title. Also this should be done at
the same time in order that there need
be but one index. Some have gained the
impression that it is proposed to copy the
whole probate records, which would be
useless proceeding

LINCOLN'S BIRTHPLACE.

1t is now Marked by Monument.
HoDGENvILLE, KY, Feb. r. Henceforth the
birthplace of Abraham Lincoln is to be marked
by pile of stone. The emancipation of race
and the liberator of the thought of nation
builded his own monument in the heart of the
world and appropriately the physical structure
which has now found beginning at the place
where Lincoln first saw the light, takes the
simpler name of memorial. 1t is to be sim
pie but classic building of granite and it is hop
ed that it may be completed some time next
fall, when the then president, William H. Taft,
will officiate in defeating it as the present
president, Theodore Roosevelt officiated today
in laying its cornerstone.
The cornerstone laying took place after ap-
propriate ceremonies, which were participated
in by the President, Governor Augustus EVIL
son of Kentucky, Ex-Governor Joseph W. Folk
of Missouri, president of the Lincoln Farm
association; Luke E. Wright, secretary of war,
who spoke as an ex-confederate soldier; Cen
eral James Grant Wilson of New York, who
represented the Union soldiers and l. T. Mont
gomery of Mississippi, a negro and ex-slave.
The ceremony was full of interesting and
novel features apart from the occasion which
inspired it and not the least interesting was
the character of the crowd which composed
the audience of between 5000 and 5000.

THE EFFECT OF EXCESSIVE DEFOR.
ESTATION.

WASHINGTON, D. C. February 18th.
''What has been the effect of the trem-
endous consumption of timber upon our
forests?" This question is often asked
by people in various sections of the coun-
try, and often the information of the
average man on the subject is not definite
enough to enable him to make a clear and
satisfactory answer. R. S. Kellogg, as
sistant forester, engaged upon statistics
in the United States Forest Service, in
giving concise answer to the import
ant question says,
CHOW our annual requirements exceed
forty billion feet of timber, one hundred
million cross-ties, four million cords of
pulp wood, besides great quantities of
other forms of forest products, such as
firewood, posts, poles, mine timbers, ETC.
The per capita consumption of lumber in
the United States was 215 board feet in
1850, now it is 470 board feet.
One forest region after another has
been attacked. With the exception of
Nl d1llS, CIlC 1NCW oCdCco are CuL-
ting mostly second or third growth tim
Der. The box factories there take white
pine saplings down to six inches in diam
eter. The so-called ''inexhaustible''
white pine forests of Michigan are gone,
and millions of acres of cut-over and
burned-over land have gone upon the
delinquent tax list. Michigan supplied
% per cent of the lumber production of
the United States in 1880, and less than
per cent of it in 1907.
1.-THE value of the lumber production
in Michigan since 1849 has been so per
cent greater than the output of gold in
California, and it has all taken place
without thought for the future. The
cream of our hardwoods is gone, and it is
becoming more and more difficult to get
in sufficient quantity the high grades Of
oak, yellow poplar, ash and hickory that
our great manufacturing industries re-
quire. The South's once great supply of
yellow pine is rapidly giving way before
axe and saw, fire and tornado. Half
generation more will, in most places, see
little but remnants left of the Southern
forests, and in that time the Pacific
coast supplies will be heavily drawn
upon.
"Ours is primarily wood-using civil
cation. Despite the introduction Of sub
stitutes of wood in the form of stone,
cement, concrete, and steel, our con-
sumption of timber has constantly in
creased from the earliest days up to the
present time. The prices of forest pro-
ducts have risen more rapidly than those
of other commodities. According to the
reports of the Bureau of Labor, the
quoted prices of the leading kinds of lum-
Der on the New York market have risen
twice as much in the last ten years as
the average increase in all commodities.
This indicates that the supply of timber
is not keeping pace with the demand"

The National Irrigation Congress.

SPOKANE, Washington, February 10Th.
Governor Bert M. Fernald of Maine
writes to R. 1nsinger, chairman of the
local board of control of the 18th Nation
al Irrigation Congress, which will meet
in Spokane August 9th to 18th, that it
would give him great pleasure to attend
the sessions, as matters Of interest to the
people of his State and to the entire coun-
try will be discussed. He adds: cit is
doubtful, however, if our people would
make an appropriation sufficient for the
attendance Of myself and staff"

wonder, children, if you know
The place where little kittens grow,
Like apples on the apple trees
No, can't tell. Don't ask me, please.
But just this tiny hint I'll give
Go where the pussy willows live,
Or, if you think it's not too far,
Down where the waving cat-tails are.
Then, with piece of dogwood bark,
Stand very quietly and-Hark!
There, did you hear the kittens NEW!
They must have heard the dog bark too.
Well you have frightened them away
Try it without the bark some day.
