SURVEY OF FOREST.
Experts Are Working Near Martins
Hill.

A party of men is at Cedar Crest
Frank P. MacLennan'S country home
consisting of Assistant State Forester
Robt. E. Eastman and three assistants,
for the purpose of making a survey OF
25 acres of timber land near Martins
Hill.
Last winter the legislature put the
work of the state forestry department
In charge of the K. S. A. c. with Prof.
Albert Dickens as state forester. and
Robt. Z. Eastman assistant forester In
charge of the field work.
The work of this department will in
clude a general forestry survey of the
state in connection with which will be
determined the different kinds of forest
trees which have not been disturbed by
the thrush of population and the rela-
tive numbers in which they are found
This will be done with the view of aid
ing in the direction of the oversight of
forest resources of the state. and the
determination of the species best
adapted to the climatic conditions
knowledge will also be CLEANED which
will be of service in connection with
the planting of profitable forest trees,
which will include the nut bearing
trees catalpa and other trees that can
be used for fence and telegraph pole
purposes. The rough lands may likely
be planted in red cedars while on the
sandy soils it is likely that the start
ing of forests of such quick growing
trees as will hold the sand from drift
ing and will enable the soil to become
dergroWth, will be recommended. In
the latter case the moisture would be
conserved and floods prevented.
Mr.. Eastman and his assistants are
doing their early work here and will
remain in camp about a week.

That's good. but before 1 take this
whisky, I want you men to smell my
breath and testify, if need be, that I
had not been drinking when this hap

Although suffering horrible agonies.
the brave engineer would not touch the
stimulant until four of the men had
smelled his breath and promised to
bear witness of his sobriety.
"All an engineer has is his record, -
he said feebly land he cannot afford
to have anything against that"
And Engineer Bush went out upon

IMPROVEMENT GOES ON.
Trade and Industry Reports Are
Generally Good.

New York, Aug. 14.-Bradstreet's
says:
Improvement is more manifest in
general trade and industry this week
but there is still present the feeling of
conservatism hitherto noted, which
makes for small and frequent rather
than heavy individual sales De-
Velopments have been largely favor
able. Chief among these is increased
arrivals of buyers in most markets
a greater disposition to take hold for
rail- and spring delivery and a very
favorable government crop report
Jobbing trade expands most rapidly
and retail trade is now engaged in
digesting the remnants of summer
business.
The railroad situation is improving
and idle cars are disappearing on the
western lines as the winter wheat
movement enlarges. Industries are
active, iron and steel leading. with
railroads reported buying freely of
rails, cars and locomotives. There is
scarcity of help in some sections Col
lections show a little improvement,
but as yet do not reflect the influence
of new crop marketing. Building is
active.
Business failures in the United
States for the week ending August
II were 219 against 1874 last week.
249 in the like week of 1908. 146 in
1SOl, 14S In 1915 and 141 IN 1913.
Wheat, including flour, exports
from the United States and Canada
for the week ending August IL aggre-
gate 1.7S5,755 bushels against 1884,
558 last week and 3,760,727 this week
last year.
For the six weeks ending August
IL exports are S,714,044 against 16,-
856,704 in the corresponding period
last year.
Corn exports for the week are 139.-
400 bushels against 5S.577 last week
and 3S.917 in 1908. For the six
weeks ending August IL, corn exports
are 527.554 bushels against S61, 157
