The department of agriculture has
recently been informed that certain OF
its publications dealing with eucalyp-
tus have been misquoted by several
companies interested in selling lands.
For instance, Circular 81 of the Forest
Service has been misrepresented as
saying that California will in a few
years be the only source of hardwood
supply in the United States. Such a
statement has never been made in any
OF the forest service publications and
is not considered fact.
The department experts believe that
cess in the cultivation of eucalyptus
trees in many parts of California. but
estimates of profit and OF growth have
been attributed to the department
which are unauthorized. There are
many uncertainties connected with
eucalyptus culture, the government ex-
perts say, which tie investor should
take into account.
In some cases statements falsely at
tributed to the forest service in adver-
tising matter have been corrected
when attention was called to the
facts. but not before the misstate-
ments had been widely circulated.
Secretary Wilson says he does not in
tend to allow his department to be
used as a means of victimizing the
public. and that in future any con-
Germ which attributes to the forest
service unauthorized statements may
expect the statements to pc publicly

Naples. under Spanish rule in the
eighteenth century, was overrun with
lawyers. OF their profusion Joseph
Addison had this to say.
ut Is incredible how great multi
tude of retainers to the law there are
at Naples. 1t Is commonly said that
when Innocent XI had desired the
Marquis of Campo to furnish him
with 10000 head of swine the mar
quis answered him that for his swine
he could not spare them, but II his
holiness had occasion for 10000 law
yers he had them at his service"
1t seems to have been golden age
for lawyers. for, as the author says,
there are very few persons Of con
sideration who have not cause de-

Conscience Versus Art.

Shortly after Tennyson's poem "The
Vision Of Sin" appeared an eminent
mathematician sent the poet letter
that ran like this:
Dear Sir--I find In b recent poem OF
yours, entitled The Vision of Sin,'
the following unwarranted statement:
Every moment dies man, and every
moment one is born.' need hardly
point out that this calculation, IL cor
rect, would tend to keep the sum total
Of the worlds population in state Of
perpetual equipoise, whereas it is an
established fact that the said popula-
ton is constantly on the increase. I
would therefore suggest that In the
next edition Of this poem the erroneous
calculation to which / refer should be
corrected as follows: Every moment
dies man. and one and sixteenth Is
born may add that the exact fg-
ures are l.1G7. but something must. of
course, be conceded to the laws of

There is only one strictly technical

to bear coat armor. In the seven
teenth and eighteenth centuries 1t was
used with this significance, and the
bookstall hunter will oc-
casionaly find "So-and-so, gentle
man." written on dusty and stained fly
leaves. But this definition has dropped
out. for now any one may use arms
who chooses to pay for an arms H.
Icense. The inland revenue takes your
guinea or two guineas without inquir-
ing us to your right to bear arms. And.
though the heralds' college has the
right to grant arms to those who can
afford to pay the necessary fees. it
cannot prevent people from using
arms to which they have no right
