PUT LIMBURGER IN HER SHOE
Rejected Suitor Adopts Novel Method
Of Getting Even with Fair Cal
ifornia Waitress.

San Francisco.-Placing limburger
cheese in the shoe OF the young lady
who refused to accept his affections,
was the manner in which William
Linz, steward at the Sunset cafe, ia
alleged to have vented his anger on
Miss Emma Schultz, a fair waitress
working at the same restaurant.
Linz appeared before Justice Weller
to face the charge of battery preferred
against him by the young woman.
When Miss Schultz took the witness
stand, she was asked what the ac-
cused man had done to her.
'He tried to make me love him."
she said. "and when refused he put
limburger cheese in my shoe. Then
when | became angry at this nasty
thing, he struck me over the face and
hurt me-"
Linz took the stand and testified
that he had done nothing to annoy
the beautiful waitress and declared
emphatically that he did not strike
her.

North Carolina Farmer Tells Of Bat
tie Between kingsnake and Rat
~ tler-Former -Is Victor.

Wadesboro. N. C.-While in Wades.
boro a few days ago j. Frank Ran
dali of Ansonviile township gave a
graphic description of fight he saw
a day before between "a kingsnake

considerably larger than the king
snake. and to- look at them one would
not tfifnkrit possible for, the smaller
reptile to. swallow the larger one. but
this. Mt, Randall states. is just what
occurred. -
The fight, which took place in the
road near Mr.. Rsndall's home, was
witnessed by all the members of hts
family as well as himself. After the
battle had been in progress some time
the kingsnake managed to tie himself
around the body of the rattler about
ten inches from the latter's head.
The rattler, after this feat had been
accomplished, made several attempts
to strike his antagonist. but without
success. The kingsnake slowly
worked its way UP the body OF the rat
tier until suddenly II opened wide its
mouth and swallowed the head of the
rattler. Just as the swallowing feat
was accomplished the kingsnake
squeezed It's prey until. Mr.. Randall
said, its bones could be heard to
crack for some distance. The king
snake then united itself from the rat

Yearly Output Is Twenty Billion
Cubic Feet at Present.
We Are Cutting Our Timber Supply
Three Times as Fast as II Grows
Exploitation Already Had
Serious Effect.

Washington. THE total yearly
drain upon our forests. not counting
losses from fires, storms. and insects,
is some 20000,OOO,00O cubic feet.
says r. s. Kellogg, assistant forester
in charge of the Office of forest sta
tistics, in a publication just issued
by the forest service on The Timber
Supply of the United States"
Our present forest area of $780,
100000 acres may be roughly estimat-
ed to consist of 200.000,0O0 acres of
mature forests, in which the annual
growth is balanced by death and de-
cay. of 250.000,000 acres partially cut
or burned over, on which, with rea-
sonable care, there is sufficient young
growth to produce in the course of
atime a merchantable, but not full
crop of timber, and 100,000,000 acres
of more severely-cut and burned-over
forests, on which there is not sufii-
cient young growth to produce an
other crop OF much value.
Taken as a whole, the annual
growth of our forests under these
conditions does not exceed ~ cubic
feet per acre, total OF less than
7.000,000.000 cubic feet That is. we
are cutting our forests three times as
fast as they are growing. There is
menace in the continuance of such
conditions. While we might never
reach absolute timber exhaustion, the
unrestricted exploitation of our for.
ests in the past has already had seri-
GUS effects, and II will have much
worse II 1t is allowed to continue un-
checked.

was once considered inexhaustible.
has fallen off 20 per cent. In cut since
1890. and more than As per cent
elnce 1900. The cut of oak, our most
valuable hardwood lumber. has de-
creased 16 per cent. since 1900, and
that of yellow poplar 22 per cent.
The same story will be told of other
woods II they are not conserved.
"The fact that timber has been
cheap and abundant has made us
careless of It's production and reck-
less in its use. We take $50 cubic
feat. OF .Nleoua p sc-eapita annually from
our forests. while Germany uses only
81 cubic feet, and France but 25. On
the other hand, Germany. who has
learned her lesson, makes her state
forests produce an average of 4S cubic
feet of wood per acre. We have as
fast-growing species as Germany, or
faster, and as good or better forest
soil If we protect 1t.
THE necessity for more farm land
may eventually reduce or total for
est area to 1OO,OO0.OOO acres less
than Il is at present 1t is entirely
possible. however. to produce on 450.-
100000 acres as much wood as
population much greater than We
have now will really need If all the
forest land is brought to its highest
producing capacity, and If the prod
uct. is economically and completely
utilized But to reach the necessary
condition of equilibrium between TIM
ber production and consumption will
take many years of vigorous effort by
individual forest owners, by the
states, and by the national govern
ment. None of them can solve the
problem alone; all must work to-
gether."

Better Roads Talked.

CHEHALIS-About a hundred dele
gates, representing different portions
of Lewis County, assembled here in
response to a call to organize Lewis
County Good Roads Association. A
motion was carried that one member
be chosen from each of the 10 road
districts of the county to constitute
a committee on permanent organiza-
ton. The address of welcome was
by Mayor West, and later Governor
Hay was introduced.
Discussing the subject of roads, the
Governor reiterated his position that
he was not over-enthusiastic in favor
of the state road, but was more ia
vOrable to the state-aid plan. He also
favored a tax on automobiles, based
on horsepower
