RECLAlslNe WASTE LANDS IN EUROPE.

Europe is conquering the
waste land problem by planting
trees. Every year thousands of
acres Of land are being re-
claimed in this way by the lead
ing countries and put in a condi-
ton preparatory TO a profitable
tim Der harvest in the years to
come.
Not only many previously for
ested areas which have been cut
over have been planted up, but a
number of the countries are al
so devoting their energies to es-
tablishing a forest cover on
dunes and other waste lands.
and in fact, on all land which is
more valuable for producing tim
Der than for other purposes.
france has been one of the
foremost European countries in
reforestation, especially in the
mountains, where planting has
been powerful factor in CON
trolling torrents and regulating
streamflow. The State each
year buys uncultivated lands in
the mountain regions, and up to
January, 1907, it had acquired
$4,000 acres in this way. Com
munes, associations and private
individuals are also assisted in
reforestation work by grants of
money and by supplies of plants
and seeds. Altogether $4,000
acres have been planted through

SHOE SIZES.
How the Standard Of Measurement
Was Established


II is most difficult for many persons
to remember the sizes of their differ
ent articles Of wearing apparel. Col
lars. shirts and gloves are easy enough,
because in the case Of these 1t Is q
matter Of actual inches But the hat
and shoe numbers are what puzzle
most people. to say nothing of the
mystery why No. II stocking goes
with a No. s shoe.
This last puzzle is, however. easily
explained. Stockings have always
been measured by the inch from heel
to toe. but the numbering Of shoes
was fixed a long time ago by a French
man.
The Frenchman permanently fixed
the numbers Of shoes for all Europe
and America. He arbitrarily decided
that no human foot could possibly be
smaller than three and seven-eighth
hches. So. calling this point zero, he
allowed one-third Of an inch to size
and accordingly built up his scale. 1t
follows therefrom that a man cannot
find out the number Of his own shoe
unless he be an expert arithmetician.
Even then he is likely to so wrong
because all the shoe experts allow for
the weight Of the individual and the
build of his foot before they try to
determine what size shoe he ought to
wear
AS far as women's shoes are con-
cerned the problem is still more diff
cult. because many of the manufac'
turers instead Of keeping to the regu-
lar scale have marked down their
numbers one or two sizes in order to
capture easily hattered customers For
this reason most dealers ask out OF
town customers to send an old shoe
with their orders.
The system of measuring hats is
much simpler Any man can tell what
size he wears simply by adding the
width and length of the inner brim
and then dividing by two. Orders can
also be sent to the shopkeeper by
stating the circumference of the head.
