The officers in charge of the work, however, preserve a dis erect reticence regarding the concluS- ions.

 Additional cutting away of the wreckage reveals sections of the bot tom and sides of the forward part lifted up and reversed, evidently by tremendous exterior force. which is apparently inconsistent with the the oT'y that this condition was due solely to magazine explosions.

SENATOR PARK SAYS
 CONNECTICUT WOOL IS OK.
Market Can Be Found for All of 1t
 That Is Raised.

At the recent meeting of the Con necticut Sheep Breeders association, held in this city, it was said that the competition of the western states was responsible for the failure of the sheep raising industry in Connecticut. says the Hartford Times It was said that it was impossible to raise sheep in competition with the west. If that is fact it is to be feared that the prospect of the pastures and uplands uf Connecticut swarminS with sheep and lambs must remain an unrealized dream. There is no way to put a tariff or any other kind of an embargo on sheep or cattle from the west except by reasons which relate to the public health The states of the union cannot build up tariff walls against one an another. But is that competition from the west as serious as it was stated to be-
 It used to be a common remark that the farmers of the state could not engage in the wool raising industry because of competition. Sena tor Angus Park of the Twentieth district, who is engaged In the wool business, showed the fallacy of that statement at the last session of the general as sembIy when he said. in a discussion one day in the senate, on bill to prevent the destruction of sheep by dogs that it was ridiculous to say that superior wool could not be raised in this state. He said it would, and that a market could be easily secured for every pound that was raised Isn't it quite possible that the theory about western competition in regard to nut ton and lamb, which is so generally entertained, may be just as fallacious as the idea in regard to Connecticut wool which Senator Park combated in the senate? There was a time when it was thought that peaches could not be grown at a profit in this state. Since that idea was exploded many farmers throughout Connecticut have become rich in the raising of the fruit The land of Connecticut has greater potentialities than what many who are engaged in it's cultiva- connection the remark of Senator Joseph w AIsop of Avon is recalled. It will be rem enabered the governor of the state of Washington, in his ad- dress to the senate at the last session, referred to the agricultural advan- tages of his state and pointed out the superiority of it's soil. When the sen ators adjourned for the day, Senator AIsop remarked to a group of his colleagues, who were discussing the remarks of the governor from the west, that much better crops can be raised in Connecticut than in Wash ington. The senator was willing to back his opinion by a wager Many people have d mistaken idea of agri- culture in this state as an industry. They, too. readily conclude that 1t does not pay. It is true, there is some thng about farming which does not pay: but it is not the land. It is very often the farmers idea of farming which is unprohtable-

NEW ENGLAND
 TREES IN WINTER. There Are One Hundred and Eleven Much Different Proposition Than in Summer.


 New England Trees in Winter is the title of bulletin No. 69 just issued by the Storrs Agricultural Experiment station of Connecticut the authors be- ing A. F. Blakeslee. professor of bot any, COnneC lieut. Agricultural college, and C. D. Jarvis, hOrticulturist. Storrs < griculturaI Experiment station.
 This bulletin has descriptions and illustrations of one hundred and eleven Of the common trees or New Englan as they appear in winter A tree in winter is quite q different proposition from the same tree in summer. when the branches are all hidden by foliage. This bulletin not only describes the trees and their habits of growth. but the illustrations show the complete tree and it's branching habits. the bark and buds and in many cases the seeds or fruit. All the illustrations are from original photographs of living trees, no museum specimens being used In the preface the authors state there Is no general work upon American trees which combines illustrations of the in Gividual forms with keys for their Identification based upon winter char acters- The forester and Iumberman, however, are more called upon to dis tinguish tree in winter when leaves and flowers are fallen than in summer. Trees, as the most conspicuous ele- nents in the winter landscape, must also appeal to the student of outdoor life. The interest shown by classes Of school teachers in the summer school in identifying specimens Of twigs col lected the previous winter indicated that the winter study of trees can be taken up with enthusiasm by teachers in their schools In our experience the winter Identification of trees has proven to students one of the most interesting subjects of their course It is of decided value for it's training in the power of accurate observation. The work comes at a time when material for natural history study seems scanty and might therefore be used to bridge over the period between fall and spring. which are unfortunately con sidered by many the only seasons when study of outdoor life is possible in the schools. A tree in winter is far from being the characterless object many believe Freed from it's covering of leaves, the skeleton of the tree Is re- Tealed, and with the method of branch ing thus clearly discernible the species may generally be more readily identi- fled at distance than in its summer garb. There are many forms. more over, that are difficult to distinguish from summer features alone, but which in winter have twig. bud or other characters which make theiI separation comparatively easy. It is believed that the combina ton of keys text and Illustrations from photo graphs will furnish the assistance which the current text fail To supply and render the identifica ton of our common trees in winter a relatively simple task
 Upon request. copies of this bulletin will be sent free to all readers of Con necticut and to others who are spe- cially interested in trees. Address Storrs Agricultural Experiment Sta ton, Storrs. Conn.
