Damaging Pine Trees.

SO much damage has lately been
done to Southern forests by the pine
beetle, bark boring insect, that the
United States Department of Agri-
culture has established a field station
at Spartanburg, S. G. for special
study of.the insect. Mr.. I. w. Tur-
neris in charge of the station and
anyone whose pine trees ara dying
should get intouch with him at once.
The loss from this insect may be
enormous if steps are not taken to
check its ravages, and it is high time
anyway, for the people of the South
to begin taking care of their /, timber.
These often neglected pine forests
are one of our richest heritages, but
we have been fearfully wasteful and
careless with them. A change in
this respect can not come to soon

LADY DECIES SUBMITS
TO KNIFE OF SURGEON
American Wife Of English Peer IN
dergoes Operation Following
Attack Of Appendicitis.

LONDON. May 1c.--Lady Decies, who
before her marriage to Lord Decies was
Miss Helen Vivien Could underwent an
operation for appendicitis this morning.
The surgery was done at the residence
of her mother in-law. Dowager Lady De-
cies, and according to subsequent an
nouncement the result was most satisfac-
tory.
I now appears that Lady Decies has
been suffering from more or less severe
attacks of appendicitis for some time,
and among intimate friends of the fam
lily it had been frequently stated that
she was about to submit to an operation.
Suffers Acute Attack.
These statements were always denied.
and only yesterday, In reply TO inquiries
concerning the condition of his wife.
Lord Decies wrote that. while she had
experienced some trouble from the cause
reported, an operation was unnecessary.
It is now explained that a more acute
attack occurred last evening and q re-
sort to surgery was suddenly decided
upon.
No Danger Apprehended.
Lady Decies attended the second court
Of King George last night and was one
of the American women presented to the
king and queen. Her health Is In general
perfectly normal and the physicians feel
certain that there is not the slightest
danger to be apprehended from the ope-
ration.
The most trustworthy information In
regard to Lady Dec!es Is that week ago
Yesterday she was examined by Lord
Decies' Windsor physician. who advised
that an operation be performed after the
infiammat ton from which she then suf-
fered had entirely abated. 1t was accord
ingly decided to follow this advice. and
the Windsor physician completed the
necessary preliminary arrangements, the
acute attack making immediate action
necessary.
