DRINK TOO MUCH LIQUOR.
Remarkable Statement Made by the
Commission.

Royal e. Cabell, United States
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue
has made some remarkable state
ments in his annual report showing
that the internal revenue receipts
last year were the best in the history
of the Government, amounting tc
S322,52s,299. Another very remark.
able statement Of Mr. Cabell is that
last year the production of distilled
spirits in the United States was 49,
4o2,395 gallons, or nearly 100000
gallons more than in 1907, the prev
ious banner year.
The production Of beer, ale, ETC.,
aggregated 63,216,S51 barrels, OF
nearly 100000 barrels. more tnan in
the previous banner year, 1910
There are now in the bonded ware
houses of the United States, ripen-
iag for use, 249,279,34S gallons Of in
toxicating liquors. Still another very
remarkable statement in Mr.. Cabell's
report is that there has been a very
large increase in the Illicit manufac-
ture< of liquor in North Carolina
South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee
and Virginia.
The first four Of these States are
supposed to be prohibition and in
Virginia the stuff is sold only in in
corporated cities and towns and then
only in towns in which the question
Of the sale Of the stuff has been sub
mitted to the qualified voters.

THE DYING P1NE-THE REMEDY
requirements for Success in protect
ing the Living Pine.

The requirements for success in
any effort to protect the living pine
from the destructive attack Of the
Southern pine beetle is the destruc-
ton of the broods of the Southern
plne beetle in the bark Of the main
trunks of the dying infested trees be-
fore they leave the bark. This is
accomplished by The adoption Of one
OF more different methods Of direct
utilization Of the infested trunks or
treatment at direct expense in cases
where the wood cannot be utilized,
as specified in Part ". OF this.
The attachments of the best sue
cess from the practical application Of
any Of these methods will depend
OF their adaptation 70 local conditions
aid requirements for disposIng Of the
infested timber and strict adherence
10 certain details which are abso-
lately necessary to the destruction
OF the broods.
The period in which to locate and
mark the trees that are actually in
fcsted and in which the marked trees
should be utilized or treated to kill
the broods is between the 1st Of No.
ycmber and the 1st of the following
March, but in some cases the period
may be extended to the 1st OF May.
TIE adoption Of the method Of de-
stroying the broods,, which in each
case is the most economical and effec-
'tuai, can be determined by the own
ers in each community if they are
sufficiently informed on the essential
facts.
Detailed advice, recommendation
or conclusions as to the most econom-
ical and effective method Of proceed
ure for any given area should be de-
fcrred until certain information IS at
hand in regard to the local condition
as to (a) the character and extent
Of the infestation; (b) the interest
manifested by the people of the COM
nunity in the value to them to the
pine and the Importance Of protect
ing it as the source Of future rev.
elue; (c) the assurance of the ma
jcrity of the owners that concerted
action will be taken according to
definite plan and purpose, and finally,
i. a demonstration Is desired, that
local facilities will be offered for its
successful prosecution.
II the owners Of pine will consider
the c~otection Of their timber from
the standpoint Of a common interest
and will realize the necessity for con-
success will be assured.
