State Forest Commissioner Mace, Satur-
day, affixed his signature to an agreement
whereby the State forestry department
and that of the federal government will con-
duct a cooperative study OF the uitiliza-
tion of forest products OF Maine, princi-
pally hard wood.
The work is to be done by field men In
the employ of the federal forestry depart
ment, the statistics to cover the period for
the year 1911. Commissioner Mace, on his
recent trip to Washington, was able TO
make very satisfactory terms with the
government for this work, which, it is
believed, will be of much benefit.
The result OF this work will be pub
lished as part of the report of the Maine
forestry department for the years 1911-12.

To cure smallpox was apparently q
very simple matter in the good old

he got rid Of the disease by the simple
expedient OF wrapping his patients In

he says. "and let him who Is suffering
smallpox be entirely wrapped In IT or
In some other red goth. | did thus

As an indication OF the increase OF
brown tail moths in Hancock county and
evidence Of the good work accomplished
by the brown-tsil moth contests in
oranges, here are some figures from Har-
borside grange, South Brooksyille; The
winning team collected 1o,772 nests, and
the losers. s,OO0-a total of Is,T72 nests coli
lected by one grangei
The hope held forth that many Of the
brown-ta tail moth caterpillars had been
killed by the extreme cold Of the past win
ter have been dashed by state Commits
missiouer-of Agriculture John 2. Buckley,
who las been experimenting with nests
from various localities. "a lot Of the eggs
have hatched out" says Mr.. Buckley,
notwithstanding the cold weather to
which the nests have been subjected. 10
fact, they are Matching out in almost all
instances where the nests are undisturoed.
Those that have not Matched out are in
nests that in some way have become torn
open and therefore more exposed to the
cold"
Is the hoop-pole industry OF Hancock

fish and game department makes public the
following letter from resident Of q town
adjoining Ellsworth;
II am writing you in regard to the moose in
this section. some Eve or six years ago
purchased tract Of wild land. 200 acres, with
the intention OF maintaining myself and
family, but the moose have come in such
great numbers since that time that they have
almost destroyed the growth, especially the
birch, maple and all kinds of growth. prac-
tically.
Now, we people in this section Of the ccun-
try depend chiefly on hoop-poies and wood for
q living. Four years ago l hired three men
to cut of some scrub birch, commonly called
getchel. paid them eco. besides my own
time, for the hoop poles. The sprouts came
up by the thousand and these moose destroy
annually at least 500 worth of poles besides
the other growth.
Il want to know il there is any way to get
damage. II so please instruct the game
warden TO go over the land with me and esti-
mate the damage"
The fish and game commissioners have
informed the writer OF the letter that the
present law makes no provision for dam
age OF any kind done by moose, only for
compensation in the case of damage done
to growing crops by deer.
