poor for the production of agricultural
crops. There is increasing danger that
the true forest land of the state will
be completely ruined in time by over

lands will produce annually from 90 to

BY the unfortunate loss of one of its
two senators through failure to keep step
with some sections of the state in popu-
lation, Orange county is likely to develop
"mountain rule" in the selection of the
single senator, as it has been the custom
for each side of the county TO send a
man to the upper branch of the legisla
ture. 1t is doubly unfortunate. because
Orange county fell outside the two-sena-
tor regime by merely fourteen votes, as
the Randolph Herald points out. But
already the county talk is getting inter
esting about this single senatorship. The
aforementioned contemporary is the
first, we believe, to express a preference;
and it has come out for Hale X. Darling
OF Chelsea, who is one of the best known
men in the county, as well as the state.
Others may have been mentioned for the
position, but we do not recall that there
has been any; which makes his possible
election seem as easy as The Herald
and News asserts it is likely to be. In
the event of Mr.. Darlings election, the
county may be assured of having a man
pf much mental capacity to represent it.

While gathering of two hundred
farmers is not large for state which
has so many agricultural operations as
Vermont has, that number is sufficiently
large to WELD quite a powerful influence
as the farmers return to their homes
from the Farmers week" meetings just
held in Burlington. That they ought to
do good, each in his particular section
of the state, one would be led TO expect,
judging by the excellence of the ideas dis
seminated by the various speakers at the

neyed to Burlington went with serious

get per cent. compound interest on his

hand, it is possible to raise a plantation
up to 10 years old for something like
$40 per acre, so that the farmer who
plants now is sure of good results, if he
protects from fire. Forest planting is he
ing adopted on large scale in Vermont.
Two hundred and thirty plantations have
been made by farmers and lumbCrmen in
the past three years, and already over
100000 trees have been ordered for tn.
spring of 1912.
The thinning of young growth is fully
as important as planting. The forester's
problem is often to make one tree grow
where two grew before, instead of two
where one grew before. In other words,
trees as they come up naturally are
often too crowded and need TO have more
opportunity for light moisture and TIE
mineral elements of the soil.
Big lumber companies like the Inter-
national Paper Co. are beginning to real
ize that they can secure a second growth
Of valuable trees without going to the
expense of planting. if they cut their
lumber with regard to future growth
The leaving of the necessary number Of
seed trees is very important in all hum
bering operations, and the forestry de-
partment is giving great deal of advice
along this line to practical operators.

Trees as a Vermont ctop.
At the farmers week in connection
with the university OF Vermont, State
Forester A. +. Halves spoke on Forest
Trees as Vermont Crop" and his ideas
were as follows:
The offer of assistance which the state
forestry department makes to all wood
land owners in the state is being accept
ed on an encouraging scale. The forest
eT has more and more demands for advice
regarding the management of woodlands
and for marking the trees that should be
cut in lumber operations. Advice Of this
kind benefits the farmer in that he can
grow crop of trees quicker than under
ordinary conditions and that he can grow
greater crop of timber in the same
length OF time, and by getting in tonch
with the market conditions of the state,
can generally secure better prices. Meas
urements made in various natural stands
of white pine show that from $4,000 to
10000 board feet per acre may be ex-
pected in 40 years. At present stumpdge
prices at from 81 10 $40 per NJ, this
means net value of from Sl75 to $500
per acre, that is, one acre OF such forest
cut off each year would send a boy to
college, one acre would buy one or tive
horses, FIVE or six acres of such pine
would build a barn, etc, but plantation

AN EXPERT OPINION ON TUBERCU-
LOSIS INFECTION.

When the Vermont sanatorium for tu.
berculosis patients was first projected
and locations were being sought, there
was some opposition in various sections
because of the belief that the institution
would be inimical to the public health
pf that section, the opposition being
based on the assumption that tubercu-
Iosis is communicable. Bearing on that
Idea and also contributing considerably
10 the general fund of information con-
eerning the disease is the following ex-
tract from journal of the American
Medical Association:
Among the public the idea is occa-
sionally fund that cities or communities
frequented by tuberculous persons pre-
sent conditions favorable for the infee-
tion of the well. While it was difficult
to secure conclusive evidence to prove
the error of this assumption referred to-
yet study of the question would indi.
cate that casual contact and house infec-
ton were of relatively slight Importance,
and that if the presence of a large num-
important in spreading tuberculosis,
there should be some correlation between
the death-rate of imported and acquired
cases in the various communities. None
of the states except Arizona Classics
separately the deaths from imported
cases and those from locally acquired
tuberculosis It is found that in Denver,
which also makes this distinction in
classifying these deaths, the death-rate
from locally acquired tuberculosis, while
It luctuates somewhat, is low and Is
certainly not increasing. California also
rlassifies these deaths according to length
of residence and while the line cannot
be distinctly drawn between imported
and locally acquired cases, yet the con
rlusion is that the death-rate from tu
berculosis is no higher in southern Cali
fornia, which receives most OF the i'm
ported cases, than it is in the central
and northern portions Of the state. The

At the meeting of the Vermont State
Forestry association in Burlington this

forestry school advocated state forest
for every county OF Vermont, and he
spoke on the value of the state Forest
to the farmers. A summary Of his adj
dress is here given:
The state of Vermont has recently
obtained by purchase and by gift four
tracts of land to be devoted to state

association urges that this policy be
extended and land acquired for state
forests in every county. Timber should

T0DO WE'LL
AGAINST DICKINSON
Catholic u. Eleven in Great
Shape for Big Contest
Tomorrow.

Tomorrow Catholic uniyersity's foot
ball team will face its hardest and heavi-
est opponents of the season. The local
eleven has been coming fast during the
last week and Coaches McDevitt and
Greer feel sure their charges Will be able
to make a creditable showing.
During the week the coaches have sent
the men through the sttffest workouts OF
the year and the team has been speeded
up to its top notch. The team is very
likely to put up great fight, and a
similar battle to that which took place
during the Villanova game will probably
result The team has several new plays
and formations which are expected to
work well during the fray. Yesterday the
team was sent through its final scrin-
mage and at no time thus far this season
has it shown such life and fight. The
new plays were tried out and worked
well. On one occasion Butler went
through the scrubs for touchdown after
a twenty-yard run. The whole backfield
looked well.
The absence of Capt. Blewett is likely
to be greatly felt. as he possesses great
ability in backing up the line.
Manager Brenneman, coaches and squad
Will arrive In town at $40 tonight from
Dickinson. Dclzinson's squad at present
is in its best physical condition and will
present its strongest lineup, and a good
game is on tap.
The predictions are that II the local
boys succeed in stopping Dunn, the cap
tain and dashing right halfback on Dick
inson's eleven, they have chance to win.
Dunn is without doubt one OF the best
halfbacks in the game today.
1t is expected that the game will be
one of the best played In town this sea

poets a large crowd out. The time of

Special Dispatch to The St,r

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November S.-Specula-
tion is rife in local base ball circles as
to who will succeed Harry Wolverton as
the manager of the Highlanders.
Frank Farrell insists he has Mt yet
made selection. Though he did not say
so the fact that he has let Wolverton
go would indicate that he had some one
in mind. 1t may be Roger Bresnahan and
it may be Frank Chance, and again it
may be Mike Donlin. All of these are
National League men, but it is believed
that at least one of them could be weaned
away from the old league if a satisfac-
tory financial settlement could be made
with the magnates
! 1t was rumored several days ago that
Roger Bresnahan was trying to get out
of the National League, so as to go over
to the American, but with Pittsburgh and
,, Chicago claiming him there seems little
chance there. There would be more
chance of Frank Chance getting away than
Bresnahan. AS to Donlin, 1t Is believed
Pittsburgh would give him up for a rea-
sonable amount of money. Everybody in
! base ball would like to see Mike get
job as manager, and it is believed that
majority of the magnates would go in
to help him. Moreover. he would be a
corking good man for Farrell.

| In the American League, President Ban
| Johnson has considerable to say about
who shall manage the several teams.
| That league is run as such close cor
/ poration that everything must be in har-
mony. For that reason Johnson insists
on the managers being satisfactory to
| the entire organization.
| While Mr.. Farrell would not admit that
| he had selected a manager to succeed
Wolverton. he admitted that he had sew
| eral lines out and would look over the
field very carefully before coming to a
| decision
| Wolverton's administration was a very
unfortunate one. He came heralded as a
man of strict discipline and one who kept
| his club full of ginger. Great success was
| predicted for him. Instead of success he
met with utter failure. His club dropped
| into last place and finished the season
| there. In justice to him it should be said
however, that no manager was ever beset
with more hard luck. Several of his best
! players were victims of accidents and
| were out Of the game at the same time
/ Not once during the season did he have
| his entire regular team in the field.
