Robbing the Squirrels.

The tree seeds collected by the
Forest Service for planting purposes
are obtained largely by theft-that
is to say, by robbing the boards of
the squirrels Pine squirrels gather
and store enormous quantities of pine
cones, and so likewise do chipmunks
and mice; but the greatest collectors
of all the small squirrels, and it Is
not uncommon to find in a single one
of their caches from eight to twelve
bushels of cones.
Such caches are commonly found
beneath deCayed logs, under bushes
and felled treetops, and benath the
overhanging banks of streams-often
carefully covered with leaves and
mold, making it difficult to locate
them; though the squirrels we'll
beaten trails serve in many instances
as a guide to the seed-collector. The
rodents are very industrious and lay
by stores out of all proportion to
their needs.
Methods have recently been adopt
ed for handling the cones and sep
arating out the seed by machinery,
much labor being thus saved. Cone
shakers of several patterns have been
devised, some of which are operated
by hand and others by gasoline en-
gines. A number of cone-drying
houses have been built in the various
national forests, where during four
weeks of last winter a total of thirty
eight hundred and ninety-four
pounds of clean seed was produced.
This made necessary the handling of
one thousand bushels of cones a
week, including the process of drying
and opening, shaking out the seed,
removing the wings" putting the
seed through a tanning mill and
weighing and sacking it for ship
ment.

WOODROW WILSON
FOR GOOD ROADS.

AutomobiIists Are JubiIant at His
Election as President; Expect Him
to Extend His Help.
The election Of woodrow Wilson to
the presidency Of the United States
carries with it encouragement to the
advocates Of federal aid in highway
Improvement It insures an admins
tration friendly to the efforts OF the
American Automobile association aud
other bodies who are cooperating with
it in the work to reestablish the pol
icy of good road building as one of
the fixed and definite policies OF the
national government.
President-eIect Wilson in many pub
lie addresses has voiced his belief IL
the wisdom OF national improvement OF
means OF communication, and parucu-
larIy OF roads, to which he specifically
referred in his address at the AmerI-
can Road congress at Atlantic city, on
that occasion, saying among other
things
"A nation is bound together by its
means of communication, and its
means of communication create its
I'VE must more and more engage
the government in providing the gen
eral facilities OF the common life.
There is no. breach in that of any of
our older understandings of the func-
tiOns of government. We have never
doubted InaL the government mad the
right to supply these facilities which
private endeavOr has never been eX-
pected to supply Therefore we are
not upon a new ground Of theory; we
are merely upon a new ground OF
tactics.
The question OF highways is one Of
the few great instrumentalities of our
public and our communal life with
which the government is Of necessity
connected L see that we must do what
we have been backward in doing as
compared with other nations.
4 tell YOU frankly my interest in
good roads is not merely an interest
in the pleasure of riding in autOmO-
biles. 1t is not merely an interest in
the much more important matter of
affOrding farmers Of this country and
residents in villages means Of ready
access to such neighbOring markets as
they need for economic benefit, but it
is also the interest in weaving as com
plicated and elaborate a net Of neigh
bOrhOOd and state and national Opin-
ion together al it is possible to weave
1t is OF the most fundamental import
ance that the United States should
think in big pieces, should think to-
gether, should think ultimately as a
whole. and L feel in my enthusiasm
for good roads something Of the old
opposition that there always has been
in me to any kind Of sectional feeling
