San Diego, Cal, is said to be the
first American city to take up scien-
tito forestry as a municipal enter
prise. The city owns 1000 acres
Of waste land, a heritage from the
time when 1t was a Mexican pueblo.
This tract is now set aside for grow
ing eHcalypti, and last spring 10000
seedlings were planted.
Eucalyptus Is very valuable and
takes the place of many of the more
familiar hardwoods that are becoming
SO expensive; it grows with truly trop-
ical rapidity; 1t will stand an enor-
nous amount of cutting and seems to
thrive under it, and grove once well
started apparently will last forever.
In San Diego, says the Survey, the
more optimistic taxpayers are looking
forward to time when the forest will
relieve them of all taxes and perhaps
even pay them for being citizens of
San Diego! They are not the only
people in an American city to be con-
graduated on doing good municipal
business.
July 8, 1911, the Detroit house Of
correction passed its fiftieth milestone.
During the last 80 years over $1,000
900 in profits were turned over to the
city Of Detroit to the families of pris-
oners and to the prisoners themselves.
Since 1880 the city of Detroit has an
nually received sums ranging from
$S,016.83 to $52,711.64.
The original expenditure by the city
Of 3189,S41.36 has been turned back
into the treasury Of the municipality,
the institution has paid its own way
and in the so years show fine bal
ance Of $1,254,178.15. In addition to
this showing, the prisoners since July,
1901, have been receiving financial
benefits ranging from $5,95S.14 to 3d.
670.38 annually.
In addition to amounts paid the pris-
oners, some Of which are sent by the
men to their families, provision is also
made for the families of those who
are Imprisoned on the charge Of aban-
donment. This is accomplished under
statute which provides that $3.50
week for the wife and an additional
so cents for each child under Is years
Of age be paid them out of the funds

Cy Lyle, Jr., is the spirit of his father
in ENTHUSIASTICALLY below the med
ium in stature, but stout and muscular
and having all of the essentials of men,
tai attachments, he applied for the
Naval academy, was appointed and
took his examination. His father tells
the result in the Comet:
Cy III. Lyle Jr., came home from
Annapolis Saturday. At the request
of Sen. Sanders the. Secretary of the
Navy allowed him to have second
physical examination after he has a
couple of molars inserted He was a
quarter of an inch short but the Sur
geon-General waived that fraction be-
cause he will be expected to do the
fighting when all the tall officers are
gone. The Navy requires four oppos-
ing molars on each side particularly
the inside so that the middies can eat
the required amount of brain food, a
whale three times a day, but as Cy
Jr., was one of ten out of 1868 who pass
ed the mental examination with a
grade of 3.2 and better, his average be-
ing 1913, his mastigating qualifications
are small feature as his diet will be
minnoWs.
Now, the point about it is that this
young man, full of ginger: fearless by
instinct and training; endowed with
ample brains to become a leader in his
profession; ambitious and patriotic; a
scion of real American stobk, finds it
difficult to get into the service of his
country because two or three of his
teeth may be bit awry! No wonder
that the people sometimes get load of
disgust over departmental or rather
bureaucratic red tape.
Here's hoping that young Cy will
beat 'em all out, away-teeth or no
teeth.-Chattanooga Times.
