or the twentieth century logging crews. In what
might term the traditional seats of the lumber
industry, however, winter puts a very dlner-
ent face the whole matter of getting out
the logs and transporting them to the saWm1lls
that transform them into the marketable form
known to the average consumer In Maine In
northern New York and Canada, in Michigan, In
Minnesota, Wisconsin and the Dakotas the summer
is in sense a vacation season for the lumDe1
jacks. At least it is interlude OF restricted
activity and the lumbermen, unlike some other
members of the community, welcome the passing
of the long, bright days and the advent or the Ice
King The explanation Of this state OF AFFAIRS is
Eound of course, in the fact that snow and Ice
afford the material for the ideal arteries or com
uunicaton in the lumber regions. The telled
trees may be conveyed to market more quickly
and more economically snow roads and ice
trails than by any other method known 10 the
industry. Indeed there are lumber regions Wnere
without these fautors-and their sequel the Dig
thaw" in the sEring-t would be virtually I'M
practicable to get the timber to market at an eS
pense that would justify operations.
The snow and ice, important as is their ala
are not the only influences that are now tenolEE
to make the lumbermen concentrate their actsF-
tiles in the fall and winter Of late years con-
stantly increasing number of our lumbermen mage
been brought to see the wisdom of adopting WHAT
is known as conservative lumbering-that IS, ZEN
bering which treats forest as working capFtal
whose purpose is to produce successive crops ano
which calls for work in the woods that VIII leave
the standing trees and young growth as neariy
unframed as possible. Well, the minute IMAM
becomes convert to conservative numbering he
10 certain to become an advocate OF the colo eea-
son as the proper time for carrying on ale the
operations of numbering.
To make this point clear 1t may be pointer out
that the difference between practical work under
ordinary methods of numbering and under con-
servatipe numbering is principally in the selection
of the trees TO cut in the telling OF these trees
and In the first part of their Journey from the
stump to the mil. 1t is an established fact that
the amount of harm done to forest by the cut
ring depends considerably upon the season OF the
gear when the work in the woods is carried on.

ABDUL HAMlD STILL ALIVE

Abdul Hasnid is alive! The former
sultan is IN Salonica and has not been
secretly conveyed to Constantinople.
Those are the replies to two recent
~ circulated reports which have told
of the former sultan's demise and of
his having been spirited away during
the night to the capital. The latter
report was merely founded upon the
passage of train full of munitions,
concerning which quite special precau-
lions were taken.
If you want to set yourself a diff
cult task it is in going to Salonica
and trying there to find out some de-
tails concerning the physical condi-
ton and mode of life of the deposed
sultan, who for so many years was the
political chess player who kept the
'diplomatists of Europe busy, and who
was SO skilled in the game that he US
ually saw 20 moves ahead, while the
ambassadors at Constantinople saw
but two or three.

BIG LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES

The largest amount of life lnsur-
ance held by any woman in the world
is now carried by Mrs. Charles Netch-
ter, head of Chicago department
store.
Mrs. Netcher has just taken out a
life insurance policy for 100000,
which raises her total insurance to
$1,000 600, more than that of any other
person in Chicago, it was announced.
Mrs. Netcher has followed a plat
form of her husband, who, when he
died in 1904, was insured for 100000.
After the death of her husband,
Mrs. Netcher assumed control of the
store and has conducted the business
ever since, building it up and con-
stantly increasing her holdings in real
estate as the profits from her bust
ness increased.
She soon became what is known in
insurance circles as "a good risk.

policies on her life the various COM

TOMATOES WILL BE
SHORT CROP THIS YEAR.

Tomato growers in the Rogue val
ley are complaining that the crop OF
that lucious fruit will be much short
er than was expected because OF the
fact that several varieties, heretofore
standards in the valley, are not set
ting fruit. This is especially notice
able in the Stone and Matchless,
which have been planted for main
crop in a great many instances. The
Earliana, an extremely early variety,
has set practically a full crop, but
this has a very short season.
w, L. Hays, one Of the Hays broth
ers, the tomato kings of Murphy,
was in the city Thursday, and he re-
ports that not a box will come to
the local market from them this sea-
son. First great difficulty was en-
countered In getting the plants
started, and now, while the plant It.
self has made a most satisfactory
the blossoms are not fertil-
izing, or what fruit does set drops
from the stem. Hays Brothers sold
two thousand boxes in the local mar
ket last season.
Fruit Inspector Burke says that
the wet spring and the cool nights
are responsible for the condition Of
the crop. He advocates the use Of
tomato plants from cold frames as
largely as possible in setting in the
spring, as they are harder, and do
lot suffer so much from the cold
nights when put in the field. He says
hat this failure to set fruit is a COM
non cause for complaint in seasons
when the spring is backward and the
lights cool.
