Roadside Cleaning

To the Township Committee
Frequent complaints come from forest
frewardens of the condition of the road
sides in the wooded sections OF the State.
IL this connection it is desired to call
your attention to the laws copied below,
feeling that, if your township does not
enjoy such protection, you will be inter-
ested in them. The Forest Commission
assumes 40 authority in the matter and
any action must originate in the town.
ship. This letter is prompted solely by
the Commissions desire to cooperate
with the local governments in every way
in the control OF forest fires both by ad-
vice and assistance.
An uncared for roadside is a fire-trap
and brush cut and allowed to dry along
the edge of a road is more dangerous
than if permitted to remain growing and
green. Aside from its value in curtailing
the number of fires started, a properly or
even reasonably we'll cared for roadside
affords in many instances the only secure
line OF attack i'll fighting an advancing
fire. Attention given to this matter will
insure a decrease i'll a townships fire
fighting expenses and an increase in its
woodland values exactly in proportion to
the thoroughness of the work done.

The August Shooting Stars

From August 10th to August 18th the
earth passes through the densest part of
the stream OF meteoric particles known as
the Perseid swarm. On any one of these
four nights the observer, by facing the
northeast and watching for a few min
utes, may see blaish, very swiftly NOV
lng shooting stars dart outward in all d.
rections from the radiant point in the con-
steIlation Perseus, move a greater or less
distance across the sky, and finally disap-
pear, usually leaving a phosphorescent
trail behind them. The opportunity for
witnessing the display is unusually favor
able this year because tie new moon &C.
ours Oh August 18th, and therefore
throughout all of the four nights the sky
will be dark. As the hours of the night
go Oh, the radiant rises higher and high
er in the sky, the most favorable hours
of all for observation being between l
O'Clock and sunrise, though occasional
stars may be seen at all hours of the
night.
These shooting stars are caused by the
collision of the earth with an immense
swarm of little particles which are follow
ing the same path about the sun as the
third comet OF 1862, and are very prob
ably the remains OF this comet, which
has been torn apart and stretched out
along it's path by the tidal action Of the
sun. AS each dark and cold little par
ticle OF the swarm ploughs through the
air of our swiftly moving earth it is burnt
up by the friction and is seen by us as a
shooting star.

Why Brown Sugar Disappeared
