VALUE OF VIRGINIA TIMBER.

Washington in Westmoreland county Harry Rob.
dollars less than $1,000 for the trunk alone
while the returns from the entire tree includ
ing the branches. will net the farmer about
$500 The tree was purchased by New York
piano manufacturers and because OF its very
fine grain will be used in the making of high
grade instruments. OF course the fact that the
tree was grown upon the Washington estate
and was possibly planted by "the father of his
country had something to do with the price
obtained, and no doubt the piano manufacturers
will get an extra rake-off on the instruments In
which the wood is used for this reason, but
that does make less patent the fact-in
fact it only serves to accentuate it--that vir-
their standing timber, and the State depart
ment of agriculture is just at this time trying
tc impress 1t upon them.
1t Is the custom we are told, for timber
spectators to go about over the State buying up
the hardwood from the farmers at song
The latter whose sole idea is to get his land
cleared for planting. and ignorant OF the value
OF the hickory other valued standing timber
h., may have on 1t, takes almost any price the
speculatpr offers 1t with this knowledge
o. the situation that the State department of
agriculture and the United States forestry service
nearly two years ago decided to cooperate In
a complete investigation Of the woods of vir-
ginia. This investigator covered the period OF
year: conducted by experts from the national
forest service, and the results OF 1t are embodied
n booklet which the commissioner now has
ready for free distribution to those who wish
them. The booklet Is liberal education in
itself the subject and will give the land
owner all the information he needs as to the
uses aud value of his timber as we'll as where
and how to ship 1t II he desires to cut out
the speculative mddleman and reap the benefit
himself. Red and white cedar, oak, hickory,
walnut and other hardwood abound in the vir-
ginia farm forests and there is no reason why
the farmer who owns timbered land should not
get what is coming to him when he desires to
clear 1t for planting.

The bugaboo of protective tariff for the how
ering of Infant industries" seems to have been
rather effectually dispelled by the report of the
bureau OF foreign and domestic commerce, which
has furnished figures at the request of Chair
man Underwood. showing how manufacturers
in this country are able to pay double the wages
paid in Great Britain and yet turn out goods at
less cost
Seventeen industries common to the two coun-
tries were included in the comparison. which
shows that in England two and a half time the
number OF employees and one-sxth more power
are required than In this county to turn out
products OF equal value. 1t means that II a
British and American workman we're employed
side by side on piece work under the condi-
tons which confront these respective work
men that the latter would turn out more than
double the work of the former. Why should
American manufacturers affect to "tremble In
their boots" at the prospect of tariff revision?

cANTELouPEs AT CHRISTMAS.

The industrial department Of the Seaboard
Air Line is introducing in the sand hill section
of North Carolina seeds of the winter canteloupe
or Cassaba melon with which planters will ex-
pertinent The planting is done in July, the
harvesting takes place in late September or in
October Just before the melon is ripe and the
fruit is then stored in dark cellars where it
will keep. 1t is claimed. until Christmas. Just
a few hours before 1t is eaten the melon is
placed in the sun, when 1t becomes yellow The
flavor, which Is said to be delicious, partakes
of the ordinary canteloupe and the pineapple.
II Is said that experimental crops of this new
melon grown in Texas, have been eaten as late
as February.
We are still of the opinion, however, that the
new French hybrid canteoupe perfected by our
good friend Charles E. Gitchell, OF Louisa, after
years of experiment, which has already demon
strated not only its flavor but wonderful keep
ing qualities is the thing for the Virginia
growers to take up and push. It's virtues have
been proven; 1t has been bred to the soil and
climate of Virginia and the advantages over
something new and untried are obvious In the
cultivation of the virginia Beauty there is an
opportunity for Virginia growers 10 make money
and at the same time make the State as IA
nous for canteloupes as the Rocky Fords made
Colorado.

Fishermen say 1t Is known habit Of the
hnny tribe to run In schools more closely in
cold weather. When the weather Ia mild they
scatter. and 1t is more dificult to get them
into nets. Some of the fishermen are inclined
to believe that the battleshp target practice of

The summer fishing season is juEt opening,
