HARVESTING TREE SEED .
NEW FEDERAL INDUSTRY
Forest Service Inaugurates
Unique Campaign for Arti-
fetal Growth.

Harvesting tree seed is a new industry
on which the Department of Agriculture
has just received an unusual report
through the forest service. 1t is the be-
ginning of a big campaign in which all
the science and administrative ability OF
the district foresters are called into play
and one in which the foresters are max
ing the squirrels help them in the work
1t is stated by Henry Farquhar of the
forest service. that there are 1000, 0GU
acres of land in the United States, at
present unproductive, that need reforest-
ing About half of this land will be nat
urally reforested in the course of time,
but there are 100000 acres that will
have to be reforested artifc;ally, either
by planting the seed or by raising trees
in the forest nurseries and transplant
ing them.
1t is to meet this heavy demand for
seed that the service has had to go into
the seed harvesting business, and it is a
business that is open ns UP new prob
lens and possibilities the longer il is fol-
lowed.
The service last year planted some
thing over - UO0 acres and set out trees
OH 1900 acres more. But even at the

GRADUATES WITH SON.
Indiana Father Completes Inter:

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, June i2.-For
the first time in the history of Indiana
University, and it is believed for the first
time in any college, a father, Willis
Hickam OF Spencer. Ind, will graduate

Law School as his son. Hubert Hickam
The father, prominent lawyer, was
a student in the institution in 1877 when
II disbanded. The school was not reor-
ganized for eleven years, and in the
meantime the elder Hickman had finished
his studies in private office and be
come prominent in Indiana legal circles
Recently he petitioned the board of
trustees of the university 10 allow him
10 complete his course. The request
was readily granted and Mr.. Hickam
re-entered the university. in time to re-
ceive his diploma Al the same time as his
son.

SQUIRRELS Aid Collectors.

The use that was made OF the squirrels
was in collecting the cones. These little
animals, which are great enemies of reg
ular tree planting, are the most. efficient
collectors of pine cones They know
which trees bear the best crops and how
to store them so they will keep.
The foresters therefore. relied largely
on the squirrels to cut off the cones and
collect them from the ground where TREY
We're stored in caches whence the
foresters collected them and hauled them
to the seed warehouses.
The work in the Kaniksu forest re-
suited in the collecting of 10000 sacks
of cones at a total cost OF little over 55
cents bushel. 1t Is expected. in the
light of experience. that next year the

Collect Seed From Forest.

The work laid out. last Year required
1H,oOO pounds of seed. but it has been
found much cheaper to collect the. seed
from the forest than to buy them of
seedsmen. The cost is just about half
and the quality is better.
Most of the seed collected is pine and
of course only one species is wanted In
any one locality. There is another point
that most outsiders do not understand.
and that is that a pine cone crop takes
two years to develop on the trees and
even then there is not a good crop every
year and no certainty about the periods
between good crops. Some of the pines
have a good crop at periods of from
three to ten years.
The campaign last year for pine. cone
collecting centered in the kaniksu ma
tonal forest of Idaho. The men were
divided into camps that had to be housed
and fed. More men were neeaed than
the country afforded. and drafts We're
made on the lumber camps. and the col
lectors finally represented ranchers, col
lege students. .hoboes. lumber jacks. and
almost AL other classes of humanity.
