DIRECT SEEDING
Gives Good Results in Young Trees in
Western California.

Pine seed sown directly in the spots
where the trees are to grow is yielding
good results in young trees on the Ia
hoe national forest in western Califor-
MIA.
This il in marked contrast to the u.s.
ual results in such cases. because squir-
rels, mice, and birds will eat the seeds
where they are planted without protec-
ton, and even when these enemies al
low the seed to terminate, the drying
out OF the soil in drouth periods is usual
ly too much for the tiny seedlings dur
ing their first season.
Because OF these yicissitudes foresters
usually find it advantageous TO grow the
seedlings in nursery beds, where seeds
and plants can be protected by wire
screens and shade frames, and where
water can be applied where needed,
Usually, too. the seedlings are trans
planted once or twice before they are
set out in their final situation, the trans
planting process serving TO develop
stocky plants with compact sturdy roots
While the nursery bed and transplant
process involves more work, it is said
to be generally cheaper in proportion
to results accomplished, particularly
when the cost of seed is taken into con.
The California experiment, which in
dicates the possibility of direct seeding
of certain species in some localities, was
conducted on an area of % acres, sown
in the fall OF 1910 to Jeffrey pine. A
large number OF seedlings have become
thoroughly established and have made
thrifty growth. The plantation is at an
altitude of 6,000 feet, where there is
more moisture than at lower elevations.
When the seeds were planted they
were coated with red lead to discourage
mice and other rodents, but so far as
the forest officers could find out the
lead coating had no such effect not
enough of the Seed was eaten, however,
to destroy the value of the planting.

Alaska Coal Development Retarded.
 The development of the coal re- sources Of Alaska. according to a Statement in report on the mineral resources of the United States is- sued by the United States Geological Survey, has been held back on ac- count of the lack of legislation per mitting the exploitation of the known extensive and valuable fields. In 1912 the commercial product of coal in Alaska amounted to only 355 tons, In addition 300 tons were mined un- der the direction of the Bureau of Mines for testing by the United States Navy. The imports of coal into Ala aska amount to about 100000 tons an nuaIly, but most of the transportation and manufacturing industries of the
 territory now depend on California oil for their fuel.
