BIHGHT KI1aD CHESTNUT CAN
 BE USED.

Washington. June 2A-The tnroads of the chestnut Dark disease, or chest ns1A blight, on the chestnut trees of New England and the Middle Atfau- tto States is resulting in the death of a great deal of chestnut timber. Off, cials of tho Us & Department of Ag- Bfculture recommend, to prevent the spread of the disease, that shipments of cI1estuI1tst11nbex should include only material from which the bark has been removed and from which the dis eased spots have been cut out.
 In the region affected there is a good market for all chestnut products except cordwood. The demand for poles and ties absOrbs all that are of- &ered, and lumber finds ready sale in local markets. Cordwood, however, is often a. drug except within shipping distance of tanning extract plants. brass foundrfes lime kIlns, brick yards, and charcoal plants
 The question has arisen as to wheth- CT the disease killed timber is less valuable than that from green trees. Strength tests made by the Forest Service indicate thatzsound wood from chestnut killed by the bark disease is as strong as that from green timber.
 The bark disease kills the tree by g1rdkfng the trunk. and does not cause unsou1rd or decayed wood which is the result of attack by fungi or in secfs. Until two years after the death of tho tree the wood generally remains sound, though at the end of that time insects have commenced working in the eapwood. Three years after death the sapwood is honey-combed with insect burrows; in four years it has decayed, and begins to dfy and peel off in the fifth year. After this the heartwood. checks badly. To avoid loss, therefore, all timber should be used within two years after being killed
 At g. recent meeting in Trenton, N. J., fcresterS were present from most of the States in which the chestnut bark disease is prevalent. Connecti- cut, New Jersey. New York. Pennsy1- vania, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, and the Forest Service and the Bureau of Plant Industry were represented. Representatives of the States approved the investigations un- dertaken by the Forest Service, and recommended that the individual States give particular attention to the development of local markets for stands of blight killed chestnut Own- CTS of such timber should apply to the State F'oresters or to the Forest Ser vice foF further information upon~the ss s ~sR cts tnl1ts

sinated the last being Alexander II, in
1881. Six attempts were made on the

one occasion he only escaped through the
barrel of the assassln's pistol bursting,
while in 1866, when the dinner hall of the
winter palace was wrecked by an ex-
plosion from the cellars, the Emperor
owed his life to the fact that the COM
pany did not sit down to dinner at the
usual hour, and so the explosion was in

blown to pieces with nitroglycerine while
driving through st. Petersburg on March
IS, 1881.
Three attempts have been made on the
life of the present Car, the last being
in 1905, when celebrating what is known
as the Twelfth Day Festival. A pavilion
had been erected in front of the winter
palace, and after the Car and grand
dukes had finished prayers in this pavil-
ion, salute of guns was fired from the
fortress of ST. Peter, opposite the palace,
on the other side of the River Neva. To
