COURTEOUS OFFICERS.

Apparently there has been consider
able trouble in the army due to harsh
treatment of the enlisted men by off
GERS. Although the complaints have
not obtained publicity, they probably
have been more numerous and insist
eut than usual, inasmuch az General
Wood. chief Of staff, has taken cogniz-
ance of them and has warned officers
to maintain discipline by kindlier
methods.
General Wood indicates that the
young officers arc moro to blame than
their elders. He says that they have
not been sufficiently imbued with the
tremendous Importance Of that portion
of their duties which concerns their re-
lations with enlisted men, and that as
result of iue1pcrience they often feel
it necessary 10 adopt toward the men
tone of voice or manner different
from that which thoy usually employ.
General Wood also condemns the too
frequent use of public rebuke, pointing
out that as a general rule better results
can he obtained through private talk.
In most of the armies of tho world
the officers forget the respect owing
by man to man In their common hu-
manity all men are equal, and there is
a certain dignity attaching to manhood
which should be respected even under
despotic military rule. 1T is moro cs-
sential to display this consideration IN
the United States army than in foreign
armies. Time was when aboard ship,
even in the merchant service, 1T was
permissible to flog the sailors. This
abhorrent practice has disappeared
from all the Davies of the world, show
ing that the methods that grew out of
ancient tyrapnies are being abandoned,
even where the common people are still
looked upon by the governments as
serGs
In the United States tyrannical
methods even in our army and navy,
where despotic system still is main
tained, and abuse of the men cannot ex-
ist for long The men are too intelligent,
too independent, and too thoroughly
saturated with the democratic spirit to
allow themselves to become slaves. In
our army the officers can accomplish
more by an appeal to patriotism and
good will than by harshness.
The order of General Wood probably
is directed against only small mum.
her of officers, as instances of crying
abuses in this country have been few.

Nut-bearing Trees in Ogden.

An editorial, Hardwoods Of Utah. y
Tribune, was directed to the attention
Of an Ogden man, who is an authority
On arboreal matters, and, in response
10 our questions as to the hardwood and
nut-bearing trees that mi ght be grown
in this state, he has written the follow
ing:
"EThe editorial carried back 10 boy
hood days those who, IN the middle and
eastern states, either as residents or
visitors, enjoyed the keen pleasure of
nutting parties following the first sharp
frosts. The exhilarating exercise Of
those jaunts in the crisp autumn air
was the more enjoyable in anticipation
OFT the subsequent enjoyment Of the
fruits OF the trip in cracking the wal
nuts, chestnuts, hickory nuts, hazel
nuts or becchnuts around the winter
hearthstone. The old chestnut tree on
the hill, like the swimmin hole, is one
of the landmarks Of boyhood
The practical suggestion Of the edi-
TOR If also timely in view of the fact
that. throughout the intermountain and
Pacific region, hardwood lumber is
scarce. This is so TO such an extent
that lumber boats carry Douglas fir to
Japan and return laden with Japanese
oak, and the sawmills at Wilmington.
Cal. between San Pedro and Long
Beach. use no other material than Jap.
ancse oak. For many years the Santa
Fe railroad used great quantities Of
Japanese oak ties.
"Most Of the nut-bearing trees have
characteristic requirements which must
be regarded. For instance, it is said
that the chestnut tree will not grow on
limestone soils. Most of the soil around
Ogden is sandy loam in which there
is possibly little or no limestone disin-
tegrate. and yet we have not learned OF
successful experiment in growing
chestnut trees in Utah,
"Charles T., Bennett gave a thorough
trial several years ago to the growing
Of hickory and beech trees on his farm

Ogden. He tried both plentiful and

the trees under The shade Of larger
trees. The latter persisted longer than

Freight RATE
HEARINGS STOP
No More Testimony Will
Be Taken By Commits
sion Until April q.

Washington, April 8.-Hearings on
the lake and rail end of the great
eastern advance rate cases were post
poned today by the interstate com
merce commission. They will not be
resumed until the main question at
issue-do railroads get an adequate
return on their investments-is decid-
ed.
Oral arguments on this point have
been set for April 81, when the full
membership of the commission will
hear pleas for and against the pro-
posed increase in rates.
If the commission decides that the
railroads are not receiving an ade-
quate return on their investments
then the second point will be taken
up. This will be how great an in
crease are the railroads entitled to
receive. While the commission may
not allow the per cent increase ask
ed by the railroads. lower rate in
crease may be granted.
Before the hearing closed today
testimony unfavorable to lake carri-
ers was given by julius H: Barnes
of Duluth, Miss, grain exporter.

MAKING A FACE
ON A YOUNG MAN

Baltimore, Md, Feb. with a
part Of his forearm substituting for
new lips, Ross Allen, young can
adian at a hospital here, seems to
be in favorable way to have prac-
tically the whole of his face newly
shaped. Allen entered the hospital
about two months ago with his race
disfigured from an accident in saw
mill FIVE years ago. His nose and
lips were missing. A section Of flesh
shaped to the form of lower lip was
cut on his forearm early in November
and grating juncture made with the
Lip base. The arm was bound about
the head until the grating was COM
plete. This consumed about two
weeks. When sufficient adherence
having taken place, the lip section
was severed from the arm and the
lip shaped.
The same procedure was followed
in the upper lip treatment section
Of the arm flesh being grated across
the upper gum and the arm strapped
to Aliens head and shoulders until
this section, too. had taken hold.
When Allen accumulates sufficient
strength for another operation. the
surgeons will try to build him a new
nose. 1t IL planned to cut away q
piece Of healthy cartilage from one Of
