THE GROWING OF TREES.

The constantly decreasing supply Of
timber and the deforestation Of dis
tricts which have hitherto been sup
plying the country with lumber d.
rects attention to tree planting as a
means Of profit. and experiments
which have been made IN the last two
or three years have been productive
Of interesting and profitable facts. In
the section around Tulsa more than
half a million speciosa catalpa and
black locust trees have been set out.
II is asserted by William Lynch and
John Palmer, who are perhaps tho
largest tree planters in the state. that
each OF these trees will be worth con-
siderably more than s1.bO each within
ten or fifteen years. and that the care
Of them is practically but an incident
in the days work on the farm. In
addition to the trees already in the

stock within the next eighteen months
The question of tie supply for the
railroads is one Of the worries OF the

wherever metal ties have been used
the wear and tear on the rails hai
been more than doubled. thereby
adding largely TO the fixed charges

KANSAS CITY HIT BY FLOOD
Record Downpour Drives More Than
Three Thousand into Streets.
Three Are Killed.

Kansas City, Mo, Sept. S.-As a
result Sunday night and yesterday
of the greatest rain storm that was
ever experienced here, more than
1900 homes have been flooded and
hundreds of persons driven into the
streets.
Despite the fact that the waters
are receding there is much danger
from collapsing buildings. The loss
is estimated at S1,5O0,00 Tele
phone service throughout the city is
demoralized and street car service
suspended in many sections
The flood already has cost three
lives. Two men were killed when
they came in contact with a broken
trolly wire and a woman was drowned
when the water engulfed her
home.
Overlooking streams flooded the
Country club district, the south side
the east and west bottoms Sheffield
and other sections. The greatest dam
age was done in the southwestern
part OF the city and in ROsedale,
Kan, suburb, where the water
stood twenty-three feet deep in plac
es
Turkey creek, a drainage stream
always tTeacherOus, was a harmless
thread Of murky water when the men
and women who live in the valley
southwest of the city went TO bed on
Sunday night. Then came rain which
continued ten hours and fifty minutes
and was ga inches
Turkey creek began TO rise. silent
ly at first. and then with a roar, until
il was a mile wide. The water crept
mp the streets Of ROsedale and into
homes and the city hall.
