Miss Jones said. she had always been
met with the question why she herself,
preaching independence for women. was
dependent upon her family for support (?
This Is not the first time. however.
that Miss Joney has quit society for
business. A few years ago, after she
had been presented to society at a big
reception and tea given by her mother
at the family home l16 West Seventy
second street, Miss Jones renounced
pink teas and balls, saying that social
activities bored her. She took up her
residence at the Long Island family es-
tate near Cold Spring Harbor. and for
an entire season she remained there
with the family servants and estab-
lished a successful chicken farm. This
she abandoned year later to take up
suffrage work on Long Island.
Miss Jones said she expected to be
active in the suffrage campaign through
out the State this summer.
Mrs. Oliver Livingston Jones. was one
OF the first members of New York So

the strong opposition voiced by certain
society woyp-H to the suffrage cause.
She still maintains this attitude toward

Single Tree Yields Lumber
To Build Entire House

The Government has received S99 40
for a single sugar pine tree cut In the
Stanislaus National Forest. in Califor-
MIA. and which yielded more than
enough actual lumber to build a good
sized suburban frame house The tree
scaled 1888 board feet. and was valued
at $525 a thousand feet
Not many trees contain enough lum-
ber to build a two-foot board walk
nearly two miles long. and this is be-
lieved to be the first case on record in
which a single tree felled in a national |
forest was valued at almost SlOO on the
stump, although national forest timber
is frequently sold at considerable higher
rates.
