CORK FORESTS.
Money Making Trees That Grow in the
Poorest Kind of Soil.

Money Making Trees That Grow In the
Poorest Kind of Soil.
The cork oak is kind of jack at all
trades among trees, and its service in
dicates well the kind Of new freedom
that trees may give us by their new
helpfulness il we win just give them
a chance. If the garden OF Eden story
had been written in Spain or Portugal
l think the fortunate couple would
have been placed in possession of a
cork forest If a man in either Of
these countries has a forest of good
cork trees you viii find him in Madrid,
Lisbon or Paris. His cork forest works
for him, and he stays in town.
Cork trees grow on the rockiest and
poorest land The poorer the land the
finer the quality of the cork. Every
eight or ten years the outer bark is
stripped from the trees to furnish the
ever more highly priced cork Of com
merce. BY dividing the land up into
blocks this decennial harvest win pro
duce fairly regular income
These same oak trees produce acorns,
often heavily, which are sold to some
farmer, who drives his herds of lean
hogs into the forest, where they har-
vest the acorns and turn them into
salable meat A Portuguese hog is eZ-
pected to gain two pounds a day for
ninety days when acorns are ripe
More than this, there is beneath the
oak trees some herbage fit for goats to
eat Thus the cork forest owner in Lis
bon gets income from three contrac-
tors the cork stripper, the pork raiser
and the goat raiser. And with care
the forest lasts forever. The individual
cork tree is good for i hundred years
or more, after which it is fine biz
salable tree with enough young ones
near it to take its place when it is
gone to market In Portugal cork
| tree, ready for its third stripping, is
considered worth S25. When in full
bearing an acre of these oaks will
yield from one to three tons Of cork
at a stripping, now worth about SIC
a ton to the grower. Most of this Is
profit, The pork is profit 1t is the
common rule that the. income from
the pasture pays the small cost OF
caring for the forest-J. Russell Smith

When Cruelty Isn't Cruelty.

The magistrate Of the department of
Seine-etOise, in France. once gave a
decision in a claim of cruelty to
horse which is remarkable as a legal
subtlety. The law provides that the
offense is punishable only when com
mitted in public. If the sore is covered
by the collar. he holds, the offense is
not committed in public If it is not
covered by the collar there is no cruel
ty. In either event the case must De

MCMahOn's Weekly Strike
Statement.

The developments in the strike
situation have been much of such
nature as to indicate that there is
no immediate prospect o. an adjust
ment. As a number of business
men whose interests have been
greatly injured BY results of the
strike have made a complete failure
IN their efforts to secure some con-
sessions Of the EMPLOYERS. The Of
hcers of the union have been reli-
ably informed that VIXEN one Of the
leading business men Of the city
approached several of the shop
owners, for the purpose of ind cling
them TO agree 30 a settlement, he
was plainly given to understand
that the manufacturers would re-
sent any interference in this stIug-
gle by the retail merchants. In ad
d1tlon to this some of the manu-
tacturers were very insulting and
overbearing in their attitude, thus
d1scouraging an honest effort on
the part of the business men to re
store harmonious relations between
employer and employe. The off
Gals of the union have taken %
sition that they are willing TO con-
Ter and reason out with any .egiti-
mate committee Of usiDess men or
others with view to restoring
aor nal conditions in the city. In

The hNCOMA AFFAIR.
Summons

The Anc ma affair is assum.
ing alarming proportions il
diplomatic circles. Austria
apparently refuses TO disavov
the sinking of this ship and
he wanton destruction OF
lives of 4 merican citizens and
non-Combatants.
We sincerely hope the Pres.
may be able to secure favor
able action on the note to
Austria. Our nation is peace
able in its demands. Thel e
is an honorable loop-hole for
hose responsible for this
frightful deed. We can see
no difficulty in a nation dis
avowing an atrocity like the
sinking of the Ancoma and
it's passengers. As to indem-
nifty for the lives of those who
went down We can see no
difficulty. Our country is
easy III its demands for this
attack Oh our citizens. We
are the most lenient of the
nations in dealing with those
who attack our sovereignty.
Possibly our leniency is
mistaken for weakness: but it
will behoove all to avoid a
break with America, for a
nation of one hundred twenty
five millions is nat to be tri-
fled with.
We are advocates of peace,
not at amy price. Sometimes
peace is too dear.

framed with orchids and rejecting the

were caught with orchids. American
beauty roses were on both sides of
the canopy, beneath which was a
prayer rug on which President Wilson

luncheon afterward, during which a
string orchestra played, the bride wore
her travelling dress, a black silk vel

beaver with no trimmings whatever
except one feather slightly upturned
on the left side. At her throat she
wore the presidents wedding gift, a
diamond brooch.
The skirt of her gown was of walk

waist had silken embroidery of blue,
shading from the deep tones of roya'
blue to delicate shades of pastel and
was threado with silver.
