wllll ASSIST FOREST OWNERS.
State Forestry Departement to Send
Out Expert.

The Vermont Forestry department
plans to cooperate with the private
forest owners to a greater extent than
hitherto AS in previous years an ex-
pert will, upon request, supervise the
marking on private lots of all trees
which should be cut Owners are ex-
pected to furnish one or two men, ac
cording to the size of the tract to be
marked, and to bear the expenses of
the forester while he is doing the
work. He will keep track of the num-
Der of trees marked and at the conclu-
sion of the work will be able to inform
the owner of the total number to be
cut This information will be of con-
siderable assistance to owners in en-
abling them to dispose OF the material
before cutting.
In young forests the aim of the for
ester will be to increase the rate of
growth of the most valuable trees;
while in old stands the, principle OBJ
ject will be to secure a second crop of
the best and most rapid growing vari-
cites.
A study recently made by the for
estry department on timber tract in
northern Vermont showed that the old
growth spruce require an average of
10 years to increase one inch in diane
ter; the fir only seven and one half
years While fir is always considered
inferior to spruce it sells for about
the same price. It's rapid growth
makes it a profitable tree to raise if it
is cut before it begins to deteriorate
The fir is shorter lived than spruce or
hemlock.

Tiers parlor, while a taller chair. with

ing to destroy several of Nutley's best
known bits of scenic beauty.
1t was decided to form club and
to file formal protest with the town
commissioners and, if necessary, to
take the matter to the Essex county

even talked vigorously of recalling the

NEXT FEW DAYS
STEAMER COMING TO FILL OUT
WITH COTTON SHOULD BE IN
PORT BY SATURDAY OR SUM-
DAY-To WORK RAPIDLY.

Within the next day or two the
steamship August Belmont should be
in port. to fill out with large con-
signment of cotton for Havre. as well
as number of other items. The
steamer was looked for during the
past few days, but yesterday It was
stated that her arrival is now expected
on Sunday, early enough to go to work
Monday.
With the arrival of the Spanish
steamer Wilma yesterday, and the ar
rival of the August Belmont within the
next few days, cotton work should pick
UP rapidly during the next week.
Several thousand bales OF cotton are
now slowed in the Tarragona ware
house for the Spanish steamer Wilma,
which will go to Liverpool, and about
twice as many are in the Commandan-
cia warehouse for the Belmont, all of
which are to go to Havre.
The Wilma will likely work cotton
today. as she was berthed in the usual
'Liverpoof' berth Immediately upon
arrival yesterday.

GREAT HISTORY
OF THE WORLD
OFFERED TO THE READERS OF
THIS PAPER ~ SEVENTY GEN.
TURIEs IN FIVE BEAUTIFUL
VOLUMES.

The name of Josephus Nelson Larned
carries weight wherever English is
spoken. He is known as one of the
greatest historians of his time. His
genius for grasping essentials and for
picking up the right threads and
weaving them into fabric of clearly
marked design has never been sur
passed. It Ia this feature that renders
his work unique. The reader under
stands the trend OF events as never
before, and It has been said by compe-
tent judges that an acquaintance with
Larned's writings is equivalent to a
liberal education. The readers of The
Journal have an opportunity that will
probably never present itself again to
acquire Larned's wonderful History OF
the World at nominal cost-the ex-
pense involved in the actual distribu
ton. No profit Isl sought, the coupons
being the main consideration. The
latter are printed daily in The Journal
