While the Pops have been beaten
four times in nine games with Brook

for Brooklyn. 1t was mainly through
batting rallies that the Tip Tops won
out. The series promises to be hotly
contested, and with the race so close
the games should all be hummers.

1914 Year of. Greatest
Risk From Forest Fires

THE season Of 1914, according to
the officials of the Forest Serv-
ice, carried greater danger from fire
to the National forests than any year
since the establishment of the for
ests. A long dry season, sustained
periods Of high temperature, recur-
ring hard and steady winds and, in
some places, unusually hot, dry
nights, rendered the forests exceed
ingly inflammable. In fact, the
weather conditions were said to be
worse than in 1910, when the disas-
trous Idaho fires occurred.
The total number of fires during
the season of 1914 which threatened
the National forests and had to be
handled by the protective organiza-
ton Of the Forest Service were 6112,
or 1000 more than in 1910. OF this
6112 fires 81 per cent were extin-
guished before they had covered 10
acres. The percentage that burned
over more than 10 acres was smaller
than in any previous year.
The most serious of these fires &C.
Cured in Western Montana, North
ern Idaho and the Pacific Slope. In
the central and southern Rocky
Mountains conditions we're more nor
nal and only Is per cent of the total
number of fires occurred in this re-
gion. A preliminary estimate shows
that the total loss of merchantable
timber will probably not exceed
100000. In 1910 the correspond
ing estimate was nearly SIS, 900,
although later estimates materially
reduced this amount.
1t is estimated that the value of
the timber threatened and saved in
Idaho and Montana alone aggregates
over $4,000, 900. In Oregon and
Washington experts estimate the
value of timber saved at $24 900.
This does not include the value of
non-merchantable timber, young
growth on about 100000 acres of
land, or several million dollars
worth of ranch and other private
property which lay in the path of the
threatening conflagrations.
The figures given represent the
number of fires reported up to De-
cember l. When the complete fig
Tres are in it is expected that they
will add large amounts to the total
value Of property threatened and
saved.

estry Service Items Found to Be of Interest
Wood Flour Turns Waste
Sawdust Into a Profit

IN its efforts to attain complete
. utilization of our forest products,
the Federal Government has been
making inquiries into the possibili-
Ties OF manufacturing wood flour
from sawdust waste.
The flour in question is not the
KIND which is converted into fluffy
biscuits or flaky pastry, nor is it a
substitute for cornmeal, although it
looks somewhat like it. This wood
flour is made by grinding dry saw
dust or small wood waste (that of
pine or spruce is excellent for the
purpose) in a cheap mill, similar to
the kind In which corn and rye are
ground. After passing through the
stones and the boiling chest it is
sacked or baled for shipment. 1t is
then worth $12 to $13 per ton.
This flour is used in making dyna-
mite and acts as the absorbent for
the nitroglycerine. Dynamite made
with wood flour as n of its ingre-
dients is somewhat inferior to that
made with infusorial earth, but it is
cheaper. The use of wood flour in
the manufacture of dynamite, how
ever, is but a minor use Of the prod
uct.
Its chief use is in the manufacture
of linoleum and xyloite, both floor
coverings that are very popular for
use in kitchens, halls, corridors,
cafes, restaurants and public rooms.
1t is impervious to water and prac-
tically %fireproof. 1t is also used as
floor material on some of the Ger
man war vessels, for 1t is not liable
to take fire or splinter II hit by
shells.
The manufacture Of wood flour is
already an extensive industry in Eu-
rope. Norway has been m%anufactur-
ing it for years and exports thou
sands of tons. Germany also is a
large manufacturer. England and
France are extensive buyers.
In the United States the matter of
wood flour has not as yet been given
much consideration. A few mills in
the Middle West and one at Ho-
GUAM, Wash, are all that have at
tempted to transfer their wood waste
into wood flour. The amount of
sawdust to be had in this country,
especially In the Northwest, is un-
limited and lumbermen should well
come this method of turning their
waste into a practical and profitable
product.

It's a story as old as the ocean,
AS fresh as the tear-like dew.
Last night like a transient notion
There came to me love Of you.
Shall l tell you the secret my heart
cries?
Shall whisper the music I feel?
Shall I vince or evince in my heart
signs
Something you know will be real?
Shall ! tell you just how much I love
you?
Whisper your name in my dreams?
Shall ! bless you, caress you and love
you,
Till everything only seems?
Shall ! pay for your kiss with a mil
Fertilize Joy with a fear?
Is my love star to be a parhelion,
Ny song to be only a tear?
Last night, dear, l knew you were
thrilling
Oh, how your smile made me glad.
Last night, love, my heart was in
stilling
Joy that will make my soul sad.
I closed tight my eyes in my fancy;
l drifted alone with you
To an island Of dear necromancy
Where always our dreams come true.
You told me the story of Esther;
You told me the old tale Of Ruth.
Is love but a whimsical Jester?
Surely this JOY is a truth.
Your eyes shone a love unaffrighted;
The. lulled me to silence and bliss.
If peasant were ever be-Knighted
You made me a King with your kiss.
