from prosperity down in our country"

the Carrara Obelisk, who is in Tono-

bright and, all In all, there aren't
many of us waiting for our ships to

now.
Prom more detailed viewpoint of
the developments taking place in
southern Nye, some points of interest
might be noted. The A. c. M. com.
pany has completed two miles of its
three-mile track from the L. V. & T..

in front of the hoist, a switchback
will carry the cars to point directly

blocks may go from the quarry floor
to the cars without rehandling. The

WEEKLY RESUME OF STRUGGLE TO WIN
1915 PENNANT IN THE NATIONAL GAME

In the American league the initial
clash between Chicago and Boston
for the leadership resulted in draw,
the White Sox retaining their grip on
the lead through the winning form
displayed by Russell in the second
game of Saturdays doubleheader.
The two clubs kept neck and neck
throughout the week, each winning
and losing the same number of games.
The fight is a pretty one but Detroit
is close behind and menacing both.
The remainder of the American
league clubs are cutting little figure.
Washington made the best showing of
any of them, redeeming past misdeeds
by winning seven out of the high total
of eleven games played.
The Federal league race was
marked during the week by the rise
of Chicago to first place. st. Louis,
which has led for some time, dropped
to third place. The relative positions
of the other clubs were unchanged
The race among the first FIVE clubs
remains close, Kansas City, st. Louis
and Pittsburg in particular being near
enough to make general first divis-
ion switch possible on short notice.

the cars will be switched by an cleo

spur on the site of the finishing plant.
At this point the blocks will be shift

finishing plants for final handling.
"The plans have just been received
for the construction of the finishing
and saving plants. The first unit to
so in, which will be installed in Sep
TENDER, will be a three-gang saw. Al
the finishing plant, the equipment will
be started by the installation of pol

borundum copers. The plants will be
built with a view to capacity increase
at any desired time
AT the upper end of the railroad
grade, considerable hard rock work
was encountered which is being car
ried on in connection with the work
This work should be out of the way

SUES CENTRAL VERMONT.
Station Agent Who Was Shot by
Assistant Wants DAMAGES

Brattleboro, Aug. 6.-The failure OF
long conducted negotiations has re-
suited in the bringing of a suit by At
| torney A. +. Schwenk counsel for for
mer Representative Herbert A. Stat
en- Of Vernon, against the Central
Vermont railroad for $4,000.
Mr.. Staten was shot on the morn,
ing of June 8, 1913, by Huge Collins
substitute station agent at Vernon
| who was intoxicated at the time and
who had been fined the day before for
intoxication, Mr.. Staten having been
one of the witnesses against him. ~
The suit is brought under section
4506 of the public statutes, which pro-
vides IF railroad corporation en-
4 ploys or retains in its service a con-
ductor or telegraph operator who re-
ceives train orders, who uses intoxi-
eating liquors as a beverage such
fact being known to the president,
superintendent or any OF the direc-
tors of such road, such corporation
shall be fined not more than $4,000
nor less than $500, and shall also be
liable for the damages which a per-
son sustains by the employment or
retention of such employee"
1t is contended in the papers that
the company was aware of the fact
that Collins used Intoxicating liquors
as beverage and yet retained him
in his employ.
Mr.. Station had gone to the railroad
station on Sunday morning, June s,
1913, to flag the northbound morning
train for Mrs. NJ. |. Reed of Brattle.
boro because and knowing of the con-
dition of Collins the day before, he
did not believe he would be in condi.
ton to do the faging. He placed the
flag in position and just before the
train arrived he babe Mrs. Reed good
bye and turned to walk towards his
home only few rods away.
Collins had been in the station and.
slipping out the rear door, he fired
twice with 3S-calibre rifle at Mr..
Staten, wouding him in the right fore.
arm and in the right hip.

MARKETING OF FARM TIMBER.
Forest Service Says Ignorance of
Woodlot Course often Costs Dearly

Forest service Says Ignorance of
Woodiot Course often Costs Dearly
The marketing of farm timber. pre-.
sents some of the same difficulties,
but in an aggravated form, that the
farmer meets In selling other crops.
says a forest service contribution TO
the Year Book of the department of
| agriculture. just issued, The farmer
finds it hard to get enough for his
timber. Most farmers now sell their
! saw timber on the stumn tn a mil,
man, such sales ordinarily being
made for lump sum. The mill man.
experienced in estimating, goes
through the woods and sizes up the
quantity and value of the timber he
wants. The owner, being farmer
and not lumberman, seldom knows
any thing about estimating timber
| and has only the vaguese idea of
what it ought to bring. The conse.
quence of this condition is that the
farmer often receives only small
fraction OF the actual market value of
his stumpage.
Astonishing examples of what a
farmer may thus throw away are Of
ten encountered by foresters, confirm
es the article. For instance a Massa-
ehusetts farmer sold million feet of
timber to a portable sawmill man for
$1,000, and thought he had obtained
a good price. His neighbor, however.
who knew something about timber.
got $1,000 for the same quantity of
white pine from the very same prot
able man. The first farmer on &C.
count of his ignorance, practically
presented the mill man with $4,000.
the second owner was wise enough
to learn before he attempted to sell
his timber how much he had and
what it ought to bring him in money.
The productive capacity of the 200
million acres of farm lands through
out the country which either have or
should have timber growing on them
Is enormous, says the article. This
area is larger than all the national
forests put together, and with an an.
nual growth of 200 board feet per
acre of saw timber--a moderate nj.
lowance under the practice of fores.
try-ft would produce annually for
ever about 40 billion feet, or the eoui.
valent of the entire lumber cut of the
country, In addition to not less than
100 million cords of firewood. III
These figures, continues the article
never will be recalled, for
the reason that the present area of
farm woodlands is much larger than
it will be eventually. For example.
woodland comprises 81 per cent of
the entire farm area of the South.
and undoubtedly much Of this land
will be put to other uses than timber
growing. Nevertheless, the farmers
of the United States now own at
least $50 billion feet of saw timber
and one and one-third billion cords of
cord wood, and this timber should
produce a substantial part of their
incomes. Farmers ought to make the
most of their timber and the public !
should be interested in this question
for the reason that the vast aggregate
of farm timber shiuld be available to |
and other sources of the !
general supply. y

After that amount - taken Ia at the
