"It's an honest movement and a

Quick Time Made

Regarding the Panama Canal,
the Los Angeles Tribune says
that something has just taken
place that tends to enlarge our
vision of the possibility of the
future. The first shipment made
by steamer sailing direct from
Siberia crossed the Pacific, went
through the canal and arrived at
New York, making distance of
10, 100 miles. Had this shipment
followed the old-time course and
gone through the Suez canal,
then crossing the Atlantic, its
course would have been 5000
miles longer, and the time of
passage, reckoning on ten-knot
vessel, twelve and a half days
longer.

General Forest Notes

Forest fires in British Columbia
covered more than 800, 600 acres
during the past year.
1t is reported that there is a
big market in Hawaii for box
shocks for packing canned pine
apple and pineapple juice.
The aboretum established at
Washington in Rock Creek Park.
through cooperation between the
forest service and the District of
Columbia, now contains 1,2OO
trees, comprising 81 different
species.
There were 400 fires this year
on the national forest of Utah,
southern Idaho, western Wyom-
ing, and Nevada, or Is more than
in the most disastrous season of
1910. Yet the cost of exiting
uishing them was only one-third
and the damage only one-thir-
tieth of that of the earlier year.
The difference is due to better
organization now, and to more
roads, trails, and telephones.
