Forest Notes.

The increase in the demand for pot
ash has resulted in a number of in
quiries of government officials concern
inging the amount of this chemical
contained in wood ashes which may be
available at sawmills operating ca the
national forests.
The waste product of sawmills in
the United States including that fed
to the furnace as fuel is estimated to
be 100000 cords per year, and the
equivalent of 2,S80000,000 cubic feet
of solid wood substance. About half
of 1t has no use whatever but is usu-
ally burned to get rid of it.
The chestnut blight has already
done damage estimated as close to
$50, 100000. The disease attacks both
American and European species but
does little damage to those from Japan
and China. Plant breeders by crossing
japanese chestnut and native chinQua-
pin have produced resistant trees.
Some of the Chinese ehestnnts are
said to grow 100 feet high IN their
home forests.
The annual losses of livestock on
the national forest ranges of the. West
due to predatory animals are. over
100000. An organized campaign IS
now going on to extorlninate these ami
mails. Wolves are responsible for about
20 per cent of the cattle losses, while
bears cause most of the remainder. APP
proSimately IS per cent of the sheep
losses are due to coyotes, two per cent
to bears, aud five per cent to lynxes
and wild cats. Mountain lions are
charged with killing only few head
of cattle and sheep.

man IS rampant. He has settled down
on all Of New England like a deluge
Ills sugar coated oratorv fills us with
delight and the perfume of his mint

He has a line of Chiclet Chatter
which is calculated to put stop to
all the war talk and clear ND the

mate mission is to drive indigestion
and dyspepsia into the Atlantic ocean.
Before the American ChicIe Co. the
largest chewing gum producing COM
bination in the world, turned him loose
upon New England, 81 strong. the
chewing gum man was schooIed in the
highest branches of the art of gum
selling. His classroom was the Met
ropolitan Life Tower, uIder the big
clock of historic Madison Square, New
York, where are located the executive
Office of America s famous chewing
gum kings.
For months he was drilled for this

By BRYAN MORSE.

The conviction Of three athletic fields
within the next year and the contem-
plation OF another modern plant in the
vicinity Of Washington hold high hopes
for tho best development OF sports In
this section of the country. Tho new
stadium Al Central High School
will be turned over as early az possible
after the start OF school in the fall.

project at Rockville, Nd, may be In
use for the youngsters next year. Ac-

OF the hnest athletic plants In the coun-
try II the legislature is generous enough
to put through a bill now pending;
will be able to boast a modern field ana
a new gymnasium as good as the best
The Maryland Aggies have had no ia
fire there, and athletic activities have
been confined to outdoor work.
According to those interested at Col
leEe Park the bill pending has every
stood that $4,000 will be spert for the
project The compilation of this field
will boost the athletic game az the
state institution more than eyer:

will be benefited by the contemplated
changes which Washington mas looked
forward to for many years.

morning to close up the business. The
circuit has enjoyed a successful season
both financially, and as far a competi-
ton was concerned The league Off
Gals will get together at the residence
OF DR.. William b. Hudson. president of
the league.
The fact that four of the high school
teams now in the circuit are expected
to withdraw to form a league of their
own is not expected to interfere with
the circuit next season. st. Adams and
the Army and Navy Props will probably
invite Georgetown Props. Friends, Con-
