WITHDRAWAL
OF Workmen from Employment
in Shops and Factories for
War Duty Are Few.
Correspondence of Associated prcss.)

Correspondence of Associated Prcss)
BERLlN, Feb. 3.--According to the
records of the sick insurance office OF
Berlin 1t appears that the Withdrawals
of workmen from employment in shops
and factories for war duty last year
were far less numerous than had been
generally believed. Especially was the
reduction slight in the youngest and
the oldest classes of men subject to-
military duty. Thus workmen between
II and 20 years old represented on
January /, 1915, 1872 per cent Of all
the names on the lists, but by October
they had been reduced only to 14.6
per cent. The reduction for the class
between Al and As years was from
S.8 per cent to rs per cent. Even for,
all the classes subject to military duty
the average reduction for the nine
months was only about three per cent.
1t is a remarkable fact that even now
the class OF young men between 81
and rs is larger than any other one in
the shops and factories Of Berlin, con-
shutting 1916 per cent of all the names
listed.

Evening Chat

Forest officers who have returned
to Washington from the southern
mountains say that, because of the
heavy rains Of the past summer, the
chestnut crop in the Southern Appa.
lachian region will be below normal,
although other mast will be abundant.
Continued rains during the summer.
1t is explained seem to prevent the
pollination Of the chestnut trees and
after rainy summer the crop is sell
dom good. Because the pollen on the
oak tree develops earlier in the sea-
son than the chestnut the acorn crop
was not affected by the later rain.
While most people do not think
about the matter one way or another,
the mast crop is of no little impor.
lance to the southern mountaineer,
say the foresters. Most or the peo-
pie In the mountains have a few head
OF hogs which Craze in the wooos and
which depend largely upon the nuts
for their food. When there Is a heavy
mast these hogs keep In good condition
in the fall. but when the mast fails
they get so thin that they justify the
term "razor-back" which is sometimes
applied to them. Chestnu,s are par.
ticularly relished by the hogs and the
mountaineers claim that the meat of
the animals which feed on these nuts
has distinctively sweet" flavor. In
some places the bacon and hams OF
such animals is highly priced and It
brings good prices. Other nuts which
the hogs find to their liking are acorns
OF white and chestnut oak, becchnuts
and chinquapins.
In addition to. this use, the chestnuts
