SOWING TREE SEED IN SNOW
National Forests of the Country Are
Planted Each Year to Make
Bare Land Productive.

To keep the national forests of the
United States, which are scattered
from Alaska TO Porto Rico, up to
standard, 10000 to $4,000 acres have
to be refOreSted or planted each year.
The bare lands must be made produc-
tive and the thin stands of wood must
be improved. To do this requires an
immense amount of labor.
Companies of men travel over these
forests, sowing the seed broadcast over
the snow in the various barren Sec
tiOns. AS the snow melts the seed
sinks deeper and deeper and when the
snow disappears entirely the seed is
already covered over with sufficient
dirt to give it bed in which to grow
The chief disadvantage Of the meth
cd, according to a contributor to one
of the scientific publications, Is that
the seed is conspicuous on snow and
likely to be eaten by birds. After
few days of sunshine it soon disap-
pears from view.

CharlemaQne Was a German.

According to his friend and secre-
tary, Qharlemagne was full-blOoded
German, an Austrasian Frank, with
yellow hair, fair skin and large, keen,
blue eyes. He was unusually tall, but
exceedingly well prOportioned and
graceful, so that his great height did
not at first strike the observer. His
appearance was always manly and
stately, and his cOuntenance, open and
cheerful, but, when reused to anger,
his eyes blazed with a fire that few
men cared to stand. He was fond Of
all forms of exercise and during most
Of his life was amazingly strong. He
was temperate in eating and drinking.
He spoke Latin as fiuently as his ma
tive German and understood Greek
when it was spoken. Late in life he
learned to write but was never able
to do much more than sign his name.
In his age, however, he was an edu-
Gated man. At table he liked to have
some one read to him and was very
fond Of history. He surrounded him
self with scholars and encouraged edu-
cation. He Is clasSed as one of the
most remarkable men that ever lived.

JUSTICE ONLY DEMANDED.

The Mooney case has been one of
the most bitterly fought Cn record
There has been an unending attempt
to cloud main issue, punishment Of
guilty parties, with sentimental
slush and efforts to create class hat
red by plea that orgaizned wealth was
trying. to "get union labor"
The trial brought out the fact that
principals in the case were connected
with leading anarchistic movements
and advocated violence to win con-
tentions.
The Russian anarchistic element
is trying to substitute intimidation
and violence in America for orderly
court procedure California public
officials and courts are to be given
great credit for their courage in car
rying these cases through under con-
tinuaI threats of death and destruc-
tion.
The reputation of California is at
stake in bringing to justice the muir
derers of ten people and injurers OF
fifty. All the people of California
ask is punishment OF the guilty and
this they do demand through their
legally constituted courts.

Sounds Battling Science.

Mystery still attaches to certain ex-
plosive sounds, heard In various parts
Of the world and known to science as
'brontides." On the coast Of Belgium,
says Popular Science Monthly, these
sounds seem to come from the sea,
and are called locally "mistpoeffers." :"
In the Ganges delta of India similar
sounds are called "Barisal guns"
Brontides are we'll known In some
parts Of Italy, where they bear great
variety Of names In Hayti sound Of
this character Is known as the "gOuf-
fire." while In parts of Australia it is
called the desert sound" BrOntides
mostly take the form of muffied deto.
nations, of Indefinite direction. Prob
ably they are of subterranean origin.
Studies Of eccentricities In the trans
mission of sound through the atmOs-
phere lead TO the conclusion that some
Of the sounds hitherto reported as
brOntides were really due to cannonad-
Ing or blasting.

Fine Example for Others.

Christian Science Monitor. A definite
minimum wage was fixed for the work
ers, and they were given shares which
carried full voting powers at company
meetings. Both men and women en-
jOyed this privilege. Ruskin, on hear

AUTOS IN WINTER
Help Starting Device by Providing
Rich Gas Mixture.
How Antifreezing Solution Should BE
Fed Into Radiator - Proportions
Will Depend Largely Upon
Temperature.

Every year motorists find themselves
overlooking the fact that Jack Frost
is no respecter of persons and automo-
biles, and that he will go out of his
way to pay his respects to the radi-
ator and congealing the water therein
and in the water jackets of the cylin-
ders-cause a pretty repair bill and
a week or more.
The first fall of snow Is no longer
viewed with alarm by motor car own
ers--it is no longer the signal for them
. to put their cars away until spring.
More and more car owners are coming
to realize that in keeping their cars in
dead storage for three or four months
every year. they are carrying an idle
investment. besides doing the car more
harm than good Disuse breeds depre.
citation as surely as does misuse.
Provides Gas Mixture.
On cold days help your starting mo.
tor by providing a rich gas mixture.
Prime the carburetor in the usual
way, or better still, choke the air in
let Not all Of the gasoline in the rich
mixture will reach the cylinder-much
of it will cOndense on the cold walls
of the intake manifold. SO you will
understand why it is wise to provide
as rich Il mixture at the carburetOr as
is possible, and the careful owner will
take this means Of removing a good
share of the burden from his battery.
Insure Against Damage.
Provide yourself with few gallons
of denatured alcohol, and when the
weather turns in decided manner
feed a little into the radiator, thus
insuring yourself against damage that
surely will come otherwise. The pro-
portions depend upon the temperature.
1t will require a per cent solution Of
alcohol to prevent freezing at q de-
grees. and a % per cent solution will
take care of the water system down
to zero. AS low as 10 below the sOlu-
ton should be 80 per cent, and If the
mercury happens to drop to - degrees
below the percentage will be 81 of al
cOhol, whereas 10 more degrees below
will require 40 per cent solution. At
present prices glycerin is out of the
question as an antifreezing agent-be-
sides, alcohol is far better and cheap
er, even if it does tend to eyaporate
easily.
Cover your radiator when car Is al
lowed to stand idle, and if it Is to re-
main in the cold for any length Of time
let it face the wind and not back up to
it. If left in the latter position the
wind has clear passage under the
car and above the drip pan to the mo-
tor
1t requires no more effort to do
things correctly than 1t does to do
them wrongly, and lack Of understand
ing is the only barrier. Watch the lit

ONE OF WORLDS GREAT MEN
Johnny Appleseed, Responsible for
Many Orchards in Wide Range, Will
Not Soon Be Forgotten.

John Chapman's name occupies an
important place in our American his
tory, for he is known as Johnny Ap-
pleseed, the Apostle of Apple Grow
ing" More than hundred years have
passed since Johnny Appleseed scat
tered apple seeds throughout a wide
range of territory from Pennsylvania
to the Mississippi country, and in hu-
mility, yet his name has been immor-
talized, and we of future generations
will be long time forgetting the name
OF this great father of the modern
apple growing industry, the Christian
Herald states.
Johnny Appleseed was born in
Springfield, Mass, in the year 1875,
eventful In American history in more
ways than one. About the year 1901
he emigrated from Massachusetts, join
Ing those forces starting for the un-
known western country.
In the territory between Massach
settS and Ohio and as far as Indiana,
Mr.. Chapman was a familiar figure
He foresaw the tide of migration GO
ing to the West, and seeing the need of
fruit, devoted his life to it's culture
Gathering all the apple seeds he could
secure in his native state he would
make long trips west, planting the
seed and supplying the scattered set
tiers with enough to provide them with
dependable orchards The result was
thousands of producing apple orchards
throughout this vast territory.

Chanqinq Auto Tires.

In changing tire take the precau-
tion to run the hand carefully around
the inside of the casing in search Of
sharp objects which may puncture the
tubes. Very frequently slow leaks are
caused by picking up loose nails or
tacks; the head prevents the air from
coming out of the casing at the pune

speech in the reichstag continuing the
discussion of the war aims of the bel

situation, in the opinion of high Off
Gals here
Instead of marking an advance to-
ward peace, it is regarded rather as
deliberately calculated 10 strengthen
the hands of the German militaristic
party by endeavoring to convince the
German proletariat of the impractical
bic nature of President Wilson's aims
as disclosed in his most recent address
TO congress on February IL.
While stating his readiness to ac-
cept the presidents four fundamental
principles for a basis of peace, Count
Won Hertling dismissed them as ideal
istic and unavoidable by insisting that
they must depend for their application
upon the realization of conditions
which cannot be met.
In the official view his treatment of
the subject was irOnical and designed
Tor very different ends than the adj
vancement of peace.

aspirations. Experience has taught of
