STORIES OF BROKEN GLASS
DON'T STAND INVESTIGATION

Stories of broken glass having been
found in yarn and gauze have come
to us occasionally, says the Red
Cross Bulletin of Seattle. In one in
stance upon investigation it was
found that one of the women had
unknowingly broken the crystal of
her wrist watch while making sur
gical dressings This week another
chapter reported finding broken
glass In case of yarn A survey Of
the packing box developed the fact
that 1t was marked clamp chin
neys. The chapter decided to use
30 per cent common sense and gave
out the yarn. deciding that the box
had not been thoroughly cleaned be-
fore shipment was made. A little
investigation of this kind Will often
save a lot of useless worry.

Rich Mining Region.

Because of increased interest in meta
mining at the present time, requests FOL
statistics and reports on mining regions
are much more numerous than IN normal
times. The geological survey, depart
ment of the interior, announces that II
has ON hand few copies of bulletin
574 on the mining districts of the Dillon
quadrangle, Montana, and adjacent areas
The area described in this report was
of great importance in the early develop
ment of Montana, for it was the dis
covery of gold in the streams of this re-
gion that led to the influx of population
and the eventual settlement of the state
The Dillon quadrangle comprises about
1900 square miles. The great Butte
copper mining district is Immediately
north of it. and two of the Butte smelt-
ers are within il.
The first important discovery of pre-
cious metal in Montana was made at
Bannock, in 1852 and the placers of Ban
mock are reported to have yielded in that
year 10000 in gold. A far greater
Strike was made the next year at Alder
Gulch, the discovery causing an extra
ordinary rush of gold seekers, which led
to the founding OF a number Of towns
on Alder creek Alder Gulch is the long
est and richest gold bearing guleh ever
found in Montana. and within the first
20 years its gravels yielded more than
s30O00.000.
Placer mining has been going on more
or less continuously ever since the early
days. and in late years modern methods
Of attacking the gold bearing grsvels
have been introduced. Dredges now han
die the gTavels Of Alder creek, and the
gold output Of this feet Of dredges is
larger than the total from all the mines
in the region.
The metalliferous mineral resources OF
the Dillon quadrangle and adjacent
areas include gold, silver, copper, and
lead. and smaller quantities Of zine. iron-
manganese. and tungsten. The report
discusses their distribution mode Of
occurrence. geologic features. and origin
The metallic ore deposits Of the region
occur IN about 80 more OF les weii-de-
fined districts. which are described in
diridually.

STANDING TIMBER TAXATION.
To Be Treated as Personal Property
When Sold without Real Estate.

At the listers meetings held In the
several counties throughout the state
during the last month, the commission
er of taxes discussed the question Of the
taxation of standing timber which has
been sold and conveyed without the real
estate on which it stands, It appears
from what he said that this class of
property is not real estate, but person
al property This interests not only
the owners of such property and the list
ers who have to appraise its value, but
sheriffs, constables and policemen who
in the service of writs are making at
tachments of property
Mr.. Plumley said: standing timber
that has been sold and conveyed with
out the land is to be taxed and set in
the list to the owner. 1t is to be set in
the list. not as real estate, but as per
sonal property and there shall be no de
duction, no offset, as against such prop
ertv on account of debts owing. BY ex-
animation of section No. l1s OF the gen
eral laws (section 500 j. 81 you Will
see that YOU will find if you examine
the 9th Vermont, 1876, and the s9th
Vermont, 20l-2l0, that our supreme
court has fatty held that the convey.
ance of growing trees tstanding timber
to be removed within specified time,
works in law a severance of the trees
from the real estate, and converts the
trees into personal property
I'm the case of Deerfield Lumber Co,
VS.. Lyman, s9th Vermont, 20l-2l0, a
deed under consideration did not def
nitely specify the time within which
the trees should be removed from the
real estate. The court went even fur
Their than it had gone in any prior de
cision and said in substance that the
deed under consideration plainly did not
intend that the timber should remain
upon the land for an indefinite time and
therefore it should be removed within a
reasonable time, and this kind of deed
the court said worked in law severance
of the timber from the freehold and
converted it into personal property.
IF you will stop to think you viii see
the sound reasoning and common sense
on which this proposition is based. The
timber, growing, has been sold. The real
estate has not been sold. If the real
estate has not been sold then the man
who bought the trees has bought some
thing other than real estate, Yes. He
has bought the standing timber, which
not being real estate is personal proper
tv and must be set in the list as such
Bv the sale the trees are severed from
the real estate as effectually as if cut
off the soil.

GARDEN THRIFT.
Plots for the Campaign Should Be Che
sen with Care.

Many backyard gardens were disap.
pointments last year because they were
planted under conditions that made sue
cess impossible, even with best of cul-
tural methods. II is a waste of time
and energy. which might well be spent
in some more profitable endeavor, to try
to grow garden plants unless there is a
fair chance to succeed. The following
suggestions for the selection of the gar
den spot offered by the extension serv-
ice of the University of Vermont and
state agricultural college are timely;
/. The soil, first of all should be work
able Soils filed with cinders, brick
bats. coal ashes, tin cans, etc, should Ell
Their be cleared of this rubbish or not
planted Filled or graded areas general.
" are not OF good garden soil
g The drainage must be good. II wat
err does not run off the plot readily dur
ing a heavy rain or standing water can.
not be removed from il easily through
surface drainage, il il not suitable for
a garden.
g. When the spot proposed for the
garden does not receive sunlight for a
fair portion of the day, il is useless to
attempt to grow vegetables.
L. Where poultry is kept is no place
for a garden unless one or the other IS
wei snced.
Give the children fair chance. Do not
invite disaster at the outset by an un-
wise choice Of garden area. When the
garden can be worked by members of
the household during their recreation
hours or with a little extra effort above
their normal occupation, no better out
let for patriotic service for every mem
Der of the family can be found. Chill.
dren will take great deal of interest II
a portion of the garden is allotted TO
them and each one is given his or her
own part to work. Their produce may
be purchased by the parents and the
proceeds used by the children to pur.
chase thrift stamps. Garden thrift and
stamp thrift should make a good cou-
pie.
f. H. Abbott, county agent for Wash.
ington county, will soon have several
bulletins dealing with the home garden,
which he will be glad to furnish with
out charge upon request.
