The Scranton Water Company this year set out 164 ,OOO trees and the Spring Brook Company 135,000.
 Mine owners have also felt the pinch for timbers, and they have be- come active tree planters. Fourteen different ones planted trees this year; the Pittsburg Coal Company leading with 60,O00.
 Two things impressed me especially in Professor Hicks Illuminating studies of tree culture.
 One is the relatively small number of persons in Pennsylvania who take the trouble to plant a tree-only 769 did it this year
 The other is the trifling cost of it. The state will supply the trees gratis and all the planter does is to pay for boxing and transporting them.
 One man last year planted 10000 trees and the total cost to put the trees on his land was ST.
 But interest in tree culture grows rapidly, as indicated by the fact that exactly 30 times as many persons planted tree this year. as planted one decade ago.
 A Bradford county lumberman set out 10000 trees this year. He said that his business had been the de- struction of forests and now it was going to be the recreation of forests. -"Girard's Talk of the Day." in the Philadelphia Press.
The courier-index., 1919-12-26
TREE CULTURE FACTS.

I mentioned some time ago that Prof. James s. Illicl: of our state for estry department had discovered when trees do their growing.
 Most trees gain nearly all of their growth in from 40 to 100 days in each year. They stagnate the bal ance of the time.
 Old Job said some thousands of years ago that "there is hope of a tree if it be cut down that it will sprout again."
 So it may, but that is too slow a method of reforestation in these modern times when in America tens of millions of trees annually fall to the ax. From Professor Illick learn just what the people of Penn sylvania have been doing in the way of making new forests to take the place of old ones.
 In the past decade only one tree has been planted for each inhabitant of this state.
 That, however, does not include trees planted by the state itself or the more than 100000 acres of state-owned forests.
 Private individuals or corporations have planted 9,000,000 trees, but the significant fact is that just third of them were planted this year.
 The increase in this game of refor- estation has been prodigious, as proved by these figures:
 In 1910 the number of trees planted was 66,00O, but in 1919 the number was 3,050,000, the latter be- ing 46 times as great as the former.
 Nobody else can see the practical use of tree quite so quickly as a man interested in water supply.
 Therefore, it is not surprising to learn from Professor Illick that water companies have been by far the largest planters of trees in Pennsyl- vania.
 Forty-four companies have started in this work of creating new forests to protect their water courses.

of bona fde taxpayers according to
their ruling and Judgment, so the
/ first round of the much talked of
county seat election is at an end just
for the present time. However, the
taxpayers are determined that one
man on the Board is not to have the
say as to whether or not an election
will be held, and within few days
new petitions will be prepared and
signed by a sufficient number of tax
payers which in any event will hold
good regardless of what action the
county commissioners may attempt.
A large delegation from Froid went
down to Mondak with the intentions
of attending the meeting of the
Board held last Saturday, but on
their arrival they were viewed with
suspicion and disfavor and were not
admitted into the presence of that
honorable body, County Attorney
Walton promptly turning the key in
the door. After the petition had
been disposed of in due form the
Froid delegation were advised that
there was nothing doing, and the only
thing left for them to do was to trot
back to Froid and be good.
