GIeanInu the Stunws.

The rapid decrease in the number Of
tall stumps which have been so IA
millar to the traveller through the coast
hills of Oregon, is regarded as an in
dication Of their approaching extinc-
tion. Hitherto some 20 feet Of each
stump has been left standing, silent
relics of former monarchs Of the forest,
too thick for most saws to compass
and too full Of pitch to suit the saw
mills. But now the need for timber Is
greater and men no longer climb high
up on to boards thrust into notches In
the trunk to suit the saw and the saw
mill. They have learned thrift and
they cut low down lest good lumber
be uselessly wasted, Only as a record
of past wastefulness are the tall
stumps with their deep notches still
visible.

GOOD WORK WITH CAMERA
Explorers In Northwestern Canada
Have Photographic Studies Of
Wilderness Wild Life.

After a three years hunt with the
camera in the almost unknown Laird
river district In northwestern Canada,
II. A. Stewart and John Sonnickson
have come back to civilization by way
Of Peace river, Alberta, bringing sew
eral thousand Photographic studies Of
the manners and customs Of the wild
life Of those remote woods and
streams. The explorers, for they well
deserve the name, worked into the
wilderness by way Of Hudson's Hope
and the forks of the Findlay and
Parsnlp rivers as far as Fort Gra-
hame. Their negatives illustrate the
habits Of the ptarmgan, moose. beav
er, Canadian wild geese and other an
imals and birds that have seldom been
observed with anything like thorough
ness by means Of the camera. The
travellers had devices Of various sorts
whereby their subjects were enticed
to spots upon which the hidden lenses
were focused; and upon reaching
these spots an amhuShed camera man
snapped" them by twitching long
cord attached to the lens shutter A
single negative Of some specially shy
animal was often the only fruit Of
many hours of patient waiting. Some
times for days the explorers would
watch a single spot through their field
glasses awaiting the favorable mo-
ment to "shoot." But II was all
worth 1t.

WOOL IMPORTS DOUBLED

Imports of wool during the five
year prewar period, 1910-1914, aver
aged 2O7, ,5S3,742 pounds annually, or
something less than half the present

pounds, or more than double the pre-
war average. From January to Aug
ust, inclusive, Of the present yeat
(eight months) more wool was i'm
ported than during any of the prewar
years mentioned, and if the present
average monthly imports of 36,23S,-
9S2 pounds is maintained throughout
the remaining months Of this year,
the United States will import more
than 100000, 900 pounds during the
present calendar year.

JAPANESE FORAGE IN
TRODUCED

Kudzu, a native forage of Japan,
has been successfully introduced into
the United States, and according to
specialists of the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture, it is forage
which merits extensive use on the
heavy clay hillsides and otherwise
neglected land Of the Southern States.
Kudzu prospers in the eastern part
of the United States, particularly
south ward attaining luxurious
growth where the summers are warm
and moist. 1t is largely used for or
namental purposes in most of the
Southern States, the decorative vines
often climbing to height of 60 feet
or more.
The Japanese utilize kudzu on
rough, rocky hillisdes which are too
steep to be cultivated, the fiber Of
the stems being used to make grass
CLOTH" an article of commerce, while
portmanteaus are also manufacturer
from this fiber. The kudzu roots
are rich in starch, which is used ex-
tensively in making cakes and
noodles. They also make hay from
the kudzu vine, it being great deli
cacy for sick horses, as they will eat
the kudzu readily when they refuse
other feed.
Fields in northern Florida, when
we'll established, have yielded three
cuttings of hay a season and as high
as 10 tons an acre. Under favorable
conditions kudzu is profitable crop,
notwithstanding the fact that its per-
ennial nature does not permit of its
being used in rotation.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS AND STOCKNEN

value Of sun-flower as ensilage and
cited the case Of J. P. Gillespie Of
LOstine, who is now feeding his sun
flower silage. Before opening his
silO. Mr.. Gillespie was feeding alfal-
ia. hay and bran, and his records
showed butter fat cost 81 cents a
pound to produce. When he started
feeding silage, he reduced the hay
ration one-half and cut out the bran
altogether. His cows have increased
their production Of milk. and the feed
cost has been reduced to 81 cents per
pound Of butter fat. This shows a
saving, or profit, of 80 cents a pound.
With such profits, Mr.. Hoke con-
tends that the cost Of the silo is not
to be considered, as it will pay for it
self in a few months. He predicts
that in five years there will be a silo
behind every barn and that the sun.
flower would be the emblem of Wal
Iowa county.
Mr.. Hoke also spoke on the value
of sulphur as an aid to increasing al
falfa production.
