The extent 10 which he.ton has heen

The extent to which the top mas been
injured varies from almost nothing tc
as high as 100 per cent. The killing
back of 50 much tissues above the
ground. however, cannot be likened in
all respects to the removal of a similar
amount of wood through the agency
of pruning a non-injured tree. Were
such the case the wood growth of trees
now making but feeble growth would
be tremendous. The remaining tissues
is also injured which shows why a Wig
orous growth thus far has not resulted.
Functions Are Explained
'It will be well to- explain briefly
how tree functions and what lack of
balance means. Last year the trees
had a large leaf surface which was
capable of supplying the requime-
ments of a large root system. The
root and top are said to be in balance
as evidenced by heavy fruiting and
lack of excessive wood growth. Dur
ing the latter portion of the 1913
growing season the leaf system was
manufacturing and storing up plant
food for use during the 1920 season.
This Is the supply now being furnished
by the root system without which
present growth would not be possible.
Beginning with the formation of the
terminal bud, the leaf system will
again manufacture and store plant
food for next year and the further

S|NN FEN COURT ESTABLISHED NOW;
 VOLUNTEERS HELP

Dublin, Aug. l5-The Sim Fein courts continue to ex. tend the area and nature of their operations. Among the cases lately tried have been cases of libel and slan- der, of judicial separation 'of of the unhappily married and of seduction. These were on the civil side. On the criminal side all sorts of offenses are tried. As a rule the persons charged think it safer to turn up and take their chance of punish ment. But in most cases they do not get any option in the matter. In a recent case in County Clare the person charged was a local magistrate, accused of tres pass. He ignored the sum- mons and refused to recog- nize the jurisdiction of the Sim Fein court. The Vol unteers captured him and carried him off to an un- known destination and the military are now guarding his house.
 The Sligo asylum commit tee is a real radical on Sim Fein. It has just decided that the Sim Fein flag shall be permanently flown over the asylum. They have vested in the fresh Volun- teers the task of conveying lunatics to the institution, and left the power of com hitting lunatics to the Sim Fein arbitration, assisted by a local doctor.
 Kerry County Council has decided to refuse to in- sert advertisements in the local papers unless they con- sent to publish reports in the Irish language of the Councils proceedings.

Game Warden L. F. Protz- man, whose jurisdiction was
 recently enlarged to take in
 the Nenana and Kantishna
 districts, returned to Nenana this morning from his first
 official visit to Roosevelt and
 reports much activity in the
 hills surrounding the ricn
 Aitken silver mine. The country is being given a
 thorough going over by iprospecors, he says, and a
 number of good prospects
 have been found. Only re- gently J. A. Haney, who
 negotiated the sale of the |Quigley. properties to Tom Aitken, found a prospect showing values of approxl- mately $3.OOO to the ton, and MT. Protzman has with him several nuggets which were taken from a prospect found Iby Boyd Marsh. The mug
 gets are being taken to Fair
 banks by MT. Protzman for assay, the indications being that they are a mixture of gold and silver. Marsh is a chechaco who went into the Kanishna only a short time ago, and there is reason to believe he has located a rich ledge. His prospect is close Ito the Aiken property.
