OFFERS NEEDED INFORMATION
FOR OWNERS OF WOODLANDS

In response to widespread demand
for fundamental and practical informa-
ton on forestry presented in untechnical
language, the United States Department
OF Agriculture recently published Depart
ment Bulletin 1868, Forestry Lessons on
Home Woodlands.
This bulletin is in the form of lessons
for school use; but it contains wealth
OF up to- date information on the princi-
pies and practice of forestry that will
meet also the requirements of the farmer
and the general public The farmers of
the United States own more cumberland

put together, and the prope. handling of

other information of practical value may
be gained from the bulletin by farmers
and woodland owners generally.

THE BUYERS TURN

The markets have been in the sellers
favor for long time, but the buyer has
regained the position of advantage. Sell
ers are again competing for his favor
and on the whole it is more 'healthful
situation when the buyer has choice.
All sorts of wasteful practices have de-
veloped and been tolerared because the
cost could be passed on to the buyer
and consumer. They will be searched
ont and eliminated. Nobody is as keen
after economies as the man who must
develop them to save himself from loss
Theoretical complaints are made to the
effect that goods pass through too many
hands between the producer and con-
sumner, and that there are too many para
sites upon industry. These complaints
for the most part are made without init
mate knowledge of the complicated mod
ern business organization, but such para
sites flourish in the boom periods and are
hunted out as profits disappear.
The substitution of time work for piece
work in the industries has been one cause
of high costs to which no doubt early at
tention will be given. Good wages for
honest work should be the rule, but less
opportunity for shirkers.
There will be lot of compensation for
turn in the times which compels every
body to scrutlnlze costs more closely.

good furs are fashionable and as they last
a long time, if properly worn and cared
for, the investment for them is not as
extravagant as it sometimes seems.
The standard handsome fur coat that
fits any occasion is made of the fine dyed
muskrat known as Hudson Seal. These
coats are built on modish straight lines
with deep fourteen inch collar and cuffs
of matching pelts, or in contrasting furs
if preferred.
The leading fur garment this year is a
wrap in cape form, the cape collar about
twenty-six inches in depth giving the
effect of double cape. Adjusted into a
softly draped collar that extends up
about the head it is very pretty worn as
an evening coat. Hudson Seal, mink,
Siberian squirrel and mole are the princi-
pal pelts that Shayne shows in these
beautiful garments which are ideal for
either day or evening wear.
Coiffures that bring out the shape of
the head. with the hair high at the crown
are set off with many dainty pins and
small combs, as well as with very large
delicately carved shell combs that sug-
gest the ornaments worn by Spanish
Senoritas.

The Vital Records of Belfast

Copies of the Vital Records of Belfast
have recently been received here and
placed in the Office of The Republican
Journal, the City Clerk, the Prob tie Of
flee, Register of Deeds, Public Library,
etc, for purposes of reference, through
the courtesy of State Librarian Henry E.
Dunnack, Esq.
These books contain the births, deaths
and marriages of Belfast from the earliest
times down to the year 1892. Since 1899
the vital statistic record law has required
that these vital statistics be filed at the
State House in Augusta, as we'll as kept
in each town. Hence it is not necessary
to preserve the later records in printed
form.
Volume of the Vital Records of Bel
fast contains the births from Revolution
airy times down to 1892, and is volume
of 2l3 pages 1t was published in 1917.
Volume II contains the marriages and
deaths for the same period, comprises GIL
pages and was published il 1919.
The expense of printing these valuable
books is borne by the State DR.. Alfred
johnson, who is a member of the COM
mittee on publication appointed by the
Maine Historical Society, is the editor of
the Belfast records. A period of several
years Wds iequlIeu, together Will lllc
voluntary assistance of Mrs. j. c. Dur
ham and number of local antiquarians,
to collect copy and arrange the records
from the old town and church books,
family Bibles, ETC., and from the grave
stones in the various cemeteries in the
city and it's vicinity.
The records of other towns are already
arranged for printing and the publication
will proceed as fast as the appropriation
will allow. This important step toward
collecting and preserving in permanent
form before they are lost, the early rec
ords of our State, has received powerful
impetus from the interest taken in it by
State Librarian Dunnack, who has done
so much during this centennial year to-
ward making the history of the State of
Maine known to her sons and daughters,
both within and without her borders.

Lieut. Alvin NJ. St John. former res ident and well known here was killed Friday at Kelly Field, San Antonio, Texas when the DeHavii3and plane in which he was flying crashed into a flag pole. The report Of Lieut.. St Johns death was received here yes terday by Mrs. James E. Gillespie of this city.
 brief paragraph telling of the ac- cident at Kelly Field and the death of the young aviator was in The Repub- lican yesterday morning The dis patch gave Lieut. St. Johns home as Memphis. Tenn, ana 1t was not learned until yesterday that the airman was a former Phoenix boy
 Lieut. St. John was g years old, and one of the youngest air service off cers at Kelly Field where he was con- United States army. He has q host of friends in this city, where he lived for a number of years before cnlisting in the aviation section of the army. when the call came for volunteers in the war with Germany.
 Won High Place As Airman
 On account of his small stature and slight frame, Lieut.. St John was re- peatedly rejected at recruiting sta tions. He was determined to get into the aerial forces. however. if grit. per- Sistance and determination could do
 
 at the Benoist School of Aviation at Sandusky. O He then again applied for enlistment. this time at Memphis Tenn. and was accepted for the avia- tion service
 Lieut.. St John completed his train ing at Kelly Field with such distinc- tion as to be retained in camp as an instructor. During the activities of in tensive training of fliers to go abroad he was rated as one of the most bril- liant alrmen of the service, and at the signing of the armistice remained in the service though he received many offers from South American nations to become instructor in their respective aviation schools at large salary.
 In a. letter received by Mrs. Gillespie three days ago. Lieut. St. John stated he would remain in the army a while longer, as he had just received another promotion and was now officer in charge of advance training and chief engineering officer at Kelly Field, but that he would eventually leave the service and perhaps would be in Phoe- nix again soon.
 Was On Border Duty Because of his experience and re- sourcefulness. Lieut.. St John was en- l trusted with hazardous duty in special pilot activities on the Mexican border during the troubles there last winter. He was one of the most popular offi- cers at Kelly Field. and was held in high esteem. as is shown by the follow ing telegram received yesterday by Mrs Gillespie from the commanding officer at the field:

Encouraging features of health
work are the reduction of the death
rate in Virginia from diseases which
heretofore claimed a large number
of victims. According to figures
made public by the State Depart
ment Of Health, deaths from dip
tehria and Group and typhoid fever
were cut in half in the five year Pc
riod ending in 1913. An interesting
feature of the figures as regards
measles is that the disease was al
