SURVEY OF Pine TIMBER

Alexandria, La.-HoW fast does Q

many cords OF wood win stand on an
acre Of ground at the end Of fifteen or

These and q number Of similar ques.
lions win de definitely answered, at
least for hOuisiana, when q field
party from the State Department
of Conservation completes a survey
covering most Of the second-growth
piney woods Of Louisiana. The re-
suits Of these studies, when combined
with similar studies being made Ia
ether Southern states, will be pub
lished for the use Of timber owners
throughout the South. The men now
ct work in this state are s. A. Tru-
FAINT, Jr., Of New Orleans, and w. H.
Thompson, Of OLA, LaSalle Parish.
During the past month they have been
measuring stands in Calcasieu, Beau
regard and Vernon Parishes, and are
now working out Of here. They report
surprisingly rapid growth in young
stands on old fields and cut-over land.
The growth Of virgin timber Is very
much slower.

1.-THE INSIDE OF THE CUP"
EXPOSES HYPOCRISY
Specially Supervised by Albert CaPsi-
lani, PhOtoPlay Is Based On Win.
ston ChurehiII's Great Novel :.

Said to be one of the most remark
able picture productions of the cur
rent season, "The Inside of the Cup, "
a Paramount Cosmopolitan picturiza-
ton Of Winston Churchill's famous
novel, will be shown at the Magic
City Theatre, Friday July LIST.
When this book was published in
1918, its exposure of hypocrisy
among wealthy churchgoers, provoked
bitter criticism by the clergy Of
England and this country. The hero
of the story, as in the picture, is the
rector Of a fashionable church, who
becomes Disguised with certain ele-
ments Of his flock and severely ar
raigns them for their shame and hy-
pocricises.
Director Albert Capellani, how
ever, has paid more attention to the
dramatic features Of the story than
to the philosophy which makes the
book almost unforgettable. The
scenes are thrilling and the heart ap-
peal eliminating in the fruition of a
love romance, is irresistible. The
cast, headed by William P. Carleto
and Edith Hallor, is unusually large
and artistic.

New Orleans, La.-Copies Of q re-

taken by the State fOrestsrs against

Peau Of Animal Husbandry, issued
May 20, now condemns fire as "tho
worst enemy Of the spread Of carpet
grass and lespedezs," and remarks
that "the ranges deteriOrate rather
than improve so long as fire runs over
them annually" The bulletin, which
is the last word in the study Of the
possibilities Of cattle raising on piney
woods range, fatty denies that burn.

MEET IN EFFORT
To DECIDE PARK
PLANS FOR CITY
Little Headway Made at Session Of
Board With Fair People and
Mayor; Proposals Made;
Law Suit Feared

Yesterday the chlckasha park
hoard, tho directors OF the Grady
county park association with Mayor
S. c. Durbin met in an effort to
solve the problem OF putting over"
the purchase OF tho 40 acres of land
cart of the viaduct for parks. fair
grounds and baseball purposes.
A report OF the meeting states
that the fair association directors
presented n proposition from J. d
sugg. owner OF the land In which
he proposed TO sell the 40 acres Of
land for $4,000. to accept $4,000
n city park bonds at their market
value. this amount to be brought
mp to par by the payment to Mr.
Sugg by the Grady County Park as.
sociation OF the difference between
the market value and par.
II was brought out that there have
been ten lots sold to individuals out
OF the tract OF land In question, such
sales having been made several
years ago when the tract was In.
cluded in tho East Chickasha addi.
tion. The proposal from Mr.. Sugg
included the provision that he would
deliver a gooo title TO the land
and proposed that in the event he
could not acquire and deliver with
the bulk OF the tract, title to the
ten lots. that the city start condem-
nation proceedings against the lots
for park purposes, the expense Of
the proceedings to be borne by Mr..
Sugg and charged against the
amount to be paid him by the fair
association as the difference be-.
tween the market price and par of
the bonds. Mr.. Sugg's proposition
was, in addition, to give immediate
possession of the land in order that
the building Of the baseball grand.
stand and the fair buildings might
be started at once.
The propositions made seemed to
meet with approval, except that the
mayor and the park board took the
position that the city, in purchasing
the land with the title to the ten
lots involved, might be getting the
city into law suit through the
condemnation of these lots.
