Survey of Historic
Trees of St. Louis

st. Louis, Mo. March 2S--An un-
dortakinC to survey the historic trees
of ST. Louis and vicinity has been
hCTun by the Missouri Botanical
Garden with a report on tho Daniel
Boone judgement Tree" and Amer
lean elm. at Femme Usage, st.
Charles County, about 81 miles west
of here.
The tree stands upon Il farm which
was part of the land owned and
titled by Boone during his Missouri
residence in 1870. 1t is named tho
Judgement Tree" from the fact that
Boone. IS syndic Gudge) for the dis
trict under the Spanish rule of Lou
i3iana. was said to nave hold court
under it during the hot days of sum-
Nor.
Said TO he less known than other
historical spots in Missouri, the tree
is in an almost impossible section
and has been neglected, according to
the Gardens surveying party which
visited the spot.
An examination Of the tree by G..
II. pring, horticulturist and head of
tho party, disclosed that the tree is
rotting and that its life likely will end
within tho next dozen years unless it
is put into the care of tree surgeons.
PrnE said that If properly treated
the span of trees life. already about
80 years, may be prolonged another
century.
The tree is about 20 feet high and
has a circumference of 16 feet, 6 in
chcs.
Tho tree stands about IS feet from
tho OLD Boone home, the first stone
house in Missouri and the house in
which the famous pioneer settler
died.
Only one relic accredited a. COM
ing down from Roonc's day remains
on the farm. 1T is an old Crindstone
SAID to have been used by Boone
himself.

Carada's Growth

'bpS'cH lldnStlIH')
Complete returns of the Canadian
Geconnial census for 1921 show an
increase of the population of the
Dominion in that year to S,I69, $50
from 1,2G6.343 in ELLA gain of .l63,
146, or nearly twenty-five per cent.
Every province in tho Dominion has
increased its population except Prince
Edward Island and Yukon-the in
crease having been largest, naturally,
in the western provinces, with the
exception of Yukon. and smallest in
the cast. The rate of increase Of
population in Canada N this period
has been larger than that of the
United States in the corresponding
period, for the rate of increase IN
this country was but 149 per cent
between 1910 and 1920. However, the
great disparity between the popula-
ton of the two countries prevents
anything that might be called gain
on the part of Canada upon the
United States for tho actual nu-
merical increase in tho United States
in each decennial period is and has
always been. larger than the entire
population of the Dominion at the
time. Our numerical increase from
1910 to 1920 was 13.73S.354. We arc
adding to our population every ten
years Il greater number Of people
than the entire population of the
Dominion.
The growth of the Dominion, Just
the same. is most substantial, and
il represents a genuine national pros
pcrity. Canada has at this moment
much more room for growth than
continental United States. and its
undevelopcd western regions are at
tracing settlers from our own West
crn States. A larger proportionate
increase Of population and wealth
may be looked for in the present
decade than in the last. since the
war interrupted immigration to a
great degree, and the condition of
ovcr-population nov, prevailing in
Great Britain cannot fail to stimulate
emigration to Canada. Already the
population of the Dominion is greater
than that of the majority of Eu-
ropCan cOuntrieS-crcater than Hol-
land. greater than Sweden. greater
than Denmark. greater than Portu-
Cal, and nearly twice as great as
that of either Scotland or Ireland.
For a people already SO numerous
as the Canadians, possessing the
highest character and intelligence.
and endowed with such magnificent
resources, career of national great
ness must certainly he assured.

The bottle picked UP Saturday off
the North Carolina coast, containing
note purporting to have been signed
BY an engineer on the navy collier
Cyclops. which disappeared in 1917.
leaving not a trace, may be the correct
solution of the mystery. although too
many OF such messages have been
fakes. What gives it a plausible
sound is that it states that a German
submarine was there and the Cyclops'
crew had been ordered aboard Il,
after which the Cyclops was to be
torpedoed.

Dear Sir:
To protect the trailing arbutus
from unnecessary ravages of flower
pickcrs, the following experience OF
my own might be of interest, ana
otker papers please copy:
BY carrying the bunch of cut flow
ors in the left hand, grasped by the
thumb and first finger, and a sharp
knife in the right, one can work last
and efficiently by lifting the stems
with the right hand, graspinS same
near the blossom end with the sec
ond and third fingers of the left hand
then cutting the stem at desired
length with the knife. Be careful
never to cut toward the hand. When
the bunch is sufficiently large, tie 1t
and repeat. In this way the health
lest plants are saved for next year
instead of being torn up to die.
Yours sincerely,
A Flower Lover.

$4,000 Fire at
The Bingham House

Bingham, Nc, March 28-The
Bingham house, owned by c. W. Dut-
ton, was badly Quilted by fire Satur-
day noon. IT is believed that the blaze
started from sparks from the CHM
ney. The loss, which will amount to
$4,000 is partially covered by insur-
ance. Only good work on the part of
the local fremen saved the building
from total destruction. The fire dam
age was mostly confined to the top
floor but the water damage affected
the other parts of the building.

Dear Sir:
The Republican party is the farm
crs' party. In normal times if the
farmers vote were to break even the
country would go Democratic. When
the Democratic party OF Maine was
trying to pet over rcsubmission, and
the city returns were in, resuhmis-
sion was ahead by about ton thous-
and votes. But when the farmers
were heard from that lead was wiped
out. and the final returns showed a
ma jority opposed.
If in the recent election of Mr.
Nelson tho farmers had thought it
necessary they would have gotten
out. and would have given him a ma
iority of more than CO... Since I
believe the farm bloc never VIII ask
for anything that il unfair | am hop
ing the Maine delegation will see
their way clear to support the farm
bloc.

For the last half century, no one
knows how much longer, it has been
a by-word in Winnegance that when
the ice in the old mill pond goes out
it is a sure sign that the river ice
will commence coming down within
- hours. Winneeance people hear
all the talk. early in the season, about
the ice being about ready to come
down, but they do not put much
stock in that. they just cast an
eye at the old mill pond and say
"Mebbc," but they know that con-
ditions are not ripe for that Merry
meeting hay ice to move. Some
morning they get up, take a look
at the old pond. see that the ice
has started and then you hear some
of them saying. well. the up river
ice will start tomorrow" and that is
what happens nine times out of ten,
50 times out of 30, the old residents
will tell YOU. That was what hap
pened this year. Saturday the old
pond began to go to pieces and the
ice to leave. Then came the an
nouncement that The bay ice will
start tomorrow" and sure enough
ing ice, and the old prophecy had
again proved true.

A Portland radio phone fan, Frank
l.. Holbrook of So Munjoy street,
Sunday night received SERMON from
the Shady Avenue Episcopal Church
in Pittsburgh even before the congrc-
CATION heard it.
Radio experts explain this by COM
pairing the speed with which sound
travels with the speed of radio waves.
They say that as radio waves travel
with the speed of light or $4,000
miles n second. it is many times
greater than the speed with which
sound travels. which is in the neigh
borhood of LOO feet per second. At
that rate local radio experts claim
that Mr.. Holbrook heard the sermon
in his own home sooner than men,
bcrs of the congregation actually
present at the church.
Another strange accomplishment
achieved by Mr.. Holbrook was that
he received the sermon and entire
service without an antenna, his set
being simply grounded. The words
and music We're so clearly heard that
Mr.. Holbrook whose apparatus was
on the third floor, could go to the
first floor and hear every word dis
tinctly.
