1920 his batting average dropped tc .S3i.
 When Hans Wagner retired from the major leagues with total of S4S0 hits to his credit, baseball experts pre- dicted that the record would survive for years. That was in 1917. Six years later Ty Coob surpasses Wag- ner's remarkable achievement.
 In piling up a total of 3430 hits Wagner required 21 years of service, 1897 to 1917. Cobb. on the other hand, passed Wagner's mark after 1g years of play, spotting the former Pittsburgh star more than 300 games.
 In all probability Cobb will play as T regular for two or three more years. While he has slowed up con, sideraby he still retains his batting eye, so it looks as if the Detroit man. ager would set a mark that would stand much longer than did that of Wagner

Il takes two years for the white pine
in the seed bed before replanting,
while cedar and spruce remain in the
beds three years. are transplated for
two more and then set out in the
prjects.
The trees cost $3.50 per thousand

McHarg, which includes collecting
the cones, the removal of the seeds,
planting in the beds, and getting
ready for shipment At the present
wage scale it costs nearly $3.50 an
acre to plant the trees which includes
transportation and altogether It costs
the government about $500 to plant
an acre Of trees.
New Growth Near Wallace
Thus far with the exception of
trees planted during very dry sum-
mers the reforestation plantations
have been very successful" said Mr.. .
McHarg. "the average of survival Of
the trees has been very high one .
