DEPARTMENT OF FORESTRY
TELLS OF COUNTY UNITS
Report Issued For Fiscal Year
Carries Descriptions of Land

In the report of the State Depart
ment of Forestry, University of Mary
land, for the fiscal year 1927, there is
description of the four Garrett coun-
ty forest reserves and a short article
on the chestnut blight which may be
of interest to readers of The Republi-
can.
"The four Garrett county forests
are located at an elevation of about
$500 feet They consist almost en-
tirely of hardwoods, principally oak,
chestnut and maple, with a number
of other species in smaller proper.
ton. The Harrington Manor forest
contains about three hundred acres Of
virgin timber, mostly white oak OF
large size and forming heavy stands.
During the past year there have been
no fires in the Garrett county forest;
in fact the fire danger since these
forests were acquired nearly twenty
years ago, has been almost negligi-
BILE except in the small detached Kind
ness Forest.
"a new telephone line from Her.
rington Manor to the lookout tower on
Shaggy Mountain, some three miles
away, has been built, thus giving a
direct connection with the main tele-
phone line, taking the place of an old
indirect line that has been abandoned
and furnishing added protection to
the State forests.
Fire lines have been established,
trails opened, campers accommodated
and the forests maintained in pro-
ductive condition for timber produc-
ton, watershed protection and recrea~
ton In addition to the 2,737 acres
in the four forests, the use of an adj
ditional 600 acres at Swallow Falls,
belonging to the Grand Lodges of
Masons of Pennsylvania and West
Virginia, is used by the Department
Of Forestry under a cooperative
agreement and here designated as an
auxiliary State forest.
Chestnut Blight Destructive
"The chestnut blight, which has de-
stroyed practically all of the chestnut
timber in the eastern and southern
parts of the State, is now doing its
deadly work in the chestnut forests Of
Garrett county with no hope of abate'
ment In another five years it does
not appear likely that there will be
any chestnut left in Maryland free
from the attack. The blight is now
doing serious damage on the Skip
nish and Brier Ridge forests. The
scarlet oak in the Garrett county for
ests has for the past five years suf-
fered from a fungus disease that has
killed a large percentage of that
species"

GLASS HOUSES IN THE
SENATE

(From the Cumberland Daily News)
Senator Curtis found it necessary
the other day to invoke against Sen
ator Bruce of Maryland and Senator
Black of Alabama the senate rule that
state of the Union may not be re-
ferred to in an offensive manner in
debate. The point of order was we'll
taken; Mr.. Bruce had been picking at
Alabama and Mr.. Black had been
picking at Maryland, and neither had
been convinced that their respective
criticisms were just: the recrimina-
lions therefore were simply wasting
the senate's time, as all such always
must.
If the nagging senators would give
thought to the point they would recog
nize that the rule cited by Mr.. Curtis
is soundly based. 1t is necessary be-
cause Alabama and Maryland, and all
the other states, are so palpably open
to criticism on numerous grounds that
they all have to be protected under
the principles of tolerance. Mans
fallen nature is such that in no state
in the Union or elsewhere in the world,
has he been able to build up society
that cannot be picked at. We think it
very likely that some of Mr.. Bruce's
structures on Alabama are supportable
by evidence, and that some of Mr..
Blacks indictments against Maryland
are true. 1t is human also that Mr..
Black should repel Mr., Bruce's charges
and defend Alabama as a common.
wealth peopled and administered by
angels, while it is no less natural that
Mr.. Bruce should represent his state
as being the perfect flower of an I'M
blemished and fawless civilization.
Both gentlemen are wrong. Their
respective states probably are no bet
ter and no worse than others, ami
when they say they are proud of them
they probably are just using a figure
of speech. 1t is because they are
aware that there is much in their
states that they cannot be proud of
that they are so ready to uncover the
shortcomings of others; it is soothing
to their feelings to discover faults
away from home, and anyway attack
is often better strategy than defense.
But the point is that attack is so
easy that something has to be done
to head it off, and the senate rule in
voked by Mr.. Curtis is evidence of the
recognition of this fact; it is plea i'll
avoidance. 1t is an admission that our
social organization everywhere re-
mains very imperfect, and that while
we are trying to make it better Gan
effort in which the senate is supposed
to be cooperating, though of course it
really hasn't much time for it), the
common object can best be served by
refraining from nagging.
Probably it. will be long time be-
fore all the states are so cultural,
spiritual and otherwise so fully par.
takers in the perfection Mr.. Black and
Mr.. Bruce claim for their own, that
it will be safe to abrogate the senate
rule framed for the common defense,
When that time comes, if it does,
the states will be so free of human
frailties that they probably won't even
need any senators at Washington. But
that state of perfectibility probably
will not be ours to see, and the best
we can hope for it that senator's will
not take themselves TOO seriously and
will nag each other as little as is
humanity possible.

habitants through the population es- inmates made public today by the census bureau at Washington. These figures presented an estimate of 7ss.e 200 for the city of Boston as of July 1. 1928.
 Could Be Lsrgcs If Boston had followed the ex- ample of nearly every other metro polls in the country and had gob- bled up all it's adjacent territory it would have added to his population the 49:.200 estimated by the bureau for the cities Of Cambridge. Somer- vile. Chelsea. Everett. Newton and Quincy and the town of Rrookline. It would also have the 77.ss4 credit ed to the state census of 1925 to the towns of Watertown. Winthrop. Ded- ham. Milton and Needham. These would swell it's total to l,s6S,794.
 Work tn lsostOn
 The great ma Jority of the residents of all these suburbs have their busi- ness or professional interests m Boston and are regular commuters. The same is true of the residents of the outer fringe of municipalities. including the cities of Maiden, Med ford, Revere. Wattham, Melrose and WoDurn and dozen towns. whose total population. adding the new es- inmates for the four larger cities in the list to the 1925 state figures for the other places, is 3e4.650.
 Adding all these to the figures previously given places the Greater boston population at 1.693.444. This does not take into account the TO- 196 persons in Lynn, Salem and nearby towns, large proportion of whom also work in Boston, or the considerable numbtr of commuters from cities and towns further out.
 Population lncreascs
 As the population of the smaller suburbs has increased as rapidly in the last five years as that Of the municipalities which had passed the 2o,ooo mark eight years ago, and in some cities more rapidly. the methods applied by the census bureau would place the population of what Bostonians call "the real city, at close to two millions.
 The suburbs have been lined to Boston for many years in certain public services such as water. sew age and parks under the control of the metropolitan district commits sion. but they have resisted all sug- eestions of annexation Boston has not annexed any territory since it took over the town Hyde Park in 1911.
